If you still have the Sync key and the Sync password and email address that you used to register then you can setup a sync account and retrieve data that you have stored on the sync server.

You can enter the account name (email address) and password and the Sync key.

  • Open "Tools > Options > Sync" or "Firefox > Set Up Sync"
  • Click "Set Up Firefox Sync" to go to "Firefox Sync Setup"
  • Click "I already have a Firefox Sync account" : Connect
  • Click "I don't have the device with me" at the bottom

You can click the "Sync Options" button to select what to sync.
