How can I sync my old computer with my new?

I have a new computer with the latest firefox browser. Also, my old computer has the latest firefox browser. and I need to synchronize the firefox browser to the latest browser from my old computer. I have implemented the process of synchronization on both old and new browsers. When I try to run the sync on both computers, nothing happens. I need the instructions step by step on how to get everything from old favorites, passwords, history, tabs, add ons, etc to the new computer.

Thanks, Jennheather

  1. Sync does not transfer the computer to another.
  2. A synchronization server is where are stored the data synchronization - this is the "hub". Data flow 'to' and 'from' the synchronization server.
  3. Best to have the old computer synced to the synchronization server first and then login / connect the new computer for synchronization, at least a few hours later if you have a newly created sync account or have a lot of data stored in Firefox. Thousands of bookmarks.
  4. At this time it is better not to have a mobile device using Firefox for Android connected to Sync then 'add a new device' to an existing synchronization account.

May be easier to simply transfer your profile from the old computer to the new computer via a USB Flash key with the help of Sync, especially if you are new to using Sync.

IMO, as long as you do not leave a real old operating system to a real new (such as going from WinXP to 8.1 of Windows or Windows 10) it should be safe to copy all the content of the profile folder and replace existing files that are in the profile that is already on the new computer.
