Problems with new account
Hi, I added two devices, MacBook and I phone. Old laptop is dead and old android phone is nearly there. I tried signing into Firefox on new laptop and syncing but ended up failing. Turns out when I thought I was signing in I actually created a new acct…I typed my password with one letter upper case instead of lower. Now when I sign in it defaults to the new account with zero success no from old acct. My nearly dead android still has the correct acct. with old password phrasing. I tried deleting acct., my troubles are that I can’t seem to sign in with email and password, it wants to use newer methods, such as sign in with Google or Face ID, both of which goes back to that new blank acct. with new incorrect password. I am about to delete and start over with Safari but figure it’s worth one more shot. Again, I have the new account on both a new I phone and a newish MB pro, and the good old acct. I want is showing up only on the near dead Android. The issue is beyond me at this point. Thanks

Sync isn't to be used for backups it's sync between devices from mozilla server. If you need the data to remain permant it's best to copy the data to usb drive to restore to the new computer so it's always there. There are Firefox FAQ how to if you search for them.
