Is there a way to use Firefox in a new mac that will allow me to keep all of the bookmarks, history, passwords etc that are stored in my old Mac/Firefox?

Where is/are this file/files? Can I copy them and then simply insert them into the fresh download of Firefox that is in the new machine?

Thank you.

PS I tried searching for the answer to this using on site and there was no solution that came up on the search. Maybe it's there but I wasn't using the right terms? This seems like it must be a common situation. Thanks again....

You won't be able to run Firefox version higher than the 3.6.x versions with PowerPC hardware.

For an unofficial Firefox 7 compatible version (TenFourFox) that runs on PowerPC Macs with OS X 10.4.11 or OS X 10.5.8 you can look at:

Firefox 3.6.x (Mac OS X 10.4 and later) can be found here:
