Where is the sync tab in the options block in vista

i am trying to set up firefox sync on a laptop running vista. when I open tools, options there is no tab for sync

Hi!
Sync was integrated in the Firefox browser with the release of Firefox 4. If you are using a previous version of Firefox (i.e. 3.6) you should upgrade to Firefox 5 to get this feature.
If for an specific reason you need to stay in the previous version, you can still download Firefox Sync as an [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/firefox-sync/ add-on] but take in count this is not supported anymore.

  • My options menu does not have "Add a Device" link under the Sync tab, where do I find it?

    I'm trying to set up sync between my PC and Samsung phone. I believe I have everything ready but I do not have an option to add a device in the sync tab in my options menu. Running 4.0b7, what am I missing...

  • I am using firefox 3.6.23 on my old computer, I have a new laptop that I would like to transfer the bookmarks from the old to the new, but the old computers firefox does not have the sync tab under options, what now?

    I have a tower running windows XP, using Firefox 3.6.23. I have a new laptop running windows 7. I have just downloaded firefox 7. Now I want to bring the bookmarks form my old tower computer using firefox 3.6.23 to the new laptop using firefox 7.0. I got the instruction on how to sync the two computers, but I cannot find the sync tab under options in the firefox 3.6.23 computer. Will upgrading the tower's firefox to a newer version give me the sync tab under options?

    With firefox 3.6 I think you may have had to use sync as a separate add-on. If so try finding and installing that. Alternativly export your bookmarks from Firefox 3.6, then move that file, using any suitable method (eg removable media, email atacchment, computer network) to somewhere the new laptop can access it and imprt the bookmarks. Remember
    * back up your bookmarks (on both machines) before doing anything
    * importing standard firefox bookmarks overwwrites existing bookmarks
    * (if you just have a few bookmarks on one machine, consider exporting as HTML, when you import those they will append, instead of overwriting the existing files)
    See
    * [[backing up and restoring bookmarks]]
    * [[backing up your information]]
    * [[importing bookmarks and other data from other browsers]]

  • I am trying to sync a playlist to my Nano,  but when I click on the Music tab at the top, it will not allow me to select the option Selected Playlist, Artists, etc.  I cannot un-check the Entire Music library option and check the Selected Artist - on

    I am trying to sync a playlist to my Nano,  but when I click on the Music tab at the top,
    it will not allow me to select the option Selected Playlist, Artists, etc.  I cannot un-check the Entire Music library
    option and check the Selected Artist … one.
    I have changed the Sync option to Manually sync, but that does not help.
    How can I change this to the second option?
    Thanks.

    There is a checkbox above those two options for how to sync.  It says Sync Music; it enables automatic syncing.  That box needs to be checked before you can select from the two options for how automatic syncing is performed.
    NOTE:  If the iPod is current set up to Manually manage music [and videos], checking that Sync Music box replaces its current content with content from your iTunes library, based on how automatic syncing is set up on that screen.
    So, if your goal is to add ONE playlist to an iPod that is managed manually, you do not want to do this because iTunes will erase the iPod's current content and replace it with just that ONE selected playlist (and whatever else you select on that Music settings screen).
    Instead, if the iPod currently uses the manual setting, you need to add playlists manually to the iPod (not use the automatic syncing setting).  Please post back with more details about your situation. 

  • Where has the "recordings" options gone in imovie for the iphone? It used to be listed under the audio tab in the import icon.

    Where has the "recordings" options gone in imovie for the iphone? It used to be listed under the audio tab in the import icon. At one point you could add audio to a project from the Voice Memo app.

    there is NO "reload" button under "customize"!

    You don't need to upgrade your software.  But if you're struggling with Spry, IMO you should cut your losses and switch to something better for the longrun.
    If you have a budget to work with, I highly recommend Project Seven's Pop-Menu Magic 3.  It's easy to use in DW CS4, 5, 6 or CC.  More importantly, it's bullet proof and works in all devices.

    If you don't have a budget to work with, you can roll your own menus with jQuery plugins.  A bit more effort on your part, but they perform better than Spry.

  • How do I move a movie I have synced from iTunes into the "Movies" tab of the Video App? I need to access a slideshow I made in IMovies and may not have WiFi. I did it once, but can't figure out how to do it again! The file is an m4v. Thank you!

