Importing bookmarks and other data from Safari
Firefox lets you import settings and information from Safari. This can be handy when you start using Firefox because it saves you from having to configure many things yourself.
When you run Firefox for the first time, the Import Wizard will ask if you want to import settings and information from other browsers you already have installed.
If you have already passed this step, you can still import your settings and information.
