Is there a copy of my profile saved online if I lost my macbook?

I recently had my macbook and external harddrive with my time machine backups stolen. Major wipe out! I finally got my replacement and signed into my Firefox sync account and prayed all my bookmarks would magically appear again.... Sadly they didn't. Is there a copy of my old profile (including all my bookmarks) saved on the firefox servers?

HI tobybstyling, I am sorry but Firefox sync was not meant to be a back up service. If they do not sync down, I am sorry but they are no longer accessible.