    Im just guessing but it seems like you would have to get your movie into the correct folder on a computer then use iTunes to sync it to your iPad. If you've synced to a computer and have movies then on your computer should be a folder with the movie in it. You could export your iMovie to something like Dropbox then download from Dropbox to the folder you think it needs to be in the sync your iPad again. Again this is just a guess. Others may have a better answer.

  • I don't get "Manage my Account" when I select the Sync tab, but if I try to create a new account it says my userid is already in use. How can I get my password & sync key?

    My OS is Windows 7 Home Premium.
    My Firefox version is 4.0.1.
    When I try to setup Firefox Sync, I get a choice of "Create a new account" or "Connect".
    The first tells me my email address is already in use, but selecting the Sync tab does not give me "Manage my Account."
    How can I find out my password and sync key?

    Hi Russ!
    Apparently you already configured your account but you don't have nor the key or the password. You can get the password in the [https://account.services.mozilla.com/forgot following link] but you would need the Sync Key to sync your device to the rest of your devices.
    If you don't have the Sync Key the best thing you can do is to reset it, by deleting the previous account and creating a new one with the same user. You can perform this tasks from your [https://account.services.mozilla.com/ account dashboard].

  • The Firefox on my phone wont sync properly even when I click sync the tabs wont sync even if I pull up and drop down the synced tabs bar. Please help!

    I have seen this problem has been asked about before. However not a single solution provided has worked for me. I have no restricted data or a battery app that's affected my syncing capabilities (or any program like that for that matter). I have tried the sync now button, I've hidden the synced tabs menu and dropped it back down, I've pulled down the synced tabs menu, I've started a new Firefox instance after completely shutting it down, as well as everything else that was suggested. I've used a search engine looking for a solution and have come up with nothing. I'm running Firefox on my laptop, Android phone, as well as my Android tablet. I'm using my laptop with opened tabs. The first time I synced Firefox it worked. Every time since then (I've tried like 100 times and that's not an exaggeration) it hasn't worked on either my phone or tablet. Could someone please help because I'm at my wits end and am considering going back to Chrome. For anyone who can help I sincerely thank you for your time and effort.

    Two things that were not mentioned that might lead to
    *Are you syncing active tabs on two devices?
    *Is Auto-Sync selected on the mobile device in the Account Settings?

  • SPA122 - How to turn off "DHCP Option To Use" in the Provisioning tab using the XML configuration file?

    As default, SPA122 and SPA112 have DHCP Options 66, 160, 159 and 150 turned on.
    Our pre-provisioning process includes adding our default profile rule to our provisioning server for the device to pull its configuration files once the device has been added to an account.
    However, it seems like some customers have had problems with the device downloading the definite configuration file and manually turning off option Option 66 in the provisioning tab in the device solves this issue.
    Is there any option we could add to our pre-provisioning file so that it removes 66 from the "DHCP Option to Use" field in the provisioning tab?
    Please advise...

    Thanks Dan,
    I didn't know the dhcp server could serve different options to different classes of clients, I'll have to look that up!
    Moises
    so if your provisioning file has this line below (this is from a spa5xx config I had in my temp folder, so use the line from your provisioning file, or use the SPC tool to create a new default config for that device type)
    <DH<DHCP_Option_To_Use group="Provisioning/Configuration_Profile">66,160,159,150,60,43,125</DHCP_Option_To_Use>
    change it to
    <DH<DHCP_Option_To_Use group="Provisioning/Configuration_Profile">160,159,150,60,43,125</DHCP_Option_To_Use>
    Hope it helps,

  • Why does Firefox sometimes still tell me that I have cache to clear in the Advanced tab of the Options menu after I completely clear it using Clear Recent History?

    I always have the time range in the Clear Recent History window set to "Everything", too.

    While I didn't know about the about:cache page, it doesn't help me understand why Firefox is doing this, and how to fix it. Also, as I said in my question, I already knew about the cache information in the Advanced tab of the Options menu. I was trying to imply that I sometimes have to clear it using both the Clear Recent History feature and in the Advanced tab of the Options menu, because using Clear Recent History doesn't delete it all.
