I just downloaded Firefox on advice from Norton Internet Security (NIS Security features do not work in Safari). In the process my bookmarks, tabs, history etc were to have been brought over to Firefox (there was a screen that even said they were!). When I open Firefox none of that is there, however. Starting over with all that is not preferred, in fact, not gonna happen. Do you know of a fix? Thanks

Is it everything that is not imported or just bookmarks. When you import Safari bookmarks they will be labeled "From Safari" in your bookmarks menu.

Also, what version of Safari and Firefox?

Thanks - yes, everything needs to be imported (while istalling Firefox I was asked if I wanted t0 and I replied yes). Firefox version is 9.0.1 and Safari version is 5.1.2.

Thanks for your help

Also, no joy in seeing "from Safari" in the bookmarks menu.
