I have a Motorola Moto g Play 2023 Android phone with Firefox installed and set as my default browser. However, I can not view any tabs from my phone on my PC and the sync function on my phone's browser is refusing to sync. I have logged out and logged back in, I have gone though my settings in my phone, I have tried many different things and have not found a solution. Maybe there is something you might know that I haven't thought of?

Hi, I'd love some help with this issue please. I have just bought a new Surface laptop and enabled sync from my desktop. But many of the bookmarks and none of the bookmark folders came across. I uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox but with the same result. I have an old Surface laptop that the new one is replacing and the syncing has worked perfectly on that. Any help would be really appreciated. Cheers, Graham

I reinstalled the Firefox app on my android phone and I am not able to sync the phone now with my account info and bookmarks. Scanning the barcode to sync from my phone does not work. It does not respond at all. Manually entering my email and password does not work either as it says I have the incorrect password when inputting the code sent by email.

It seems I have been logged out of Sync just now with no reason and I have already tried to log in using email just about 5 or 6 times, but always as I enter code from email I end up with the message on screenshot («Something get wrong...»). I was able to successfully log in through web portal but this does not help as I need to look up my Synchronized tabs. I am currently out of home — that's why I can't use QR code...

How to fix this issue?

I am ready to experience several inconveniences due to relatively small user base and undefinancing of development, but gosh, this is really too much.

iOS 15.8.3, FF Version 133.2.

A couple of months ago I started having a bunch of issues with the iOS app simultaneously. First I couldn't get my tabs to sync. Then I signed out and had a hard time signing back in-- it just wouldn't work. Now I am finally signed in, but the app isn't working like it used to. I haven't been able to sync tabs since then now matter how many times I try. It still shows tabs for stuff I read months ago. I can't send tabs from desktop to my phone (but I can send from my phone to desktop with no issues). Finally, the tabs are all weird now-- they are huge (see pic).

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling 20 or 30 times. I'm considering going back to Safari because the main reason I use Firefox is for phone/desktop connectivity and it just isn't working anymore. Any ideas?

but, when I run Firefox, even after login on firefox sync, I have ......... nothing: - no passwords - no bookmarks - no preferences

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

Firefox 135 on Linux (Ubuntu) and latest Firefox on Android. All sync items are checked. Passwords sync, and bookmarks toolbar syncs, but not bookmarks in folders appear - they're just not there.

Because the bookmarks toolbar is synced it confirms that Bookmarks are checked under sync on both devices.

My firefox app has recently stopped showing any synced tabs from my desktop at all. I have had this issue happen before but usually it's just for a little while and fixes itself, or can be fixed by manually syncing both mobile and desktop simultaneously. But I have not been able to access my desktop tabs via my phone for almost a week now and it's getting extremely frustrating. I want to be able to leave my house and continue browsing without having to struggle for 10 minutes before leaving with ensuring the sync goes through. When i manually sync on the mobile app, the sync button keeps spinning forever, I have let it run for about 25 minutes straight with no results. I have force closed the app to no luck. I have also tried closing and leaving it alone for hours and trying again with no results. I have even restarted both my phone, and my computer. This was not happening to me a week ago and I have not changed any settings on either device since the change started. It is genuinely making me want to go back to chrome, which I haven't used in 2 years since making the switch.
