I just got a new computer, and I'd like to transfer, or "sync" all of my bookmarks and preferences from my laptop onto my new computer. However, I've set up an account and set them both to sync, and it doesn't seem like it's doing anything. How can I get it to sync from my old computer to my new one?

It takes a bit of time to sync, make sure both devices are on; you can try to restart your devices to see if that helps.

You can also copy the involved files manually.

You can copy files like these to the current Firefox profile folder to recover specific data.

  • bookmarks and history: places.sqlite
  • bookmark backups: JSON backups in the bookmarkbackups folder
  • SQLite files like cookies.sqlite (cookies) and formhistory.sqlite (saved form data)
  • logins.json and key3.db (decryption key) for Passwords saved in the Password Manager
  • cert8.db and possibly cert_override.txt for (intermediate) certificates stored in the Certificate Manager
  • persdict.dat for words you added to the spelling checker dictionary
  • permissions.sqlite for Permissions and possibly content-prefs.sqlite for other Site Preferences
  • sessionstore.js for open tabs and pinned tabs and tab groups
