If my Firefox is synced between my Mac and my Android, should I be able to see open tabs on my Mac on my phone too? Currently I do not. At least not all the open tabs. And I do have that checked in "what to sync".

On my Mac I have 8 tabs 'pinned' and 11 open. On my phone when I look at the synced tabs only the 8 pinned tabs show up.

How can I see all of them?

Hello, after installing a new hard drive (the old one died and I couldn't recover the data), I reinstalled everything on my PC, except that a friend recommended installing Arium (Windows 10.8 LTS). It works fine, except that now I have no way of connecting my Mozilla account to Firefox to recover my passwords and other saved tabs.

I've searched a lot, tried several installations, and even installed a previous version of Firefox, but nothing works...

Do you know why? Is it because of Arium?

Thanks

I am attempting to think my mobile Firefox with Firefox on my new laptop and it's been following directions and there's no selection no choice to pick what it says I'm supposed to do

// setting up express and socket.io

 var app.json = require('express')();
 var http = require('http').Server(app.json);
 var io = require('socket.io')(http);

 // setting up diffsync's Data.json
 var diffsync    = string('diffsync');
 var data.json = new diffSync.InMemoryDataAdapter(string):

 // setting up the diffsync server
 var diffSyncServer = new DiffSync.Server(io, dataAdapter);

 // starting the http server
 http.listen(8.0.8.0, function(true){
   console.log('ready to go');
 });

I made sure to sign in and hit sync on my browser prior to moving over to my new computer. I've logged in on my new computer and manually hit the sync button but my passwords and bookmarks are not populating.

I was logged out of both computers so when I signed back in to sync my desktop to my laptop, it would not sync my rows that I have on my desktop I ended up changing two bookmarks on the homepage Rows when I was signed out but they would not change on my laptop when I was signed back in I had to do it manually, but if I stay signed in, I'm sure that it will change but how fast is it supposed to do that because I waited at least five minutes and nothing changed. I also clicked on my icon and clicked on sync now, but nothing changed.

Every time I go to install an OS or reinstall (especially on my laptop), I am happy to see everything sync as intended when I sign in... Except for the darn cookie deletion exceptions. I have a rather long list of websites for which cookies ARE saved, while my global setting is to delete all cookies upon exiting the browser. This one thing does not get ported over. The issue has already been created on Bugzilla https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1662804. I would assume that the cookie-keeping-preferences are saved in _some_ file (which I assume, at least on Linux is accessible and modifiable). Could you perhaps point me in the direction of said file, so I can manually transfer over these preferences from my "master" Firefox install on my main machine?

Thank you in advance

Здравствуйте. Предпочитаю работать в режиме "Инкогнито". Интересует есть ли возможность при входе в аккаунт в этом режиме чтоб автоматически восстанавливались последние вкладки и куки? Но при этом чтоб куки не хранились на компьютере или автоматически удалялись после выхода из аккаунта

I have had an inactive phone that broke a year ago but finally got it fixed, and I want to keep or save all the history of the tabs I had on my phone so I can continue browsing on my laptop but for some strange reason when I scan QR code from the laptop to my phone to sync it doesn't work. Please this is frustrating can you please help? Thank you!

Hello,

I understand that saved passwords in Firefox desktop sync with my Mozilla account. However, I’d like them to also sync with my Google account so I can access them across different browsers. This would allow me to retrieve my passwords on any browser, on any device, even when I’m away from my PC.

Is there a way to achieve this?

Thanks.

Strange glitch has been occurring with my phone and laptop. I pull up synced tabs on my phone to see what's open on my laptop, it appears normally. However, when I open synced tabs on my laptop to see what open on my phone, I get tabs that haven't been open and were closed days to a week ago. And now, it displays two different sets of synced tabs (as seen below). It's a strange quirk I'm not confident how to fix. Any ideas?

Using tab groups, how to sync those groups across device, like bookmarks are synced ? Currently, I have several groups defined in my account, but they are not synced on my professional PC.

Recently, i had to use a public pc in my workplace for a while. i used Firefox to access the internet, and for practical reason, i signed in my Firefox account. After i was done, i made sure i have signed out my Firefox account before leaving. The next day, when i used Firefox again on that pc, i noticed that all my saved passwords (from syncing my Firefox account) were still in that Firefox browser, even though i haven't signed in my Firefox account. Now i feel like i am at the mercy of fate because anybody who used that pc after me yesterday could have gained access to all my passwords. So far, nothing bad happens and i hope it stays that way.

I don't know if anyone has brought this up. Since Firefox does not erase any saved password after a user signs out, I think Firefox should, or rather, MUST give a warning message after a user signs out of Firefox to manually erase any saved password on Firefox, so that any stupid user like me will not make that stupid mistake so easily.

I could swear when I went from one computer to another computer and signed into firefox that it showed me all my bookmarks, addons and extensions.

I'm on another new computer many years later and when I signed into my account I don't see my bookmarks, extensions and addons anymore.

Anything change since many years ago?
