I am trying to transfer all my bookmarks from firefox in my login (administrative) to my son's login firefox. I go to Bookmarks, "organize bookmarks", backup, and save as as JSON file. I then change to my son's login, enter Firefox and repeat the process, except this time I "restore". It gives me the option of which file to restore, I click on the file. It gives me the warning that it will overwrite the original files and I click "OK". Then I get "unable to process the backup file". Any ideas why this is or how I can overcome it? Thanks

This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
