OK I was tidying up my bookmarks that over the years through various iterations of Firefox /chrome. But first I disconnected from sync and elected to delete all the saved sync information. I then went through and tidied all my book marks getting rid of any duplicates and ones with broken links. All good. Next I closed everything down and restarted. Had all my bookmarks just how I wanted them. Reconnected to my Firefox account to update all the saved data from my machine to account. Went away to allow time to sync. Closed Firefox after an hour or so. Open Firefox and automatically connected to my Firefox account. All the bookmarks are there as I had left them. No problem. Firefox seemed to delete all the browsing history (or maybe it didn't sync it in the first place). BUT.....no container data. It has reset the containers to the default state. Pretty sure this is not how sync should work. but when I open a private browser its container data seems to be intact. Anyone struck this? I notice Firefox updated to 66 on 19/3/2019 Love containers, its close to what the internet should be like I know container data has not yet been made part of sync (everyone wants it!) but is this a bug or something they forgot to tell us in the new release. EDIT Bit more information. websites will not open in new container. Firefox gives prompt to always open in xxx container but then simply hangs

Hey everyone,
After reinstalling firefox because of a pdf bug, I can connect anymore. I have access to my email, password and authentication service and yet when I enter my authentication code I get "Your email was just returned. Mistyped email?".
On the support page it is assumed I lost access to my mail but this is not the case. It is part of a main ProtonMail address if that helps.
Any idea?

Hi all,
I've completed a new installation of Firefox on 2 PCs. I've sign-in on both of them - enabled sync - also for tabs. I get all my bookmarks synced - but Open Tabs are not synced.
I can see in the "Synced Tabs" sidebar the other PC name with the message "no open tabs"
I have also installed the app on my android - I couldn't see any synced tabs - although the name of the phone was showing in the side bar "Synced Tabs" on both PCs - again with the message "no open tabs"
about:sync-log do not show any new relevant log file - all files or old and not giving any clue about that problem

Either does not synchronize the data, either is too slow to do it or it DOES whatever it wants...
Last time I used it, I logged from Sync in a PC. I changed stuff to another that was still connected to Sync and waited to be sychronized online. Then I logged in to Sync again from the other PC. In a way I kept a BackUp and fixed things in the way I wanted. Imageine what happened. Every bookmark changed according to the other Synced devices and bookmarks of the new device added to Sync were deleted. So, when I add a new device to Sync it has to have NO Bookmarks. But the OLD Sync DID sychronized even the bookmarks of the NEW device added.
