mobile bookmarks not showing up on desktop, cannot sync bookmarks from mobile
The mobile bookmarks folder is nowhere to be found on the desktop app. When I bookmark a page on mobile, Firefox desktop doesn't show it in the "all bookmarks" menu, I tried searching but it doesn't find it. The mobile app doesn't show it either, it only shows the "desktop bookmarks" folder and the single pages that I have bookmarked on mobile. I have attached some screenshots that better explain this issue. I would be grateful if someone could help me.

Okay I figured it out. For some obscure reason I had been getting the error message "you must log in to this network before you can access the internet", so I fixed it in about:config and now it syncs correctly. I don't know why it worked but I'm glad it did. Thanks

You can open about:sync-log via the location bar to see whether a recent Sync log is available. If you can't post the content of the file in a reply then you can upload the file to a website like Pastebin and post the link in a reply.

There is a problem with logging in. It looks that there are network problems.

Are you using a direct connection (i.e. not a proxy or VPN) ?
Also make sure that your security software isn't causing problems.
