I have a G5 running Leopard and I use two browsers: Firefox and Safari, As a holdover from my PC days I usually use Firefox but I'm getting more interested in Safari. I installed xMarks on both browsers so I could synch my bookmarks. However, Safari is not synching with Firefox. Although I go to Tools on Firefox, then xMarks synch and i get a message saying synching was successful, when I go to Safari I discover that my Firefox bookmarks are absent. Does anyone have any suggestions for this?

BTW, is there supposed to be a "Tools" men in the Safari menu bar?

Instead of syncing Safari with FireFox, do it the other way - FireFox with Safari.
 
That's part of the problem: I can't find a way to connect to xMarks on Safari. On FF, xMarks is under the Tools menu, but there is no Tools menu on Safari.
