I imported my bookmarks from chrome, but only about half, if that, of the bookmarks and folders actually imported.

A good percentage of my Chrome bookmarks did not import and the ones that did are all over the place. It would take me an insane amount of time to individually move them so they would be grouped in the same format as on Chrome. Is there any way to fix the import problem so they all import AND IS THERE ANY WAY TO IMPORT THE CHROME BOOKMARKS TO FIREFOX SO THEY SHOW UP AND ARE GROUPED IN THE EXACT SAME WAY AS THEY APPEAR ON CHROME?

Can you open the Chrome Bookmarks Manager? If so, save your bookmarks to a HTML file. Then you can import that file to Firefox.

See the last item: Export bookmarks from Chrome

Or maybe the Alternate directions for exporting bookmarks for more recent versions of Chrome

Over how many bookmarks are you talking?

Are those bookmarks possibly deeply nested in a lot of sub folders?
