I tried to import my IE 8 bookmarks following the process outlined. It appeared to work until I looked at the imported list and saw that only the first folder of my many bookmarks is listed under bookmarks imported from IE. How can I get the rest of my folders? I tried doing it several times. Thanks.

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":
