Recently had to reinstall a Progressive web app and found out I had deleted my firefox settings when I cleared the cache and clear Data under app storage.

Now after signing into my Mozilla account and clicking Sync in the account settings nothing happens.

Ive signed into my desktop computer and made a bookmark backup but for some reason theres no option to import from the android app.

I have Firefox synced on two laptops. In the sidebar menu, when I look at tabs, I see tabs from the other device, but when I look at bookmarks, I only see bookmarks from the device I'm on. Neither can I see synced bookmarks in Manage Bookmarks. In the Settings, in "Manage what syncs on all your connected devices", I have Bookmarks checked. How do I see my synced bookmarks?

Probably not the right topic as you don't offer many. But for the SECOND time now, when I boot up computer my bookmarks are gone. I finally retrieved them the first time, it took a LONG time to find what would help doing it. Now I have to do it again.

The question is, WHY IS THIS SUDDENLY HAPPENING? WHAT is causing it? How can it be stopped?

I can't sync my history and bookmarks. As for my bookmarks, backups have stopped for about a month. I can't export them as html files either. As for my history, the file download history is no longer displayed at all. I've tried refreshing Firefox, but that didn't work. Is a reinstall the only solution?

As I follow the instructions and get to the scan my PC bar code on the PC screen with my cell phone it causes the computer to respond which is only to give me an error that the PC is not paring or just sits on the same screen with nothing basically on it.

Hello,

I am not familiar with how Mozilla Firefox

Two days ago, I had Microsoft Window 11 screen flickering issues. Searching the web for possible solutions, many recommended to uninstall any recently updated apps prior to when the screen flicker issue started. Since Mozilla Firefox was one of the recently updated apps, I uninstalled it but didn't know that I will lose all of the bookmarks I put under browser the bookmark ribbon.

I never saved or exported my Firefox bookmarks before since I thought it will be saved automatically. However, after I reinstall the Firefox app, my bookmarks are gone.

How can I get my Firefox bookmarks back if I never manually saved or exported the Firefox bookmarks before? I really would like to have them back. Desperately need help.

Thanks very much,

KT

I wrote down my recovery key and hit the download button, and my screen went to a blank page, with aboutblank as a header, and wouldn't go any further. I hit my back key and it took me to my Firefox search page. I still need to finish setting up my recovery key info, etc... how do I get back into finish setting up?

When trying to pair my phone with firefox already signed in to my macbook, I get this error:

"General application error

Something went wrong. Please try again later."

I tried refreshing firefox and trying to pair on a private tab, and none worked. Any potential fixes would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

When I booted up Firefox today, I noticed a good chunk of my tabs were gone. They were nowhere in 'closed tabs' in History, nor in recently closed windows. In trying to restore them, I've now lost ALL of my open tabs with no clear way of getting them back. I have no idea what to do. 'Restore previous session' is not an option available to me.

Hello,

A few months ago I made an account on Firefox, synced all my data(passwords), then when I lost my PC I tried to login but couldn't find the recovery key. Now I found it, is there a way to use that recovery key to get back my saved passwords?

Best regards, Stefan

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?

Backed up Thunderbird, with no issues, to external hard drive. Attempted same with Firefox but copy did not take place. Upon next boot for Firefox the system flagged "Your Firefox profile cannot be loaded. It may be missing or inaccessible" I have appended OLD to the original profile and created a new folder. Firefox now loads and operates. Could you please advise the best way to retrieve my OLD profile.

Many thanks

Just wondering, are the Tab Groups only saved locally or also on the Account? Have also heard that the Tab Groups feature has sometimes been disabled by itself, when re-opening Firefox, and they lost all their groups and had to enable the feature again. But I don't know anything else about that, and just would like to know, if the Tab Groups can be or are saved on the Mozilla Account.

Hello everyone,

I've been experiencing an issue with my bookmarks lately. Although my bookmarks are still visible in the Bookmarks Manager, when I open a bookmarked page, the star icon in the upper right corner does not appear filled (indicating it's not saved).

This makes it difficult for me to know whether I've saved a page before or not. I haven't made any recent changes to my settings or browser version, so I'm not sure why this is happening.

Has anyone else encountered this issue, and is there a way to fix it?

Thanks in advance for your help!
