Only part of my bookmarks migrated, how do I get the rest to import?

When I set up Firefox I followed the instructions to migrate my favorite from IE, however the bookmarks stopped with those beginning in "F", and left most of the bookmarks out. I have tried migrating them several times however the rest do not move over. Any suggestions on how to get them into Firefox?

Hello,

Try export from IE as html file your bookmarks:

Then import on Firefox:

I did that and I now only have the bookmarked/favorites that were in folders, not the "unsorted" ones, which are the ones I most commonly use. Any further suggestions?

Did you try go to Bookmarks >> Show all bookmarks >> Import and Backup >> Import data from another browser?

Try use some service of cloud bookmarks and go to IE store your bookmarks on cloud then go to Firefox and get back them
