I recently got new samsung tablet s6 . I am logged into successfully to synchronize and see my bookmarks. Problem is I can't save new bookmarks on tablet. I found article about write protected file but those directions are not available on the tablet/android version of Firefox.

Less important 2nd question is...should the collections from my phone and pc show up on tablet? I do not see them. Would so much like to see them

Hi

What happens when you try to save a bookmark?

Collections are not a feature of Firefox on desktop computers and cannot be synced to other devices with Firefox Sync.

For bookmarks I select to bookmark as normal....folders come up as normal, then I never get the checkmark in right hand corner to save it to destination ...my 5 year old android note 9 now has the same problem....no checkmark to save bookmark...

As far as collections forget about them....least important.....but I used bookmarks all the time
