Hello!

I was wondering if it is possible to recover old bookmarks in the case when I do not have the access to my old device anymore. My HDD was replaced and I have lost app data. I was using sync on the old device. I have attached the list of my devices below. Basically my question is: is it possible to retrieve the data from a device that was synced 17 days ago, if I no longer have access to that device?

Thank you!

The other sync devices should still have the data.

If you mean that data on the Sync server has already been updated and you no longer have the bookmarks you need on the Sync server then this isn't possible unless you still have access to that old Waterfox setup, but in that case you can also transfer this data via an USB stick.
