I did not see the topics with the accounts here, so I pushed this question here.Is the ip from which the firefox account was registered saved?

I purchased a new device, but the bookmarks are not syncing like it has on prior devices. I have confirmed all setting are exactly as they were previously. No matter what I try, I can't get my bookmarks to join me on my new device. Is this a known bug?

I like FF Sync and I like using the Master Password I set up in Options. I use them on all my machines. But why does FF have to constantly ask me my Master Password (MP) every time I boot up? I'm usually drilling down into my bookmarks tree trying to locate my destination when... POP! There's that darn MP dialog box popping up and stopping everything. I have to then start all over. Happens every time.

I tried to train myself to first sign into Sync as soon as I got to the Desktop, but that seems like it should be unnecessary.

Isn't there any way that the MP can be fed to Sync automatically if I am the only one using the machine? Can I eliminate Sync from asking for the password? Any work-arounds at all?

It may be a sync issue...

Today's I downloaded the firefox update. Was using gmail to forward articles, etc. when I hit "Email link".

Now, Outlook is trying to send out my stuff.

How do I change it back ?

How can I retrieve lost bookmarks? Syncing between two Firefox browsers replaced my newer bookmarks with the bookmarks of my less-often used browser. I expected the newer bookmarks to appear on the other browser. But instead the more-often used browser now has the same bookmarks as the less-oft used one.

I lost all my data in firefox after system reinstal on pc and now im have problem becouse ,I can't send any saved page login credentials or saved bookmarks from Android to pc. firefox from pc sees sync I did 15s earlier on android but still can't even access tabs from my devices! On android, I have never had a problem to send data from pc, now for the first time I need to do the same on pc and nothing works. Smartphone huawey y6 cam l21 android 6.0 , firefox last version on pc and apk. wtf? someone has a wise solution? I lost half a day on these syncs, setting up accounts on all related mozilla sites etc etc ... so please seriously solve the problem, not like in the guide or something: P

Hello,

I reinstalled windows on my laptop, and when i installed firefox and signed in with my account, none of the old settings, bookmerks, singins etc got synced. I downloaded newest version from website. Does anybody have a solution to this problem?

Thanks!

what are the steps now.. ? I have access to that email but for some odd reason mozilla doesn't deem that email to be worthy?

"The confirmation email we sent to ********* was returned and we’ve locked your account to protect your Firefox data.

If this is a valid email address, let us know and we can help unlock your account."

i just downloaded the new version onto my macbook pro, and have lost all my bookmarks and other settings which is very annoying. It wants me to sync with another device but I DON'T WANT to do that !! how can I avoid this and restore my settings/bookmarks etc or barring that, dump the new version and go back to the old one which worked fine which hopefully still has all my settings ?

Hello, I just joined Firefox Sync today because I got a new computer. I am in the process of moving all my info to the new machine. I set up an account on Firefox Sync for both computers and checked all the boxes. It appears that my history, bookmarks, etc all synced properly but when I go to the Firefox Lockwise page on my new computer it only has 2 saved logins, whereas my current computer has over 200 saved. I did a manual sync and refresh but no more logins have populated that page. Is there another way to transfer those logins? I really really don't want to have to manually log in again to all those websites. Is there something I'm missing? Thanks in advance!

Hi :) Long story short, my laptop broke and I had to reinstall windows and all my data got lost. When I installed firefox and synced nothing happened. In synced devices it's still showing that I'm connected (it's showing 2 devices for the same laptop). Is there any way that I can restore my bookmarks?

I've looked at a number of answers to this similar problem and none of them have helped. I never had this issue with Chrome or Safari, just Firefox. Whenever I close Firefox, it makes me sign in to sync again and re-log in to all my sites all over again.
