Update Bookmarks on the go with new firefox sync features

My bookmarks-on-the-go will not update or sync with Firefox 29. The new firefox sync features has eliminated the pairing option or the resetting of the bookmarks using the reset / recovery key.
Any solution how to maintained syn with my iphone and firefox on my mac?

Try to contact the seller of that app about an update.

Privacy reduced with new Firefox Sync?

The old Firefox Sync (before Firefox 29.0) came with end-to-end encryption. This technical limitation prevented Mozilla from reading the contents of users' browsing history and passwords.
If I understand correctly, the new Firefox Sync stores the encryption keys on their own servers (instead of the users' browser). Does this mean that Mozilla is now required to pass on this private information to police, NSA, and other government agencies when required, and is susceptible to mass data breaches from bad actors?
If true, are there any alternatives to the new Firefox Sync (short of hosting my own Sync service) that continue to use end-to-end encryption?

Brian Warner's blog post seems to address the question: "Sync will still provide end-to-end encryption, but accessed by a password instead of pairing."
https://blog.mozilla.org/warner/2014/04/02/pairing-problems/
The first comment on that blog post mentions the new password method is one-factor authentication rather than two-factor authentication of the original "pair devices" method.

Everything lost with new firefox sync

I formated my PC, installed the new Firefox and, when I tried to sync, i found out I need to create a new account to the new Firefox sync. As I can't access my old account I have lost everything!
I used my old email and password to this new sync but of course it didn't work as it is a new account.
So, how can a I recover my old account's data? Mozilla can't do a new service without migrating your data from the old one right?

Why does the new firefox sync not sync my bookmarks on my Iphone? The history and tabs show up, but bookmarks do not.

Ever since I updated to the new Firefox sync my bookmarks have stopped showing up on my iphone Sync for Firefox. I even downloaded the Apollo browser, but bookmarks still are not showing. Can someone help?

Firefox 29 has a new version of Sync, so whatever you're using on the iPhone for Sync will need to be updated to be compatible with the new Sync.

My company software has some incompatibility with newer Firefox versions. They require me to downgrade to version 8. Where can I find the installer for v8?

I had synced all my infos (passwords etc.) in my old laptop but today, when I linked my new laptop with my firefox sync account, I didn't find my saved infos.

Before I came to my new place, I had saved all my info like passwords, bookmarks etc. in my old laptop and synced them with my Firefox sync account. But, after I came to my new place, I bought a new laptop. But when I signed in my Firefox sync account in my new laptop, I didn't find all those bookmarks or saved passwords. What do I do?

Yes, I would say that your passwords are gone. When the Sync Key is "updated" as indicated in that part of the sync-log that I cropped, the server is wiped of the users data because that data is useless. That Sync key is the encryption key for the users data when that data is off the user's devices which are connected to Firefox Sync. No one except for the person with the correct Sync Key (the "owner" of that Sync account) can use that data as the data is scrambled.
I am curious about the full text of the last two sync-log files, 11kb and 38kb is a lot more data than usual for a sync-log. On my 3 separate Sync accounts I usually see sync-log files of 3kb to 8 kb when there is an error-. Problem is that this forum software doesn't provide for file uploads, and doing a copy&paste of that data into the Reply Box doesn't preserve the line formatting - making it very difficult to read and follow the sequence of events.
Sorry we didn't have a successful conclusion.

How can I restore my bookmarks with old Firefox Sync?

I have key sync and password from old Firefox Sync. And I want to restore my bookmarks.
Three years ago I use Firefox sync, but since i don,t use it.

You need to connect to Sync using a pre-Firefox 29 version to restore a connection to the Sync server and try to recover your data. Then follow the instructions to update your Sync account for Firefox 29. See this KB article - [[How to update to the new Firefox Sync]]
Firefox 29+ uses a hidden Recovery Key and no way to enter the old "Key".
Three years of inactivity? Your data may not be there, Sync wasn't intended to be a data storage cloud. It was created to keep multiple Firefox installations synchronized.

Is there a problem with new Firefox and Gmail?

I cannot get Gmail to work consistently with new Firefox. sometimes it loads, sometimes it lets me enter my password details and then crashes; sometimes I can view my inboxes up until I select a message and then it crashes... I've submitted several crash reports already but not heard anything back as yet.

Thanks for replying. Only trouble is that the machines I'm having problems with already run the most up to date versions. In fact, by pure fluke, my wife's laptop which has automatic updates switched off is running FF 8.0.1 and this is the only way I can consistently access Gmail without crashing.
It runs XP if this information is useful.

Apps are always tied to the ID that was used to purchase them originally. Did you try entering your old password and see if that works?
If you need to sign out of your old account go to Settings>Store>Tap on your ID and sign out. Sign in with the new one.
you can also access your ID in the featured tab of the App Store. Swipe to the bottom of the screen and you will find it there as well.

Why is apple releasing the ipad4 witha new and inproved wifi attena without addressing the wifi issue in the ipad3

Jim Level 5 person ....I am very happy for you that your usage will not be affected, please accept my congratulations.
Now I have to point out that going ballistic has certain connotations but posting on an internet forum is not one of them.
I appear to be one of thousands who are all expressing their outrage in a rational and intelligent manner which cannot be said for your lebvel 4 + collegues on this forum.
Finally there has been an ongoing issue wiith the iPad 3 Wifi on certain wifi only models , I have not encountered it and it seems clear neither have you. That of course does not discount the fact that many others have experienced this issue , an issue which may reveal itself to you or I in the future particularly as I have only been using mine for a fortnight.

Where do I download the newest beta of Firefox Sync?

My PC at home is running the latest beta of the extension on FF 3.6. My work PC however is running the latest stable build and is thus incombatible with the newest beta. When I tell FF on my work PC to check for extension updates, it doesn't find the newest beta for Firefox Sync. Is there a page where I can directly install it from?

The latest beta version is 1.5 beta 6, this is available from https://mozillalabs.com/sync/
You need to use the Experimental version link underneath the large "Download Sync for Firefox now!" link.

New firefox sync does not send verification email. I'm locked out.

Once I installed the FirefoxDeveloperEdition, I tried to sync my datas, but noticed it didn't work.
I dug a little and found there is a brand new Firefox Sync (maybe trying an old Firefox Sync account could notify the user it cannot add any new device).
So I followed the support article in order to migrate and disabled my old Firefox Sync first. Then I tried to register a new account, and I'm stuck at the email verification step. I click on the “send verification email” but I don't receive anything.
Now I cannot sync anything for two days, and can't figure what's wrong. I use the same email as this “mozilla support account”. I forgot my password so I did request for a password modification and received the email. Everything seems to work so far. Except for Firefox Sync.
Did I miss something ?

Hi CoryMH and loranger,
If I read that currently you have reset your password and have successfully reset the password of the old sync, however there is no evidence of the new account syncing in the FirefoxDeveloperEdition because the verification email is never sent.
So I tested this with an account I know that already exists and it did not detect the account right away:
I submitted the bug:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1097781
But please try to remove the account from the Developer's edition and add it one more time and go to about:accounts.
Does it sync on the second try without the verification email?

I can't open bookmarks from the menu in new tab on firefox 6.0 using the mouse middle button or right click. Is this normal?

I can't open my bookmarks from the menu in a new tab.
I'm wondering if this is simply not a feature and requires an add-on. I'd rather not need to use an add-on.
can anybody help?

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you.
