Ok, I have read MANY posts on or about this topic. So let's start at beginning please. 1) I need my bookmarks on a "future" device. 2) All I have is my Android device at this time. 3) I cant lose all of these bookmarks. 4) How can I backup, or export them to anywhere BUT not a device. I have 1 device but need the security of a backup. 5) My device is NOT rooted. So copying the file is unavailable to me. Please tell me Mozilla thought of this. Please oh please.

Peeps I will try JUST about anything. Thank you so much for any help.

Hi Ron.

There is no way to back up the bookmarks, but if you have Firefox installed on a different device, you can you a Firefox Account to Sync them to that device. This guide will help:

Thank you for your insight. Although I have only 1 device at this time. If I were to lose it, I have have lost everything. I do have a sync account but nothing to sync to. I just don't want to be left out in the cold.

In your circumstances, I am not aware of any way to back up that information.
