I just installed Linux mint on a new laptop, sync worked great but Mint added several Links on the tool bar and rearranged everything. I deleted the Mint stuff and tried to rearrange my toolbar back by syncing again but now all is screwed up. Any way to fix this !

Hi lupgaru , It sounds like you are experiencing the merge feature that Firefox Sync has by default. Unfortunately this cannot be changed. I will merge the bookmarks based on the structure of all of the computers attached to the account.

As a work around you might be able to copy the bookmarks from one computer that has them the way you want them organized and then add them to a new profile on the other devices: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/import-bookmarks-html-file
