How to get FF bookmarks into Safari 4
Hi Guys!
like many others I've been using FireFox the past year, but now I want to migrate back to Safari 4. With all my bookmarks that are now in Firefox, of course! Safari 4 has got an import feature. But what kind of file does it want? In any case I haven't a clue how to export my bookmarks from FireFox into any particular file. Do you?
The only thing I could think of to do was go into FF's Bookmarks edit mode and copy/paste the bookmarks menu into an .rtf and an .html file. But that bombed: Safari 4's import wanted neither.
Anybody else got this problem? And preferably licked it?

Your bookmarks are contained in a single HTML file called bookmarks.html. You may find in in {your account}/Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles/xxxxxxxx.default/. You may use Safari's File>Import Bookmarks... menu selection to import this file.
Thanks, M! Much obliged! That was fast. Gonna try it right away.
