Sync not working between my Laptop and Android.

I just got a new Android phone and downloaded Firefox to it. I set up a sync account on my laptop and so I could sync my tabs and stuff to my Android phone. It worked at first and I could find my tabs and history and stuff. Now when I try to re-sync my Android and Laptop, so I can see the new Tabs I have opened up, it wont sync, and still shows the old tabs from one of the first times I sync'ed my phone. It just will not re-sync and show the tabs that I have currently open in my Firefox browser on my Laptop. Any help or answers would be great.

I uninstalled Firefox off of my phone and then reinstalled it on it. While I was doing that, I logged off of sync on my laptop and then reinstalled Firefox onto my android. I logged in on both my laptop and phone into my sync account and made sure that was all set. Now whenever I want to sync my tabs on my laptop, I click the 3 horizontal bars in the top right corner, and go down and click Sync. Then on my phone, I open the Firefox app and click the little square where i can cycle between tabs and I click on the circular arrows. If you swipe your finger down it should start the circualr arrows spinning causing it to load and refresh. If that doesnt work, then try this:
click the home button
go to settings
go to accounts (under the user and backup tab in my Galaxy S5)
go to Firefox
click the 3 vertical dots in the top right corner and press sync all or, press on where it has your email, which should also be your sync account name
click the 3 vertical dots in the top right corner and press sync now
then you should be able to go into Firefox and click onto where you would cycle between tabs and press onto the circular arrows and see if anything has changed. Hopefully this works for you.

  • Sync not working between Window laptop with FF32 and android tablet with FF 32

    Computer is Windows 7
    Labtop is android
    Both devices have FF 32
    As far as I know, sync has been set up correctly on both devices. But they still aren't syncing. It looks as though I've missed a setting somewhere. I tried to follow instructions from an earlier version, but the menu was different and I couldn't find the counterparts for this version. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Hi gohim2j,
    Thank you for your question, I understand that there are two devices attached to your sync account that do not appear as they are syncing. Please try the following steps to kick start the sync:
    # Make a copy of the profile folder for a back up of the current data.
    # Remove the account from each of the devices, (on the desktop from the "3 bar" menu select "Options" and click on sync. Next to the email, remove account. On the mobile device, go to accounts and select Firefox, tap on the account name and select "Remove account")
    # On the desktop, go to accounts.firefox.com and sign into the account. When you reach the notification "Sync will begin momentarily" close Firefox. Open Firefox and select the Tools menu and click "Sync Now"
    # On the mobile device, re-add the account. Go to the same url accounts.firefox.com and sign into your sync account. Once it has been added, go to the sync menu with the list of check boxes are to select what to sync. Are there any notifications there? Sometimes there will be a warning asking to toggle Auto-sync. Once this is done from the Data menu of the Android device, the sync process will begin.
    # Wait for a bit, then go to the Desktop to check for the "Mobile Bookmarks" folder in the Bookmark's manager.
    Did it start to sync? If not it is possible to investigate any error in the sync logs. I can provide instructions on how to do this with your response.

  • Itunes is not working on my laptop and I need to back up my contacts on a 3Gs phone?

    Itunes is not working on my laptop and I need to back up my contacts on my 3Gs Iphone?

    Hello KP530,
    It sounds like you are unable to unlock your phone because you cannot use the screen, and you need to back up your phone. I recommend these steps from the article named:
    iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
    Connect the device to the computer with which you normally sync and open iTunes.
    Note: If iTunes asks you to enter the passcode, try another computer that you have synced with. Otherwise, go to "If you have never synced your device with iTunes, or you do not have access to a computer" section below.
    If the device is still disabled, or if iTunes does not automatically sync your device, sync the device with iTunes.
    When the backup and sync is complete, restore your device.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

  • Icloud sync only works between mac pro and windows outlook, not with iphone and ipad anymore

