Editing Bookmark File
I'm new to Mozilla and have questions about the Bookmarks file.
1. I have found a number of Bookmarks files. I assume that the one with the newest date is the most recent.
2. How can I open this file to edit it? I want to do renaming and reorganizing on a broad scale and not just renaming bookmark entries one-by-one.
Thanks for any help

Have you tried the Library dialog opened with "Show All Bookmarks"?
Firefox uses a database named places.sqlite to store both bookmarks and history. Directly editing this file is not recommended (even with a good SQLite database browser).
Firefox makes backups of your bookmarks in the JSON format, which is a densely packed data file of a somewhat delicate nature. Directly editing the backup files is likely to lead to disaster.
What seems best to me is to export your current bookmarks to an HTML file, edit the file in a text editor, then re-import them. This usually imports them as a new folder on the Bookmarks Menu, where you can verify your edits and then use the Library dialog to move them up to the top level.
How to:

Does that work?
