While problems with account login, (site data list was empty), one site log data was saved as one and only, and after logging on FF account I don't have previous site login data, just the new one. Probably new password file was created, and unfortunately FF Sync doesn't change it, it doesn't download log data from account.

I am sorry to hear that the log data was lost. In order to better help you, can you confirm if the login was for Firefox Sync or another website?

If the logins were lost you can check to see if passwords were selected to be synced from the Firefox Account preferences in your Firefox preferences menu.

You might also check to see if the feature to auto fill forms is selected, and the saved logins in the passwords menu. Please see these articles for more details:

In the event that the passwords information is lost, you should record all information in a separate text file somewhere else on your hard drive, or written down. You can easily copy and paste if you need to do so. If you are concerned about someone else looking at that file, you can compress it using a password.
