I'm on a Mac with 10.7.2 I'm trying to import my bookmarks from Safari to FireFox. When I open the "file" to click on import like the instructions say there is no "import" in file. So how do I import my Safari bookmarks to FireFox ?

You can find the Import menu entry in the Bookmarks Manager (Library)

  • Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Import & Backup (third icon with star) > Import Data from Another Browser

I've tried all of that but the last step with import Data from another Browser it will not highlight and I am unable to still get my Bookmarks off... Any ideas what to do? Thanks!
