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.

Now How Can i get My all data ? if u have any other way please suggest me because i want my all lost data ..

When the Firefox Account password is changed, the data on the Sync server is deleted, and there are no backups. The password is used to create the encryption the "key" to unlocking your data; change it and the data is worthless.

There is a warning message - see the screenshot.
