Since I started using Firefox sync I never have to enter user/password (it logs in automatically when I run the browser up - woo hoo). So in the meantime I've forgotten this information. But if I have my browser running and I've sync'd ok that information must be in the browser 'space' somewhere. I have a new PC at home and want to get my sync'd info from my work PC. I can get the recovery key OK and print that off but what about the username/password?

If you saved your SYNC password in firefox, view your password here


If you didn't save the password, reset your Firefox SYNC password

You can find the sync account password and the sync (recovery) key in the password manager on computers where a sync account with a specific e-mail address has been set up.

  • Firefox/Tools > Options > Security: Passwords: "Saved Passwords" > "Show Passwords"

Look for:

  • chrome://weave (Mozilla Services Password)
  • chrome://weave (Mozilla Services Encryption Passphrase)

To make the process easier, use the QuickPasswords Addon, this adds a button to the toolbar for looking up passwords with a single click. Enter "weave" in the search bar.
