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.

    Hi rober_13,
    Make sure the computer with bookmarks to work is attached to the account and sync before adding a new.

    Sync isn't supposed to be a backup, but a way to sync devices and their current settings.

  • Whenever I run firefox I get "Sync has encountered an error during synchronization: Incorrect account name or password." Sync automatically retrying this action. "

    I am using the new firefox Sync since it is has been implemented without problem. I got this error after you perform the following steps:

    (1) old drive replaced with the new SSD drive and installed Windows 7 drivers etc + Firefox
    (2) deleted AAA@***.com Firefox Sync account
    (3) BBB@***.com Firefox Sync account created
    (4) imported my favorites last folder E:\Users\***\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\***.default\bookmarkbackups on the old drive.

    Since then, whenever I open Firefox I get the above error. If I enter the password 'Firefox Sync' sync works fine until the next time that I restart Firefox.

    Among others, I have:

    (1) updating Firefox is
    (2) signedInUser.json deleted, restarted firefox with Add-ons disabled, account forget Firefox Sync, reconnect to the account
    (3) deleted Firefox Sync account and recreated

  • Unknown error when you try to configure Firefox Sync

    I'm trying to set up Firefox Sync, but I fill my email address on the first line I first the message 'invalid email account' (or similar), but then when I continue to fill with [email protected] he says just "unknown error." I tried several different e-mail addresses on two different computers, but the same boring unknown error message keeps coming up.
    What am I supposed to do about it?

    You can try to reset the preferences of synchronization on the topic: config page.

    Try creating a new profile as a test to check whether 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 make sure not to copy corrupted files.

  • How can I restore my favorites with old Firefox Sync?

    I have sync key and password of the old Firefox Sync. And I want to restore my favorites.
    Three years ago, I use Firefox sync, but as I put t use.

    You must connect to the synchronization using a 29 pre-Firefox version to re-establish a connection to the server and attempt to recover your data. Then follow the instructions to update your sync for Firefox 29 account. See this KB article - synchronize your bookmarks from Firefox, history, passwords, etc.

    Firefox 29 + uses a hidden recovery key and no way to get into the old "key".

    Three years of inactivity? Your data may not be there, Sync was not intended to be a cloud of data storage. It was created to keep synchronized multiple installations of Firefox.

    I didn't know that I needed to upgrade to a newer version of Firefox Sync and I tried to connect several times before understanding. I am now trying to create a new account Firefox Sync, but I get the message 'Outdated attempt limit.'

    Update of the problem: unless someone saw cela and has done something for the account creation time, it seems the solution is "wait" - it is about 2 hours since I was first the message, so I hope others have the problem it will be resolved quickly.

  • 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?
