After I log into Sync and then click the Sync button nothing at all visible happens. The help screens indicate I should receive the option to pair a device - I do not get this option.

I even deleted my account and set up a new one. Still no option to pair.

Hey acadkins327, Are you using the new sync in about:accounts? If you are setting up a second device you have to go to Preferences/Options and select Sync or on the about:accounts page there is a manage link.

If you come across any errors please add a picture and we can further investigate :-)
