So I moved from my old Galaxy S21 Ultra into a new Xiaomi 17 ultra.

Installed Firefox and logged in with the qr code thing on my main computer.

Firefox on the phone says it's synced but the list of passwords is empty. Not a single password in the list. Lots of passwords on the main computer.

This worked just fine on the old S21 Ultra.

Any ideas?

This is a completely fresh install on a new phone so not to be ungrateful, the typical good advice about clearing cache and reinstalling is just not relevant here.

Well, I don't know how I did it, but:

I'm trying to sync my Firefox between 2 PCs. I had trouble with it, and now the situation is: a) my source PC asks me to create a new profile as it spits the dummy on my existing one; it does not offer me the option of creating a new account b) my destination PC does the same. In both cases, when I choose the "Sync and save data" menu option, then enter my email, I get the message: "This profile was previously synced to a different account. To keep your data...To sign in using <email address>, create a new profile." Creating a new profile does not have all the configuration and info that I have in my current profile.

It would be nice if I could reset everything back to square one with the sync process. Does anyone have a good suggestion?

i have synced everything and 3 days ago when i restarted my pc and launched firefox everything was deleted and i had to login to my account and firefox saw it as a new pc today it hapenned again after pc restart and i have like 4 same pc with open cards and i cant back them back i have to launch everything by hand and i dont want it to happen again had no problem for 4 years of using

I'm signed in on both the mobile and desktop app with the same account, sync is on for both of these, but the sync is not actually happening. None of my passwords or history is accessible in the mobile app. It also seems to not save any history at all because I keep having to type in whole web addresses instead of the app filling in the rest itself, even though I've visited these websites many times. There's no error in the settings or anything, it's just not working properly.
