Firefox for iOS Support Forum

I have Firefox on my desktop and iPad and both are synced. I love Firefox on my desktop but, honestly, I have to continue to use Safari on my Ipad because the iOS version of Firefox is nowhere near as good. One of my biggest obstacles to converting to Firefox on my iPad is trying to save bookmarks so I can access them on my desktop. When I bookmark a page on my iPad I cannot find it's location on my desktop. Can you please advise where Firefox places bookmarks that are saved on my iPad. Thanks

I think b/c I have an old Firefox acct on my old, locked iPhone 11,that when this iPad synced, with info on iPhone 11 from back when I had computer (Lightning Rod) so this is causing major lockouts because passwords, sign In info, etc don’t match? The 11 never really got used b/c Verizon couldn’t keep signal to phone and automated system kept shutting me down while the higher ups kept trying but eventually I had to give up and return to Spectrum but Verizon Automation also reported me th credit bureau- which we sent a rebuttal to the huge charge but only learned after time to dispute had long passed that b/c we didn’t think to send return receipt- Who kne? Well not only didn’t I get my $600 advanced payment returned and I kept begging those techs to simply give up, send a return box b/c when I agreed to the contract, on recording, I specifically stated that if what he ( salesman agreed to, that is, that I wouldn’t need to pay separately for Spectrums signal then yes, I agree to the contract… Spectrum, unfortunately, prior to CoVid, lied about upstate NY having 100% coverage and thus other companies suffered losses b/c they depended on wireless signal just as CoVid really took off(sorry for rant!) So, the 11 really didn’t get used b/c Verizon management understood the serious threat to me being terminal but the automated system couldn’t be overridden, and thus my question to you is…How can I separate, or stop the syncing with the outdated info that I suspect is confusing and driving me insane when the Firefox for iOS is getting separate info? But, suspecting I’m an intruder? Lastly, the old 11 has Now added newer (recent info) and I simply don’t know the info when being asked, nor do I know if both the one Android temporary (pay as you go phone…will cooperate with separate platforms as well as apps but it was never this confusing when I used Firefox before yet being much more deteriorated medically, I simply am desperately trying to protect my privacy until Apple can find a way to help get my watch back monitoring me while I temporarily have the Android so if something obvious happens - which btw, when the watch literally saved my life, nobody knew before that occurred that my body was no longer able to make a life sustaining trace mineral and the other requirements to absorb in order to live but b/c the watch was monitoring and SOS, at the hospital, my cardiologist was able to have tests that they instantly started IV’s saving me and Now although the watch isn’t working- I simply can only pray that b/c Apple is doing what they can, at least if I get some kind of pain or unable to breathe as was the case that day… but then I have lots of allergies so that’s what I and others thought was issue… but with the American ingenuity of what Apple has started, the ability to prevent deaths that could have been prevented, yet I’m hitting a huge brick wall with Spectrum arguing and putting my life at risk denying that Apple could have got my watch going but told me to call Spectrum because even with my phone dying from a fall, I’m paying out the ying Yang not only for cellular to not only go to my broken iPhone but am also paying for cellular to my watch which luckily I did get with its own cellular. But enough of the horror story…is there any advice you can provide while Apple has taken lead, to protect me from the Android but more importantly help me with the old info, of the 11 vS new of 14 which Apple has jumped further in to prevent the unthinkable from possibly occurring. I’d be lying if I tried to say I’m not frustrated with Spectrum, but I’m not interested in dying to enrich my heir…I still have things…a long long bucket list, but I’m just trying to keep myself and what is still working safe. You guys are wizards with this stuff… Please let me know if you can help separate out but possibly not make me more vulnerable. Thanks for what you do in trying to help people like me who don’t know much about what it entails nowadays to utilize the access, yet not be further victimized or experiencing more stored info.

Please call me if you can!

Tried syncing Firefox Windows 11 (version 21H2) with Firefox mobile browser (Firefox 105.0) and get the following message: 500 Error Oh dear, something went wrong there. We've been notified and will get working on a fix. I have a iPhone 12 Pro. iOS Version: 16.0.2

Hello all, Am I missing something? I've been using firefox for more than a decade on my smart phones, but I just switched to an iPhone and I can't seem to find a way to get my logins and passwords to autofill within the browser. am I stuck doing it manually or am I going to have to switch to safari? any help is appreciated!

Hello, Setting up a new iPad and signing into Mozilla fire fox, I found myself though I see on my phone I have more than one Mozilla account. On the iPad there are several with no username and no password. This is the case for Amazon? as well. For example, Amazon, UK Amazon, Germany, Amazon it’s only Amazon? france, Amazon?, USA, etc.. each time I have to write in my email and look up my password on another device, and then ask the iPad to remember the password and the password is NEVER remembered. Sorry, I don’t know why all caps. I am hoping a synch will clear things up, but do I sing from my phone or do I sync from an old computer? If I do have several Mozilla accounts, probably because I encountered password trouble and created a new ID, there could be a great amount of Helter skelter. If I sync more than one of these to the new device, will they all remain on the device or will they be faithful to the account that I am signed in on?

How do I tell which account I am using in Mozilla fire fox

Is there a trick to get Mozilla firefox to merge with the one on my phone for example, where things seem to be pretty straightforward.

I apologize because I’m not asking a clear question. Has anybody run into a problem of having their fire fox password system absolutely non-functional, and in addition to that on an Apple device, that the iCloud Keychain doesn’t want to remember the password, either, nor do the websites want to “remember me”.

If I know more, I’ll come back for help. Thank you, thank you all very much.

Hi, there is no import data button on general settings on ipad pro menu. How can i import passwords, bookmarks and history from brave/opera/duckduckgo/chrome/edge on ipad pro to firefox? How can i download history, passwords and bookmarks files for backing up firefox on ipad pro Thanks a lot

I would like to recover my tabs, I tried the going into setting and going to that other website but that did not work for me and I do not know what to do anymore, the tabs are not on my history anymore like they did not exist. And it's acting on my computer like it was never a synced device so I have absolutely nothing of anything I had on my phone it is all gone and can not find anything I did on my phone on my synced laptop.

I just installed (and reinstalled) Firefox on my iPhone 12 Mini, in the hopes that I could sync bookmarks, etc., that I have set up on my notebook's Firefox browser. I have gone through all the steps (twice) and it still will not migrate my bookmarks to the ios version. My account shows that Firefox is active on both devices. What am I missing? John

I don't know if syncing's the problem. My business email is locked. I haven't been able to use it and it is critical that I have this working. Can I chat with someone?

There is no sign in button next to sync and save on my Ipad in the menu or under settings, I have spent over an hour on trying to sync my bookmarks with no response from mozilla. Support is very lacking.

Recently (since iOS update to 17.3 perhaps?) the share menu from other apps does not show any of my other devices for me to send tabs to.

If I use the share menu to open in Firefox, then use the “send link to device” option there, the expected available devices do show up, and the send action does work (causes tabs to open on those other devices) when I choose them.

This is a recent regression. I want to be able to keep using Firefox on my desktop browser’s despite using a different browser on iOS, and a more cumbersome tab ingestion makes me less likely to continue doing that.
