How to sync multiple browser profiles across two computers?
I currently have three distinct browser profiles set up on my work computer (one main personal profile, one work profile and one guest profile), but only my main personal profile is syncing data (bookmarks, extensions, history, etc.) across to my other computer. When I log into my other computer, only my main profile appears and syncs. The other two profiles remain isolated to my work computer and aren't accessible or synced on the second machine. I want all three profiles to be available and fully synced across both of my computers so that their bookmarks and settings are mirrored everywhere.
Is it possible to have multiple profiles sync across devices simultaneously under the same account? If so, how can I properly link or set up the remaining two profiles so they sync across both computers without messing up my main profile?

Hi,
You can only sync one profile per Mozilla account.
In your case, you can create new accounts for each of the remaining profiles, sign in to them and enable Sync. On you computer with one profile, you'll need to create new profiles manually, and then sign in to your corresponding Mozilla accounts there.
Please feel free to follow up here if you have any further questions.
Same issue. I feel the need to have Profiles able to sync using a single Mozilla Account is important.
Without it: profiles value are reduced so low as to not be viable.
Backing-up and copying & using a Profile from a second or third of forth computer is: not viable.
Thank you very much.

Hi Sjo, if you want to make any suggestions or share any feedback, Mozilla Connect would be the right place.
