I would like to sync an old Firefox Sync Key Code into my new Firefox and new laptop, is that possible ?
I had an old Dell Inspiron and it was stolen. Now I have a new HP laptop and would like to sync the old Firefox data from my old laptop that was stolen. The above key is the only key I have. Please help!! Thanks.

hello johnmark1966, you'd also need your account name & the password you've assigned to your sync account in order to reconnect to your old account. on your new laptop go to firefox > options > sync > set up sync > i have an account > i don't have the device with me and fill in the appropriate information there.
afterwards perform the steps described at: Disable Firefox Sync on a lost phone or tablet
