Bookmarks on Android and computer no longer match. Android bookmarks are the most recent. How do I export them to my desktop? I'm concerned if I sync, it will combine the two, and clutter my bookmarks with outdated ones or ones I have since deleted.

Hi

Assuming you have connected the same Sync account on both your mobile and desktop copies of Firefox:

In Firefox on your mobile device:

  1. Go into the Settings menu and select Firefox Account.
  2. Tap on Synchronise now.

This will “force” a synchronisation of the data that is on the local device storage. Firefox Sync will then combine the two sets, but will also combine the edits that you have made - what you should be left with is the most recent set and folder structure.

I hope this helps.
