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.

  • 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.

  • Home Sharing not working between wireless PC's / devices and ethernet wired PC's on the same router.

    Home Sharing is not working between wireless PC's / devices and ethernet wired PC's on the same router.  I installed a new Verizon FIOS ActionTec  MI424WR GigE wireless / ethernet router, replacing the original FIOS router.  With the old router Home Sharing worked fine across and among all iOS and Windows wired and wireless devices.  With the new router Home Sharing works between and among the Wired PC's but not between the wired PC's and the Wireless connected PC's or iOS devices.  Home Sharing also works between and among the wireless connected PC's and iOS decices but not between them and the wired PC's.
    Only the router was changed.  No changes were made to any of the devices except all were updated with the latest version of iTunes 10.7.0.21 and the iSO devices were updated to iOS vrsion 6.01.  Three PC's are wired and all are running Windows 7.  There also is a Windows Home Server connected to the router by ethernet port.  It does not run iTunes but does provide WebDAV services to my iOS devices.  This works fine.  Two PC's are wireless, one running Windows 7 and one running Windows 8.  All of the PC's are connected to the same (new) router via it's ethernet ports and it's wireless access point.  Two of the wired PC's are connected via a high-speed  ethernet hup that is connected to the router (Home Sharing works fine between the two PC's on the hub and the PC on the router).  All wired and wireless devices on the router are visible and members of the router's Home/Office virtual network.
    All of the PC's are visible in the Windows network and all shared files are accessable from all PC's, both wired and wireless.
    Obviously the router seems to be the issue, something between the ethernet and the wireless access point components.  I checked the settings and found nothing that would prevent Home Sharing between the wired and wireless devices.  There is no setting that isolates the wireless network.  I have done the following:
    Read the router user manual and checked all the settings
    Rebooted the router and tested.
    Turned off the router's firewall and tested.
    Home Sharing is turned on all the devices and all use the same Apple ID.
    Restarted iTunes and tested.
    Verified iTunes is "Allowed" in each PC's firewall.
    Again, I can Home Share between the two wireless PC's but not between either of the wireless PC's and any of the wired PC's.  I can Home Share between my iPads and iPhones and either of the two wireless PC's but not with any of the wired PC's.  I can Home Share between any of the wired PC's but not between any wired PC and a wireless PC or iOS device.
    I hope someone may have had a similar problem and has a fix suggestion.  I'm stumped!  I have a;so contacked ActionTec and awaiting an answer.

    Solution from ActionTec is:
    Log into your router.
    Click the Advanced icon
    Cclick Yes
    Click on the IGMP Proxy
    Select Disable
    Click Apply

  • 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?

  • Activesync not working for Windows Phone with certificate

    We have a new Exchange Server 2013 setup and using activesync.  We have setup a policy to require simple password and to send an email to provision a device when it connects.  Activesync is setup to use self signed certificates,  this was
    tested first on the Ipad.  Certificate installed entered the settings and the device appeared in the quarantined devices list awaiting to be approved.  This was also done on the Iphone and worked. 
    When putting the same certificate on the windows phone device it errored with there is a problem with {as.domain-name.net} and does not appear in quarantined devices screen.
    I tested again with another Ipad and an android device and they work without an issue.  Tested with a Windows RT device and got the same issue.  If I look in the IIS log files I can see the windows device making a connection then when I presume
    to be the error 500 at the end of the line. 
    This is not a user issue as I can use the same user on the various devices.  The windows devices just do not want to connect.  We have looked at the certificate but if it works for apple and android devices why does it not work for windows? 
    Is there any additional security settings that need to be turned on or off for windows phones?  Is there something specific on the certificate what windows devices need that others ignore?

