Hello.

I had to restore my iMac from a year old backup and wanted to sync Firefox bookmarks so they reflect the latest that I have on my MacBook.

However, what happened was that ALL my devices now show... my year old bookmarks from the iMac backup.

In other words, the sync didn't updated the OLD with NEW but rather replaced NEW bookmarks with the old ones.

Is there a way to revert?

Thanks
