Lubuntu 13.10: Firefox Sync - Account set up doesn't do anything

Hello,
I've tried to set up a Firefox Sync Account, however, after filling in the formula and clicking on the Button to Finish the process the only thing it does is closing itself (the Browser itself stays open).
Any tips are appreciated.
Kind regards,
Morvarid

I've deactivated my add-ons and now it seems to work :)

  • Firefox sync account set up trouble with robot page

    I am trying to set up a sync account but when it asks to type in the text in the Are you a Robot page - the cursor doesnt work and wont allow me to type in the my firefox sync key.

    HI Ibai thanks for the suggestion but it hasnt helped. I think the problem started with me using a Zotero stand alone and linking it with the webbased program. I have tried to delete everything to start fresh but that doesnt seem to work either - so I am stuck the sync button on Zotero (lower screen has an alarm ! and wont sync) and when I try to create a sync account in the web space screen above (probably not the right language) I get to the robot page and it wont let me type anything.
    I dont know how to proceed -
    cheers

  • When setting up a Firefox Sync account I was never asked a secret phrase. When I try to use Firefox Home it asks for the secret phrase. What do I do? (using Firefox 3.6.10, iphone 4 and macbook OS X

    When setting up a Firefox Sync account I was never asked a secret phrase. When I try to use Firefox Home it asks for the secret phrase. What do I do? (using Firefox 3.6.10, iphone 4 and macbook OS X

    On the MacBook, open up the Preferences dialog and go to the Sync panel. Click the Manage Account button so it shows more options, then click on the My Sync Key link to show you the Sync Key.
    The sync key is the same as the secret phrase, it was renamed in recent versions of Firefox Sync.

  • I deleted my Firefox Sync account at one point, but would like to create a new one using the same email address. Is this possible?

    I had a Firefox Sync account a while back on an email address and then I deleted it. Now I want to use Firefox Sync again. I had forgotten that I deleted my account, but after trying to send password reset emails to that address and failing to receive them I can only conclude that the email is still on record in Firefox Sync, even if the account has been deleted.
    Is it possible for me to set up a new account using this email address? Trying to set it up through Firefox tells me that the email address is in use, when from my point of view it is not.

    Strangely enough, sending the email from account.services.mozilla.com did the trick this time! Thanks.

  • I can't sign into my old Firefox Sync account.

    I have an old firefox sync account from the same computer, but I had to re-install firefox clean and my account is no longer on my firefox, how do I log back on my old firefox sync account.

    Go to | Tools > Set Up Sync > Connect > I don't have this device with me | Enter your credentials and select the option "I have lost this device" to get a new sync key and re-sync with the server.

  • Cannot use my old firefox sync account after reinstalling

    After reinstalling firefox I can no longer use my old Firefox Sync account. I am told that there is no such account here https://accounts.firefox.com and I created a new account, with the same e-mail as my old account.
    After some research I was able to find this https://account.services.mozilla.com/ in which I can login with my old account.
    My problem now is that I want to retrieve the information that I had in my old sync and I can't find any way to do it.
    Also, because I was experiencing severe performance problems using firefox, I deleted some folders in my machine related to Firefox (after uninstalling) including what seemed to be the profile location for firefox.
    What is really important for me is: How do I retrieve my old Firefox Sync account data or synchronize it with the new Mozilla account?
    Thanks,

    hello, firefox 29 and upwards is using a different sync system which isn't compatible with accounts set-up in older versions.
    in this case you'd probably have to use a workaround and download the prior firefox 28 version, disable automatic updating for the moment (in options > advanced > update), link it to the old sync account (with username, password & recovery key) and upgrade after you have successfully restored your data this way...

  • How do I enter multiple email addresses for a Firefox Sync account?

    How do I enter my multiple email addresses for one Firefox Sync account?

    Sorry, but Address Book does not allow you to select more than one email address to send to in a group. There's really no reason why people need multiple copies of a message, anyway; they have the option of forwarding email to another email address of theirs.

  • Cannot generate a Key. Manage Account menu doesn't show up even after following Help articles. Correct username, e-mail and password. I already have a Firefox Sync Account but cannot Add a Device. No way to Sync due to no Key.

    I cannot generate a Key to Sync between two computers. Manage Account menu doesn't show under Options > Sync > Firefox Sync Setup > I already have a Firefox Sync Account > I don't have the Device with me. No Sync Key no matter how hard I tried.

    Yes I did. '''''I solved this issue last night.''''' First I had to Clear My Sync Data, then Yes I Already Have a Sync Account [enter User, Password] and only then the Key appeared in its proper field. Went to the 2nd computer and wrote down the Key after I Already Have a Sync Account. The bottleneck was to enter into Mozilla server after resetting pass and user, and then, clear data.

  • Impossible to create a Firefox Sync account - captcha is "parked domain"

    Hi,
    I'm trying to create a Firefox Sync account, and cannot find a way to display the captcha part of the registration process. The area is empty when I don't use my company's proxy, and if I use it, I see that the missing part is an iframe from http://www.misc.com/1.0/captcha.html, which is a parked domain for sale ...
    Here are some screenshots of what I see :

  • What if I have 2 firefox sync accounts?

    What if I have 2 separate firefox sync accounts from different computers? If I log out of one and try to log on the other on the same computer, it says it will merge the 2. How does that work?

    Hi mmqb817,
    This means that the profile that you are attaching to the second account will be merged with the profile that you are logging into. If you wish to maintain two different accounts, to avoid this, you may need to create a new profile.
    All the selected synced parts of the profile (ie. passwords, bookmarks) will be merged in the cloud then sync down to the newly attached profile.

  • Error during firefox sync account creation, do I need to make a new email now?

    So I tried to make a firefox sync account years ago when it was first made, but I messed something up and never got the email confirmation to finish creating the account. I said "Forget this!" and went to do something else.
    Yesterday I wanted to sync my desktop firefox with my new laptop, and tried to make a firefox sync account. I used my new primary email address, entered the account information and captcha in, and started the creation. The verification stage was taking a very long time, so I thought I had entered the captcha incorrectly, so I tried entering the captcha again.
    That caused the verification to fail, and now I have another email address in firefox sync limbo. Is there anything I can do? I'm running out of email addresses! :\

    hello, you could try if a reset email is sent to your account when you use https://account.services.mozilla.com/forgot
