i can't find where my favourites from internet explorer are located in firefox. when i downloaded the new browser it asked if it should import my favourites. i said yes and now i don't know where they are.

If there are problems with importing the IE Favorites in Firefox then export the favorites in IE to an HTML file and import that file in the Firefox Bookmarks Manager.

If you do not have the menu bar in IE then right-click the toolbar at the top to enable the Menu Bar.

  • Export the favorites in IE to an HTML file (bookmarks.html):
    File > Import and Export
  • Import the HTML file in Firefox:
    Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Import Bookmarks from HTML

See "Import from another browser" and "Import from file":

Hi billharrison.me.com

Did you try to export the favorites in IE to an HTML file and import this file in Firefox?

That is the way to proceed in case there are problems with importing the IE favorites.
