How do I backup firefox's password database?

When I tried to backup my firefox appdata from synctoy, it kept throwing an error on logins.json, which is required to copy my passwords over.
I tried to manually copy the file, and it threw an error saying I don't have permissions. I checked permissions, I do have permissions. Mozilla somehow hard coded the file with some kind of superlock, and I need to find a way to get past it so I can backup firefox. I'm kinda pissed because now my data is at risk on a computer that is failing and I have to sit here and wait for a damn answer while my laptop motherboard dies a little more each day.

I have found that downloads of around 80 meg or so that fail to download cannot be recovered by clicking on the "retry download" The retry download does not recover and continue to load the file while configured under D.O.H.
The download will have to be restarted from scratch to correct. Is this a known problem while using D.O.H.?

Every time I try to download any files attached to my mails and from Google Drive, nothing happens. What is the cause of this problem and how can I fix it? I've been encountering this for some quite time now, and every time I encounter it I switch to Google Chrome and download the files from there; which, for me, is very tasking since I prefer to use this browser. So please, fix this issue.

I got updated by Firefox release 69.0.3 (64-bit), it went all right until it restarted. Some profile windows appeared, asking whether to import or not previous data. Default is no to import, I chose import as I like the browser to give hits of browsing.
The result, all browsing history was deleted. I've got recent backup files, copied the full profile and used Profile manager. As soon as Firefox r69 runs, places.sqlite is renamed to places.sqlite.corrupt Passwords and bookmarks where restored.
It seems that r69 uses a diferent database schema, thus historic information is not transferible. Import tool only shows options to import history from explorer and chrome.
Is there a tool to import browsing history from Firefox previous releases?

Firefox 69.0.2 is no longer able to load any web page since some time after updating to macOS10.15.
The Mac itself is connected to the Internet and I can do emails and Safari just works fine.
But FIrefox cannot connect to anywhere and show "The connection has timed out". I have tried Refreshing, Safe mode, and re-installation after removing the profile folder under Application Support. None of them worked.
Is this only me? Is there a fix?
Thanks, Kouichi

This suddenly started happening a few days ago and I'm not sure what could have possibly caused it. I looked to some forums and possible solutions, here's what I tried:
-Refreshed Firefox -Started Firefox in safe mode w/o addons -Uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled -Made a new profile to see if my current one was bad -Checked about:config for download settings, all reset

I have been trying for weeks to solve this problem and figure out how it happened but I cannot download any type of file on Google Drive on Firefox and it's been bothering me. I have cleared my cookies, cache, history, saved logins, restarted on private browsing, changed numerous settings and deleted and reinstall Firefox and Abode Flash. Nothing has worked. I even deleted McAfee protection in case it was a firewall problem but that didn't work either.
I'm only having this problem on my HP laptop and on this browser. Downloading google drive files works on my Dell Laptop through any browser.
If anyone has any suggestions as to why this is happening and how to solve it, I would be very grateful. I provided a screenshot of the error every time I try to download a file.

After I first got the message I uninstalled Ffox and reinstalled it. Same message. So I can't get to any ffox menu, or buttons because I only have the one page with the message.
One suggestion was to uninstall and delete "firefox program file" but I can't find any file with that name on the C drive Mozilla Firefox folders
What can I do?
