Firefox imported my Safari bookmarks, but I don't see them anywhere; where should they be?

Firefox says I successfully imported my bookmarks. I assumed this would mean that Firefox would now have all the same bookmarks in all the same folders as Safari. However, this didn't happen, and after looking around in the bookmarks section of firefox, I don't see any indication the bookmarks went anywhere- or the history. I had selected the option to import all five things, even the cookies.

You can usually find the imported Safari bookmarks in a folder ("From Safari") at the bottom of the Bookmarks Menu folder (Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks).

If you can't find them in that folder then export the bookmarks in Safari to an HTML file and import that file in Firefox.

thanks - I didn't see that "importing bookmarks from an HTML file" section!
