I have several devices which run different systems. Whenever I sync in Firefox, Linux Firefox always syncs with other Linux firefox or Mac Firefox. Windows systems would have another set of bookmarks and user data. My windows devices cannot sync with firefox on other systems. Here's part of my error-sync-1575631489638.txt

I can't disable the marketing emails i get from firefox. They are addressed to my secondary e-mail adress i once had for my account. If i want to login using my secondary e-mail i get the notification "Primary account email required for sign-in". I also readded the e-mail adress as secondary, disabled all the e-mail notifications and removed it again to no avail. I'm pretty sure that these e-mails started after i checked the secondary e-mail on Firefox Monitor. I may have signed up for the notification service. So i to readded the sec. e-mail, logged in to Firefox Monitor, added the sec. e-mail to the breach alerts and deleted it once again. No success.

Firefox for Android doesn't sync password with Firefox on other platforms

Hi,
I am using Firefox for Android (68.2.1) on a Google Pixel 3 (Android 10) and I noticed that my saved passwords on Android are out of sync with the ones I have on other platforms. The saved passwords are properly synced between the following: - Firefox (70.0.1) - Firefox for iOS (20.2) - Firefox Lockwise on iOS (1.7.0) - Firefox Lockwise on Android (3.2.0)
On the Firefox for Android is out of sync. I don't know since when. But I have saved new passwords in both Firefox for Android and on the others platforms so now that they have forked, I am not sure how I can get both list of passwords to merge back together. Any suggestion?
Best regards,
Tom

Have tried several times, over the past 2-3 weeks, to get my yahoo.com email address confirmed by Firefox. It always takes at least 45 minutes to over an hour to hit my inbox.
It always arrives, just late. And since the code expires after only 5 minutes, it's always a fail.
Seriously though, only 5 minutes?! Are you kidding me? Over-zealous much? That's nuts.
I don't have this problem getting confirmed by any other site. I've done a half-dozen or more in the past couple of months.
Just sent myself an email from a gmail account, it hit my yahoo.com inbox in under a minute.
Can anyone out there, on the inside, lend a hand in getting me confirmed?

Hi, I have Firefox 68 (andoid) registered to Firefox Sync with all my credentials. Now I installed on linux Firefox 70, enabled sync for my account but credentials are no more synced. I think it is an issue due to a old Firefox account, created when there were no Firefox Lockwise.
I followed the migration guide but probably I was not able to understand the procedure: I
- disconnected sync on all my browsers
- sign in again from my android device with sync using the same email (I've read that is possible)
Help please!
PS: I tried to install Firefox Lockwise but credentials are empty for my account, despite I forced manually sync from my android.

I was fresh installing windows on my desktop but because i've always used mozilla i never actually checked my password. When i installed it after installing windows i couldn't remember my password so naturally i reset it . But then I noticed that all my bookmarks and saved passwords are gone ( i know why is this and it is totally understandable) so i checked my mozilla on my iphone where i used the same account. All the passwords and bookmarks are still there but i am logged out of the account. My question is if i log in with the current password on the iphone , will the data sync or it will be wiped because of the new password? Is there some way to extract the passwords and bookmarks form my iphone if the way i mentioned above wipes the data?

Hi there,
I'm running Firefox on OS X 10.15.1 and on Android 10.0. I am logged in to the same Firefox account on both devices and have sync enabled; however, when I try to access synced tabs on Firefox on desktop, I do not see my phone (in fact, I just have the menu that says to connect another device, which takes me to a page where I can text a link to my phone with the Firefox download link). Similarly, on my phone I do not see my desktop device listed. Both devices have the option to sync all content enabled. Can anyone please help? This is the last barrier that is keeping me from switching to Firefox full time, and I'd love to solve it.
I have reinstalled Firefox on both devices; and under my account settings I am able to see both the Desktop and Android versions of Firefox as registered devices under my account.

I did a Firefox restore due to suspect browser hijack ( it wasn't). All mu saved logins have been eraases so tried to do a manaul sync.
This pops up a yellow bar along the top of the "Logins and Paswords" page saying "Please enter your master password to view saved logics and passwords" . I don't have a master password set so that makes little sense. To the right of the yellow bar is a button "login". if i click the button ther yellow bar goes away but there is no log in dialog.

I usually want to sync my bookmarks from my laptop to my android phone. But sometimes I add 1 to the phone that I want to add to my laptop.

I have more than one computer with firefox on it and want to sync bookmarks and other settings but other machines do not have mail access. I keep my mail on one computer only. Been burnt by hackers and want to minimize access. Microsoft allows a code to be sent to cell phone for authorizations. Do you have a similar option? BTW how many times are you going to ask for verification on sync. Seems like it happens regularly.

Good day. Six months ago, I tried to create a Firefox account. But the letter for some reason did not come. I wrote in support, the account was not unblocked. The last hope for understanding. Unblock your account and allow you to confirm your email again.
