I first used sync between my pc and mobile device. In regards to bookmarks, on my mobile device, sync created a folder labled Desktop Bookmarks. And on my pc, there's a folder labeled Mobile Bookmarks. I now want to sync with another pc making 3 devices (2 Desktop, 1 Mobile). However, when I do that, it makes my bookmarks look exactly the same as my first pc. I don't want that. One PC is home, the other is work. I use different bookmarks at each place with the occasional overlap. I have it set up where the bookmarks I use most on each computer are on the toolbar. The others are in Bookmarks Menu. Obviously I use different bookmarks at home more often than at work and vice versa. Is there a way instead of distinguishing between Mobile Bookmarks and Desktop Book marks, that they can be separated by device? You already ask for each device name anyway.

Sorry, but Sync doesn't have feature like that - i.e., to have separate Bookmarks Toolbar folders on different Laptop / Desktop devices, as with Mobile devices.

Sounds to me like a 'needed' feature, as other users have mentioned a feature like that.

You can request that type of feature be added to Sync via this 'Feedback' page: https://input.mozilla.org/en-US/feedback
