I recently got a new laptop and wanted to sync my Firefox install on there. So I then discovered the implementation of the new Sync and had to migrate over to that, which seemed to go fine. Quickly, all my addons and themes synced, but never my bookmarks, and only about 2 website per month from Jan-Apr, for some reason. But the main thing I care about is the bookmarks. It will only sync when I manually add a completely new bookmark to the original machine, but I won't grab all the old ones that are just sitting there in the same place. Is there a way to force a full sync of my bookmarks? Or even a way to manually carry over my bookmarks to the new machine using a USB drive?

Hi TheMimir, If you swipe to the right on a new tab on the Android device and you see Desktop and Mobile Bookmarks, are the old ones not there?

You can back up and restore with json files in the Bookmarks > Show all Bookmarks menu. But it is also possible to export html and import if this is absolutely necessary.
