no Firefox sync after system rebooting and FF reinstalation
After FF reinstallation I did not get my sync properly - no bookmarks etc, lost all my info. What happened?

It's makes sense, I have used my work desktop to syncronize with my notebook regullary, the company turned off the syn possibility few months ago, which makes it impossible to syncronize. Thats why I can not get my bookmarks - my foult, thought the data is beeing kept in a cloud. Thank you

Hi
Thank you for your question about the Firefox Sync service.
It appears from your question, that you are using Firefox Sync as a back up service. This is not what Sync is designed to do. The Firefox Sync service takes a copy of the data you wish to include and transfers it to a second device (typically a mobile device such as a tablet or a telephone) running a copy of Firefox. The storage in between all attached devices is both temporary and fragile and is not stable enough to be (and is not designed as) a reliable backup service.
If you have a copy of your Firefox profile for desktop Firefox, you may be able to recover your bookmarks and other data. Please have a read of this article.
If you have a copy of your data on a mobile version of Firefox, please follow these instructions to connect it to Firefox Sync to copy your data.
