Mozilla.org is divided into several independent forums and other things.

Check your user profile at the site.

However, if you are talking about sync;

Resetting the sync password, or changing its e-mail, will remove all data from the servers.

This is a security feature. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/ive-lost-my-firefox-sync-account-information

I do have more less the same problem. And I'm not talking about sync or email address associated with Mozilla.org website. I'd like to change default email address associated with Firefox installed on my PC. Long time ago I made a mistake of syncing my bookmarks, history and other stuff to my secondary gmail account abc@gmail.com. When I had to reinstall Firefox few months ago, I sync it to @abc account as it has some important stuff, but my primary gmail account is @xyz.gmail.com. Now whenever I open calendar, gdrive or mail it opens by default on @abc. How can I change it to point by default to @xyz?
