Lately my Firefox app window will just randomly close while I'm using it. I notice most often on Facebook, but that's because it's the most often used page.

When I reopen the app, it's like I just opened it, not like it got minimized.

What's wrong with it? I have it updated to current version, as well as I've run malware and virus scans to see if it's my phone. Nothing found.

Ich bin langjähriger Firefox-Nutzer und habe bereits mehrere Troubleshooting-Schritte durchgeführt. Trotzdem benötige ich konkrete Unterstützung für dieses spezifische Problem.

PROBLEM KURZ: Ich habe ~1.625 Lesezeichen auf meinem Android-Tablet (Gerät D). Diese Lesezeichen syncen NICHT zu meinen anderen Geräten (Windows 11 + 2x Android). Alle anderen Geräte bleiben leer – keine Lesezeichen vorhanden.

GERÄTE-SETUP: - Gerät A: Huawei Notebook, Windows 11, Firefox (neues Profil „CleanSync") - Gerät B: Android-Handy, Firefox - Gerät C: Android-Handy, Firefox - Gerät D: Samsung Tablet SM-X200, Android 14, Firefox (QUELLE der Lesezeichen!)

SYNC-KONTO: - E-Mail: deviation@nickname.berlin.de (Neu erstellt, alte Kontos gelöscht) - Alle 4 Geräte angemeldet + Sync aktiviert - Sync-Einstellungen: „Lesezeichen" ist überall CHECKED ✓

WAS ICH SCHON VERSUCHT HABE: 1. Firefox-Cache auf allen Geräten gelöscht (A/B/C/D) 2. Firefox-Daten auf Android B/C geleert 3. Alte Sync-Kontos server-seitig gelöscht (via accounts.firefox.com) 4. Neues Konto erstellt + sukzessiv alle Geräte angemeldet 5. WARTEN: 2+ Stunden gewartet → Keine Änderung

SYMPTOM: - Gerät D: 1.625 Lesezeichen LOKAL sichtbar ✓ - Gerät A/B/C: 0 Lesezeichen (komplett leer) ✗ - Sync-Status A/B/C: Zeigt „Sync enabled" + letzte Sync vor X Min - → Aber Lesezeichen kommen NICHT an

VERMUTUNG: Lesezeichen von Gerät D laden NICHT auf Mozilla-Server → andere Geräte können nicht syncen

LOGS VERFÜGBAR: - Gerät A: `about:sync-log` (kann Screenshots bereitstellen) - Alle Geräte: Sync-Einstellungen-Screenshots

ZWEI FRAGEN: 1. Diagnose: Was kann ich konkret testen, um zu debuggen, warum Lesezeichen von Android D nicht syncen? (Bitte KEINE Verweise auf FAQ – ich benötige individuelle Anweisungen für dieses spezifische Problem.)

2. Fallback-Option: Gibt es eine Möglichkeit, die 1.625 Lesezeichen von Android D OHNE Sync zu sichern/exportieren (z. B. Datei, SQL-Export, Cloud-Backup)? Ich könnte sie dann manuell auf die anderen Geräte importieren.

Danke im Voraus! 🙏

Hello, I'd really like to see the character input appear when I hold down the period key instead of entering a domain. This is what usually happens in the normal search bar. This is very inconvenient.

Moreover, this is not a problem with Android 13 or Google Keyboard, but rather a feature of the browser.

I kindly ask the developers to add the ability to change this so that it would be convenient to use the search directly from the address bar.

Hi

Firefox has stopped syncing from my android phone. In the 'connected services' section of the account page it shows both my PC and phone connected. On the desktop it shows synchronised frequently updating (e.g. 24 seconds ago) but on phone it shows 'never'. It previously showed last sync as 14 days ago but I relogged (from both devices) to try to fix it. It just so happens that 14 days ago I added a new email address to login with my mozilla account (previous email became secondary), but I have checked and both devices are logged in with updated credentials.

Any ideas other than re-install?
