Strange passwords sync problem

more options

Hello, after my PC died and got a new one plus a new mobile it sync everything but my passwords. Strange thing is all passwords are still in my android tablet firefox, which I have connect and trying to sync, but with no luck so far. There are thousands of passwords there from many years and I'm afraid if tablet fails I will lost everything. BTW it cannot get/or send passwords from chrome or I could have shift passwords to other devices through chrome. Something change regarding passwords lately? Thanks in advance.

Chosen solution

OK I solved the problem myself, after trying everything, sing-in and out , remove master pass from firefox and waterfox in all devices, refresh the devices list and even disconnect two duplicates, then I thought to uninstall firefox from mobile device and reinstall. That did the trick for my mobile, I saw all my passwords appear after installation, and then I went to other devices and clicked sync now... everything is OK.. I had tried multiple times all those with no luck, except to disconnect duplicates and uninstall-reinstall.

Hello, it is not that someone tried to access my account, I didn't notice anything suspicious , just that some of my devices not sync my passwords. Unless you suggest that the password change will solve this problem, if yes I will try this. Thanks..
