Firefox Community Forum

I've synced all my data (including add-ons, passwords, bookmarks, etc) to my firefox binded account on fedora linux then change my linux distro and re-setup firefox on Manjaro KDE, login and etc

found out that everything synced but my previous add-ons and open tabs are gone for good I've so many opened tabs are my custom add-ons settings on so many add-ons for personal preferences are gone

I've faced this many times but I thought somehow these days firefox might have fixed these issues but i'm so sad that all my important data are gone :(

I'm using firefox only just for sync+privacy for hassle free setup again and again over many devices otherwise i prefer tor for much anonymity and privacy

PLEASE, YOU GUYS CONSIDER WORKING ON SYNCHRONIZATION FEATURES SPECIFICALLY <ADD-ONS> AND <OPEN TABS>

thanks for reading and pl igonre my english errors

Running Win11 on desktop PC. Sync option offers QR code to scan but Firefox on android does not have sync scan option on settings. Despite instructions to contrary, that option is not listed on mobile. Yes I'm logged in and yes I have synced previous versions of firefox

I installed firefox on other PC and I logged in with my account. Despite having synchronization for passwords, bookmarks, etc., I can't sync my data on my new PC. Why is that?

so i signed into my firefox account on a new computer and every time i hit the sync now button it brings a pop up for half a second then it disappears and no changes happen to my bookmarks or any of my other synced data.looked through the forums could not find anything that was even similar to my problem

How do I sign out of FF on my Iphone? When I attempt to log out of either the computer or the phone it stops sync. I want to be able to use firefox on the phone without having the computer on???!!!

Hi, I'm new to asking the Firefox community a question, but I hope you can give me directions to solve my problem:

I currently have Firefox v. 78.15.0esr on an iMac (early 2008) running OS 10.9.5.

I know that version has been unsupported by Mozilla for a few years, but I still want to keep this computer alive after I install the latest Firefox version to the newer (refurbished) iMac M3 2023 which should come with OS 14 or OS 15.

I hope that downloading the latest Firefox for Mac version off your website should be pretty straightforward, but what I really need help on is how to bring my Profile residing in the Library/Caches/Firefox folder on my older iMac to become my Profile on the latest Firefox version on the newer iMac (while still keeping my older iMac).

Appreciate the help.

Hello,

Earlier today I reformatted my device but when I logged in to firefox I can only see my history is getting synced my bookmarks are empty, I've checked and bookmarks are check off and they should be synced. How do I get them to sync? It has worked fine in the past. Thanks.

Is 'Sync Firefox data' a way to 'back-up' your browser?

(ie: Can I retrieve all my urls even if I change my iMac (etc) to a later one?) Is 'Sync Firefox data' the way to do this?

Thank you.

I use Zen Browser and I feel very satisfied with its features and stability, although there are still shortcomings, but nothing compared to all the advantages. Here I want to ask about how to open zen browser with the same account but both on different laptops and display all both workspace and container tabs with the same settings? if not, then tell me to import from laptop 1 to laptop 2 for zen browser data?

This is my second email to you....

I just switched to Firefox from Chrome, because Chrome was crashing all the time.

All I want to do is sync my computer, laptop, phone and Ipad's reading list. I want to be able to see an article on one device, add to the reading list, and have it on all devices.

I'm logged in under the same name on all, and it says sync is on, but the reading lists are different.

Can someone help me? My phone number is [removed phone# from public support forum], email is [removed email from public].

Thank you!

My computer died today due to water damage, which means I can't turn it back on again. I got a new computer, I've looked all over the Firefox support websites, and can't find a solution as to how to get all of my Firefox data onto this new computer. I tried the profile page, but it looks like a profile for my old computer's Firefox never even existed. I have no idea where to find any of my old data.
