Why are forms or passwords not filled, when I imported them from Safari?

I've used the Import function to import "saved form history" from Safari, twice already, both times it says it completed the task, yet whenever I go to a site requiring passwords or forms filled out, nothing happens, & I must manually fill everything out! Why is this not working?

The form history will not include passwords. Firefox can not access the passwords from Safari so can not import them.
