I was not offered the ability to import from Safari during first run after install.

This is the second time I have installed Firefox on this machine. I removed the .app file and purged the Library after the first install, which was months ago. I suspect this is the cause of the problem, but I don't know how to fix it.

Places Maintenance {web link} Allows to run Maintenance tasks on the database that drives Places, the bookmarks and history module behind Firefox.

Open the Add-ons Manager. Locate the add-on and press the Options button. Select All of the tests. Then press Execute on the bottom.

The database turned out to be okay. I found the way to import from another browser by going to Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks and clicking on the star icon then selecting import data from another browser.
