My personal laptop was being repaired, and I was using my mom's old laptop until mine was fixed. I logged out of her Mozilla account on that laptop and signed into my own. Now that I have my personal laptop back, all of my passwords, bookmarks, and extensions are mixed in with all of hers. I don't know what to do, and I'm worried that if I remove bookmarks from my account, it'll create a domino effect that results in a catastrophic Mother's Day.... Please help, I'm not good with technology, I'm just a geology major.

I have been trying to clear out my bookmarks fro several days now and every single time they are restored. I have tried unsyncing my phone and computer and saving backups to try to force restore it to the cleaned up version but it always restores every single bookmark even to the original folder after I moved them around.

I used to be synced across two laptops and my iphone but no longer. I am signed in to my Firefox account on my Windows 10 laptop and on my iphone. The windows 10 laptop indicates that I am also signed in on my Windows 11 laptop, but when I run Firefox on my Windows 11 laptop, it indicates that I am signed out. When I attempt to sign in (on the Windows 11 machine), I get an "unexpected error" flag and I cannot sign in.

How can I fix this?

Im trying to sync my android to existing account on PC. Phone says my firefox login incorrect yet when I go to firefox settings , it shows my name and password that I used to try to log in with phone. I then tried the scan option, but when I phone up to pc screen to QR code, it just sits there. SO I think ill just change my password. I go to password change section and it sends me the code via email. I input the code and brings me to change password screen yet when i try to change it, it states the prepopulated old password is incorrect. I am logged into PC with this info so how is it incorrect?

Добрый день. У меня всё было хорошо, и ранее с телефона всегда были доступны синхронизированные вкладки, которые открыты в браузере на ПК, однако недавно мне понадобилось разлогиниться на телефоне, потом я снова залогинилась, и с тех пор у меня возникла с ними проблема. Вкладки просто пропадают сами по себе спустя время. Чтобы они снова появились, мне нужно оказаться у своего домашнего компьютера и открыть Firefox, и осуществить синхронизацию (если она не успела произойти автоматически). Тогда какое-то время эти вкладки появляются в Firefox на моём телефоне с Android,.. а спустя время снова пропадают. Это очень неудобно, потому что я не могу, находясь на работе или в поездке, комфортно воспользоваться вкладкой, использованной на домашнем компьютере. Раньше эти вкладки были доступны всегда, и я всегда была спокойна и уверена, что могу к ним обратиться. Что делать? Помогите, пожалуйста. Прикрепляю скриншот, где видно, что вкладок нет (к сожалению, сейчас не могу сделать скриншот, где они есть, поскольку в данный момент времени я нахожусь на работе).

Bookmarks will not transfer or sync.

I've exported my bookmarks as an HTML file on my old computer (Win 11 Firefox ver 149.0.2) using a USB drive and tried to upload the file to my new computer (Win 11 Firefox Ver 149.0.2.). Only a few dozen of hundreds of bookmarks transferred. Repeated tries simply add the same bookmarks to the menu.

I've tried sync. Both computers are signed in and are correctly listed in the connected services box. Syncing is ON and when I select the Sync Now button on either computer screen, the Sync Now switches very briefly to Syncing and then back to Sync Now. Sync has transferred no data from my old computer to my new computer.

Any ideas are welcomed. Thanks, Jagwriter

I'm signed in on both the mobile and desktop app with the same account, sync is on for both of these, but the sync is not actually happening. None of my passwords or history is accessible in the mobile app. It also seems to not save any history at all because I keep having to type in whole web addresses instead of the app filling in the rest itself, even though I've visited these websites many times. There's no error in the settings or anything, it's just not working properly.
