My hard disc crashed and has been replaced and I am now retrieving data from it. Can I find and retrieve my bookmarks from the old harddisc?

The imac disc appears to have crashed. It got painfully slow and has been replaced. It appears I can pull the old data off of it to my new completely clean hard disc. But i don't know where to find the proper files to import. Is there a way to do this?

The files are stored in the profile folder. The following link shows what files you can recover by copying them to your current profile folder - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Recovering+important+data+from+an+old+profile