    Hi
    Can anyone help me with my problem?
    I do have icloud installed on my MacBookPro, on my Windows Outlook computer, on my iPad 2 and on the iPhone 4S.
    Now until yesterday everything synchronized perfectly well.
    Then I created some groups on my MacBookPro address book and since then (I believe that was when it started) icloud no longer synchs from and to the ipad and the iphone. It still works between the Mac and Windows Outlook.
    On the iPad/iPhone I have tried everything but it still won't do. I have even reset the whole iPad and obviously lost all data and tried again. I all sometimes get is a few contacts back into the address book on the ipad. But only a limited number, not all.
    Also, to delete the icloud account on the ipad/iphone is sometimes not possible. It just hangs and I can see the message "Deleting..." for ever.
    Anyone an idea?
    Thanks in advance!

    One more comment. Wired connection seem to be stable neither. I have ping running to the Windows computer and after a couple of minutes, it gets broken.
    However if I have both WiFi and cable connection to the home router and disconnect from cable (after ping is broken), I get the network to the Windows comptuer back. Nothing serious on the network change, I just get 192.168.1.x instead of 192.168.1.y as IP).
    During this network switch I do nothing with the Windows computer.
    This is not valid if I want to connect to the Windows computer via Microsoft sharing (smb://192.168.1.x), then it immediately breaks the connection. Can't get it back until Windows is restarted.
    Getting lost...

  • Wifi Sync not working on iOS 6 and iTunes 10.7 with iPhone 4S

    I am running Windows 7 64-bit but WiFi Sync is not working on either my iPhone 4S or my wife's iPhone 4S.  Worked fine before upgrading.  All settings look correct in iTunes 10.7 and on our iPhones 4S's.  Already tried uninstalling iTunes and all associated Apple programs (Bonjour, Apple Mobile Device Support, Apple Application Support, etc) and reinstalling iTunes but no help.  Temporarily disabling Norton Firewall did not help.  If I hook up either of our two 4S phones via USB wire, they Sync and Backup fine.  Just WiFi Sync not working.  Can't initiate sync from iPhones because button is ghosted stating it is waiting for PC to be present.  Phones don't show up under Devices in iTunes unless hard-wired via USB cable.  Any suggestions?

    I am getting sync issues too (although on OSX) - seems like others are getting issues too:

  • Sync is not working between windows 7 and windows 8.1

    I have desktop windows7, laptop windows 7 and tablet windows 8.1.
    I installed later 2 last spring. At that time somehow, I managed to sync all 3 devices. (So, all had same bookmarks)
    Now sync works both windows 7 devices very well, but tablet windows 8.1 never sync anymore. Eventually bookmarks are rather different from other 2 devices.
    I tried to fix it, uninstalled / reinstalled firefox on tablet windows8.1, still it's not working.
    All 3 device have latest 37.0.1.
    Is there any way to sync all 3 devices?

  • Sync doesn't work between my mac and android

    Hi,
    I'm using FF 30 on both my mac and android. I had everything working fine on earlier versions of FF, but as I had to change my phone, I reinstalled FF, upgrading to FF30 in the process. Now I want to get my bookmarks etc back on the phone, so I set up an account on the android, connected to it, and connected to it with my mac as well. All the sync options seem to be checked correctly, I get no error message and both devices tell me I'm connected to my account. Still I can't get the bookmarks on the android. Can you please help me out ?
    Cheers

    If you open the Sync settings on desktop does the settings say "Pair a Device" below the account info? See attached screen shot.
    If so then unlink the device. Restart Firefox and then reconnect the desktop computer to Sync. If not reply and I'll follow up with the Android side.

