I use Firefox on many computers in many locations and they all use the account sync feature. However, at one location, a school, there's a filtering system in place called Securly. To get through the school filters, you have to download a certificate and install it. I do that, and web browsing works fine. But, syncing does not work. It's as if the syncing feature doesn't use the installed certificate. So, to sync, I have to use my phone hot-spot from time-to-time. It's a big pain, however, when I've set or changed a password at the school and expect it to be available in all my other computers but I've forgotten to do the manual sync before I left. Is there a way to get the sync process to use the installed certificate?

Thanks!

bold text WHY THE FOOK DOES NOT MOZILLA BOOKMARK SYNC NEVER WORKS???

Lately, mobile firefox has messed up everything. If i look at bookmarks, theyre mostly there, but arrangement is nonsense. Not alphabetical, not in any order. just thrown in randomly into bookmark folder it looks like. VERY HARD to find any bookmarks.

Bookmarking stuff on desktop, then going to phone and trying to sync bookmarks, having to log out and relog in to mozilla sync for about 10 times on both mobile and desktop, and at some point it randomly might sync bookmarks, but if it does, it also messes them up. and impossible to find anything in bookmarks.

Seems almost like someone took a bookmark files in hand and shuffles them a lot, and then placing back, to mix up their order totally.

WHY?

Ive been using mozilla for years and years now, but lately in past 2 years, mozilla, especially mobile version, is NON WORKING PIECE OF CRAP...

So fed up with this issue im too freaking tired to explain it better. SYNC DOES NOT WORK, AND WHEN IT DOES IT MESSES UP EVERY BOOKMARKS ORDER, PLACING OLDEST AS NEWEST AND SECOND OLDEST INTO MIDDLE PART, NEWEST INTO SOMEWHERE IN BETWEEN, scrolling trough all 100 bookmarks to find the latest one you just added, makes no sense whatsoever.

Hello,

I recently reinstalled Windows on my computer and expected Firefox to sync and restore my saved passwords, as I had enabled Firefox Sync before reinstalling. However, after syncing my account, my passwords did not appear, and I am unable to access them.

I have already tried the following steps:

   Checked the sync status of my Firefox account.
   Ensured that I am signed into the correct Firefox account on my browser.
   Searched for any relevant troubleshooting steps but haven't been able to resolve the issue.

Could you please assist me in restoring my saved passwords or provide any guidance on how I can retrieve them?

Thank you for your help.

Best regards, Tameem

I installed a new Windows 10, then I installed the latest version of Mozilla Firefox v133 and there's no sync option in this version 🤔 What is the problem?

I want to recover my bookmarks and passwords

Any solution?

As you can see in the picture

Hello,

Earlier today I reformatted my device but when I logged in to firefox I can only see my history is getting synced my bookmarks are empty, I've checked and bookmarks are check off and they should be synced. How do I get them to sync? It has worked fine in the past. Thanks.

Hello, I reinstalled win 10 on my pc and Wien i logged back into my account sync is working but no passwords, adds, bookmarks are loaded, so I have the most important question, what am I supposed to do? Thanks

Dzień dobry, po zmianie urzadzenia (PC) pomimo tego ze na starym urzadzeniu zawsze byłem zalogowany do Firefoxa (synchronizacja byla automatyczna), to na nowym urządzeniu po zalogowaniu nie mam dostepu do wczesniej zapisanch zakladek oraz haseł. Prosze o pomoc, pozdrawim D.

I have Firefox synced on two laptops. In the sidebar menu, when I look at tabs, I see tabs from the other device, but when I look at bookmarks, I only see bookmarks from the device I'm on. Neither can I see synced bookmarks in Manage Bookmarks. In the Settings, in "Manage what syncs on all your connected devices", I have Bookmarks checked. How do I see my synced bookmarks?

I'm attempting to set up Firefox in a newly installed OS and have logged into my Sync account. Many aspects seem to be loaded in, but the status via the Settings is stuck at "Syncing..." despite waiting several hours. Quitting Firefox results in a crash window popping up.

There are no files in the weave/logs directory. The weave/failed directory has multiple json files; most almost completely empty. addons.json has an ID, but that's pretty much it.

Deleting the .mozilla directory and starting over yielded no change in behavior.

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

I sync tabs with multiple devices, but I cannot get my tabs to sync with my iPad. I have tried scanning the QR code from my desktop browser. I have tried entering the password. The process never finishes on the iPad, even after the desktop browser said the process was complete.

I recently reset my laptop, when I logged into my mozilla account on my firefox, it is hasn't synced my passwords, hisotry, bookmarks and extensions. The sync is on, I've eevn tried to manually initiate sync. Did not work.

I follow the instructions on how to Sync and save data on my mobile, but there is no option in the options as described. I am logged in on both the phone and desktop.

So I asked a question already about my browser, not syncing to my laptop properly or at least I don't think it is. It's the bookmarks on the homepage I have the rows of bookmarks where I just double click and go to my website that I want. Well, when I got my laptop, I downloaded Firefox and I synced everything to my laptop and it worked great including all my bookmarks in the rows. but now it just won't sync the bookmarks I have in the ROWS i have on the home page I would hate to delete the browser and then reinstall just have all my bookmarks in the rows that I want. I waited a whole day and a half to see if it would sync and it would not. Why is this the only part not syncing all my other bookmarks sync up including my passwords I also checked the settings in Firefox and everything I want has the box check marked. Also, I don't know how to reply back to anybody who helps me. The examples of the picture these are the types of bookmarks I'm talking about if I change it on my desktop, it will not change on my laptop.

I installed firefox on other PC and I logged in with my account. Despite having synchronization for passwords, bookmarks, etc., I can't sync my data on my new PC. Why is that?
