Can I connect to Firefox Sync if i have the sync key? When I go to Tools>Options>Sync>Set Up Firefox Sync I see only Create new Account and Connect that does not allow me to connect to my account. Thank you.

You can click the link at the bottom: I don't have the device with me.

That will allow you to enter the sync key and other data.
