I have synced my previous account on old Firefox. After which I have changed my hard disk and installed new system and Firefox. I have login to my account but my previous browsers bookmarks, password etc. data has been lost. What can I do. I don't have my previous hard disk with me.

Please suggest some way to backup my data.

My passwords were saved on my laptop and they are not available any more even after I have signed in to my Firefox account. They seem to be gone now after the latest firefox update. How to get the saved username/password back?

In my home, I have a computer with linux OS, so of course with my firefox signed with my firefox account; on the other hand in my job I have a computer with W10 OS: if I'm signing in in It (firefox on windows), search engines is not working, after that If I execute troubleshot mode that working only this moment (in the next restart It is not working). If I'm using firefox signout account, after that It is working perfect!!!

Is there a problem (with signed firefox account in different OS)?

Thanks! I love using Mozilla Firefox!

Hey, today i migrated to another laptop, i had forgotten Firefox password so i reset the password. according to the popup message by Firefox some data could be lost but i have lost all my data from bookmark to my passwords which was my last 5 years work. I really need those passwords can anyone help, please?

Thank you to Ultraviolet for responding to my question. I tried to find out if my laptop had the synch feature turned on but could not find a location for this. I clicked on synch sign in and received a message another user has signed on. Do you want to synch this device - or something similar to that. I should have written it down when I had the laptop turned on. I was not sure if I wanted to continue so I logged out. All of the bookmarks on the laptop are on the desktop except for one folder which has quite a few websites listed - websites I do not want to lose.

Would it be safe to continue on the laptop when the question comes up? Is the synching going from the laptop to the desktop? I am a senior and do not have a lot of computer tech knowledge.

When I checked my desktop, I found a section that told me that synch was on. I could not find something similar on the laptop.

I installed Linux OS and now I am trying to get my bookmarks and passwords from my previous Firefox browser and Edge, but it is not syncing. I would be happy to have your opinions and solutions. Thank you!

Добрый день. Не могу войти в свой аккаунт ... @gmail.com . Стоит двухэтапная аутентификация, и я не помню свой десятизначный пароль от входа. А приложение для аутентификации было удалено, и код узнать не могу. Можно ли через почту ... @gmail.com как-то восстановить вход в аккаунт?

Trying to open the Firefox sessions that I have open on my Old Synced Mac on my New Synced Mac and nothing is happening. How do I duplicate the sessions that are open already on my Old Mac on my New Mac?

I have a desktop using Windows 7 and a laptop using Windows 10.

For some reason, a folder containing several bookmarked websites disappeared from my desktop bookmark side panel. That folder is on my laptop so all is not lost.

My question is which computer should I be at when pressing the synch button? I want the folder containing the websites to be on my desktop as well as my laptop.

Not every time but very often when i log onto my PC and get on Firefox my account shows as disconnected. I will log in again and it always thinks i am logging in from a new device. i am not using a VPN or anything and also all sites all think i am singing in from a new device. it is so annoying and i do not know how to fix it. i work on a private network and don't have anything set up that would change my IP location or anything. no idea why this is happening and i would love some help

Hai my name is Z and im hoping to find some help from someone. I was sorta forced to reset my computer after it couldnt auto repair itself. Once it loaded back up and looked over everything that was deleted and everything that it kept and firefox was one, however i did notice that it didnt have the "old firefox data" folder like it has had when ive reset my computer by choice in the past. So i assume my bookmarks, themes, history, and most importantly my saved passwords are gone for good? This makes me not want to use Firefox anymore and i probably wont unless my stuff can be pulled back up because i really needed those passwords and bookmarks.

Hi

This is not a bug, just more of a feature request. Every time when I sync an account to a new device, I got a popup to sync another device and afterwards I get a mail on how to complete my sync setup and sync another device. I'd have no problem with it, if this is my first device that I am trying to sync. But I have several devices with the sync enabled, I am syncing from these devices and Mozilla knows this as it has history of devices where I was signed in and it can see that there are data to be synced so apparently this is not the first device you are trying to sync. Can we have an option to dismiss these messages and popups forever?

Thanks

My laptop just came back from the shop after a hard drive crash and Ive had to reinstall everything. I just reinstalled firefox, signed in and synced but its not got any of my bookmarks, saved passwords/logins, add ons or history. I tried to do the Import and Restore but there is nothing in there. I checked the profiles, there are two, profile:defualt-release and profile:default. Neither have any bookmarks, saved logins etc. I've been using firefox for years and have synced it before and it worked then. I chose firefox specifically so that I could just restore all my stuff in the event of a crash but now I can't find any of it. Is there any other way to get all my saved stuff back? Any advice would be greatly appreiated! thanks.

I recently and stupidly lost access to my 2FA app. I am not hopeful that I will regain access and would just like to delete my old Firefox account so that it isn't there to be abused.

Is there any way to do this?

Thanks!
