To access data that was stored using the old Sync version you would have to install a Firefox 28 version and restore your data from the Sync server. After having done this you can update to Firefox 29.0.1 and use the new Sync version.

Firefox Sync is not a Backup system, and was never intended to be used as one.
Also, it appears that you are running Firefox 21, not 29. Please update.
