Hello,

I recently changed my phone and my firefox information seems to have transferred over icloud. I was having issues with the back-up and transfer at first, so this may have contributed, but I figured resyncing everything would have solved that. Instead, a password I created on my mac did not transfer over onto my phone and a lot of the time my saved passwords are just blank. Sometimes I can still tap on a password and it’ll fill in anyway but most of the time it doesn’t and when I go to manually transfer it I’m greeted with username (blank) password (blank). How do I fix this?

Good day. I had to change my password and when I did all my bookmarks, collections etc are gone in my Firefox and I cannot sync to get it all back. I have a laptop that I rarely use that has Firefox on it. But I'm sure that half of the bookmarks on that or older than my phone because I use my phone all the time. Can you help me get all my information back on my Android phone? Anything you can do to help would be really appreciated. Best regards Kerry

Firefox doesn't sync automatically nor manually via "sync now" setting. Don't know what could be the problem, but it takes 4 to 5 days until things are refreshed. Any clue on how to fix this? Has this bug been reported yet?

I had saved password on my old pc which i dont have now and also bookmarked the site on my fire fox .ho can i access to the password and the site now from my android phone? It was about 3 and half years ago before my divorce. It is very important to me. Thanks

I was attempting to sync bookmarks from Firefox on my Android phone to my laptop. They weren't appearing on my laptop so I deleted the bookmarks on the laptop version and updated the browser. I signed in again and both the Android and desktop versions synced. Now, all of my bookmarks have disappeared on my Android phone. I tried to restore using import and backup/restore but that didn't do anything. Is there any way of getting them back?

I also have a tablet which has my bookmarks, albeit older versions as it hasn't connected to the internet for several months. How can I safely get these across to my phone and desktop without the risk of losing them again?

Firefox on android has to be the absolute worst browser for managing bookmarks. I'm thinking of changing to something else.

Two devices - MacBook Air and an iPhone. Both run the latest Firefox application, respectively. Starting with both applications having the bookmarks synchronised. Next, the bookmarks on one of the devices, say the laptop, are changed - some deleted, new added, overall bookmarks folders edited.

Question: How is it possible to ensure that Firefox synchronisation will transfer the latest compilation of bookmarks, as edited on the laptop, to the mobile phone application and not the other way round, undesireably restoring the preceding compilation, instead?

On Firefox Android, every time i completely close the app and reopen it, I'm logged out of sync. Of course this is incredibly annoying and makes sync basically useless, since having to start a fresh session multiple times a day not only takes time but it creates a huge list of "devices" so sending tabs back and forth becomes a nightmare.

Any idea what might cause this? AFAIK I'm not swapping IP's multiple times a day and i haven't used a VPN during the time this started happening. (I do have ProtonVPN installed, but it's a fairly trustworthy company so i doubt it's that.)

Good afternoon, I have a problem since I bought a new phone, a Samsung S24. I link the account on the phone but when 1 day passes the tabs I have on the mobile do not appear where it says Synchronised Tabs on the fixed computer. From the mobile I can see all the tabs I have open on the computer. Also if from the mobile I give it to send to the computer it sends it to me, but if I give it from the computer to send tab to the mobile device it does not do it to me. In account, connected services I see the mobile device. I have uninstalled the application but still no solution, to see what I can do to solve this.

I cannot sync my Windows and two Android devices. In order to scan the code from Windows on My Android, I need the 'Sync and save your data' option, and it's missing. I have checked the main Settings menu and the options on my account, but the only option related to syncronisation is 'Sync now', which is now useless. This is a recent problem, because I used to be able to sync all of them in previous versions. Is there any way around this problem?
