Already found solution for this... 1) For problems with using profile at older versions run firefox with -allow-downgrade. Thats all. 2) For problems with WebGL: Open about:config and set security.sandbox.content.read_path_whitelist to /sys/.

Unfortunately your profile has been updated to work with the newest version you had installed and can't work backwards, so you'll have to create a new one.
