I imported all my bookmarks from IE; I had them arranged in folders (sorted in a-z order) followed by individual bookmarks, also sorted in a-z order. On Firefox, they are intermixed in a-z order. How do I get them arranged so the folders appear first, and the individual bookmarks follow the folders?

If you want to import Internet Explorer Favorites from another computer, see Import Internet Explorer Favorites from another computer.At the top of the Firefox window, click the Firefoxbutton, go over to the History menu and selectShow All History to open the Library window.In the Library window, click Import and Backup and choose Import Data from Another Browser....Note: If Import Data from Another Browser... is disabled (greyed out), this can happen if you are in Private Browsing mode. Turn off that feature and try again.In the Import Wizard window that appears, selectMicrosoft Internet Explorer, then click Next.Firefox will list the types of settings and information it can import. Select the items you want to import, then click Next.Internet Options: General settings, including your home page. Since Firefox and Internet Explorer have different features, Firefox won't be able to import all of your settings.Cookies: Small bits of information stored on your computer by some websites that are used to keep you logged in, store your options, or do other things.Browsing History: Information on the sites you have visited.Favorites: Web pages you have saved in your Internet Explorer favorites.Click Finish.

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":
