I have 3 devices connected to Mozilla account, 2 smartphones and 1 PC and NONE of them are syncing properly, bookmarks sync perfectly and everything else fails miserably. Some part of history does sync but nowhere near the full history. Syncing of open tabs is *completely* broken.

I've installed FF on new computers a few times in the past year and I've noticed that it never syncs the Search settings (things like default search engine, adding StartPage, etc.). Is that by design? Is there a way to make them sync?

Hi,
I've labelled this thread as (dec 2025) as there is a lot of issues dating back to years ago so this is mark it down just as a fresh review of the issue.
The only thing I'm looking from a browser is to sync Passwords between Phone and Desktop and for whatever reason Firefox is not doing it. Absolutley nothing gets synced even though both windows 10 and Android browsers have been sync manually with all of the options to be synced.
I've followed all the others people checks of settings, account login etc. and I'm just giving up for now.

I had to have my laptop serviced. When it came back, I downloaded Firefox and logged into my account. Usually, all bookmarks and passwords would load back up, since they were bound to my account. Unfortunately, this time after had synchronization finished, none of my data was present. It's as if my whole account was wiped. The only thing I did was change my password. How can I restore everything?

I have about a dozen computers synced to Firefox. The Bookmarks go nuts when an older seldom used machine powers up. I spend days cleaning out my bookmarks only to have old ones come roaring back. I have began manually backing my bookmarks up to a hard drive. Firefox has failed me. I wish to delete all, or some of the backed up bookmark files.
How do I do that!!! I've spent hours over weeks online trying to stop this madness. Can I wipe out all the files by deleting any of the three "places.sqlite files? Is there a way to selectively kill the very large files that keep coming back and keep the other recent backups?
Does someone sell a pay to play bookmark manager similar to Foxmarks / xmarks?
Thanks for your help Lee
I was logged out of my account for some reason. Now all of my history, bookmarks, passwords, etc are all missing. They do appear on the mobile app though.

The subject says it all. The "tabs from other devices" are a) Shown as a long flat list of links, not in their individual tabs, which is disappointing b) right click does nothing - doesn't open them as advertised
