If I update to new Firefox Synch, will I loose data in Firefox for Android?
My laptop was recently stolen, it had Firefox with the old version of Synch. I still have my Android with Firefox and Synch set up. On my new laptop, I am not able to synch my bookmarks and data because it has the new version of Firefox Synch. If I go through the process of disconnecting Synch accounts and re-synching my data between browsers as directed in support solutions, will I loose the data that is still in my Firefox for Android? How can I recover my data from the old Synch account so that my Firefox data is restored on my new laptop?

Sync accounts do not affect your profile data. You can safely switch between the two of them. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-to-update-to-the-new-firefox-sync

The instructions that you refer to say "in order to create a Firefox account and sign in to the new Sync you'll have to unlink all of your current devices from the old version of Sync." If I set it up with the same email address as before, will it maintain the original data (bookmarks, etc) and Synch all of that on all the devices?
