I'm trying to delete the old email address that is associated with my firefox account. How do I enter a new email address?

hi dbsowders, since the email address is in fact the username for firefox sync, you'll have to close your existing account after logging in to https://accounts.firefox.com and unlink and recreate a new firefox account in the firefox options > sync tab.
