Hola Para ingresar en otro dispositivo o en el mismo al servicio de Sync de Firefox se usa la cuenta principal (es decir la correo de correo que esta configurada como cuenta principal en Sync), la contraseña es la contraseña de la cuenta de Sync que configuraste al crearla no tiene porque ser la contraseña del correo. Si necesitas recuperar la contraseña de Sync se puede hacer si creaste previamente una clave de recuperación. Saludos
