Which version of Firefox were you using on the old PC?

Any problems logging into Sync on the new computer? Did you have the username and password from Sync on the old PC? Any possibility that you needed to reset the password for Sync?

Hi,

The old pc had an old version of firefox as when I synced previously I used all those codes.

The new version which I just downloaded uses simple login system.

I had the old user name which was my email? And I didnt remember my password, so I clicked " I forgot my password."

So on the new pc I was able to then login into firefox but bookmarks are not there.

I hope they are not lost.

Thanks
