While I am offline working with local apache and mysql servers Firefox cannot connect to my Sync account and appears an error message. If it is possible to disable it while I am offline it will be better. Not a big deal, I can close it anytime, but it disturbs my attention of what I'm working on so I recommend before this notice to check if am I online or at least to have an option to disable this message in firefox sync preferences.

Firefox will only sync when it is open and attached to an account. There is no pause button unless you turn off Firefox.
