I am having a hard time importing my bookmarks into a fresh install of Firefox under Mac OS 10.6.8?

I use Xmarks for my bookmark storage.

After installing the Xmarks plug-in and running through the initial sync, Firefox (21) just hangs and I have to force quit when the final bookmark importation is attempted.

I am in touch with Xmarks, but last night I tried something different, I downloaded my bookmarks from Xmarks as a html file and tried importing it manually into FF and the same thing happened, it just hangs, the beach ball spins and I have to force quit?

Any support on this would be greatly appreciated

You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database file in the Firefox profile folder.
