Hello,

I had no choice but to wipe my windows lucky i got my passwords back but i lost all my bookmarks. My mobil phone does have all my "Desktop bookmarks" under its own tab, but im not sure how to make sure my desktop bookmarks get back over to my actual desktop without losing the ones on my mobil. i have to many bookmarks to go thru 1 by 1. any help is great.

Hi

First off, make sure that Firefox on your desktop is not connected to Firefox Sync.

In Firefox for Android, open the menu and select Settings. At the top of the list go into your Firefox Sync settings and trigger a manual sync.

Wait a short while (about 10 minutes or so), then sign into your Firefox Account on the desktop copy of Firefox - you should find that the bookmarks and other data will shortly populate (again, might need to leave it short while to transfer across).

I hope that this helps.
