Firefox Sync has restored after a mysterious Win8.1 'no - system restore' by ~ 1 month; addons lost and bookmarks in this period.

Situation quite messy/weird here. I woke up this morning to find that my Win8.1 was reduced to a 1 month whose state of my Firefox Sync State. Bookmarks seemed to be updated but not the series of modules. I clicked the sync button in the hope it would refresh things on the last saved state to my e-mail last night, but he churned through and then my favorites, it was missing the last 1 month. I'm having problems with WIn8.1, too, that event viewer shows no system restore (and will not allow me even open the system restore) and event poster Viewer half a dozen updates Apps I never user as the only activity that happened during the night. Any ideas on wtf that happened here and how fix?

  • Firefox Sync is disconnected after booting

    After upgrading to Firefox Sync 1.4, Sync does not automatically connect (or synchronize later) after the launch. This doesn't seem to be a problem of less than 1.3. I do not save passwords or a master password. Only passwords in my FF password mgr are for synchronization (login + encryption).

  • 30 FireFox sync has stopped working with Windows 8.1 Refresh?

    I just had to update 8.1 Windows and somehow, I got my old favorites expired Internet Explorer in Firefox and I lost all of my current FireFox Favorites and cannot bring them by the synchronization because the synchronization does not work. I need to return all the bookmarks I have saved in Firefox, the past two years. I tried to reset Firefox and from synchronization and safe mode still will not work.
    Will I get an email or how to find if a person pick up?

  • my search bar (22 FF) has suddenly become unusable; hitting enter does nothing (now get only toward sites via links and bookmarks)

    I am a FF user for a long time. Now uses version 22 (which seems to have updated from 18 in itself even if I had it to ask me before the update - but 22 2 has worked well for me once I had solved the problem of screen being so great he hid my menu at the top and tabs). Now, all of a sudden, just in the last week, recording a (valid) url in the search bar and pressing on enter "does not" do anything. No search functionality at all because that hitting enter does not cause FF take any notice of putting me in a URL for a site that I want to go to the (I use the same sites over and over so not only some new site acting upward).

    Not my keyboard or mouse is defective; they work as usual in other programs I constantly use - email, database of inventory - and no update or the other program, in Word, Excel, NotePad, my photo program, what that is. Security Essentials last updated a week ago, but I can't see inside to see if it changed anything. Am a XP Pro user and update (until next year, at least!). Keyboard is a real Elite Force, the change (wired) mouse. Have used for a couple of years is therefore not new to me.

    Only way that I can use 22 FF in the last days to get to "any" site, including mine, is to spend on websites pinned to my screen open or my favorites. I tried unpin some sites on my logon screen and then type in their URL and pressing on enter but which has not changed anything - the search bar is always unusable and hit "enter" doesn't do anything.

    So why my search bar did stop working? Is there a solution?

    Hi aaabooks

    You are running Firefox in compatibility mode?

    You can open the properties of the desktop Firefox shortcut via the context menu and check under the tab "compatibility".

    Make sure that all items are disabled in the tab "Compatibility" in the Properties window.

    Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problems.

    See "create a profile":

    If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a profile in the new profile, but be careful not to copy files corrupted to avoid transporting on the problem.

  • Firefox Sync lost all my data after 3 months of inactivity. Can I fix this?

    Is this normal for Firefox Sync wipe data after a period of inactivity? Account.Services.Mozilla.org said that I use 158 KB of data. This sounds like the amount of data that a fresh firefox profile would be download Sync, or is it perhaps even my data?

    Is it possible to access the logs? There is nothing in my profile weaves/logs directory.

    Hi dismayy,
    There is a new synchronization service that was introduced in version 29. Accounts.Firefox.com is the place to sign in. sync your bookmarks from Firefox, history, passwords, etc.

    However, to access the logs are the same. With respect to the loss of data, please make a local backup to back up and restore the information contained in the profiles of Firefox

    3. Logs and error messages are placed here

  • How to connect to the firefox sync through sync key?

    Hello.
    Prior to re - install Windows, I saved my Firefox Sync key.
    After installing windows, I can't to access my firefox sync account for my favorites! It is said: unknown account, register!
    But I have a KEY, I need my favorites back!

    Help me, please, to the recovery of my favorites back!
    Thank you.

    You must use a very old version of Firefox if this version has always used a separate key for synchronization.
    29 Firefox and later no longer use a specific key synchronization, but derive the key to the synchronization of the password of the Firefox account that you use to sign in to this account.

    You need a version of Firefox 28 to connect to an old account of synchronization that uses the key of the synchronization.

  • Firefox sync fails to connect to the server.

    Firefox sync has not worked on my laptop for the last days. It fails with the error
    "Unable to connect to the server. Synchronize automatically retrying this action. »
    Sync works fine on my Android device on the same network. I tried to disconnect and reconnect my sync account and also tried to synchronize in safe mode without success. The error in the synchronization log report: https://pastebin.mozilla.org/8834320.
    About: config the services.sync.clusterURL is not set. services.sync.tokenServerURI has the value default 'https://token.services.mozilla.com/1.0/sync/1.5'.

    Understand the problem. I had activated FIPS compliance on my software security device. Apparently, WeaveCrypto used by sync is not FIPS compatible. I disabled FIPS now and sync works fine. Bug report: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=443386

  • Trying to reset my password Firefox sync, but reset email is never received despite many attpemts.

    I have a sync account. My password does not work. I had several requests for a password reset email, but none was received. There is nothing in my spam folder. I'm stuck. I have an account of my key synchronization (from the old account synchronization), but I can't find any information on how to use it to reset my account. Very very frustrating.

    Hi mrauth,

    Firefox Sync has been abandoned in favour of Firefox accounts - so that users no longer have to worry about the keys to Sync.

    You should be able to reset your password via the page Firefox accounts:

    Please let us know if it works, or if you have any other questions. Please also check that you are using the correct email address for recovery.

  • Firefox sync forget me each session

    Whenever I run Firefox, Sync has disconnected from me and I have to re-setup Sync for it to start my sync data. When I forgot to do so, I get to my other machine to find that my favorites are not synchronized. My settings dictate that almost everything is disabled (history, passwords, etc.) whenever I close the browser, but I don't think that my connection sync would be part of this (and maybe the problem has nothing to do with it). This happens on several computers desktop, Mac and PC, who share all the same strictly "clear memory" settings every time FF is closed.
