my syncronized data from my login isnt transferring to my new pc
I have a new computer added and tried to sync, but I had forgotten my password to my sync and asked to change it. Upon doing so once I signed and tried to sync, nothing synced. Is there a way for me to restore all of that stored data. Especially my saved password, bookmarks and auto-fill information?

Hi
Thank you for your question about the Firefox Sync service.
It appears from your question, that you are using Firefox Sync as a back up service. This is not what Sync is designed to do. The Firefox Sync service takes a copy of the data you wish to include and transfers it to a second device (typically a mobile device such as a tablet or a telephone) running a copy of Firefox. The storage in between all attached devices is both temporary and fragile and is not stable enough to be (and is not designed as) a reliable backup service.
If you have a copy of your Firefox profile for desktop Firefox, you may be able to recover your bookmarks and other data. Please have a read of this article.
If you have a copy of your data on a mobile version of Firefox, please follow these instructions to connect it to Firefox Sync to copy your data.
