Firefox for Android Community Forum

Hello Support! I am trying to recover my old and new bookmarks after I uninstallled tha App n then reinstall I can't find my tabs, or my old and new bookmarks! Please advise URGENT-Priority

I setup sync, the device paired. It said it was syncing and when finished the bookmarks folder looked totally different on my kindle fire. I can not find any of the recently added bookmarks on the kindle. The History and Open Tabs are still the same, I didn't have those selected for sync. I checked and one password that I knew was previously incorrect on the kindle got updated to the correct one from the desktop. But I am worried about any possible passwords that were only on the kindle or were correct on the kindle and incorrect on the desktop, based on the bookmarks I suspect those were lost also. I was worried about this and had tried to find the profile data on the kindle but no file manager helped, I couldn't find it anywhere. And there doesn't seem to be a way to access profile manager on android. I also poked around with adb with no success. I was hoping to make a backup before using sync but I gave up and did sync anyway. Is there anyway to recover this data?

Firefox recently crashed on my PC and i had to restart from an old Bookmarks HTML file i had. the Bookmarks were from 2 months ago and my mobile is still in present Bookmark mode. how can i get the Bookmarks from my phone to sync with my PC, so as not to replace my mobile with the PCs "new" bookmarks?

thanks much

hello.i recently formatted my phone.and now i re installed firefox and logged in toy account.but there is no data in my browser such as passwords and bookmarks and any thing.please help me.what happened to my data?.thnx

I need someone to help me figure out how to export my Firefox passwords to my mobile phone. I'm trying to follow the instructions that are on the laptop but I'm just totally baffled. PLEASE HELP! YEAH HOW DO I SEND THE MOTHERFUCKER

The online directions say that after logging in to Firefox on the desktop, that I should open the android app, click Settings and the click Sync and Save. But there is no Sync icon (see attachment) on the phone(android 14). On the laptop if I click on dd another Device it just takes me back to the same instructions. How do I sync the phone and computer?

I just purchased an android tablet to replace my old one. I'd like to transfer all of the log in names and passwords saved in Mozilla to the new tablet. Is there a way to do that?

Edit: A few hours later, and it magically works perfectly, feel free to close this. Annoyed at loss of data and it randomly fixing itself, but whatever. Sorry to anyone looking at this trying to find a solution as i did.

As in title, for context for a while I've been having minor issue with sync between these two devices, with the syncing being unreliable, often taking trying multiple times, closing and reopening mobile app, and opening a new tab to try and prompt a successful sync, as often the sync would "happen" but the tabs open on the mobile device would be outdated ones.

Today, sync failed to work at all, on both parts (Dekstop app, and android app), i couldn't see tabs from the other device on either device. Trying to resolve this issue, i relogged on both devices, set up and signed out of sync multiple times, disabled and enabled sync again, deleted mobile app cache and tried again, and even reinstalled mobile app and logged in again (which to my surprise, also wiped all my tabs, history, settings, which is quite an annoyance, but I'll leave as a loss). To note, both firefox PC and Android have autoupdate on, dekstop is up to date, though i think i noticed firefox app updating yesterday.

I have read through other firefox sync articles, but none of them provided a working solution. For information, i have noticed something that may be a hint or nothing , please see image attached (nr1). Another thing I've noticed is firefox view not showing it recognizes a connection, image attached (nr2). I am also providing an image of my connected services page, showing the desktop sign on and mobile sign in (whose last connected date does not update), image attached (nr3). Another curiosity is the refresh button in that page, when clicked, perpetually showing as "in progress", but not resolving or updating when i log in mobile app, to see that change only refreshing the page worked.

I really hope for some help with solving this issue. Firefox sync despite its unreliability has been a very convenient tool for me. Naturally if any extra info is needed, i am ready to provide it.

Sync collections after Android factory reset, have Firefox on desktop that is synced, but the new Android install synced bookmarks but not collections, of which i have many, or did.

I'm sure I've just missed a step, but been reading for 3 weeks now .... any idea's?

I just signed into a new phone with my mozilla account and all my collections and bookmarks are gone. I have synced multiple times. Advice on how to get all those saved items back?
