Firefox for iOS Community Forum

There is no sign in button next to sync and save on my Ipad in the menu or under settings, I have spent over an hour on trying to sync my bookmarks with no response from mozilla. Support is very lacking.

I can't get saved logins on my web browser to appear in the iOS Firefox app.

I have sync enabled at both ends, and have tried signing out and signing back in, removing and then re-adding the iOS device, and disabling and re-enabling sync, but nothing has worked.

I see this same problem has been logged many times here before but all those threads appear to have been archived without a solution being offered.

Long-time Firefox user. Sync works fine everywhere else. First time attempting sync with Firefox on iOS.

Desktop: Windows: 11, Firefox: 119.0 (64-bit) 2FA enabled with Authenticator code

iPhone 15: iOS 17.1, Firefox: latest version

I log in successfully to Gmail with username and password. Using the same username and password to connect with Firefox Sync, I get "Incorrect password".

I don't know if syncing's the problem. My business email is locked. I haven't been able to use it and it is critical that I have this working. Can I chat with someone?

I just installed (and reinstalled) Firefox on my iPhone 12 Mini, in the hopes that I could sync bookmarks, etc., that I have set up on my notebook's Firefox browser. I have gone through all the steps (twice) and it still will not migrate my bookmarks to the ios version. My account shows that Firefox is active on both devices. What am I missing? John

Hi, there is no import data button on general settings on ipad pro menu. How can i import passwords, bookmarks and history from brave/opera/duckduckgo/chrome/edge on ipad pro to firefox? How can i download history, passwords and bookmarks files for backing up firefox on ipad pro Thanks a lot

I would like to recover my tabs, I tried the going into setting and going to that other website but that did not work for me and I do not know what to do anymore, the tabs are not on my history anymore like they did not exist. And it's acting on my computer like it was never a synced device so I have absolutely nothing of anything I had on my phone it is all gone and can not find anything I did on my phone on my synced laptop.

Hi My firefox on 2 macbooks, Ipad and Iphone are all signed in and sync is on but the passwords etc don't sync. In fact, if I make any new account on one device, despite repeated syncing attempts, the passwords NEVER sync.

My Firefox on my iPad alsways crashes when I try to select a synched tabs from another Firefox on a different device. The tabs from the other devices show up and the sync is always up to date, but the windows does not react on any interaction, instead the Browser crashes after about 1 minute of inresponsiveness and returns to the home screen of my iPad. I already discenneted and reconnected the Firefox account used for sync on this browser, it did not help. I use the same Firefox version on my iPhone and that does not have this issues, selecting tabs from other devices works as intended.

Firefox version: 114.3 (31916) iPad OS: 16.5.1 (did not work in iPadOS 16.5. either)

I’m trying to transfer my iPhone Firefox tabs (All 100+ of them) to my Mac laptop Firefox. I have already signed in before and I would really like some other way to transfer tabs than to tediously click every tab from the Firefox account drop down menu. The Firefox help page for setting up sync don’t help since I still need to click every one of those tabs from the drop down menu. If there is something I’m missing about the process can someone please explain it to me, and it would be greatly appreciated if someone to help me find a way to transfer my tabs all at once.

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.

Hi,

I have Firefox on my desktop, laptop and iPhone. The only device on which I do not have access to my usernames and passwords to login into my online accounts is on my iPhone. And yes I have set it up correctly with the QR code etc... By reading all the messages from other users, I'd like to know if I need to ditch Firefox for good and go back to chrome. Or will someone fro Firefox come up with the fix for that glitch. Waiting for a couple days. After that, Firefox will be history for me. And oh yes, I will talk about this every chance I get while on TV.

I will call this syncing actually it is not. I have lockwise on my iphone. I AM SIGNED INTO my mozilla firefox account on my laptop. I discovered my lockwise passwords were no longer on my ios device. Trying to sign into my firefox lockwise account and it tells me password invalid, laptop signed in? What i need is to get my firefox passwords back to my lockwise firefox account to import them to another password manager. can you help please.
