Chromium can't import Bookmarks and Passwords from Firefox

[Victor M]

Hi Everyone,

If you tried to import Bookmarks and Passwords from Firefox into Chromium and it doesn't work.

Open the Password in LibreOffice, and save it again in the same format. Then the import will work.

Now open the Bookmark file with Text Editor. Erase the top most 4 lines ( the Netscape line, and the Comments ) and save it. Now the Bookmarks will import OK.

Thanks for sharing this workaround! This could be really helpful for those struggling with the import issue.
