I had about 500 tabs on FF on my iphone open. The browser crashed and now all of those seem to be gone. "Recently Closed" is empty. Starting the browser just opens an empty page. I had sync turned one but oh magic the synced tabs pretty much immediately diappeared from the other devices as well. Any ideas how I might be able to recover those tabs? Could they still be saved somewhere on the iphone or in the cloud?

Hello, Setting up a new iPad and signing into Mozilla fire fox, I found myself though I see on my phone I have more than one Mozilla account. On the iPad there are several with no username and no password. This is the case for Amazon? as well. For example, Amazon, UK Amazon, Germany, Amazon it’s only Amazon? france, Amazon?, USA, etc.. each time I have to write in my email and look up my password on another device, and then ask the iPad to remember the password and the password is NEVER remembered. Sorry, I don’t know why all caps. I am hoping a synch will clear things up, but do I sing from my phone or do I sync from an old computer? If I do have several Mozilla accounts, probably because I encountered password trouble and created a new ID, there could be a great amount of Helter skelter. If I sync more than one of these to the new device, will they all remain on the device or will they be faithful to the account that I am signed in on?

How do I tell which account I am using in Mozilla fire fox

Is there a trick to get Mozilla firefox to merge with the one on my phone for example, where things seem to be pretty straightforward.

I apologize because I’m not asking a clear question. Has anybody run into a problem of having their fire fox password system absolutely non-functional, and in addition to that on an Apple device, that the iCloud Keychain doesn’t want to remember the password, either, nor do the websites want to “remember me”.

If I know more, I’ll come back for help. Thank you, thank you all very much.

In profile on Desktop, my phone doesn't even show up as one of my devices with Firefox browser, tho it's been on there for years. So long, I'd forgotten I'd chosen Focus. Is it so private even Firefox doesn't know about it?

Does syncing require that I ALSO download Firefox ADHD in order to sync with my desktop?

Thanks, c8

Hello,

This morning, I have accidentally close all my tabs (60+ tabs, which were open for more than 5+ years), while I wanted to reopen a recently closed tab. I suppose that this mistake was due to the sensitivity of the touch screen, since both option are next to each other in the menu.

I see multiple problems here: - There was no dialog asking me if I wanted to close all my tabs. While on Desktop this dialog exists. So for a long time I had no clue what just happened. - As I remember, Firefox did not gave me the opportunity to undo my action.

Now, the question is: How can I reopen all my closed tabs ? The menu "Recently closed tabs" have only 10 items, and those do not belong to the 60+ tabs that have been closed.

Is there a way to reopen all the tabs that I accidentally closed (I do not use Firefox Sync) ?

Thanks in advance

After Clean Firefox Install. I can login with Firefox (iPad) to Paypal. Login request consists of username, password and SMS which works fine.

After that: I log in to my Account ( https://accounts.firefox.com/) to synchronize my bookmarks.

From this time I have a login problem with Paypal. On the Paypal login page I can enter my user name and password. The option to verify with SMS is missing. Instead, a message: We can not log you in!

Safari works always fine. A log out does not solve the problem. Only a clean install and no login at accounts.firefox.com helps to solve the problem.

I have opened another Firefox account to test with a fresh account. Unfortunately also the same problem

But I need to sync my bookmarks. Any Idea?

The option to "sync and save your data" no longer appears in the main menu, nor under settings. Oddly, I can still send tabs from my laptop to my phone, just not the other way around. The option to "connect another device" in the share menu uselessly tells me "to send a tab, sign in to Firefox on at least one other device," when I've already done so.

In short, this doesn't appear to work anymore: [to set up Firefox Sync in Firefox for Android]
