Sync your passwords, history, tabs and other browsing information across your iOS, Android and desktop computers with Firefox Accounts.
If both devices are desktop devices then you can also transfer data directly via a USB stick. That way you can also transfer data that isn't covered by Sync.
You can copy certain files with Firefox closed to the current profile folder to transfer or recover personal data. Note that best is to avoid copying a full profile folder.
You can use the button on the "Help -> More Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page to go to the current Firefox profile folder or use the about:profiles page.
