How to: migrate “real” (not Chrome) Google bookmarks from one account into another

Question

Is it possible to move Google bookmarks from one account to another? My GApps domain now allows me to use Google Bookmarks. Previously I've had to use a 'real' Google account to store these, and I want to consolidate under my apps account (and I have to, basically, since I can only have a single sign-on in a browser).

However, I can't seem to find way of moving the bookmarks. I can export them from www.google.com/bookmarks, but the 'import' link just sends me to some help which instructs me to use the Google Chrome sync.

I don't want to do that, since there are plugins that allow me to access my bookmarks from Firefox etc.

(note that this is a copy of my unanswered question on SuperUSer; I figured this was a better forum for it).

thanks, -- peter

You would have to export and then import it into Firefox. Then, use the google firefox toolbar to sync it to another google account. It's a round about way. But that's what's recommended.

If you don't want to meddle with your existing bookmarks on firefox, you might want to import them into a new firefox profile created for this purpose.
