STEP 1: Restoring bookmarks.plist file in Safari:

- Paste ~/Library/Safari/Bookmarks.plist then press Enter to open the hidden Bookmarks library.
- Press and hold on Option key and at the same time, drag the bookmarks.plist file to another location so a copy of that file will be created, while maintaining the original file at its original location.
STEP 2: Transferring bookmarks from Safari to Firefox:
- Export your bookmarks from Safari using File > Export Bookmarks. You should be able to choose where you store the file.
- In Firefox, open the application menu and choose Bookmarks > Manage bookmarks (shortcut key: Ctrl + Shift + O) and import the file you have previously exported from Safari under Import and Backup.

- Press Import and Backup > Import Bookmarks from HTML...
