I recently bit the bullet and am transferring from chrome to firefox. I was able to transfer my hundreds of book marks from chrome into desktop firefox, but I cannot get them on my phone. I saw one user suggest doing a "sync now" to force it, but when I tab "sync now" nothing happens and it continues reading "Last synced: Never" and I am logged into the same accounts on desktop and mobile.

How do I get this to work?

I am using Firefox on an amazon fire HD 10 tablet. The When I try to sync, a new tab opens and the activity indicator spins but nothing ever syncs or logs in to my account. I checked and triple checked all the settings and everything is setup to allow syncing but it acts as though amazon is blocking it from logging in.

Is there anything I can do to fix this issue.

In firefoxe's documents, please ...

  • provide summary of what needs to be achieved before syncing can take place (there are many ways to sync and almost as many ways to cause corruption of the data ... (don't make us guess and do trial and error
  • does syncing of the devices have to be with all the devices at the same time?
  • which device has the master base. I have assumed my PC contains the master data base.
  • If I press sync now, will the device I am on sync to the master ... or will the other devices sync to my current device. Push or pull?
  • If another device was updated last, does it override all other devices? If a login and password were removed after it was changed on my current device, does that override my current device.
  • Are the any known sources of corruption of the data base?
  • Can only one device, the current one device edit the data base.
  • Must all devices remain connected even when not syncing?
  • Please mark documents when predicated... and point to the latest.
  • If I have multiple computers, do your answers still hold?
... I am have lots of corruption problems...

Android Firefox app can no longer sync. (A 10)

It suddenly logged me out, and I can log in, but I never get to set up the app, nor does it stay logged in. Deleting all app data an downloading a new copy has only made stuff worse. The log in photo of squiggly stamp no longer works either, I still have to do the annoying and slow, buggy 3 point log in, I log in, but I never get to sync. Is Firefox history too now, just like Thunderbird?

Trying to sync Android firefox app with laptop. Firefox Android app installed. Check. Open android settings, turn on sync. Check. QR code on laptop screen. Check. Touch "scan" button at lower frame of Firefox

    Android app, scan code on laptop. Check.

Error message: "Did you use the system camera? You must pair from within a Firefox app." No, I did not use system camera. Yes, I did activate it from the firefox app/scan button - REPEATEDLY. Somehow, firefox does not recognize it's own activation of my system camera. Please help, I need the bookmarks off my phone and onto laptop. Thank you.
