Using Firefox version 34.0.5 on Macbook Pro running Mavericks. Trying to import Safari bookmarks. Go to Bookmarks - Show All Bookmarks and there is no option to import or backup. Also true for the File tab on menu bar. No option to import.

Thanks for your help.

Try using the 'import from another browser' Option in the bookmarks library. See this screenshot for an example https://support.cdn.mozilla.net/media/uploads/gallery/images/2011-09-13-12-41-00-a4555c.png

Thanks very much. I never saw the little icon button on the top of the bookmarks library screen. I was looking elsewhere.
