Trying to sync to Firefox on my desktop and it's not giving me the sync and save data option on my phone. How do I sync the too? I want my passwords to update between both and it doesn't and it's been an ongoing issue.

When trying to sync Firefox on my phone, the second step is to go to the menu, and tap sync and save data. However there is no button like that on my android version of Firefox.

Trying to sync Firefox on a Win11 desktop and an iPhone 11. The menu on the iPhone does not have a “Sync and save data” to tap. I can’t get to “ready to scan”. To hold my iPhone over the code. Suggestions appreciated.

I'm trying to sync data from my computer to my phone. When I go to the settings, there is NO "sync and save data " option on my phone. So, how then do I sync and save?

Hi,

I have tried to sync between my two computers, but it did not work out well:

e.g when I click on ‘show more bookmarks (>>)’ on the right side of the screen (next to Other Bookmarks) I get - Firefox is not responding and I have to click on

-> Close the program.

If I click on -> Wait for the program to respond - Firefox never responds! And before I click on -> Close the Program - my keyboard input is totally erratic!

This occurs on both computers! - what can I do…..

I have therefor on the computer I want to be on the receiving end:

- deleted: History, Downloads and Tags and All Bookmarks - Cleared browsing data and cookies - Closed all open tabs

And now I am Signed in with Syncing; ON - on both computers again.

But I have not checked any of the check-boxes in ‘Manage sync…’ - ‘Manage what syncs on all your connected devices’ i.e. Bookmarks, Passwords, settings, History, Payment methods, Open tabs, Add-ons

Why is there no check-box tag groups!

What do I have to do on my SOURCE compute and on the DESTINATION computer for - a one way sync of everything?

Best regards, Einar

PS,

After Signing in I was presented with the following, and I chose Not Now

Sync your Firefox experience View your saved passwords, tabs, browsing history and more — across all your devices. Select an option to continue:

- I already have Firefox for mobile Start your sync now if you already have Firefox on your mobile device. 

- I don’t have Firefox for mobile Download Firefox on your mobile device, then start your sync.

Not now

Im trying to syc my dsta with anew desktop computor. It tellsme on my mobile device in Firefox go to menu and shows the 3 bars. I dont see that in Firefox mobile. I see three dots but there is no place in there that says syc and save data

Hi all, There is a bug regarding the "Manage Bookmarks" in Firefox (Android - version 133.0.3).

Despite being sorted accordingly on PC and synchronized, the mobile version of Firefox for bookmarks are scrambled (see attached image).

On mobile Firefox, it looked like it was sorted according to the "recently added" bookmarks.

To add on for more details, expected results according to the PC version of "Bookmarks Manager", it should have been displayed this way on Android Firefox:

• Desktop Bookmarks
• Folder
• Link 1
• Link 2
• Link 3
• Link 4
• Link 5
• Webtoon
• Twitter

And so on.

I am trying to sync my laptop with my iPhone. I am told to open Firefox on the phone, open the menu and go to Synchronise and Save Data. It's not there, nothing remotely like it on the first page or under Settings. There's no Privacy and Security heading either. So how do I do it?

In the instructions says if you want to pair the device is to open Firefox on Android, press the "3 dots button" and click Ready to Scan button, but if I do that there is no such option there at all.

I am doing this signed-in into my Mozilla account.

Thanks in advance, Tadej Peršič from Slovenia 🇸🇮

Sync instructions on desktop browser include: Sync Firefox on your phone or tablet 1. Open Firefox on your mobile device. 2. Go to the menu ( on iOS or on Android) 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" that I can see on menu

I cannot find "Sync and save data" button in my mobile browser, making it impossible to sync the devices. The instructions provided by the settings lead me into the dead end.

Hello, after installing a new hard drive (the old one died and I couldn't recover the data), I reinstalled everything on my PC, except that a friend recommended installing Arium (Windows 10.8 LTS). It works fine, except that now I have no way of connecting my Mozilla account to Firefox to recover my passwords and other saved tabs.

I've searched a lot, tried several installations, and even installed a previous version of Firefox, but nothing works...

Do you know why? Is it because of Arium?

Thanks