  • AirDrop not working between MacBook Pro and iPad/iPhone 5

    AirDrop isn't working with new operating system between iOS devices and MacBook Pro. Not sure what to do now. There are no options below on my AirDrop that can select between older Macs and iOS devices

    First  change airdrop setting from contacts to anyone for testing.
    The default level is that contacts only. That means your iPhone contact app has to have the apple id that  your iPad currently use, to show the iPad in airdrop of the iPhone.
    If above is not your problem, try logout your iCloud account, in Settings-iCloud, then login again. Turn off your iOS devices and re-open it. This can fix problems potentially in iCloud account. My iPhone 5 has that potential problem in iCloud account which asks me many times a day to re-entery my apple id's password, which leads to contacts syncing, which affects airdrop's contact setting, I think.

  • Airplay not working between MLB app and Apple TV

    Hello
    I'm having Airplay problems, specifically between the MLB at bat app for 2012 and my AppleTV's with the most recent software update. Here's the details:
    -I'm using an ipod touch and and ipad, both with all updates
    -the two appletv's with the most recent software update don't receive the airplay from the mlb app, but...
    -an appletv that hasn't been updated (still has the text menus and not the 'tile' icons) works
    -all other streaming apps from either iOS device (pandora, radio, etc.) work with ALL the appletv's
    So, it's just the combination of the mlb app and the most up to date (software wise) appletv 2's
    Other potentially relevant info:
    -all three appletv's mentioned above are the black appletv 2 versions, but they are 2010 models, not the recently updated ones
    -I do have an older apple tv 1 (silver, hard drive), that has been hacked with the remote HD installation, and it doesn't work either...it worked fine with last years mlb app, but not this years...and it at least gives an error message saying that there's an 'error loading this content'
    -the appletv 2's that aren't working don't give any kind of error message, they just have the perpetually spinning gear icon
    -the iOS mlb app does give some indication that it isn't happy, but I can't remember the exact verbage...may be as simple as 'stopped', that is you keep hitting play, it trys to play, then displays 'stopped'...something like that
    -I'm hoping that whatever fixes the mlb stream to the appletv 2's will also magically fix the stream to the older apple tv 1, though I completely understand that that function isn't at all supported.
    thanks for help!

    The 4s will work with the MLB app and AirPlay if you turn on MIRROR mode.  It doesn't actually mirror the display, it projects the video as you would expect it to with AirPlay.  Unfortunately there are three 4's in my family and they don't work at all!

  • Sync Not Working On New Laptop

    I've just purchased a new laptop and after reinstalling Firefox and trying to sign in to my Firefox account to restore all my data it's not recognising my account. What can I do please??

    Hi Lunarinstincts,
    I am sorry however without a back up there are no work arounds that I can suggest to recover this data. Do you have a back up of the user profile from before the reinstall?
    For further questions please see the Firefox Accounts [https://accounts.firefox.com/legal/terms Terms of Service]

  • AirPlay not working between iPad/iPhone and ATV

    I live in an apartment with communal wifi and I'm unable to use AirPlay between my iPad and iPhone and my ATV. When I go to AirPlay on either device I'm able to see neighbors' ATVs; however, my own ATV is not listed. All three devices are connected to the same network. Any idea how I can make my ATV available? Thank you!

    Welcome to the Apple Community Chicago Bandit.
    Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
    Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
    Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
    Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
    Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    Restart your router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
    Restart your mobile device.

  • Handoff not working between ios 8 and Yosemite 10.10

    I have An iMac late 2012  Processor 2.7, memory *GB 1600 MHz  just had it all backed up on an external drive .Installed new Yosemite 10.10 I have an iPhone 5S
    my problem is the handoff between them is not working.

    First, verify that the Mac is capable of using Handoff. Hold down the option key and select System Information... from the Apple menu. In the System Information window, select Bluetooth from the list on the left. Near the top of the summary of "Hardware, Features, and Settings," you should see this line:
              Handoff Supported: Yes
    Follow the instructions in this support article. All the devices using Handoff must be connected to the same Wi-Fi network. If the Mac also has an Ethernet connection, disconnect the Ethernet cable.
    If Handoff still doesn't work, on the mobile device, turn Handoff off and back on as directed in the linked article. On the Mac, turn Bluetooth off and back on. You might have to restart a mobile device to get it working.
