Change email with sync without losing any information

I need to change the email address associated with my Sync account as it will no longer be active in a month or so. However, I need to be able to keep my saved information (bookmarks, etc) associated with the account. I understand that there is no way to just change my email address. Is there a way to migrate all of my information from one account to the other?

The information in Sync is the information which is in your Firefox browser installations. No need to "migrate" your data, Sync will pick up your data for the new Sync account as each device is connected to the new account.

Sync isn't a "data storage cloud", it is intended to be used for data synchronization across multiple devices.
