Здравствуйте, подскажите, можно ли войти под одним профилем но иметь разную панель закладок? Например я вошел под профилем для поиска информации в браузере и есть панель закладок для браузера, которыми пользуюсь. Также я скачал Firefox Developer Edition также вошел под тем же профилем, но хочу чтобы панель вкладок была своя, и не пересекалась с обычным Firefox. Можно ли так сделать? или нужно создавать вторую учетную запись для разработки в Firefox Developer Edition

I set up profiles on my work computer and I have sync set up but when I access firefox on my personal computer I don't have the profiles. Is there a way to sync my profiles as well so I can access them wherever I log into Firefox?

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?

Moderator note: This question has been moved from the Firefox Desktop forum to the Firefox for iOS forum.

Like many I was confused about the recent message regarding the free VPN which is being rolled out. I have no ICON in Firefox, and whilst I now understand that this is because it is being rolled out gradually, I did initially try a couple of things to try to find it. One of these was to sign in to my account, however, when I did this my browser went crazy. Loads of bookmarks disappeared, as did all the folders that I had these filed in, and loads of very old redundant bookmarks that I had long ago deleted were back. It seems that Firefox synced with 'something', but as I only ever use Firefox on this PC, I don't know what. Also, the browser no longer worked - I could search for anything and I got results, but I got a crash message if I clicked on any of them. Using Edge to search instead, I discovered how to roll back a sync, so I did that and now Firefox is back to normal with all my current bookmarks, history etc.. Obviously I am not inclined to sign in to my account again for fear of this happening again. I assume that when the free VPN finally becomes available to me I will need to sign in. My question then is: is there a way of signing in to my account without initiating a sync of any kind so that my browser stays as it is? (I am actually using Edge to ask this question as I couldn't pose it without signing in and didn't want to risk doing that in Firefox!)

I have a Windows 7 desktop with Firefox 115.35.0esr (64-bit) which was just updated today. I also have a Windows 11 laptop with Firefox 150.0 (64-bit). Now all of a sudden all of my bookmarks have been combined. The ones that were on the laptop are now on my desktop and vice versa. I started deleting the ones on the desktop that were from the laptop and they started to be automatically deleted from my laptop. How do I stop this from happening.

Hello.

I am trying to send tabs from my mobile Firefox app to my laptop firefox browser. When I woke up this morning. I tried to send tabs to my laptop and they all opened up in the private browser. Is there a setting I can change that when I share tabs from my phone to my computer it opens in the regular firefox browser?

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.

Why am I being alerted when I sign in to Firefox to finish setting up my account? I think that I have had an account and already sync my devices for the last decade, but less than a century. When I follow the sync instructions i get put on a loop of needed to "pair from within the Firefox app," on my phone - which I was using when instructed to "open Firefox" very confusing as to what I am doing wrong.

We have a question about bookmarks sync, with specific characteristics, please.

We purchased another computer, a laptop, and wish to benefit from the bookmarks sync between them. However, we're affraid of a backward syncing situation. How can we make sure we prevent that?

For example, say we worked on the desktop for a week, and then need to use the laptop. What should we do when we turn the laptop on and open ff browser, if we wish to sync from the desktop to the laptop? Do we press the Sync button on the laptop? - or will that force a backward synching from the laptop to the desktop? If that's the case, than how do we sync reliabely? And let's say the day after, from the now-updated-laptop to the desktop? Is the safest way to do it by turning the sync option off, and copying the bookmarkbackup folder from one updated computer to the other?

Also, this may complicate things a bit - We use the browser bookmarks in a non traditional way. It's kind of an archive for us. The .jsonlz4 file size in bookmarkbackups folder is 37MB. We remember reading somewhere before, the server backups stores files up to 10MB. So, question is, does the large size or the bookmarks file will affect the synching process between computers?

Thank you very much! :)

To sync a mobile device, the instructions say to open Firefox browser on mobile, from Menu go to Sign In, aim phone camera at QR code. The 3 lines at the screen bottom right (i'm assuming this is a menu but printing an icon labelled "menu" is less cryptic) offers no sign in opportunity.

Dear support, I have 2 pcs and I need to enter sync password every time I open Firefox - start notebook. It works fine on the second pc and password is remembered. How to solve it? Because I need to write sync password every time, open all cards etc .. OS - win11 pro, Firefox browser versiono 145.0.2 64bit, no 2FA in firefox. Thank you. Mike Hrubjak.

I would like to know how I can choose the aster PC from which firefox snchronizes on other PCs and what to do, that it does not change direction when i am in vacation with the non-master PC

If I have edited the passwords file and bookmarks file and saved them to a folder via export feature. When I import the edited file into firefox how can I make that the master file and not have the other instances of firefox sync all the old data back to the master one I edited? For instance I have FF on android, linux and windows, if I import the edited file to the windows instance what is to stop the linux from syncing back to the windows machine? I have had this happen previously where a newer instance of firefox overwrote the bookmarks and password files. Will I have to delete all bookmarks and passwords and import them from the new edited file on each device?
