Until a few days ago, when I shared tabs from my mobile device to my desktop, it opened in a new tab or tabs in the active window on my desktop. Now all of the shared tabs are opening in their own window. Is there a way to adjust this in Settings?

Identical tabs across devices

I'm trying to find a solution for having all tabs open across devices. Currently, my desktop has about 50 open tabs that I access regularly. Today, I installed Firefox on my laptop, signed in and initiated syncing. All bookmarks came over, everything looks great, except that none of my open tabs from the desktop browser show on my laptop.

I would like to have identical tabs open across devices. Is there a way to configure this where a new computer being logged in automatically receives all open tabs from the initial device and then tabs automatically sync based on whatever is opened/closed on either device after the initial tabs are identically synced?

I have a lot of parts that I'm not going to see, and that's what you're saying: I don't know about these things. What parts are they not? Everything's working just fine, but what if I want to set it up on my iPad and my iPhone to have it similar to the same setup? How do I go about doing that?

How to sync two profiles separately for use on multiple devices without mixing up the data between the two profiles?

I have two profiles, one for work and one for my personal in the same account. I need to sync both of my profiles but do not want the information in the two profiles mix… (read more)

I have two profiles, one for work and one for my personal in the same account. I need to sync both of my profiles but do not want the information in the two profiles mixed together. I need to sync the information as I have a desktop and a laptop that I use for work, and mobile devices and another laptop for personal matters. If I am on work travel and need to access my personal profile on my laptop (because schlepping two machines is silly!), I want to switch my profile to the personal one. then when I am done I want to switch back to the work profile. How can I do this and is firefox set up to do this?

Wenn ich mich auf einigen Seiten anmelden möchte, erscheint dann dieses Fenster: ' Zum synchronisieren anmelden' 'und probieren sie andere Schutzwerkzeuge von Mozilla aus'. Ich möchte nichts davon, ich möchte mich nur ganz normal anmelden.
