=Frequently asked questions=
==What happens to my add-ons when I convert to a new Firefox Account?==
You will have access to all your add-ons through your new Firefox Account.
==Why do I want a Firefox Account?==
A Firefox Account is the primary account system used by Firefox, most often used natively to synchronize Firefox services across multiple devices. Even if you don’t use Sync, many Firefox-related services will soon begin migrating over to simplify your sign in process, making it easier for you to join new services.
==Where do I change my password?==
Once you have a Firefox Account, you can go to https://accounts.firefox.com, sign in and click {button Change} next to '''Password'''.
