Header and footers are properties of page styles.  In general, 
documents will use a number of page styles, and you may wish to 
insert headers or footers into some of them or to insert different 
ones into different styles.  So you choose the page style into which 
you want to insert the header or footer.

Every text (Writer) document starts with the Default page style.  You 
may create others.  What has happened here is presumably that the 
conversion process from .docx has created a page style to match the 
behaviour of the original .docx file.  You can check which parts of 
your document are styled as "Converted1" and which - if any - as 
"Default" and insert your headers or footers appropriately.

I trust this helps.
