I just got a new computer and when downloading and signing in to firefox on my new computer it somehow brought over saved tabs from my dad's computer and not my old computer. It did not used to be like this on my old computer however I created a firefox account on my old computer hoping that if I did that and signed in on my new computer it would bring over my saved tabs and info. It did bring over my info but kept my dad's tabs as well. Is there a way to get rid of my dad's tabs on my new computer without deleting them from his computer as well? I also then created a new firefox profile in hopes that when I signed in to that one it would only bring my information but it just replicated the original profile, now I am hoping to delete that second profile but I am worried that will delete all of my information because when I go to delete it it says it will delete a bunch of my saved information. Is that information saved in my original profile so that if I delete the second profile I created it won't delete the data from the original profile (which is just the same information on both) as well? I can't seem to find anything to sign out of other than the new firefox account I just created, I was hoping to sign out of whatever I originally signed in with and try a different sign in but I can't even seem to find anywhere to sign out. I am not sure how I managed to do this, but any suggestions on how to fix it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I'm on week 3 of attempting to import my firefox data I'm stuck on the already synced to profile create another. I am unaware that I have any profile at all and I don't want any profiles. Is there any means at all of retrieving my passwords and bookmarks from my old laptop without having to deal with this crap?

Afternoon,

I've used this account for a long time and today I had to reset my PC.

I was always signed into to Firefox to manage my bookmarks/passwords/history, however I've signed in now and everything is gone.

It won't sync up. I've tried removing the profile folders, copying them out, uninstalling/reinstalling firefox but nothing is working.

I tried to disable Windows defender, but that didn't do anything either.

The version I had at the time was Mozilla Firefox (x64 en-GB) Mozilla 147.0 which is the same version.

Is there anything that can be looked at, to see what has happened to the data I has?

I use an iMac (2019) and MacBook (2015) but my tabs aren't syncing between the two.

I've refreshed the syncing a few times but the MacBook is still showing two lots of tabs for the iMac, and both of them are showing pages that are no longer open.

I'd really like to be able to move between the two so if anyone has any suggestions on how to get FireFox to sync, I'd be really grateful. :-)

Hello, in the last couple of days I spent a lot of time deleting old accounts stored in "passwords" in my Firefox account and making sure no vulnerable passwords were still around. I did it from my Mozilla account, on a laptop.

When I was done with it, I signed out from my account on my Android Firefox app, and deleted all the cache and the data, to remove all the old password. Unfortunately, when I looged back in my Firefox account, the old passwords were still there and synced on my laptop as well.

So, is there any way I can undo that Sync? The problem is that now not only all my cleaning pointless, but I changed the password for many accounts and the Sync override it with the old ones.
