At IU, in OneStart, what is "My Bookmarks", and how do I use it?

About "My Bookmarks"

The "My Bookmarks" area in OneStart allows you to store the addresses of your favorite web pages; it is similar to the bookmarks or favorites features in your web browser. However, unlike browser bookmarks or favorites, which are stored on your computer, OneStart bookmarks are mobile. By logging into OneStart and using "My Bookmarks", you can access your favorite pages from any computer with an Internet connection.

Using "My Bookmarks"

"My Bookmarks" is located in the Services tab.

To add your own bookmarks, click manage bookmarks, and then select Add Bookmark.

To access one of your bookmarked pages, click the bookmark. The selected site will launch in a new browser window.

Importing your bookmarks/favorites

Additionally, you can use the "Import Bookmarks" feature to move your bookmarks or favorites from your preferred web browser into your OneStart "My Bookmarks" content area.

To import your bookmarks/favorites, first export them from the browser into an HTML file; see Using Internet Explorer, how do I import or export favorites or bookmarks? or In Firefox, how do I import or export bookmarks?

After you export your browser bookmarks/favorites, you can then import them into OneStart:

1. Click manage bookmarks, and then select Import Bookmarks. Browse to where you saved the HTML file of your exported bookmarks.
   
   
2. Choose the location where you want to import the bookmarks, and whether or not you want to replace the current bookmarks in that location. Click import to finish the process.
