What type of encryption using Firefox Sync?
Can someone tell me what type of Firefox Sync encryption encryption using on the server? This has not been answered in the FAQ.
There is probably no additional encryption on the server. Everything is done on your computer before you transfer the data via a secure connection
Of https://wiki.mozilla.org/Labs/Weave/Crypto
The Weave password is what makes this work. Remember, your browser already knows your passwords and the history of the form: it is decrypted everything in your local memory. By using the password, we encrypt your information on your local computer. Then, we use industry standard SSL to relay information encrypted to the server.

Anyone know what type of encryption is used for the traffic between the client and Server source Office (VM) connection? Thank you.
Hello
HTTPS (SSL) is used between the Client view and connect to the server (or Security Server). This is compatible with HTTPS from a browser to a secure web site.
RDP is encapsulated in this tunnel HTTPS. Between view connection server (or security) and the virtual desktop VM is RDP.

Delete my data from a browser using Firefox Sync navigation
Yesterday I started using a tab in Firefox for Android, but I accidentally spent in a regular tab. And a junk site got registered in my story and as semi-automatic sugestion... I have not found a way to remove these individual entries, I'm desperate so I deleted all navigation data in Firefox for Android. I use Firefox Sync and I still have my old data in my phone (it uses Ubuntu), but I tried and I can't get the old data in Android.
I have 3 questions:
-Is is possible to remove entries of the individual history and AutoComplete suggestion in Firefox for Android?
-Is it possible to recover the old data of navigation in my Android device?Hello
Yes and Yes.- You can open a new tab and see the history list. TAP and hold unwanted history and select 'delete '.
- You'd have to synchronize the device on the account. Also you can drag to the story in a new tab and drag between history and history is synchronizes to confirm if it's there.

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.

Can I use Firefox Sync on a public computer, like I did with Xmarks?
I'll miss Xmarks. How can I use Firefox Sync when I go to an internet café?
You cannot use an Internet café to access bookmarks, the add-on Firefox Sync is limited to synchronization data, it does not include an option to access the bookmarks from any computer online. There are other companies that offer online access to favorites such as Google Bookmarks and Delicious bookmarks.
Xmarks can continue, but you will have to pay to use it, for details, see http://blog.xmarks.com/?p=1945

I have my username and password but never kept the recovery key original.
What I read, I tried to use her replace all data with the server, but without the original key is not let me, and if I request a new key, it says that it will erase the info on the server.
Can anyone help?
Thank youI'm sorry, but if you do not have a backup of the sync key then all data stored on the server is lost and cannot be recovered.
It is always better to make a backup locally on a Flash DRIVE or CD/DVD-ROM because synchronization is not intended to be used in this way.

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.

What is the different between firefox "Sync Key" and "key recovery"?
The problem is: I can't get my data from server. I have my key to 'Sync', and I used it several times before, but now Firefox says its wrong. Are 'sync key' and two 'recovery key' names to a single key or its two different keys?
There is no difference between tho two names, they both refer to the sync key that is used to encrypt data locally before sending it to the sync server.
Try creating a new profile as a test to check whether your profile is the source of the problems.
See "create a profile":
- https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/Profile-Manager-create-and-remove-Firefox-profiles
- http://KB.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
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.

I can use different bookmarks in an hour?
If there are problems with bookmarks and you've lost a little so you can try to restore an older copy of JSON in the bookmarkbackups folder.
If you've accidentally deleted bookmarks, then use "organize > Cancel ' in the Bookmark Manager (Bookmarks > show all bookmarks) to recover.
Hold the button is the first of the three buttons on the toolbar in the library (Bookmark Manager).
That only works if you have not closed Firefox.
If it does not work so that you can restore bookmarks from a JSON backup.
This will replace all current bookmarks and you lose the favorites that have been added since the backup was created.See:
