I-Firefox ye-Android Isithangami Sokwesekwa

'I took the photo of the QR code on my android [Samsung A11] - then nothing. What is the next step to sync with my pc? Is it done? How can I verify that it is synced? Thanks so much. At almost 78 with active cancer technology is now way past me. Have a great day. Thanks a bunch for your response. Please keep in mind I am totally ignorant and need answers broken down to the minutest detail. [used to do that for others] Sandie Lynch

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?

Android Firefox app can no longer sync. (A 10)

It suddenly logged me out, and I can log in, but I never get to set up the app, nor does it stay logged in. Deleting all app data an downloading a new copy has only made stuff worse. The log in photo of squiggly stamp no longer works either, I still have to do the annoying and slow, buggy 3 point log in, I log in, but I never get to sync. Is Firefox history too now, just like Thunderbird?

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)?

I'm on Firefox Nightly 105.0a1. Recently, the synced tab is empty (see picture). However, my device still manage to sync, and can still send tabs to other devices. Also, my device tabs can still be seen by other device. Is this a bug? I have tried relogin but no luck.

Btw, the second picture is EOL firefox. I know it but it's still operational.

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 am using Firefox on an amazon fire HD 10 tablet. The When I try to sync, a new tab opens and the activity indicator spins but nothing ever syncs or logs in to my account. I checked and triple checked all the settings and everything is setup to allow syncing but it acts as though amazon is blocking it from logging in.

Is there anything I can do to fix this issue.