    I did inital think it might be a widows phone issue but there are no other settings for me to use.  I have also tested using a windows 8 surface and I get the same issue.
    I have raised the event log level on the exchange server to expert and I have seen 2 messages when I try to connect. 
    I get Event ID 1100:  Exhcnage ActiveSync device requests for your uses are being blocked.  This problme frequently occurs when HTTP OPTIONS method is not allowed.
    I know it is allowed as the test exchange connectivity worked and passed that test.
    The other error Event ID 1309 ASP.NET warning.  Part of the exception messge is DeviceTypeMissingOrInvalid
    I have come across a comment that says for certificates to work you need to use windows intune or SCCM which we don't have.  Do we know if this is true? 

  • Microphone on Macbook pro does not work in windows 7 with parallels

    I recently purchased a Macbook pro with retina display, and installed windows 7 on the macbook with parallels desktop 7.  I found out my microphone was not working correctly inside windows, I did bought my laptop to Apple store, at first we thought it was the microphone problem and exchanged me a new laptop, but the issue still exits, so I bought the laptop back to Apple store, this time we find out it seems like the microphone only not working under the windows, it works just fine in Mac part.
    Apple direct me to windows telling me that I might need to install a device or driver only windows can provide; then when I contacted window, Windows told me I need to contact apple because the device or deriver must provided by the manufacture of the PC.  Both side still direct me back to each other, so I still don't know what deriver or device I needed..........
    When I pull up the device manager inside windows, the only device listed under sound is "Parallels Audio Controller (x64)"
    Another thing is, the microphone still works inside windows 7, it's just not working correctly.  For an example, if I'm doing a live chatting with my friends inside windows, I can hear my friends and they can hear me too, but they cannot hear me very clearly, it seems like there are some kind of negative feedback, it seems like there's an electronic vibrate in my voice.
    Can someone please help me
    Thank you

  • ITunes Home Sharing not working in Windows 8 with Apple TV

    My Home Sharing does not work on Apple TV 2 - I am running the latest version of itunes, apple tv software, all windows updates installed, all firewall ports required are open, anti-virus is allowing things through, I have reset and restarted my apple tv, pc and routers, unticked IPv6 - still nothing - please help!

    Problem solved, however not the way I would have preferred...
    Turns out that I needed to disconnect the hardwired ethernet connection between my router and the Apple TV.
    I my setup consisted of a traditional hardwired Linksys router, and a matching Linksys access point.
    Both my computers were on the wireless network setup by the access point, and were able to communicate between each other just fine.
    However, for whatever reason neither one would communicate with the AppleTV while it was hardwired to the router. Once I unplugged it, and assigned it to the same wireless network as the computers were on, it was able to see both computers without any problems...
    Not too upset, seeing as how the AppleTV is only about a foot from the access point and router - so there are no signal strength issues. However, I would have preferred to keep the AppleTV on the hardwired connection...
    Hope this comes in handy for anyone else with this problem...

  • Itunes wifi sync not working on windows 8!!

    Does itunes wifi sync works on windows 8? Because i already have enabled wifi sunc but after i disconnect the cable from the ilhone it doesnt aloud me to do sync via wifi.  Does anyone know how to make it work properly on windows 8?

    Interesting. I still haven't had any problems with iTunes 10.7 under Windows 8 Pro, including adding music files purchased from a 3rd party source (Amazon) and buying an album through iTunes. iTunes successfully matched the Amazon-purchased MP3's, and I was able download the iTunes AAC's to replace them. The only thing not typical about my set-up that I can think of is that I have iTunes installed on my B: drive--both the program files and the iTunes Media folder--not on my C: drive (an SSD). My library sounds about the same size as yours (~4,000 songs).
    (My only Windows 8 problem has been with DVD playback and the Windows 8 Store Netflix and Hulu apps. It looks like the new AMD graphics card drivers don't seem to be passing HDCP tests under Windows 8. There are simple work-arounds--watching Netflix or Hulu in a web browser--so at this point, I'm just waiting.)
    Good luck with your iTunes issues.

