why doens't android firefox sync ?

Hello, I have a question and don't know how to fix it. Is there any ways to have similiar shortcuts in home page in my all devices, because by syncing it doesn't help. Unfortunately I don't want to add all shortcuts manually.

Hi. I realised that a couple weeks ago bookmarks on my Samsung S24 Ultra stopped syncing. Bookmarks added, edited, moved or deleted on the phone since then don't change elsewhere and vice versa. Other devices (two Windows computers) sync just fine. I changed nothing in the settings nor did any other important changes I'm aware of. Passwords, history and tabs sync correctly. I tried going with this on my Android Firefox app: uncheck syncing everything -> log out from Firefox account -> force stop Firefox -> clear app cache -> restart phone -> start Firefox -> log in to Firefox Account -> check syncing everything -> force sync. Didn't help. I didn't clear app data or reinstall the app because I would lose all the bookmarks I added there recently. The only way I see is to look through all the bookmarks in my phone and add them manually on the PC, then reinstall the app - which would be as painstaking as it sounds. I switched to Firefox Beta and it syncs just fine (some minor changes I've noticed compared to the basic app are rather annoying but negligible). Any tips? Cheers, Rafau

Hi! I recently lost my old laptop and I'm trying to setup my new laptop without a backup. I was logged into my mozilla account on my old browser before I lost it, but I'm not seeing any of my old tabs, bookmarks, and extensions from my old browser syncing to my new browser. Is there anything I can do to retrieve this data without having access to my old laptop? Thank to anyone who can help!

I recently switched to a new laptop and signed in to Firefox Sync. Bookmarks and passwords restored fine, but tabs didn’t reopen. I had important pages saved from sites like medithrivehub.com for product research, and I really need them back.

Is there a way to recover synced tabs that didn’t show up automatically? Any help would be appreciated.

I have Firefox on 4 separate devices (Windows 10, Windows 11, Linux Ubuntu derivative x 2).

For the last 2 weeks, every time I open Firefox, the recommended stories are active. I go into settings, turn off the setting and it behaves correctly for that session. However, when I open Firefox on a different device, or the next time, recommended stories are showing once again. I like and want a clean, minimalist interface, and expect Firefox to honour my settings.

Thank you.

Lately I installed a new PC, and tried to download FireFox and sync my data. But my data seems like a few years ago, not as new as another PC I have now. I'm sure I have logged in with same account on them, how's this happend?

When following the instruction to sync bookmarks on Android phone it leads me to items that are not there. Open Firefox mobile on phone. Ok. Hit the 3 dots drop down. Ok. Choose sync and save. Not there? I click my email and it shows sync. I click that and it shows the last time I sync my phone. 0 minutes. Ok. It shows a QR code to scan from the Firefox app. It instructs to click ready to scan. That's not there either. If instructions lead you down paths that are not present, the instructions are useless. Anyone else having this experience? Thanks..........

I have Firefox on my desktop and my laptop (and my phone). I just spent hours on the laptop updating new passwords, deleting duplicates and entries that were not relevant. Went from over 500 to 471 entries. Feeling good! Today I did work on the desktop and noticed the desktop password list had not sync'd to the laptop, and had 493 entries, all of which had the old/original passwords. Feeling a little suspicious about that the account had not sync'd. I had to log into and reset the password for my business email (which I had not changed the password for previously). When I updated that in the password list on my desktop, I had a moment of dread thinking that might be a problem, having updated each different computer's password list without a proper sync. Well, I went right down to my laptop and my worst fear was confirmed. All the updating I had done the prior week was overwritten by the desktop (old) password list. All of the old duplicate entries and irrelevant accounts are back.

Apparently the sync only is working in one direction??? Is there a solution to this please????

No matter what I try I can’t get my bookmarks to transfer from my laptop to my phone. What am I doing wrong? My folders transferred to my phone, but the folders are empty

My Windows PC laptop has stopped syncing bookmarks from my android phone, even though I set them up to sync with each other. The syncing suggestions under Firefox support for syncing do not match with the options on my laptop or android phone.

Hello, I had checked the option to open all previous tabs at every startup of firefox. Then I logged in to my account, which evidently had in the previous settings of the previous browser that option disabled. Guess which configuration held the priority to impose itself. Why the old one of course. So I lost most (why not all? I can't tell) of my tabs. The recovered ones were recovered through ctrl+shift+t. Thank you.

just setting up new PC . I have been using firefox for many years across a dozen different devices . Usually I dont have problems but firefox on this pc is not working correctly
