sync with the wrong desktop. I lost my bookmarks can i get these back?
I haved login in my new and old desktop. I have login by my new desktop bij firefox but i could not get the bookmarks from my old desktop. I wanted to sync but he sais he was synchronised but i had not the correct bookmarks. So I get back to my old desktop to solved the problem (i thought). I go to my profile en pushed on the sync button and now i have the bookmarks form my new desktop on my old one and lost al the bookmarks i wanted.
Can I get these bookmarks back en why are the bookmarks not automaticallythe same if i login with my account?
Thanks for your support and i hope you can help me.
regards Laurens

First, disconnect with sync.
On the system/profile where you lost the bookmarks;
Restore Bookmark Backups
Firefox automatically makes backups of the bookmarks. These are stored in the bookmarkbackups folder.
Open the Bookmarks Manager; Press the Alt or F10 key to bring up the toolbar, and select Bookmarks. Hot key is <Control> (Mac=<Command>) <Shift> B. Firefox 84+ <Control> (Mac=<Command>) <Shift> O.
Once the window is open, at the top of the page, press the button labeled Import and Backup. Select Restore. From the list, pick the file you want and click it.
The backups are stored in a jsonlz4 file named something like this; bookmarks-2016-06-29_1424_enD1GTH ya0JmicnYWg4V4g==.jsonlz4
In this example; 2016-06-29 = date created, 1424 = number of entries.
