Hey guys,

Long story short, my bookmarks on the pc are gone. Corrupted and deleted.

So my years of bookmarks are on the iPhone and iPad. So how am I suppose to export them to pc.

If I sync with my iTunes then it will delete them from the iPhone and iPad. Because it considers pc's copy superior.

Please help...
 
I believe if you put one bookmark in the PC that you don't have on the iPhone, it should merge like it does other data. I cannot be sure of that since I am not at my home computer, but it doesn't always consider the PC as the main place. I have bookmarked things on my iPhone and it brings them over to the PC.

Can someone please confirm this.. Don't wanna give it a shot and lose bookmarks in the process.. :)
 
Try using firefox home app

Basically this app is designed for syncing everything from firefox on computer to any device...including bookmarks. Use it to sync everything, then delete it when done.

Being honest, I have never used it, but I use firefox on every PC and Mac and I love it. I would give this a try

If you don't use firefox on PC, thats fine, use this to transfer bookmarks, then just google import books from firefox to IE, or chrome, etc. Once you get them to the computer, you should be able to get them from browser to browser
