Sync dont works when i restart firefox

Whenever i restart firefox the sync stops working and i have to again setup sync

Hi!
The most probable issue is that you are resetting your password after closing the browser. We have discussed this issue in this other thread: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/823376
Let me know if that helps.
Regarding your suggestion, the team is aware of the demand of viewing what's on the cloud and it's planning some improvements in that area.

  • Firefox sync activation dissappears when I restart firefox

    I'm attempting to set up Firefox Sync on two Fedora Linux desktops to sync bookmarks between the two machines. I am able to set up Sync on the first machine just fine, and I am able to add a device on the first machine to include the second machine. (I'm syncing with the firefox sync server, not with a custom server.) However, whenever I quit and restart firefox (on either machine), the sync "activation" or "connection" dissappears: In particular, after a restart, when I select "Edit": "Preferences": "Sync" I see the initial activation screen (i.e., the screen with s single button, "Set Up Firefox Sync".
    I am able to reconnect to the Sync account, so the account on the Firefox Sync server persists. Apparently, the executable "firefox" on my machine is not maintaining the connection information over a restart.
    Also, a suggestion: I would like to be able to browse the sync info on the Firefox sync account separately from the sync connection. This would help me debug connection problems, would enable me to deconflict, correct, or understand erroneous or ambiguous sync's after the fact (if historical log information were provided), and would in general make me feel better about how sync works. In short, I want to be able to see exactly what's in the cloud by viewing the cloud.

  • I am able to change and add bookmarks, but these changes are sometimes not saved when I restart Firefox.

    Since updating to Firefox 4, changes to bookmarks are saved sometimes after restart, but not usually (maybe 25% of the time). The problem sounds exactly like what is described on the [[Bookmarks not saved]] help page, yet after making all the recommended changes, the problem persists. I have also performed the recommended actions on the [[Toolbar keeps resetting]] help page, with no luck there either.
    The only other thing that I can think of that may be helpful is that I use Firefox Sync between two computers, and both seem to be having this problem.

    I have some more information, in case it helps. During one Firefox session, I made about 8 changes to my bookmarks.When I restarted Firefox, the first few changes I had made were saved, but the rest were not. Additionally, the favicons that were present during my last session (that I hadn't had before that session) were reverted to the default favicon. I hope this helps!

  • Wireless sync only works when I unlock phone. Is there a way to tell itunes my phones unlock code?

    Wireless sync only works when I unlock phone. Is there a way to tell itunes my phones unlock code? Itunes tries to sync all night and posts 50 unknown errors. I unlock the phone and it syncs. I dont want my phone sitting around without a lock code but with wireless sync I cant find a place to tell itunes my code so it can sync? Any help is appreciated... Ray O

    I have the same problem. I am forced to have a PIN set on my devices because I use my corporate exchange email and sync over wi-fi initially fails until I manually unlock the phone/ipad.  #ckuan needs to read the words wiritten.  We know how it's supposed to work but it won't start until you enter the PIN. Until then I get error messages saying either it cannot find the phone or explicitly telling me I need to unlock it.

  • When I restart Firefox, instead of restarting, it simply quits.

    I am running Firefox 5.0.1 on Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6.8).
    When I restart firefox (for example, in the add-ons manager or through the "Restart Firefox with Add-ons Disabled" link, it does not restart. Instead, it simply quits. The only time that it successfully restarts is when I am in safe mode.

    Strange, since Google is unlikely to do that. Maybe it was an bundled installer masquerading as the official one?
    To start your clean-up efforts, please check your home page setting. Do you get the 3 tabs when you press Command+n to launch a new window? If so, the extra URLs may be tacked on to your home page setting in the Preferences dialog. These articles describe where to find that. Note that it can be difficult to see the full details of that field due to limited space available, so often it is easier to delete it all and paste in just the URL you want.
    * [[Startup, home page and download settings]]
    * [[How to set the home page]]
    Next, please check your extensions, as they can override your settings. I suggest disabling ALL nonessential or unrecognized extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
    * Command+Shift+a
    * Tools menu > Add-ons
    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable. (Or if obviously bad, remove.)
    Usually a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
    Any improvement?

  • I noticed when I restart Firefox 4, it opens my previous tabs even I set the option "Open a blank page" and it opens blank page when I have "Show my windows and tabs from last time". Please ignore my question if you're already aware of this issue. Thanks.

    Your previous tabs will not re-open or be available to re-open when starting Firefox if:

    When I restart Firefox, my pinned tabs open to the last webpage that I viewed rather than the page that I originally pinned. For example, if I pinned to a local newspaper's website, navigate to espn while on the pinned tab and then close Firefox, the next time I open Firefox, the pinned tab goes to espn rather than the local newspaper's site.
    Additionally, the same thing happens if I am reading an article on the pinned tab. When reopening Firefox, the pinned tab goes to the last article viewed.

    Hi don.w,
    That is just the way that pinned tabs are designed. They are meant to be left on the page you want them left on e.g. a web mail account.
    If you want to pin a newspaper then I would pin the front page and then open any article you want to read in a new tab.
    Having said that there is an addon called [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tab-utilities/ Tab-utilities] which contains an option to automatically revert a pinned tab to the original URL.
    I hope that helps.

  • Which buttons dont work when you run windows xp

    the keyboard for a mac and a pc are kinda different. are there ne buttons that dont work when you run xp with bootcamp?

    Only one I can think of (if you're using the latest version of Boot Camp) is the "delete" key won't act as "delete" (such as in ctrl + alt + delete) under Windows. Other than that, every other key should function correctly. (The Apple/CMD key will work as the "Windows key." And the "option" key will be "alt."

    Welcome to the 'wonderful' world of HTML5 e-learning.
    In my view, from the issues I am seeing everywhere, HTML5 output from rapid e-learning tools such as Captivate is not ready for the kind of mobile device e-learning you want to develop.
    Sorry to be pessimistic, but you may need to consider going back to the drawing board and coding it from the ground up.

    On the command line:

    2. For the "left-arrow-key-not-working" issue, you may want to try this:
