I am phasing in use of my new laptop from my old laptop; running Firefox on both. I want to copy all of my bookmarks only from my old laptop to my new laptop without deleting/loosing/overwriting bookmarks already set on my new laptop. Your help is appreciated.

Bookmarks in HTML format are appended to the existing bookmarks in the Firefox installation where they being imported.
