I-Firefox iOS Isithangami Sokwesekwa

Why is it necessary to authenticate Lockwise frequently on my 2 IOS devices? A dozen times in May and 6 times this month. It happens right when I need to use the app and this activity is delayed by having to authenticate and re-synch. Is something wrong or is this a "feature".

Thanks,

David

I'm getting bad request error messages when I try to sign into Firefox on my iphone. I would like to sync my iphone browser to my Macbook. Right now I'm not able to sync bookmarks or any customization.

I've tried the solutions [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/que.../1277109|here] here and [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/que.../1287819|here] here multiple times, but tabs still do not arrive at FF on any of my synced iOS devices. However, I can see all the open tabs on the other devices.

This used to work, although it has been inconsistent and I've found in the past that I've had to log out and back in on my devices to get it working again. This isn't working this time, though. Any help is appreciated.

On June 16th 2022, I opened Firefox on my ipad and a bunch of tabs that *weren't mine* were loaded (in addition to my own open tabs). It was creepy and bizarre.

Out of caution, I closed the foreign tabs and changed my Firefox and Apple passwords. Then I resynced Firefox. Everything was fine for 3 days afterward.

Today, June 20th 2022, I opened Firefox on my ipad and 4 tabs *that are not mine* loaded, in addition to my open tabs. **I know these tabs aren't mine because they are about things that I have never heard of or searched for in my life and/or random places that aren't even in my state.

My significant other is as baffled as I am. My tech friends have never heard of this happening. Can anyone here figure out what's going on?

Hi, I have moved to a new iPhone. I have got the Firefox app transferred over and have tried to synchronise having clicked the synchronise button. However, despite doing this several times only a handful of sign ins have come across. I have enabled facial recognition. I have on some occasions had a Firefox message screen come up: ‘To use the autofill feature for Firefox you must have a device passcode enabled’. I have tried googling this and am no better informed.

I was away for 3 months and when I returned my laptop would not let me access Firefox for emails. My Iphone would. Now my phone won't but my laptop will. How do I get Firefox working back on my Iphone? Thanks for your assistance! Sharon

I know that I have seen tons of forums already regarding this issue. However, I still don't understand the reason for me being unable to sync my logins and passwords to my smartphone device via the desktop version of Firefox Browser I have. I switch to this browser from Chrome because of the AdBlock, but I still don't understand how it is so much easier and simpler with them to sync while here I am having a hard time to get all logins and passwords to be available on all of my devices.

This appears to be a problem that others have had (with no response). I'm posting it to let the Mozilla team know it continues to be a problem for some users.

Yesterday FF (whatever the latest version is running on an iPad Pro running iPadOS 15.7) crashed, and restarted with the usual "This is embarrassing..." message, and asked whether I want to restore all tabs. I hit yes, and it restarted with all tabs missing. Of course it then proceeded to erase all synced tabs the next time it connects to Mozilla's servers, so now all the tabs are gone.

Questions:

1. Is there a way to restore this to its previous state? As far as I can tell, the moment the mobile FF loses all its tabs and syncs them to the cloud, there's no easy way for the user to get the old tabs back.

2. Is it possible to have Sync set up so it doesn't erase all the tabs automatically? I mean, it should be clear that when this occurs after a crash, this may not be the desired behavior. At the very least, there should be an option to undo.

3. Is there a way to just "bookmark all tabs" on mobile FF? That way users can easily save the current state of their mobile browser without having to bookmark each tab individually. I understand this feature has been requested from time to time, and at some point saw a response from a Mozilla engineer saying it has been implemented but not released for UI reasons.

4. Can I download all my Firefox Sync data? Since Sync seems to write over previous state with no method for recovery, it cannot be relied upon as a backup. I would like to be able to make my own backups of my browser states to the extent I can.

Thanks! In principle I support open source and would like to continue using FF. If these usability / reliability issues can be resolved I think it would make at least a few FF users quite happy.

I don't know if syncing's the problem. My business email is locked. I haven't been able to use it and it is critical that I have this working. Can I chat with someone?
