Firefox Sync has set the wrong device

Today I was installing Firefox Sync, but apparently I have synced the wrong way - the bookmarks from my mobile device has replaced (and remove) bookmarks in my computer!

How to cancel this last sync so I can get my information from office?

How can I configure my computer to be the master and the device (phone) to be the slave?

Try to restore a backup of the bookmark of the day before, that's happened, Firefox keeps 10 days of automatic backups of bookmarks.

  • Firefox Sync fail without the old device.

    Hello community.
    I need help with my sync for Firefox account.
    Recently, my laptop got stolen and for this purpose, I lost all my data.
    I setup sync on my old laptop and let it sync my settings, tabs, extensions etc.

    But now when I try to log on my new camera he asks my encryption key. I have more.
    There is an option that says "I have lost my old camera" and when I click on it, I see that in the screen settings behind my settings and account are displayed, but the button "Next" is grayed out.
    I really need my tabs back.

    Sorry, without having a 2nd unit on this account to sync to 'twinning' with no no not the recovery key, you cannot connect to the synchronization server to recover your data.

  • 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?

  • Bookmarks of Firefox Sync has no Service not available

    Hello
    I have Firefox sync on multiple devices and they all tell me that Firefox Sync is not working due to maintenance of the server. But the status page shows the servers are on the rise. Log files I see that it's just bookmark synchronization that fails, tabs, history etc. work fine. Here's an excerpt from my journal:

    http://pastebin.com/fVn2fZEw

    I've tried reseting my profile (Finally, make a new one), nothing works.

    There are some performance issues with the server Sync (Basic) yesterday and today.

  • Sync has replaced the existing bookmarks instead of "synchronization"... How can I recover lost bookmarks?

    Decided to try to use the bookmark option in sync of 4 FF. I had been using the other options of synchronization without problem. My goal was to get to my work PC bookmarks in sync with my PC at home. I turned sync bookmark on my work PC, when I Rose House and restart my computer, before realizing what had happened to FF had crushed my favorites on my home PC with bookmarks of my work PC. I have now lost ALL my favorites on my home PC. How can I get these?

    I didn't have time to try to save my favorites from my PC at home, apparently when you set the only instance of synchronization to use the bookmark that they all are set to sync. I thought I'd have a chance to save bookmarks from my PC at home before I activated on this computer to synchronize bookmarks.

    Firefox automatically saves backups of your Favorites, you must restore a backup of the day before that happened. See this support article.

  • How can I stop Firefox Sync to synchronize the on/off status of the addons?

    I like that Firefox Sync allows you to synchronize the addons are installed in my browser, but I don't like that she insists on synchronization also their on/off status.

    I have a desktop computer, a laptop and a work computer, and I cannot or do not want to run all the addons everywhere. For example, I want to run NoScript at work, but I don't want to run it at home because I have something implemented at the level of the router.

    Do I have any options in addition to throwing the baby out with the bath water by completely disabling the addon sync?

    I found a solution on my own. I should have researched more before asking, but maybe that this will help others also:

    Edit: I've tested this and it seems to work.

  • Photo printing choose the wrong device

    I have a printer that is also a fax machine. When it has been configured, it created a printer id and a fax number. I set the printer as the default printer and it works very well when printing documents. However, when I print a picture it automatically selects the fax id and I have to manually select the printer id. Is it possible that I can set the default printer when printing photos.

    2 phone connects to the network and the Date & time page, telling me that the network will be set the time.

    3 date and time appear: April 22, 01:27

    4 after a short delay, I hear the traffic between the phone and Rogers and the time is reset to April 21, 01:24.

  • Seizure semi-automatic Firefox redirects me to the wrong Web site

    Sometimes, when I type a URL of Web site in the address bar, it autocompletes the URL of the Web site, but then after I pressed Enter, it goes to the wrong website (the website that appears first on the drop-down list).

    My example is when you type 'tw' in the address bar, it autocompletes, 'twitch.tv', but when you press Enter, it goes to, "twitter.com".

    Follow these steps to delete data in a drop-down list:

    1. Select an entry in the drop-down list with the mouse or the cursor key
      do not click with the mouse or press the Enter key
    2. Press the DELETE key (on a Mac: shift + del) to delete the highlighted entry

    There are two prefs associated auto-fill in the address bar that you can examine and change on the topic: config page.

    • browser.urlbar.autoFill
    • browser.urlbar.autoFill.typed

    You can open the topic: config page via the address bar.
    You can accept the warning and click on "I'll be careful" to continue.

  • Is it possible for 2 + Firefox Sync accounts use the same e-mail address?

    I have two Windows accounts, each with its own different Firefox profiles, (with 'match' accounts and profiles on other devices on my LAN) and therefore need to implement synchronization for each. Ideally, I would use the email the same for both accounts Sync - naturally with different passwords. Is this possible?

    No, the email address is the "username" on behalf of synchronization, you need a different email address for each synchronization account that you are configuring.
