I have two profiles, one for work and one for my personal in the same account. I need to sync both of my profiles but do not want the information in the two profiles mixed together. I need to sync the information as I have a desktop and a laptop that I use for work, and mobile devices and another laptop for personal matters. If I am on work travel and need to access my personal profile on my laptop (because schlepping two machines is silly!), I want to switch my profile to the personal one. then when I am done I want to switch back to the work profile. How can I do this and is firefox set up to do this?

Firefox account keeps search history even though only bookmark sync is turned on. I logged out from firefox mobile, deleted firefox mobile, reinstalled firefox mobile, relogged in to firefox mobile and I see again the search history. How can I remove permanently the search history and how can I disable permanently search history saving even though only bookmark sync is turned on?

I cannot find the menu item on my mobile device to sync my Firefox account. When I select "menu" it doesn't have that as an option; it only shows me other topics I have used Firefox to search.

Until a few days ago, when I shared tabs from my mobile device to my desktop, it opened in a new tab or tabs in the active window on my desktop. Now all of the shared tabs are opening in their own window. Is there a way to adjust this in Settings?

I have used Firefox as primary browser on my Mac for many years — never Safari.

Until yesterday, I used Safari as the only browser on my iPhone.

I now see all my Safari bookmarks in the iPhone’s new Firefox browser, but not the important open Safari tabs.

How can I sync my iPhone Safari web page tabs to Firefox on both devices, and sync the Mac’s open Firefox web page tabs to iPhone Firefox?

Like many I was confused about the recent message regarding the free VPN which is being rolled out. I have no ICON in Firefox, and whilst I now understand that this is because it is being rolled out gradually, I did initially try a couple of things to try to find it. One of these was to sign in to my account, however, when I did this my browser went crazy. Loads of bookmarks disappeared, as did all the folders that I had these filed in, and loads of very old redundant bookmarks that I had long ago deleted were back. It seems that Firefox synced with 'something', but as I only ever use Firefox on this PC, I don't know what. Also, the browser no longer worked - I could search for anything and I got results, but I got a crash message if I clicked on any of them. Using Edge to search instead, I discovered how to roll back a sync, so I did that and now Firefox is back to normal with all my current bookmarks, history etc.. Obviously I am not inclined to sign in to my account again for fear of this happening again. I assume that when the free VPN finally becomes available to me I will need to sign in. My question then is: is there a way of signing in to my account without initiating a sync of any kind so that my browser stays as it is? (I am actually using Edge to ask this question as I couldn't pose it without signing in and didn't want to risk doing that in Firefox!)

Hello, I have multiple devices using Firefox on the same network, and whenever using them at the same time, I get an additional Firefox icon in my doc which will open whatever tab is up on the other device. I was not signed in to any account on either device, yet it is still sharing tab data across devices.

I then created an account and signed in on one device and disabled every Sync option I could find, but still the sharing is enabled over local network. How do I disable this so there is no communication between the two devices?

Device 1 - MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Early 2015) macOS Monterey 12.7.6 Firefox Version 149.0.2

Device 2 - MacBook Pro 14-inch, 2023 macOS Sequoia 15.4.1 Firefox Version 149.0.2 Local Network access disabled for Firefox in macOS settings

It doesn't seem like this should even be possible given that local network access is disabled for the one device, and neither device is logged into a mozilla account.

Can someone please help me disable this functionality?

I have a Windows 7 desktop with Firefox 115.35.0esr (64-bit) which was just updated today. I also have a Windows 11 laptop with Firefox 150.0 (64-bit). Now all of a sudden all of my bookmarks have been combined. The ones that were on the laptop are now on my desktop and vice versa. I started deleting the ones on the desktop that were from the laptop and they started to be automatically deleted from my laptop. How do I stop this from happening.
