Hello, I received an email from you asking me to change my Firefox password for account security reasons. When I changed it, all the data synced in Firefox with my email was deleted. This upset me greatly because I lost important data and saved websites. Please restore the deleted data. Thank you.

[edit] I was using my phone to post this question and inadvertently posted it to the android forum. This is a DESKTOP question.

I'm trying to sync my tab groups across my desktop/laptop. I have sync enabled through the settings and I've checked every box, but I don't seem to see an option for syncing tab groups specifically. It syncs all of my bookmarks and active tabs, but the groups seem to be unique to each device. Is this feature available? I might be looking in the wrong spot so if anyone has any insight that would be great! Cheers

Historically, I remember when you open the `sync` sidebar and right click on the tab grouping (i.e. Firefox on iPad), it opened a context menu where you had the option to `open all synced tabs`. This seems to be missing from the latest version of Firefox (138), but wanted to check in to see if I'm missing something or if I should downgrade my version of Firefox to get that functionality again.

Respectable, I’m having trouble with Firefox Sync, particularly related to backing up and recovering my bookmarks, history, and saved data. I want to ensure that my data is properly backed up and can be recovered on a new device or after reinstalling Firefox. Please help me understand how to verify if my sync is working and how to recover synced data.

Hi, I have two laptops, and I've been using my Firefox account on one of them only. I want to link / sync the other laptop, and have the combined set of bookmarks from both laptops saved to my account. I want to make sure not to lose existing bookmarks from either one. That is, I don't want the sync to delete existing bookmarks on the laptop which is not yet connected. I want the two sets of bookmarks to be combined into one. How do I do that?

Many thanks, Noam

Hi I have used two computers for different purposes and places, but have had the same account with passwords synchronized on both machines. I would like to synchronize everything - especially bookmarks and payment methods - on the machines. My question is: what happens if I 'just' set synchronization active in all sections on both machines? Is one of the machines considered the 'master' machine, so its 'content' is synchronized to the other, so that content that was not on the 'master' machine is deleted? Or is everything preserved, so I have all content from both machines on both machines? Where can I possibly find more detailed information about this? Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone, I have looked through previous answers and the one suggested changing my mozilla account password, will this still delete data synced to the server? I tried signing out my account but that doesn't delete synced data. I want to keep the data on the computer, just remove it from the data from the server.

How can I get my "Bookmarks" and "Extension" loaded on my new computer. I've loaded Firefox, signed-in, and completed the "Finish Setup"; but they haven't appeared.

In order for me to sync my Android bookmarks to my Win10, I have to do a manual sync while going the other way is automatic. It also seems to take a few minutes to go from Android to Windows; are both of these situations normal?

You used to be able to right-click a device in the sync tabs sidebar, and choose 'open all in tabs', but since the last update this has gone. So where's that option now? Thanks

Hello, I was wondering if there is a way that I can only sync certain things from my firefox browser to my firefox developer browser? Everytime I log in to my firefox acount on the developer browser it changes things that I don't want changed. For instance it will change the dark theme from the developer to the regular, and if I turn it off then it also turns off the dark theme on my developer addition, then I have to log out and fix everything on both of them. But it is nice to have my passwords on the developer addition, that is really the only thing I have found so far that I need.
