I've got Firefox Sync on my pc. I've just bought a new pc and I'd like to import all my opened tabs from the older one. Where "firefox sync" saves all my datas? Is it possible to manage my datas from different devices? If I had five pc, how could I decide which datas I'd import from different devices?

Firefox Sync synchronizes all my datas with a server, but I think that it's difficult to access my datas and manage them.

Basically Firefox Sync uses a server to try to keep all the Synced options the same on all Synced devices.

If you Sync one option available is to Sync open session tabs. See

There is no choice of Sync direction. You should not become over reliant on Sync. If you choose to Sync bookmarks you need to be aware Sync will occasionally corrupt or duplicate bookmarks. Personally I strongly advise you make manual backups of bookmarks. (Firefox is pretty good now at making automated bookmark backups, but they may not be sufficient)
