I can't import Safari bookmarks. I tried all of the advice given but nothing works. Help, please. Thank you.

My Imac is 10.8 snow leopard version. I tried to import bookmarks from Safari to Firefox but import data from another browser are greyed out, even if private browsing is disabled. I also created a .html file
for my favorites without problem, but when I import this file in firefox, no bookmarks appear. I checked the file in a text editor for all the files that have been folded, but would not have existed. Can someone help me solve this problem.
It seems that the simplest solution would be if the button to IMPORT DATA FROM ANOTHER BROWSER was functional. Thank you.

I'm not familiar with TextEdit.app but I did a little research...

I think you have 3 options:

(1) switch how TextEdit opens files .html them appear as web pages to show the HTML source code. This article describes how: Activate TextEdit in year HTML Source Viewer with a Simple change of settings.

(2) If you do not want to change in #1, open the file from within TextEdit using file > open and check the box "ignore rich TEXT commands.

(3) you can also add .txt at the end of the file name. When you open the file, TextEdit should not try to view as a Web page. After installation, you will need to return the file .html for Firefox extension to be able to find it for import.

None of those who work for you?
