Hello, Recently my computer had a huge crash - i lost my boot and my graphics card stopped working, therefore i had to format my computer, thus losing all my firefox bookmarks; however, i had all of them synced with my Android mobile device, and i still have them, however i've been unable to import my bookmarks from my mobile device into my computer; is there any way to do so?

Hello; I found another solution, i simply opened all of the favorites as tabs in my mobile device and then synched them to my PC, then i refavorited all of them, it seems now my cellphone has two "imported from desktop" folders, but at least i have all of my favorites. Thanks.

Yes, it was the first thing i tried, however unfortunately, my Bookmarks were not retrieved. And yes, i'm using the same account for my Mobile device and my PC, it seems as only my mobile device has my bookmarks (all in a "Desktop" folder) but my PC has none,
