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 Kickin-S!

Have you tried to import the bookmarks directly using the Firefox import tool? You can find the instructions here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/import-bookmarks-internet-explorer

Let me know if it worked!
