I’m running Firefox 131.4 (46621) on my iPhone 12.

I’m setting up a new Mac, and I’m trying to sync the freshly installed Firefox (132.0.1 aarch64) with my other FF instances.

The sync instructions ask if I have FF for mobile, then provide a QR code and give these instructions: 1. Open Firefox on your mobile device. 2. Go to the menu /// on iOS and tap «Sync and save data» 3. Tap «Ready to scan» and hold your phone over this code

There is *no* «Sync and save data» menu item, and I can’t find any other location where I might scan a QR code.

Er, help?

I have quite a lot of passwords stored in my iPhone. I would like to sync (or, if not possible, export) these passwords to my Firefox browser on the same iPhone.

Many thanks!

Sync collections after Android factory reset, have Firefox on desktop that is synced, but the new Android install synced bookmarks but not collections, of which i have many, or did.

I'm sure I've just missed a step, but been reading for 3 weeks now .... any idea's?

The subject says it all.

Catastrophic Macbook failure where I had to reboot the entire system. Luckily my phone still was signed into my Firefox account so I thought my bookmarks were safe. When I redownloaded and signed into Firefox from my Macbook I had no Bookmarks, no backup file, clicked sync, nothing happened. I still had all my bookmarks on my iPhone Firefox there and tried sync there.

Instead of syncing all my existing bookmarks or giving me a warning I was going to sync my Macbook(missing all bookmarks) to my iPhone(still had all bookmarks) it sync'd to now the iphone having no bookmarks, account passwords or cookies.

I have read through all the articles, I have tried to contact any support. Please help.

Thanks, Garrrett

I bought a new android (Samsung) tablet. I want to sync all the tabs I have on my Windows PC to the tablet. I am not tech savvy.. further, why can't the Firefox page that shows all my saved tabs and bookmarks look the same on my tablet? sheesh...

The instructions are wrong and convoluted. How can I scan a QR code if it is on the iOS device???????? Mozilla just doesn't know how to get around the iOS limitations.

I will no longer use firefox on my iPAD if I can't sync my bookmarks from my Android/Windows bookmarks.

I have just reactivated a (duplicate) computer which I have only used 2 or3 times in the last year. I have been asked to re-input my Firefox password. Now it wants me to sync Firefox with my (android) phone.

For some reason, Firefox has not been installed on my phone, although other browsers that I have never previously heard of seem to have auto-installed themselves.

I have tried to download the "no fuss" version of Firefox, but it is asking for credit card details. Other browsers allowed me to skip this step, but Firefox will not allow me to proceed, and does not provide a "skip" facillity.

I ABSOLUTELY REFUSE to allow my credit card details to be stored on my phone or in a browser. Storing the credit card data would not confer any advantage, because I have multiple credit cards, and I select the card for each transaction according to my location, the currency being billed, and whether the card offers cashback or loyalty points for the type of transaction I am making.

Has anybody else encountered this problem ?

Firefox recently crashed on my PC and i had to restart from an old Bookmarks HTML file i had. the Bookmarks were from 2 months ago and my mobile is still in present Bookmark mode. how can i get the Bookmarks from my phone to sync with my PC, so as not to replace my mobile with the PCs "new" bookmarks?

thanks much

For some reason accounts/passwords are not syncing on Firefox across my iPhone and MacBook. I have both signed into the account and have set up sync but it is not sharing across the devices.

Windows corrupted my user profile so I lost everything... how do I get my bookmarks from Firefox iOS to my desktop PC?

When I sign into my desktop Firefox it has nothing - I am worried if I sync my iOS firefox it will delete all my bookmarks?

Does anyone know what causes Sync to fail in Firefox? I’m signed in on two devices with 6 to 9 tabs max open. My tabs don’t sync or send from one device to another properly. My history also doesn’t work. I just visited a site 2 minutes ago and all I see in my history is sites I visited 12 hours ago. I’m at my wits’ end and ready to find another browser. Please help if possible.

I setup sync, the device paired. It said it was syncing and when finished the bookmarks folder looked totally different on my kindle fire. I can not find any of the recently added bookmarks on the kindle. The History and Open Tabs are still the same, I didn't have those selected for sync. I checked and one password that I knew was previously incorrect on the kindle got updated to the correct one from the desktop. But I am worried about any possible passwords that were only on the kindle or were correct on the kindle and incorrect on the desktop, based on the bookmarks I suspect those were lost also. I was worried about this and had tried to find the profile data on the kindle but no file manager helped, I couldn't find it anywhere. And there doesn't seem to be a way to access profile manager on android. I also poked around with adb with no success. I was hoping to make a backup before using sync but I gave up and did sync anyway. Is there anyway to recover this data?
