I have 'synced' my old phone. Now I have new phone with a Firefox that I used for setup, which has a few open tabs and maybe a couple b9kmarks. I want to 'restore' everything fromthe old Firefox to the new. What happens if I 'sync'?

My guess is 'sync'ing the new firefox merely backs up its current state...

I have signed put and in, cleared cache and restarted the phone.

Before today sync was working fine.

Hi there I've been using Netscape navigator, then Firefox forever. I also use Thunderbird and have made donations for these products.

Very upset to see that cookie ought to delete and all the adblock add-ons have been discontinued or deleted from my browser. You say because it's a security problem but I've been using these for 10 plus years without any problems.

As long as advertisements show up on my browser I will have to now switch after 20 plus years to Brave.

Maybe my phone gas issues but I have been using Mozilla for so long, I have acquired many bookmarks. I can't save anymore because mu list is so long & tiresome. It nees a drop-down tab to better organize. Might I also suggest a way to alert owners that there is a page they haven't seen in a long time. Also an organizer that is automated.

Exhausted looking at my list.

I have Firefox installed on a few devices including my two phones, as well as it being my primary Windows desktop browser.

My older phone is currently running 121.0 #2015991663 and sync works fine.

My primary phone is running the latest version from Gplay store 135.0 #2016070975 and nothing I do can persuade it to sync.

I tried logging out of my Mozilla account on the phone, clearing cache, closing all tabs and restarting the device. It now persistenly says Last synchronised: never

It simply will not sync.
