How I use imported from Internet Explorer FAVORITES
I use Google Chrome. However, I get ads, hinder my work. As I can not get rid of those ads, I want to try Mozilla Firefox. I imported Internet Explorer Favorites, but I don't know how to use them. I don't see any button or icon to that effect. I would appreciate your help.

You can usually find the Favorites IE imported into a folder ("Internet Explorer") at the bottom of the file Menu bookmarks or Favorites bar folder (bookmarks > show all bookmarks).
If there are problems with importing IE bookmarks in Firefox, then export favorites in Internet Explorer to a HTML file and import this file in the Firefox Bookmarks Manager.
If you don't have the menu bar in Internet Explorer, and then right-click on the toolbar above to activate the menu bar.
- Export Favorites in Internet Explorer to a file (bookmarks.html) HTML:
File > import and export - Import HTML file in Firefox:
Bookmarks > show all bookmarks > import and backup > import bookmarks HTML

I imported my Internet Explorer Favorites OK.
They are sitting under the Firefox bookmarks folder "from Internet Explorer". Double movement necessary.
I don't want to have to go through this folder. I want to put my favorites of IE DIRECTLY folder under bookmarks.Favorites of IE that are imported when you install Firefox or when you use the import menu of the library item, they are in their own separate folder named In Internet Explorer. You can remove this folder before you can continue.
When you export to IE Favorites in bookmarks.htm file IE format > import & export the menu item, and then import this file into Firefox library window (from the item show all bookmarks menu) > import and backup-> import-> HTML file HTML - these bookmarks are merged with the existing Firefox bookmarks, they are not in this separate file.

When I changed my IE7, Firefox (and I'm very glad I did) I migrated my large list of Favorites (which was divided into subsections to make it easier to find items) to Firefox Bookmarks. I continued to bookmark web sites, I added to the sub-headings in "Of Internet Explorer" I can easily find. However, when I wanted to copy on my laptop, I discovered that the only "favourites", I can find it on my PC are the old favorites IE7 - none of the additions made in Firefox were there. Similarly, the bookmarks toolbar, which I use now is different from the toolbar Favorites always accessible from my Windows Explorer.
Where this information is stored in Firefox so I can copy?
My OS is Windows 7 Professional.
You can read places.sqlite without specialized software that understands the format.
If you want to create shortcuts .url on disk in the style of favorites of IE, the best thing would be to have in reality IE creates them for you by import of your Firefox bookmarks. There is actually a support article on this: export Internet Explorer Favorites.

Cannot paste from Internet Explorer works.
Trying to copy text from Internet Explorer and paste it into a Microsoft Works document, I get the message that the content is too large to paste and to select less text. I tried, but it still doesn't work. Even if I'm just trying to copy a Word and paste that, I get the same message. I can, however, copy works in the emails, but not email in the works.
