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:
And so on.

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

If I have edited the passwords file and bookmarks file and saved them to a folder via export feature. When I import the edited file into firefox how can I make that the master file and not have the other instances of firefox sync all the old data back to the master one I edited? For instance I have FF on android, linux and windows, if I import the edited file to the windows instance what is to stop the linux from syncing back to the windows machine? I have had this happen previously where a newer instance of firefox overwrote the bookmarks and password files. Will I have to delete all bookmarks and passwords and import them from the new edited file on each device?
