What I am tryihng to do is see if I can save a picturee to my PC in a file. Then take that picturte or file and send it to my phone which is synced to my PC with Firefox, WIFi and whatever else it needs. I want to move a picture to my phone so I can send it to a friend in a text message. Is that possible to do?

Hi rylayne49, Firefox's Sync feature mostly copies browser data and settings; I don't think it can copy whole files, even if those files were downloaded through Firefox.

Could I suggest using cloud storage to make the picture easier to access? That could be Google Drive or Microsoft OneDrive or another site of your choosing. If the image is highly personal, then perhaps that wouldn't be the best choice...
