I switched from Windows to Mac OS, I downloaded Firefox for OS, and I pinned some tabs, and configure the restore previous session, but every time a open firefox, the only tab I get is the default page. no pinned tabs, nothing. I try to sync, but nothing seems to help

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode (Never remember history).

  • Firefox > Preferences > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history"
  • Deselect: [ ] "Always use Private Browsing mode"

Also make sure to close Firefox (Firefox > Quit) when the window with the pinned tabs is still open.
