How can I access my bookmarks, etc. that are on an old laptop?
I have installed firefox to a new laptop and logged in with my username and password but my bookmarks and preferences are not showing. How can I access them?

You will have to get them from your old Firefox on the other computer.
If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem. Never work with original files.

I am unable to log into my other computer and would like to get the bookmarks. They are stored on Safari on my iPad but I don't know how to migrate the from there.
Find out from Safari forum. No idea as this is Firefox not Safari.
