The motherboard went out on my Laptop 10/20/10. A CD was made of from the Hard Drive of the Firefox Bookmarks on the old laptop. (Windows XP). New Windows 7 laptop purchased. I imported the bookmarks from the CD to Firefox on January 13, 2011. However from purchase of the new laptop (12/20/21010) to January 12, 2011 I created new bookmarks on the new laptop. The old bookmarks were not on the laptop yet. When I imported the old listing of bookmarks the newer ones were removed. I have Carbonite. I contacted them and they said they can only do one or the other. I needed to contact Mozilla for any assistance with importing both. I have the new bookmarks restored from Carbonite on my desktop. If I attempt to import them to the Bookmarks it tells me that the bookmarks currently in Bookmarks will be deleted Can I import both the old and the new Bookmarks into one listing?

You need to export one set of bookmarks to an HTML file and then restore the other set.
Then you can import that HTML file to merge the bookmarks in that file with the other bookmarks.
You can also try to copy all the bookmarks to the clipboard in the Library before restoring the bookmarks from the JSON backup. Then you can paste them back afterward.
