i tryed to import my bookmarks from this file:

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrateur\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\x2gp6svi.default\bookmarkbackups\bookmarks.html

but it didnt work...

how can i import the bookmarks from my bookmarks folder ?? it says in the wiki it is impossible under firefox3

so what can i do...

The bookmarks.html file isn't active in Firefox 3+ versions, unless you changed a hidden preference. You need to restore one of the backups in the \bookmarkbackups\ folder in the old Profile, one of the JSON files in that folder.
