I-Firefox ye-Android Isithangami Sokwesekwa

I have side loaded Firefox (68.11.0) onto my Kindle Fire but am unable to sync my bookmarks. (I was able to log in to my Firefox account only by going to: https://accounts.firefox.com/signin) I cannot log in to Firefox sync from settings. It spins endlessly! There is no option to "SYNC AND SAVE DATA". Your help would be appreciated. Thank you!

Can y pls tell if there is a way to get back my information, mostly bookmarks, thank you bye

I recently bit the bullet and am transferring from chrome to firefox. I was able to transfer my hundreds of book marks from chrome into desktop firefox, but I cannot get them on my phone. I saw one user suggest doing a "sync now" to force it, but when I tab "sync now" nothing happens and it continues reading "Last synced: Never" and I am logged into the same accounts on desktop and mobile.

How do I get this to work?

I have Firefox sync set up for my desktop and Android. For the past moth or so Firefox on Android can't send tabs to my desktop as it says "No devices connected". Despite this I can send tabs from my desktop to the Android install.

I am using the latest ESR on Windows, and have used both the latest main release and beta versions of Firefox. This issue has been ongoing for several versions. Full uninstall and removal of local files for both devices has not helped, neither has signing in an out. It seems that the Android side simply cannot see there's other devices period.

i need external help submitting this info, absolutely every single page the samsung store and google play store work fine. im using the android version of firefox of the latest version.

>when i visit youtube or any other page as well as download small files on BOTH my super computer and my android it works completely fine. when i visit the accounts page and sync page on firefox on my super computer it works fine.

>when i try to visit the sync page issued from the menu in firefox android on samsung it completely blocks it

>when i visit the main mozilla page and click accounts and login it works fine.

bottom line:: samsung is violating ianna law to be overzealous about backdoor security.

Hi, I installed Firefox on my computer and imported my passwords from a csv file (exported from Opera). The passwords were imported correctly and I can see them on my computer, but they are not showing in Firefox on my smartphone with Android. I am logged in to my Firefox account on both, computer and smartphone, and I have Sync for Logins enabled. From what I can see, there is no way to import the passwords from csv file on Android. What else could I do?

I recently reinstalled windows. Then I installed firefox and after logging in I tried to sync my old data. But nothing is syncing. I had a lot of bookmark saved but they aren't coming back. I tried reinstalling, Logged in through mobile but nothing. Seems like it all got deleted somehow. Now How can I get back my data(bookmarks, extensions etc)?

Hello: Have 3 Android phones with same FF login. Spent 3 hours today creating the folders I needed and moving 200+ bookmarks on one phone into the folders. Logged in and synced. Logged in the 2nd phone and synced.

Folders were created but no bookmarks in them. Resynced the 1st phone and it emptyed the folders and copied the bookmarks from the 2nd phone's top folder back to the first phone wiping out my work to move the bookmarks into the folders.

I have used FF for many years and not seen a failure of the magnitude.

HOW IS SYNC SUPPOSED TO WORK?

Please give us back a way to manually export the bookmarks for backup and install on new phones. Samsung and Google copy processes for old to new phones are terrible. Third party apps are no better. Even a way to copy the litesql would be a major improvement.

Also question why the folder creation and moving bookmarks is so convoluted?

Why not click on a folder, click add, add name, click done.

Click on edit a bookmark, click move, present folder list, click desired folder, present OK or Decline, click your choice, click done.

This has got to work better than jumping all over the screen following the current convoluted processes.

Thanks,

Ken

I have an old phone which runs Android 4.4.2. The manufacturer does not let me upgrade the OS to a later version. The phone has a copy of the most recent version of Firefox for Android 4.4.2, which is Firefox 68.0. In case it matters, it's the version of Firefox from F-Droid. As it is not possible to upgrade the OS version, it is also not possible to upgrade the Firefox version.

This version of Firefox is too old for Firefox Sync. It is possible to log in, but nothing is synchronised.

I need to copy all bookmarks from the phone to my computer. How can I do this?

I'm trying to sync my bookmarks from Firefox mobile (Android) to my laptop (Dell) for the first time but there's no "Sync and save data" option under the dot menu on my phone nor is there any equivalent that I can find. How do I proceed?

In firefoxe's documents, please ...

• provide summary of what needs to be achieved before syncing can take place (there are many ways to sync and almost as many ways to cause corruption of the data ... (don't make us guess and do trial and error

• does syncing of the devices have to be with all the devices at the same time?
• which device has the master base. I have assumed my PC contains the master data base.
• If I press sync now, will the device I am on sync to the master ... or will the other devices sync to my current device. Push or pull?
• If another device was updated last, does it override all other devices? If a login and password were removed after it was changed on my current device, does that override my current device.
• Are the any known sources of corruption of the data base?
• Can only one device, the current one device edit the data base.
• Must all devices remain connected even when not syncing?
• Please mark documents when predicated... and point to the latest.
• If I have multiple computers, do your answers still hold?

... I am have lots of corruption problems...

The option to "sync and save your data" no longer appears in the main menu, nor under settings. Oddly, I can still send tabs from my laptop to my phone, just not the other way around. The option to "connect another device" in the share menu uselessly tells me "to send a tab, sign in to Firefox on at least one other device," when I've already done so.

In short, this doesn't appear to work anymore: [to set up Firefox Sync in Firefox for Android]

I'd love to have a feature where I can choose to open all my synced tabs on a new device at once instead of having it as a list under synced, as it would look on the original device I have them opened on. Maybe have that option to open all tabs under synced.

Thanks, Judy
