I try to sync my tab in the firefox account but it doesn't work. I can't see any tab in my browser on my mac and viceversa.

Both (mobile and desktop) apps are updated at the last version. I follow all the details of the support but nothing is working.

Any idea how to solve it?

Hi

I understand that Firefox Sync did not connect to your mobile device on this occasion, but hopefully I should be able to help you force a Sync event to take place.

Assuming you have connected the same Sync account on both your mobile and desktop copies of Firefox:

In Firefox on your mobile device:

  1. Go into the Settings menu and select Firefox Sync
  2. Tap on Synchronise now

This will “force” a synchronisation of the data that is on the local device storage.

Hello Seburo, thanks for your suggestions but I'm not able to sync yet.

I had already tried to force sync both in the desktop and in the mobile, but nothing worked. I tried to sync again right now but I'm not so lucky.

I used the same account to avoid any problem. Take a look on my screenshots https://goo.gl/photos/n9Bi6Nh5xbq5HD4M6. I hope you can help me to fix it!

I really don't know what I can do! Thank you
