• Remove my firefox sync account and now cannot get back in.

  I've recently updated firefox 12 which seems to break my firefox sync and did not allow to me re - pair my PC or any other device to my account. To try to resolve the problem, I decided to delete my account. After doing this, I created a new firefox sync account on my PC using the same email address I used in my previously deleted sync account.

  It seems to work very well and so I tried pairing my iPhone (using firefox home) for this new account of synchronization. I used the password of firefox home gave me and according to firefox on my PC, the synchronization was successful. However, a minute late, my iPhone came with the error message "connection failed: unable to communicate with the server (503).

  I then tried to log in the Web site of firefox sync with my email address (https://account.services.mozilla.com/)and got the message "we couldn't log. I then clicked on the forgotten your password link and entered my e-mail address and received another error message "unable to locate the account. Please check username "!

  It would appear that the deletion of my account and create a new one with the same email address a stuff everything upward? I don't want to use a different email address.

  Have you tried again to create a new account to synchronize with the same e-mail address?

• Cannot use my old firefox sync account after reinstalling

  After reinstalling firefox I can't use my old Firefox Sync account. I am told that there is no such account here https://accounts.firefox.com and I created a new account with the same email as my old account.

  After some research, I found this https://account.services.mozilla.com/ which I can connect with my old account.

  Now, my problem is that I want to retrieve the information I had in my old sync and I can't find a way to do it.

  In addition, because I lived the problems of severe performance using firefox, I deleted some files in my machine with Firefox (after uninstalling) including what appeared to be the location of the profile for firefox.

  What is really important to me is: how to recover my old Firefox Sync account data or synchronize it with the new Mozilla account?

  Thank you

  Hello, firefox 29 and up is using a different synchronization system which is not compatible with the establishment of accounts in the old versions.

  in this case, you'd probably have to use a workaround and download the version of firefox before 28, turn off the automatic update for the moment (in options > advanced > update), bind it to the old sync account (with user name, password & recovery key) and upgraded after you successfully restore your data in this way...

  Install an older version of Firefox
  Synchronize your bookmarks Firefox, history, passwords, etc.

• I had synced all my info (passwords etc.) in my old laptop, but today, when I connected my new laptop with my firefox sync account, I found my saved info.

  Before coming to my new place, I saved all my info like passwords, bookmarks etc in my old laptop and they sync with my Firefox sync account. But after that I came to my new place, I bought a new laptop. But when I signed into my account to synchronize Firefox in my new laptop computer, I have not found all of these bookmarks or saved passwords. What should I do?

  Yes, I would say that your passwords have disappeared. When synchronization key is "updated" as indicated in this part of the synchronization log that I cropped, the server is deleted user data because that data doesn't help. This sync key is the encryption key for the user data when these data are user devices that are connected to Firefox Sync. No one, except the person with the right key of synchronization (the "owner" of this synchronization account) can use this data data are scrambled.

  I'm curious to see the full text of the last two files sync-newspapers, 11KO and 38 k is a lot more data than usual for a synchronization log. On my 3 accounts of separate sync I usually see sync-newspapers of 3 KB to 8 KB when there is an error-. Problem is that this forum software does not downloads of files and do a copy / paste of that data in the response box to retain the formatting of line - makes it very difficult to read and follow the sequence of events.

  Sorry, we did not have an outcome.

• How to use Firefox Sync to recover lost bookmarks

  I have a Firefox Sync account and I synced my firefox with it data. But I completely erased my PC, so I use Firefox Sync to retrieve my data from firefox?

  Hi Zukokun!

  Unfortunately the synchronization is not a backup service. It uses a central server to synchronize data between devices, but these data are not maintained if it is not maintained locally (i.e. in your computer).

  Having said that, sometimes if the reconfiguration is fast data can always be on the server.

  Good luck.

• How can I remove a Firefox sync account?

  Firefox 17.0.1 I can't find any option to delete a sync account. System requires that I have 'set up a sync account', an account of synchronization using my e-mail address already exists, but I can't sync it an iPhone already synced via "bookmarks". So I want to delete the existing account 'sync' and start again.

  COR - el, please understand my problem and the solution. As you indicated, the URL "account.services.mozilla.com/" provided the ability to remove the SYNC account in question. Much appreciated!

• Can I delete my old Firefox sync account if I have a new one that uses the same email address?

  Hello

  I took off all my devices a synchronization of the old account and set up a new synchronization. In this process, I used the same as before email address.
  I have no use of my old account of synchronization, so the question is:
  Can I remove the old account from synchronization (via https://account.services.mozilla.com/ ) and - implicitly - all associated data without affecting my new account of Firefox (and its data) somehow?

  Thank you!

  Even if you use the same email address the two synchronize the old and the new are separated. As long as you are sure that all devices use new synchronization then the old one is no longer necessary.

  • This applies to the new sync
    Why can't I synchronize my passwords?
    This is a problem of security and may be overcome in a future version of Firefox or synchronization. It is one of the reasons for some users can stay on the synchronization of the former. Both versions offer slightly different regarding how and what features they will sync.

• I reinstalled Windows, doesn't have a backup Firefox bookmarks (I tought Firefox Sync that will do for me) and now it seems I've lost them. What can I do?

  After reinstalling Windows and reinstall Firefox, I had firefox sync with (I think) a new product key, because the former was lost. After all the steps when finished and by pressing the sync now button, no synchronization has been made. None of the old don't bookmarks links or directories we are restored. Help, please! Thank you.

  You get your data from the server without the adequate SyncKey key, which is used to encrypt your data to go on the server and decrypted when it is uploaded to Firefox. When you get a new SyncKey to an account, the server is removed from all your data, so it does not fall into the wrong hands.

• Why the 'AccountDetails' window give me only backward, finishing, cancel the options when you try to create a Firefox Sync account and does not allow me to set up complete?

  I'm trying to set up Firefox sync. I go to tools > configure sync.
  The box opens.
  I click on "create a new account. I have complete my account information. The only options I give at the bottom of the box are 'Back', 'End', 'Cancel '. There is no button "next". I click on "Finish" and the box disappears. "Even when I try to click on" Synchronization Options "nothing happens.

  Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).

  • Do NOT click on the reset button on the startup window Mode without failure.

• Firefox sync account?

  How can I install firefox on an iPod Touch? When I got the try, I get an error message "Unable to submit your email, please try again (404)" I don't have a 'sync account '.

  Hello, due to the restrictive policy of apple it is unfortunately not possible to put in place and provide independent third-party browsers for idevices.
  
  Mozilla is against bringing the rendering motor & javascript in firefox on iOS, because apple only allows the use of its own webkit in terms for developers - as long as it does, firefox and the ecosystem of the addon can be ported to iOS devices.

• I can't find the Firefox tab to access the option to add a Firefox sync account to my computer desktop from. Where is he?

  The online instructions say click on the Foxfire tab at the top of the page. I can't find this tab. Where can I find this tab so I can create an account to sync to my desktop?

  Hi skadish,

  If you do not see the Firefox tab, you can simply go to Tools > Options > Sync to implement our sync account. The Firefox button can be activated by going on view > toolbars and activation of the menu bar. You don't have to use the menu of Firefox, it's a personal preference.

  Hope this helps!
