I tried to import my favorites from internet explorer 9 the way it is described here on the firefox site. All I get is a new menu "From Internet Explorer" with the complete list of directories and subdirectories from IE. But the directories are empty! What shall I do?

If you have 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.
That way you also preserve any sorting that you may have done in IE with the Favorites.

  • 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 HTML: From File

See "Import from another browser" and "Import from file":
