I have just tried this importing Internet Explorer Favorits to Opera.

I got them all.

 

Are you sure that you imported them from the correct location?

 

You could always create a file on the desktop - call it "favorites".

Copy the F-F favorites to this folder.

Open Opera and follow the import wizard.

When it comes to locating the folder direct it to the newly created "favorites" folder on the desktop.

 

I have just tried this method and it works too.