    I used to have the old Logitech illuminated keyboard and I thought it was because of logitech so I bought a new keyboard. (There were several issues with my old keyboard anyways) I now have the Logitech k360 and the same issue popped up. The play/pause backwards and forwards keys do not work. However on a side-note the FN hotkey to open iTunes does work. I have reinstalled drivers, software, itunes, did some other stuff and they didn't work. It's not on logitech's end.
    I just reinstalled to 10.3.1 and now I'm getting a message when I try to run the program saying "The file 'iTunes Library.itl' cannot be read because it was created by a new version of iTunes." I'm just going to uninstall and reinstall the latest version for the 3rd time now and hope Apple releases an update which fixes this compatibility issue.
    I'm running Windows vista 64.

    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

  • Sync not working w/ version 4.3.4 and iTunes 10.4

    I need help please. I just updated my iPhone to latest version 4.3.4 and updated iTunes to the current version, 10.4.  Now, my Microsoft Outlook calendar and my iPhone calendar will not sync.  It works perfectly fine before these updates.  It was a 2-way sync.  Now, if I enter anything in one location, it doesn't sync to the other at all - not even one-way sync.  I'd greatly appreciate any help if anyone has experienced this and knows how to fix.  Thank you!

    None of the solutions in this thread or other similar threads have worked for me. I have uninstalled and reinstalled all Apple files using the correct sequence. I have disabled all Outlook plugins except for the two Apple plugins. I have disabled Bonjour and run Itunes in WIndos 7 Compatibility mode.
    I also seem to have a slightly different issue and I think the issue may be with the Outlook Itunes plugin or the Outlook Change Notifier plugin.
    Here's my situation since upgrading to iTunes 10.4.0.80 and iOS 4.3.5 - although the issues started with early versions of 10.4 and 4.3. I am using Outlook 2010 32  bit version on WIndows 7 64 bit version. I am using Outlook with a PST file not MS Exchange.
    1. The sync appears to go okay with the backup, preparing to sync, syncing contacts, syncing calender, syncing notes, etc. Successful backups are shown in the Device tabs in Preferences and if I run iTunes diagnostics all tests are successful.
    2. Any edits I make in Contacts or Calender on my iPhone are not apparent in Outlook after a sync. The Notes seem to sync just fine.
    3. Edits I make to Contacts or Calender in MS Outlook are inconsistently synced to my iPhone. Sometimes they sync and sometimes they don't.
    4. No for the really wierd part. If I connect my iPad and sync all of the edits that were originally done on the iPhone are present and correct on the iPad. However, again edits that were originally done in Outlook are sporadic.
    So it appears to me that the data in the Outlook file is probably syncing correctly but that the display of the data within outlook is not correct. This makes me think the Outlook Change Notifier might be the issue. I just don't know how to test this or fix this. I know there is a cache used with MS Exchange but I cannot find any cache with a PST file.
    Any help or other ideas would be appreciated.

  • FN -Function- key not working between my Logitech Bluetooth keyboard and my ipad2; any suggestions?

    My new Bluetooth keyboard -Logitech- features a Function FN key that's not working, even though the rest of the letter, #s and signs are. Thank you for looking into it!

    Here we go again!  The return key on my iPad stopped working again.
    I don't think I posted more information here but on the Logitech site.  Basically, rather than go through all the steps of resetting the iPad, I used canned air to blow out under the return key.  I had to lift the key a bit with a pen knife to get better air flow.  I think I've done this twice.
    Well, this morning the return key stopped working as well as the |\ key.  I sprayed and sprayed with no success.  This  time I had no system upgrade: just one day working and the next not.
    This time I tried another trick that will be cumbersome.  I used the wireless keyboard from my wife's iMac.  The bad news is that the pairing wouldn't hold.  I finally figured out that the Apple wireless keyboard was still listed on the iMac.  Once I unpaired the keyboard from the iMac I was able to pair it with my iPad.
    The return key and  the |\ key work fine.
    It's going to be awkward carrying around the Apple wireless keyboard, but it does fit over the Logitech keyboard.  And I'll have to remember to carry extra AA batteries:(
