  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.

• My phone can't use Firefox Sync, says she is "obsolete".

  On my Samsung Galaxy S Blaze running Ice Cream Sandwich, I'm suddenly having trouble with Firefox Sync. It was working fine yesterday, and today, I noticed that an update of Firefox for Android has been installed.

  So I'll try to send a tab of my phone directly to my computer, but no dice. I already checked the "Accounts and sync" part of my phone settings. Firefox Sync is listed with the correct e-mail address, and I have not deleted my phone in the list of devices allowed for my account. Curiously, Firefox Sync is shown as being obsolete. My phone literally contains my e-mail address and under it "Firefox Sync (not recommended).

  Anyone else having this problem, and is there a solution for this? Any info would be much appreciated.

  We decided in Firefox 29 we were not satisfied with the user experience and had temporarily agreed to no ship there with Firefox 29. We hope to be in a future release.

• I want to set up Firefox sync from scratch using an account I own which shows as 'already underway use'.

  I had a problem with my old Firefox Sync account (from work, using my work email address) and I want to implement synchronization using my personal account. When I try to set up synchronization, my only options seem to be "Create new account" or "I have an account". If I select Create a new account, I'm stuck because technically the account has already been used (I've set up Sync a few years before using my account personal but never used), even if it is not in use on any of my machines. If I select I have an account, he wants me to synchronize the device with a new one, but I don't have a second to synchronize. I want to use my existing account to set up the synchronization from scratch on my main machine. How can I get this done?

  on another note: firefox 29 that will be released at the end of the month will use a different account system (not compatible with the current accounts of sync), then it might not be useful effort setting a synchronization with the old powers now: synchronize your bookmarks from Firefox, history, passwords, etc.

• How can I make Firefox Sync synchronize manually?

  Here's my situation:

  I synchronize my bookmarks, passwords and extensions with Firefox Sync.

  When I start Firefox, it asks me my master password as Firefox sync wants to synchronize at startup and I set up a master password.

  So what is happening, I type a website address, the password Master dialog appears, receives the focus and I accidentally type a part of the address of the site in the password dialog box I reject using escape, and then I have to retype the address of the site.

  A solution for me would be to disable automatic synchronization (or least just after startup).

  Is there a way to do this?

  (I'm not afraid of the subject: config, but unfortunately he is there nothing that could remedy.) If not, could drop this as a feature request in Bugzilla, or as a UX question?)

  Note that you can also specify a time limit upward to 300 seconds through the services.sync.autoconnectDelay preference.

• Firefox Sync gave a new facility with no priority of settings or default on an established instance

  I created Firefox on a new Windows 10 PC setup and activated my account Firefox Sync on this instance.
  When I got back to my regular desktop PC, I find that Firefox has acquired the new PC settings rather than on the new PC acquire the established PC settings.

  I was expecting the opposite to happen.

  While the installation of new PC would have parameters of age "more recent" the established PC that was put in place several months ago and on technical, the most recent stamp usually takes precedence, in this case, where the settings and installation dates are only minutes apart, that the direction of the synchronization must to were questioned and confirmed.

  Thank you.
  I did it via the proposed link.
  Although I thought it was the right place for this sort of thing, given the name of "Support Forum".

• Firefox sync (Linux Mint 17.02)

  Hey there! I tried to set up Firefox sync. Remove the .mozilla folder in my home directory synchronization does not work yet to reinstall Firefox several times. I tried to use Firefox 41.02 and 42.0.
  The sync connection is successful and Firefox tries to sync (blue circle), but nothing happens. When you go to about: preferences #sync, then to 'Manage', it takes a while to load before you get an "unexpected error".
  I'm trying to sync between my laptop and my desktop, the two Linux Mint 17.02.

  Any suggestions?

  Hello

  Your first journal suggests synchronization completed. It has a few warnings bookmark weird and disturbing, but otherwise it's okay.

  Your second newspaper told me that you are on a network of Unitymedia.

• clear history of search - Firefox sync

  Is there a way to permanently delete the search history stored in Firefox sync?
  Although I have deleted the story down and synchronize, it always stores my recent search terms.
  I can see the search terms when I create a new profile.
  The problem is not on the question of ease of use. Rather a matter of privacy.

  You can request a new password synchronization which will erase all your data on the server.

• Firefox sync calendar

  Is there a way to plan the Firefox sync with Android? Often, I have a web page on my desk which would be very convenient access on the road using my phone, but I find the synchronization happens only once a day, and usually it's too late.

  Thank you

  Hello

  I had a quick glance and I don't see whatever it is that I was sure would work. I don't want to suggest something that would not work or (even worse) break your copy of Firefox.

  That said, Firefox for Android is an ongoing project, and it's something they might want to consider. I feed it to the team so that they can consider for the future.

• Firefox Sync issues

  I have BIG problems with Firefox Sync. I have rearranged the books on the Firefox browser on my laptop, including other penetrating Mobile bookmarks. The changes would have disclosed on my phone. But nothing has changed.

  I don't know what the problem is! I tried to unplug the two accounts and raise them, but not only did it does NOT solve the problem with bookmarks, but now I can't change the options for that I want to sync on my phone AND my phone will not even update which is synchronized! It SUCKS!

  Is anyway to fix this? My laptop uses Windows 8.1 and my PC and my smartphone Galaxy Note 3 use 39 Version of Firefox.

  Anyone know how this can be corrected?

  Hi LEAPS2HI,
  Thank you for your question. As you moved the folder of bookmarks Mobile bookmarks, they then also will appear in the folder of bookmarks from office. However as they do not make duplicates I think that it can display in both files.

  1. Is mobile bookmarks file still there on the desk?
  2. Is the favorite of office yet on the Mobile device?

  Bookmark management is one of the best features requested for sync. I made some experiences and when you add a bookmark on the Mobile device will be added to this folder. However from the desktop you can move in and out of this folder. I moved one from a mobile phone to the bookmarks Menu and he moved to this folder on the Mobile device.

  First make sure that the automatic synchronization is enabled and you tried to make a change, and then click Tools > synchronize now.

  My Firefox Sync fails to connect (error.login.reason.network) and I run through all the solutions available here as well as the audit of local LAN problems, but whenever I make a change I'm supposed to just for the next synchronization? How many times they occur? The calendar can be changed? There is no article of support to force a synchronization or it syncs on the observation.

• 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?
