Firefox for iOS Community Forum

The app is not logging in and keeps telling me to enter my password. This was after uninstalling and reinstalling the app. I can login on the browser, but the app must be bugged.

firefox is my default browser - i'm on a mac - yesterday it just deleted for no reason - when i searched for it it was gone from my applications

i reinstalled it but now i don't have any of my previous information (bookmarks and stored passwords)

can i recover this?

The subject says it all.

Catastrophic Macbook failure where I had to reboot the entire system. Luckily my phone still was signed into my Firefox account so I thought my bookmarks were safe. When I redownloaded and signed into Firefox from my Macbook I had no Bookmarks, no backup file, clicked sync, nothing happened. I still had all my bookmarks on my iPhone Firefox there and tried sync there.

Instead of syncing all my existing bookmarks or giving me a warning I was going to sync my Macbook(missing all bookmarks) to my iPhone(still had all bookmarks) it sync'd to now the iphone having no bookmarks, account passwords or cookies.

I have read through all the articles, I have tried to contact any support. Please help.

Thanks, Garrrett

Hi All

Quick Question - I was stupid and reset my account forgetting I had a recovery key so lost all my data. I realized an old iphone still has most of my bookmarks - how can I export from Firefox iOS app without syncing with my firefox account (which will then wipe out the data)

is this possible? Or could I create a new firefox account, then login into on my phone while keeping my bookmarks? Then export when the new account sync my old phone's data by logging into the new account on my computer? Thanks!!

I’m running Firefox 131.4 (46621) on my iPhone 12.

I’m setting up a new Mac, and I’m trying to sync the freshly installed Firefox (132.0.1 aarch64) with my other FF instances.

The sync instructions ask if I have FF for mobile, then provide a QR code and give these instructions: 1. Open Firefox on your mobile device. 2. Go to the menu /// on iOS 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» menu item, and I can’t find any other location where I might scan a QR code.

Er, help?

I have installed a self hosted syncserver-rs and it works excellently on an Ubuntu and a Windows 10 computers. I tried to add my iOS device but it simply does not sync. It says "synchronized" and reports the last sync date but nothing shows up from the other devices, nor anything shows up on the other devices from the iOS device. I configured the iOS device to point to the syncserver-rs: "Use custom FxA Content Server": https://accounts.firefox.com "Use Custom Sync Token Server": https://mydomain.com/token/1.0/sync/1.5 Note that on both computers I used the address "https://mydomain.com/1.0/sync/1.5" and not "https://mydomain.com/token/1.0/sync/1.5" and it works great. On Firefox for iOS: - if I use "https://mydomain.com/1.0/sync/1.5" it says sync failed, and nothing syncs - If I use "https://mydomain.com/token/1.0/sync/1.5" sync seems to work but nothing syncs anyway.

I'm unable to sync passwords and such between my desktop and iPad despite repeated attempts via scanning the QR code displayed on the desktop screen. It doesn't seem to recognize that I'm using Firefox for iOS on the iPad in spite of downloading and installing it again. Appreciate any enlightenment on this, thanks.
