Firefox-Hilfeforum

Hello,

Today I got a notification that wanted me to reset my profile for security reasons. I didn't know this change would require me to reset my password and that I would lose everything on my account. Is there a way to retrieve my account settings, such as bookmarks? Thanks.

I have two PC's linked via Sync. However, one computer, "Boomie" does everything I want, ie, I go to the website, and Firefox has remembered my login info, and it's been entered into the box and all I need to do is enter my password. On the other computer, "Littleman", the one I am typing this from, whatever website I go to, all my login info is blank and I need to choose from the saved Logins and Passwords. The Logins should already be there. These two computers are supposedly synced up. However, I dare not do anything l'est I make my other computer, "Boomie" start misbehaving like this computer does.

For example, if I login to Amazon from "Boomie" my login name is usually there, and then I can choose the Password from the saved Logins and Passwords. However, nothing is there.

Some websites I use have triple security on them, so that data should be entered into the boxes for me to type in my 3rd password. But I am forced to choose from the list of saved Logins and Passwords.

The question is, how do I make "Littleman" stop having me choose my login name every time I go to a frequently visited website ?

Hi,

Each time i start firefox on my laptop and syncing firefox, it shows a different location than my actual place that i am logging in(different country) . I was at the location roughly ten months ago.

I am setting up new devices and trying to sync my account across them. When I try to login I get a message saying it sent a verification code to my email address but I don't receive it. I try everything the support page says to no avail. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Email address is ... @charter.net. Thans Dave

Good morning,

I ended up having to get a new cell phone. I reinstalled Firefox beta and sync'd everything but none of my collections speared. I uninstalled / reinstalled a couple times but I cannot get my collections to sync. How are these sync'd to my new phone? If it was merely a few I'd start over but the number is more substantial.

Thank you!

'Hello, I am wondering how i can get my shortcuts and shortcut icons to be the same on my imac as they are on my mac air during sync? bold text

I want to sync my desktop and mobile login lists. I have Firefox 95.2.0 (2012-12-16) on my phone. And I have 95.0.2 on my desktop. Everything on mobile marked to synchronize. I've even manually clicked "sync"... Phone says everything was uploaded. But nothing is in the list on the desktop. When I tries to add a "new device" in preferences on desktop, I expect it to give me QR code. But it gives me instantly "Synchronization failed" instead. I'm tired to open list on phone and then type everything in on desktop. How can I fix the issue?

I gave hubby my Win 10 computer when I went to a Win 10 laptop. I signed in on his computer with his Firefox account and it synced all of my work bookmarks into his account. Crikey! How can two different computers with two different FF accounts sync automatically?? I tried everything including deleting user data for it then I formatted his hard drive and installed fresh Windows 10 and fresh FF and created a new login for him with new email address and it STILL synced to mine... all of my work project bookmarks are on his computer and his on mine. Mega blessings to whoever can help me fix this!

I read the recovery key instructions, they are not clear. I now assume that you're supposed to put the recovery key into the first field instead of a new password?

Anyway, my password is now reset, and I've lsot everything

I still have the old recovery key, is that in any way useful or am I completely and utterly fucked?

i can't sync data from old account, anyone have this problem?

(I changed computers, and I logged into my account on the new computer, but there is absolutely no data that I have synced before)

I have a problem with the Firefox sync browser You have downloaded a fresh copy of Windows and registered the account again on Firefox in order to sync previous data. No previous data was fetched. What is the solution to that? How do I access a previous sync on the Firefox website?

Please reply with help, thanks respectfully

Hello, i try using "send tab to device" but i can't seem to find it within the option, even when my device is already detected or is in sync already, this is from webpage to android. While there is an option on the phone which is a very long process which requires that my webpage open while i use my phone just to get the tab. All in all the main problem is that I can't see send tab to device option anywhere, nor do i find any other solution for this.

I got a new computer. I logged in on Firefox on the new computer but nothing has synced to the new computer. Did I do something wrong or is it not synced right. no bookmarks or nothing saved in other computer shows up.

Hello

Google has a service called "Takeout" through which users can download all of Chrome's synchronized data, including history and bookmarks, in a zip file.

Does Mozilla have such a service for Firefox sync?
