If I update to new Firefox Synch, will I loose data in Firefox for Android?

My laptop was recently stolen, it had Firefox with the old version of Synch. I still have my Android with Firefox and Synch set up. On my new laptop, I am not able to synch my bookmarks and data because it has the new version of Firefox Synch. If I go through the process of disconnecting Synch accounts and re-synching my data between browsers as directed in support solutions, will I loose the data that is still in my Firefox for Android? How can I recover my data from the old Synch account so that my Firefox data is restored on my new laptop?

Sync accounts do not affect your profile data. You can safely switch between the two of them. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-to-update-to-the-new-firefox-sync
</blockquote>
The instructions that you refer to say "in order to create a Firefox account and sign in to the new Sync you'll have to unlink all of your current devices from the old version of Sync." If I set it up with the same email address as before, will it maintain the original data (bookmarks, etc) and Synch all of that on all the devices?

How can I sync bookmarks between my opera mobile browser and my new Firefox for android browser ?

I just installed Firefox on my Android, and wondered if there was sone way that I could sync my existing Opera mobile bookmarks to it so I don't have to go thru and add them manually ?

I suspect you need to sync Opera Mobile to a desktop PC, then export/import to get into Firefox. The reason I suspect this is the enhanced security and limited features on mobile browsers .
Opera's Sync solution: http://www.opera.com/link/

Firefox for Android 29 and Beta 29 loss all tabs after close.

I recently. Upgraded to the new Firefox for android and all of my tabs disappeared which was unexpected, but alright. What is not alright though is that after I fixed the tabs I wanted they disappeared again when I closed the browser. I have it set to restore tabs, but it only does so 1 or 2 times out of 10 and never when I restart my phone. How can I fix this? It's just plain annoying! I never had this issue with 28!

Hi Kelcy R. Lemme
Just tested this on my Galaxy S5 and tabs are restored properly for me if you set: Firefox Menu -> Settings -> Customize -> Tabs to 'Always restore'
Please let us know
1. Your model number and brand of your phone or tablet (e.g. Galaxy S4, HTC One, etc)
2. You Android Operating System Version e.g. kitkat 4.4, jellybean 4.3, etc
3. What add-ons (Firefox Menu -> Tools -> Add-ons) if you any you have installed and if you tried uninstalling those add-ons.
3. What you did, what you expected and what happened
Cheers!

Just updated to new Firefox - now when clicking on a website to visit the color of the print no longer changes to indicate that I have visited that site already. How can I get that feature again?

Since updating to new firefox I have lost a very helpful tool. Before, when I clicked on a website to visit, the color of the print would change from blue to purple to indicate that I had visited that site. Now it does not do that so it is difficult to keep track of what sites I have visited and what sites I haven't when looking down the list of possible sites to visit.

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode.
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Private+Browsing
*You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
*To see all History and Cookie settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting <b>Firefox will: Use custom settings for history</b>
* Deselect: [ ] "Permanent Private Browsing mode"
Make sure that the History is enabled:

Possibly, it meets all the minimum specifications. Does the device have the Android market?
If not you can get Firefox manually at http://bit.ly/fennecftp Note there is no updater in this build so to stay safe and get the performance improvements you will need to check the link for new releases (every 6 weeks).

Firefox for android freezes immetiately after start since update to Android 4.2.2

Firefox for android freezes/crashes immediately after start since the automatic update to Android 4.2.2 on my Samsung Galaxy S2 Plus; sometimes it reports a crash without being started. Language is German; I've send several automatic crash reports; all available updates are installed. Other apps (google+, skype, TrustGo, Polaris Office 4 ...) started to crash as well after this android update. Please help or update Firefox.

hello emuller, you might have to clear the data & cache of the affected applications for them to work correctly on the new os version (this will reset firefox to the state after a fresh install).

Do the update using iTunes on the Computer you usually Sync and Backup to.

Apple does not take trade-ins. You'll have to look for a dealer that does, though you'll probably get more for the iPad 1 if you sell it yourself.

I just installed the new firefox for Mac OSX 10.6.8 and when I select an image on a site (right click and copy) and paste in Photoshop 5.5, the image lightens. It does not do this in Safari.

Firefox, Safari, and PhotoShop each handle embedded color profiles differently. For an add-on that makes it easier to experiment with Firefox's color management options, you might be interested in: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/color-management/ Color Management :: Add-ons for Firefox]. I haven't tried it myself.

What is the latest version and updates available of Firefox for Mac system 10.3.9? Can you provide a link of this for downloading.

What is the latest version and updates available of Firefox for Mac system 10.3.9? Can you provide a link of this for downloading. I am currently using Firefox 2.0.0.20 but need to upgrade to use Bell.net email.
== URL of affected sites ==
http://

Firefox 2.0.0.20 is the last version that works on OS X 10.3.9
You may want to consider using another browser if 2.0.0.20 does not work for your email. You could try using Safari for your email. If that does not work or prefer an alternative, a couple of options are [http://www.icab.de/dl.php iCab 4.8] or [http://www.opera.com/download/?os=mac&ver=9.64&local=y Opera 9.64] (Opera 10 does not work on OS X 10.3.9)

HT4014 when you update to 10.6.3 will you loose your files and pictures?

when you update to 10.6.3 will you loose your files and pictures?

No.   But you probably need to go further than 10.6.3.   If you have already bought the retail disc you should read the link below (just to double check).
Minimum specs for Snow Leopard.        Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard -Read the Technical Specifications
Once you have bought and upgraded you will need to apply the Combo updater for Snow Leopard.          Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1
And follow that by software update to pick up any iTunes or security updates that have since become available.

Yes.
Restore your iTunes library from your computer's backup along with all other important data that should be included with your computer's backup such as your documents, photos, etc.
Important to maitain a backup with any computer platfirm but event more so with Windows due to being very insecure and unreliable,

Firefox for Android will not play mp3

Hi! Why does Firefox for Android will not play mp3? For example the tracks on this page do not play http://audiobook-online.com/?page_id=33 . Firefox for windows plays mp3.
Alexander

Hello,
I've just tested and the mp3s on that page work fine for me. When I first visited the site I see a prompt at the top of the screen: "This page contains plugin content. Would you like to enable plugins".
I clicked Activate and the audio played fine.
If the pop-up doesn't appear then you can try enabling plugins across all pages. See here:
[[How do I watch Flash videos with Firefox for Android?|Play Flash Content Without Tapping]]
But be aware that there are security implications with this option. It is safer to keep flash as tap-to-play. There is more information on this in the article.
I hope that helps.

After being hassled just about to death, I downloaded the new Firefox for Macs (3.6.13). Now I cannot download anything. Not a thing.

After being hassled just about to death, I downloaded the new Firefox for Macs (3.6.13). Now I cannot download anything. Not a thing. The help files suggested resetting the download folder (didn't work), clearing the download menu (didn't work as there was nothing to clear)

Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac. There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox
If you prefer, you can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
Mozilla are working to prevent Mac users with non-compatible systems from getting the notification about Firefox 4, and also not displaying the "Download Firefox 4" button on http://www.mozilla.com
