I need to recover Firefox bookmarks from a dead tablet.
I don't see any button to install Sync. I just set up a Firefox account, but don't know how to recover them. Would I need to get into the dead tablet? If so, I'll get a battery (it won't charge now). Thanks!

Hi,
So it sounds like your tablet was logged into firefox before it died? If so, please follow these steps:
- Install Firefox on a computer.
- Open and press the Firefox account icon at the top right hand corner.
- Log into the same account as you used on your dead tablet.
- If you have any verification emails in your inbox, confirm them.
- Go back into Firefox and click the Firefox account icon to expand the menu.
- Click Sync now. It will now sync all bookmarks from any other logged in devices.
- Then press the Library icon and press bookmarks.
- All bookmarks saved accross any devices logged into Firefox will now display here.
Hopefully this helps!
Thanks for the response Ethan. I should have been clearer, I haven't known how to set up a Firefox account. I just downloaded it a few years ago and used it. It seems like the bookmarks must be stored somewhere, I just don't know how to recover them.
