Hi

Thank you for your question. I have done the very same thing myself and it is really easy to do.

The way I did it is in this article. Follow the instructions to manually backup the bookmarks from Firefox Release and use the same instructions to restore them into Firefox Developer Edition.

If you are going to run both Release and Developer edition in parallel, you may want to have a read of this article which will help you keep both sets of bookmarks up to date.

I hope this helps, but if not please come back here and we can look into a different solution for you.

Note that you should use a separate profile for each installed Firefox version.

See:

• http://kb.mozillazine.org/Creating_a_new_Firefox_profile_on_Windows
• http://kb.mozillazine.org/Shortcut_to_a_specific_profile

• https://developer.mozilla.org/Mozilla/Multiple_Firefox_Profiles

You can add -no-remote to the command line to open another Firefox instance with its own profile and run multiple Firefox instances simultaneously.

You can consider to use Sync to sync bookmarks between various Firefox versions.
