Firefox iOS is not syncing! It is claiming that Firefox on my iMac desktop has no open tabs while clearly that is not the case, because I can see them! What to do? I am clearly connected through the same acct because a new profile picture displays properly in Firefox iOS!

Hi WIllemT , Thank you for your question, I understand that Firefox for IOS is not syncing the tabs from your desktop computer. I am happy to help.

From the desktop follow these steps after making sure that Tabs are checked in the Sync Settings:

  1. Tools > Sync Now

From the mobile:

  1. Send a tab from your phone.
  2. Wait a minute.
  3. Tools > Sync Now on your desktop.

It can take up to 5 minutes. Thanks!
