How do I get bookmarks from 3.6.24 to 24.0

more options

Older mac 10.4.11 + firefox 3.6.24 does not have Sync. Using profile backup: I found and made a copy of bookmark-xxxx-xx-xx.json and loaded it to new mac. Firefox finds file but give an error message: "Varmuuskopiota ei voida käsitellä". Translation from finnish lange is something like: Can not handle backup file.

hello, you could also try importing the places.sqlite file from your profile backup into the current profile (which is accessible via firefox > help > troubleshooting information), it holds your bookmarks and history.
