I have had my firefox account for years. The email address associated with it is not functioning anymore due to massive technical difficulties from the service provider.

I need to change the email address associated with my account.

How do I do this?

Thanks! Kirsten

Basically stop using Sync removing all devices and start again with a new email address. Note if you sync all the devices on the old service before you start a new one you are less likely to have problems. Also note the advice about still backing up your profile. In particular if you use Sync to Sync bookmarks I personally would take the precaution of backing them up on the main computer on a regular basis maybe every month because Sync can have issues occaisionally and could baddly corupt your Bookmarks.
