how do I transfer Firefox/Safari bookmarks. I want to put them on a second Mac that I'll keep at the office. This way, all I'll have to carry is my flash drive.

I ultimately want to transfer iCal, Address Book and my bookmarks.

Thanks.

Frank
 
Safari - File - Export Bookmarks
Address book - File - Backup address book
iCal - File - Backup Database

When doing this you should see the way to import them on your other mac.

Firefox Not sure
 
Firefox:

Bookmarks>Organize Bookmarks

Then File>Export

Save/copy/drag the .html file that's generated to the Flash device.

Plug device into second computer.

Go to Organise bookmarks on the second computer
File>import and import the .html file into the bookmarks folder there.

Done.

EDIT:

Or just install the Foxmarks extension on both machines.
