Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to improve Ubuntu. Could you please add more information for it by following the suggestions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MozillaTeam/Bugs. In particular, can you reproduce this behavior using a new profile? It isn't necessary to delete your current profile; just create a new one.

Regards,

Kurt

Thanks for the link, Kurt, a new profile did the trick ans eventually allowed me to import my html bookmarks file. I will try to delete the original default and make the 'new profile' my default.

Cushie, you need not delete the old profile to make the new one the default. Just select the profile you want and select don't ask at startup. In any event, it appears that this is resolved so I shall close this bug. Glad we could help!
