I switched from Internet Explorer to Mozilla on the same computer. I tried to import my favorites using the file/import process. although the process was completed, when I go into bookmarks, it does not show IE favorites as an option.

Try doing an export from IE and import to Firefox.

In IE:
File > Import/Export - Export to HTML file

then in Firefox:
Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks -> Import & Backup - Import HTML... = From HTML file
