I had to rebuild my mac. Prior to reformatting hard drive I saved my Firefox bookmarks as a JSON. File. The instructions say to restore the JSON file but every time I select Restore >> Choose File, no dialogue box comes up for me to select the location of my file.

Where did you save the file? Reformatting the hard drive would have removed all files on it. You may have software capable of recovering them.
