I have been using Minefield, the beta version of Firefox 4 , in a 64 bit version. Since the final Firefox 4.0 doesn't seem to have a 64 bit version, I want to keep Minefield, but still would like to try Firefox 4.0. FF4 uses after installation automatically the Minefield profile folder, which leads to problems , mainly because both browsers are not compatible with the same versions of Add-ons. How can I keep them both but make each use its own profile folder?

You can set up the shortcuts to open the correct profile, for details of how to do that see http://kb.mozillazine.org/Shortcut_to_a_specific_profile

Thanks. I tried this and it actually works for the desktops shortcuts but when I pin the modified shortcut to the task bar and try to start either of the two firefox versions from there, the profile manager shows up and asks which profile I wanna use. Is there a way to fix this?

Right-click on the pinned shortcut to bring up the jump list, then right-click on the Firefox entry and select Properties. You can then change the target of the shortcut to include details of the profile to be launched.
