I-Firefox Isithangami Sokwesekwa

When I log in to the account of the Firefox browser to synchronize my settings, I find that there may be two different bookmark bars and extension settings. This phenomenon mainly occurs when I use the native browser of Ubuntu and connect to the Internet But the browser I downloaded from firefox china works most of the time Is there any way to eliminate this phenomenon? Perhaps specify an update and synchronization server?

After restarting my PC, out of the blue Firefox had signed me out, removed my bookmarks and history, etc. Luckily i have all this backed up onto my account and can see all the bookmarks and the like through Android Firefox, however whenever i sign in on my desktop to resync everything up it doesnt work and keeps requesting i sign in, which upon clicking just takes me to my signed in account. Ive restarted Firefox, Restarted my PC, cleared cache and cookies and even reinstalled firefox but the issue seems to persist.

My current phone is about two years old and I've decided I ought to back up the history of useful links I've viewed in Firefox on that device.

Unfortunately the way i've kept track of stuff on my phone is by just never closing any useful tabs. (And of course because i don't always remember to close things when I'm done with them there are a lot of non-useful tabs mixed in as well.)

I have successfully created a Firefox account, signed in on both my phone and PC, and synced the two. The list of tabs shows up in the Synced Tabs sidebar in Firefox on PC.

However I'd like to save the pages to a more persistent format, presumably some kind of html list. The "normal" way to do this would be to open them in the PC browser, bookmark them all, and export the bookmarks.

However if i try so select "Open All in Tabs" i get this warning:

"You are about to open 1492 tabs. This might slow down Firefox while the pages are loading. Are you sure you want to continue?"

I fear for the life of my computer if i try to open 1.5 thousand tabs all at the same time. Is there some way to export the list of synced tabs without opening them all first?

A several year old page i found mentioned an "about:sync" page with a "Record Editor", but that doesn't seem to exist anymore. (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/50829318/export-synced-tabs-in-firefox)

If there's no way to export the Synced Tabs list in the UI, is the list saved somewhere in the profile folder in readable format?

Thanks!

I recently (19th of May) had to reinstall Linux. I thought I had everything backed up, but apparently I forgot to backup my Firefox profile.

I'd lost a few years of bookmarks and my current session, but c'est la vie, back up better next time. I *did* have Firefox Sync, but after checking the support forums saying Sync is not a backup tool, I'd lost hope.

I *did* have an older device, so I booted that up to get up to about 18 months ago. But when I did so, I was able to get history and bookmarks up to the 14th of April (this year), despite not booting that device since long before then.

I'm not looking a gift horse in the mouth, but where did this come from, and could the other 4 weeks be hiding there?

How do I Sync tabs from one Firefox to another one on a separate computer. Everything syscs except tabs. All Firefox versions are 88.01 (64-Bix). Running on a Linux Kubuntu system, latest version as of 2021.

Firefox updates and decided to sing me out, and I had to reset the password of my sync account (I didn't remember it), this has already happened in the past, but this time Firefox also decided to delete all my synch data without a warning (I have then learned from the assistance that this is the actual procedure now).

so my question is: Is there a way to get access to my synch data after I change my password?

I get an e-mail saying "Last reminder to sync devices!" but I have already linked three devices. Two computers and one Android phone.

Can you please let me know what I need to do? Thanks.

I wanted to log in to my account but this message comes out:Sorry. We have blocked your account.

The confirmation email that we sent to vlasova_lena69@mail.ru, was returned, so we blocked the account to protect your Firefox data.

Recently, I installed an SSD on my computer, which also has my old HHD with my current Firefox account Information.

However, after having had this for a long while, I have forgotten my password and have no recovery keys. I have tried backing up my history, but all I managed to backup was my bookmarks and passwords.

If I were to reset my Sync password in the HHD before switching to the SSD, will I lose all my history and cookies? Is there any other way to manually backup my data without using Sync, or at least to make sure resetting my password won't result in my account data being lost?

Any help or suggestion is appreciated.

When I have several laptops and a desktop, and I sync, which device is the master that the others sync to? Each has a different set of bookmarks and I'd like to keep them all the same. I have synced them all at one time or another, but they're all different still.

I did a factory reset of the computer twice this year, and every time I was syncing my data in Mozilla Firefox, but unfortunately when I log into my account I find all my data has been lost, including passwords and accounts. What's the reason? Can I trust this program after these two attempts ??

After changing my gmail password and deleting some old Firefox logons I am now unable to sign in to Firefox from my laptop. The password and Sync works on my desktop and Android devices. I am 100% certain that the password is correct, but Firefox says wrong password. I have tried uninstalling Firefox and reinstalling. But, the new installation is with all of the old password data. I have also tried to change the Firefox password on the Desktop installation, but here I run into the same issue, I cannot change the password, as Firefox tells me the existing password is incorrect. Can anyone help? This is the first time I have ever experienced performance issues with Firefox, my goto browser.

I'm trying to setup Sync for my two computers - both are older machines Desktop: PowerSpec B333 Netbook: HP Mini-110 4250NR

Both are running Windows 7-Pro and Firefox 88.0.1

Issue: I set up my Sync account (this ID) on my desktop, entered the validation code and everything seemed fine. Try to sign into Sync on the Netbook and it wants a validation code again...which is never sent to my e-mail and the one I used on the Desktop isn't valid for the Netbook.

How can I sign into the Netbook for Sync when I never receive the validation code it insists I need?

This is really not specifically about Firefox Sync or Firefox itself, but I can't find a better match.

 Months ago I changed my email address with Firefox Accounts.  I currently log in with the new email address and I only see the new email address under my account preferences.  But when I add a new device to Firefox Sync, the "Complete Sync Setup" email is going to my old email address, meaning the one I previously used with my Firefox account.

 Can anyone suggest if there is a way to change this or if there is something I am doing wrong?

 Thanks for any help!

How do I transfer the code thing from my camera to Firefox ? I am a greenhorn ! Sorry !

Windows 10 is correct !  There is a bar code thingy in my camera . I aimed it at the Firefox and clicked  and  I guess it took  a picture.  Please tell me what to do with it and how to do  what you say   . It is a Canon digital photography camera

.I can't add anything , because I don't know how --- YET , that is !!!

I'm aware this has been asked before, and got the answer "at present, this problem can't be solved completely at the technical level" which ... well, isn't very informative, and is rather difficult to accept at face value.

Is there some fundamental issue stopping synced tab entries from having some attribute added to them that would help delineate this? To someone with no programming skills this doesn't sound like it would be hard, though of course I have no idea how the Firefox Sync system works. Still, I'm not asking for a function to restore entire sessions across systems, for example (I can see how that would cause conflicts with the current session) but rather just something that would a) sort tabs by window in the synced tabs list, and b) delineate the windows somehow, either by just a separator line or by some heading ("Window n"?). Given that this information clearly exists in the local session (it's able to restore all windows, after all), I hope it will be possible to add this in some form. To reiterate, I don't want/need it to automatically open synced tabs in the "correct" window or anything like that (I can handle that myself easily enough), but simply to keep them visually sorted and separated in the sync list. This way I can avoid spending 30 minutes sorting tabs that I had previously sorted in case of a system crash or working on a new PC.

In addition to this, I hope the sync system can move to match tab order in the browser rather than the current jumbled mess, which ... might be sorted by whatever was last active? I frankly can't tell, but for those of us with many tabs open at once and working across several devices this is a serious obstacle.
