For some reason my computer died. I have a fairly comprehensive backup of my computer on a backup drive, but it doesn't want to cooperate at the moment. I do however, have an android phone that lost it's sync settings but has a complete set of my bookmarks in it. Is there a way to get the bookmarks from my phone to my computer?

EDIT: It looks like by asking for a new recovery code I've inadvertently erased my information that was stored on the cloud... Wish it had given me a warning about that... Either way the last question in the OP still stands: Can I get the bookmarks from my phone to the computer?

If you pair your Mobile to the account that you just reseted the information on it should be pushed to the computer too.

You can learn how to do it by following the steps explained here: How do I set up Sync on my computer?
