Sadly, Xmarks will be shutting down our free browser synchronization service on January 10, 2011. Here are some details on how to transition to recommended alternative services.
What you need to know:
- Browser Sync Alternatives
While you may have to give up cross-browser sync when Xmarks goes away, there are a lot of good browser-specific sync options available:
You can also create an html backup of your bookmarks at any time by using the Export feature at my.xmarks.com.
- Service End Date and User Support
Xmarks Sync for Firefox, Chrome, IE, Safari, and iPhone will continue to operate until January 10, 2011. Email support is no longer available, but our user support forums on GetSatisfaction will continue to be a place for users to help each other.
- Uninstalling Xmarks Extensions (Sync, Thumbnails, and SearchTabs)
Instructions for uninstalling Xmarks can be found on this wiki page.
- Privacy and Your Data
We understand that you have entrusted us with the task of storing your personal browser data and we take that responsibility very seriously.
- Other Shutdown Questions
Please see our Shutdown FAQ if you have questions you don't see answered above.
- More Sync Options
If you have need of syncing more than just bookmarks between computers, here are two great services we recommend you try out. Both offer a free plan with no payment obligation.

| Evernote lets you save entire webpages, including text, links and images. It keeps everything synchronized across your computer, phone and the web. In addition to storing webpages, Evernote also allows you to take notes, store to-dos, snap photos and more. |
