Is there a SAFE ad-on to export Firefox passwords and bookmarks on Mac platform?

The internet supplies lots of suggestions for exporting PW from Firefox. Some sites are no longer functional URLs (a BIG RED FLAG) and others suggest add-ons from a long list. I have no idea whether Mozilla has a preferred securer add on to export my passwords....but it would be nice to know if one exists
