Hello
I've got iPad Pro at my work and want to import bookmarks from my business PC to iPad. It’s running iOS 11 and I am not allowed to upgrade it to 12 myself.
Note that at business we use only IE hence I exported bookmarks into a file and emailed it.
Now I need to import it somehow into iPad.
Note that since it’s business device iCloud and iTunes are disabled.
Hence I need to find another option to import the file.
Appreciate any suggestions
Thanks

It came to my mind that I need to import these bookmarks into iPad Safari as well. I tried to connect iPad to iTunes on my Mac but failed because access to iPad is restricted.
Thanks

I'm not sure if IE has this feature. In Safari under the File tab you can select Export/Import bookmarks. I've used this to save my bookmarks. Maybe under File they have one? I haven't used IE in a long while at work. I would just email a batch to myself.

Or in a workplace... I would just create an email with all of the bookmarks in IE that I use. Then create a bookmark folder in Safari to export them there.
