Importing Passwords and History From Safari
I've read all the articles here about importing my passwords and history, but the Import Wizard is ONLY giving me the option to import my bookmarks. Even if I can't get the browsing history I need to be able to migrate my (extensive) password list.
I've exported my Safari passwords as a .csv file, but there doesn't seem to be an option to import a .csv file.
The page here regarding it says the feature is 'disabled by default' but does not say it's unavailable and I can't find clear instructions for how to activate the feature so that I can import my passwords. Can anybody help?

solution:
type: about:config
type: signon.management.page.fileImport.enabled
switch to TRUE
go to 'logins and passwords' and click the 3 dots and you should have the option to "import from a file".
Import your .csv then go back to about:config and re-toggle the setting to FALSE.

I tried to import saved logins and could not do it. I saw an article from Firefox that the feature was disable due to performance. I did find a quick workaround though. You can still export from a different computer. Save that file and open Chrome. Type chrome://flags into the web bar. Search for password import and choose enabled in the drop down. Restart Chrome and go to settings/passwords. Now the 3 dots will bring up an import option. You can import your saved logins from Firefox. Go back to Firefox and use the import from another browser. Choose Chrome and your logins will all import. If you have Chrome already installed, it should take no more than 1-2 minutes from the time you do the first export until you're done.
