I am trying to export all my Firefox bookmarks from a Mac Pro computer to a iPad2 table. I'm told to 1) click "Bookmarks" on Firefox's menu bar and select "Organize Bookmarks." The Library window opened as per the instructions but I am not able to take the next step 2) click on the "Import and Backup" button because that button does not appear anywhere in the Library window. 

 I am running Firefox version 3.6.15 on a Mac Pro OS X version 10.4.11.
 Is there a better way to accomplish this goal?

That button is the right most in the series. A small star with two tiny arrows chasing each other.

However, you may want to try Home, an App by Mozilla, that will allow you to sync your data from your desktop to your iPad.
