My Favorites were automatically imported from Internet Explorer when I started with Firefox, however I am unable to "organize" or otherwise work with or delete any Favorites in Firefox. When I click on "Organize Favorites" only a blank pop-up screen comes up. Please advise as to what I need to do to be able to organize and delete Favorites within Firefox.
