    How can I get 32 bit IE8 Favorites to work?
    I have 2 versions of ie8 on my Windows 7 laptop - 32 bit and 64 bit. Favorites work in the 64 bit, but not the 32 bit (where they are empty). How can I get my favorites to work in the 32 bit version..

    I don't use IE as my normal browser, but my guess is that the 32-bit and 64-bit versions do not share favorites data.

    What you can do is EXPORT the favorites from the 64-bit and IMPORT them into the 32-bit. The downside is that they are separate from each other, and therefore will not automatically stay in sync.

    The Import/Export menu is located under the File menu. If you don't see the normal menu bar (File, Edit, View,. ), press the Alt key and it should appear.

    Best of luck,
