I have many tab groups and many tabs within each one. I want to copy or sync the tab groups onto a second computer.

Can this be done on a Mac? If so, how?

Ok, I finally figured it out.

http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox

Mac

Profile folders are in one of these locations: 

   ~/Library/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/<profile folder>
   ~/Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles/<profile folder>

The tilde character (~) refers to the current user's Home folder, so ~/Library is the /Macintosh HD/Users/<username>/Library folder. [edit]

I copied the Profile folder and pasted it in the same location on my second computer. The reason why I couldn't find it before was because the Library folder was hidden. Once I figured out how to reveal it, I was able to copy and paste it.

I hope Tab Groups will be able to sync in FF in the future. Tab groups is a great way to organize all the tabs.

App (pinned) tabs and Tab Groups (Panorama) are stored as part of the session data [1] in the file sessionstore.js [2] in the Firefox profile folder [3].
