Bookmarks aren't syncing from original upload PC to Android device and another PC

Hello community.

My bookmarks aren't syncing from the PC I originally uploaded the bookmarks to 

  to my other two devices: an Android and another PC.

I did the updated Firefox login steps on all the devices, so the bookmarks should really be synchronized everywhere.

Have you encountered a similar issue and would please possibly have a solition to this?

Thank you.

Hi

I understand that Firefox Sync did not connect to your mobile device on this occasion, but hopefully I should be able to help you force a Sync event to take place.

Assuming you have connected the same Sync account on both your mobile and desktop copies of Firefox:

In Firefox on your mobile device:

  1. Go into the Settings menu and select Firefox Account.
  2. Tap on Synchronise now.

This will “force” a synchronisation of the data that is on the local device storage.

Thank you)

For the bookmarks they should probably be uploaded on an original (first) sign in device to sync well to others.

I think I might have uploaded the bookmarks to my second PC, not first.
