Hi there. So I haven't been using Mozilla Firefox for very long and I created my account just a few weeks ago. Since then I have bought myself a new PC and when I try to login into my primary account it gives me the message: "Primary account email required for sign-in" even though I only have one e-mail (and I had to create a new one just to post here) and even if I go into 'Manage accounts' to add my primary e-mail which doesn't work for whatever reason, it says this: "This email was already verified by another user" and the only one that has verified it is me... I'm very frustrated about this and I have been trying to fix this problem for an entire day now.

I need help fixing this because I don't want to lose all my bookmarked websites!

I also have this issue. I can't re-enable sync on my laptop because I get the error "primary account email required for sign-in" IT IS MY PRIMARY EMAIL. I'M SIGNED IN RIGHT NOW. So frustrating.
