Does anyone know where Firefox is keeping the details about the bookmarks? For example, when I'm browsing the net and I see an interesting page but I don't have time to read it in that moment, I drag&drop it in bookmarks toolbar. They are located in ~/Library/Application Support/Firefox in places.sqlite in Profiles inside the xxxxxx.default folder. That's in your user library. Quit Firefox first, then make a copy. They can be moved into any other Firefox.
