Hey all!
I use Chrome as my browser of choice, and today it simply will not open for more than 30 seconds or so, before it completely freezes and I have to force quit. I tried restarting my computer, didn't work. I'm thinking my only option is to completely removed Chrome from my computer and then re-install. But first, I want to save all my many bookmarks...I have been searching online and can't find a way to bring my Chrome bookmarks into Safari (use it as my backup browser), anyone here know? Thanks, I appreciate the help!

you should be able to export the chrome bookmarks to the desktop. Look in the bookmark manager.

Thanks! I knew about that, just not how to get them into Safari.

the exported bookmark file will be saved to your desktop. Once you re-install Chrome, go to Bookmarks and select import bookmarks>choose the bookmark file saved on your desktop.

with Safari, just go into File and select import bookmarks.
