I installed Firefox onto my third device, and it synced my data, including my extensions. The only thing is, they don't show up in my tool bar like they do on my other devices. I tried several different things, but the icons for the extensions don't even show up in the customization tab. They don't autofill or work at all, despite saying that they are installed and active.

Is the third device a mobile device, or also Windows?

If it's also Windows, one common reason for this is if that installation runs in automatic private browsing mode. Extensions need to be individually enabled to run in private windows. More info: Extensions in Private Browsing.

Was that it?

It is on windows. I did that, but only 1Password showed up, and it's gray. I can't touch it or get into it. I went into customize toolbar, and I was able to drag the icons onto my toolbar. Thank you!!!
