Possibly you could re-check that link. Or alternatively repost the log maybe at mozilla's pastebin:

Hello

Whats wrong with the link ? Does it open only for me ?

https://pastebin.mozilla.org/8336062

That "Success log" only shows Sync information about Add-ons. And the DEBUG info shows your add-ons were "not syncable: type not in whitelist: plugin" or "not syncable: not installed in profile.".

What Sync data did you setup to actually synchronize? https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-do-i-choose-what-types-information-sync-firefo

I've chosen only Bookmars, Add-ons and Preferences

What these lines tells us ?

All the AddOns were working perfectly on FF32, when I last synced before uninstalling and cleaning up.

Sorry that I missed the info about bookmarks and preferences. That log indicates that there weren't any bookmarks or prefs to synchronize.

Try disabling Add-ons from what data is Sync'd and try it again. BTW, there's a "manual" Sync button in the Customize palette - you can move it to the Menu box or to a Toolbar to be able to access and use that "button".

Funny I had about twenty AddOns

Also: When I say bookmars, I mean the ones from the bookmark toolbar I dind't keep bookmarks anywhere else

AddOns disabled now Sync button on sight

Nothing happens when clicking it.

Not even the preferences change.

Syncing Bookmarks

Ed will understand these log files better than I do, but it looks to me as if it is not finding any changes to update. Try adding a couple of new bookmarks and running Sync, at least see if it is now operating correctly.

Sync should work ok with bookmarks on the toolbar. Toolbar bookmarks are still bookmarks & stored in the same database. The just appear to be in a different location and within a different virtual folder.

I suspect the currently setup sync has never successfully synced with the original bookmarks.

1422146240335   Sync.Engine.Clients        INFO    0 outgoing items pre-reconciliation
1422146240335   Sync.Engine.Clients        INFO    Records: 0 applied, 0 successfully, 0 failed to apply, 0 newly failed to apply, 0 reconciled.
.....
1422146240340 Sync.Engine.Bookmarks INFO Records: 0 applied, 0 successfully, 0 failed to apply, 0 newly failed to apply, 0 reconciled.

Let's see what Ed has to say.

Any original Profile ? or Backup If you had renamed the old profile rather than deleting it the bookmarks would still be there to recover manually.

• Do you have any form of backup or image of that ?
• Can Windows help with that ?

I am afraid I tend to not use Sync, as although it will sync bookmarks it has also been known to corrupt them, whereas Firefox itself does a pretty good job of retaining and backing up bookmarks, especially if occasional manual backups are made.

• Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer

I really sent the profile folder to the limbo...

I do have manual backups of the addons and a few bookmarks But they are way out of date...

Wrong choice of mine to trust this Sync Really regretting now.

I like this advice. Never gonna use sync again.

Have you tried anything that John or I have suggested? John suggested adding a couple of bookmarks and I suggested disabling Add-ons from the sync process - both to see what happens in the Sync log.

IMO, sync for add-ons verges upon being useless for any extension that stores user data in prefs.js or in the extensions' own data file in the Profile folder. First off, "your extension" isn't save by Sync - the service takes note of which extensions you have installed and then contacts the AMO server that you have particular extensions installed and when add a new device those extensions will be installed on that new device after doing a compatibility check for the new device. Each extension that stores user data or prefs has to be specifically made compatible with the Sync service and/or a pref set manually in about:config by the user in order that your add-ons be completely sync'd and working the same on all devices. I see little value in Sync installing an add-on only to have the user need go in and manually 'tweak' the add-on to their tastes all over again. Easy when an extension has one or two settings, but many popular extensions have many dozens of settings - like CTR or TMP.

Bottom line is that Sync wasn't intended to be a "cloud" service [complete remote storage and recovery of data]. It is meant to synchronize Firefox personal data between multiple devices - where at least one device would always have the user's data when another device is cleared of that data. The Sync servers are there to handle transactional data [small bursts of data that differs from what is already on the server] once the initial set up of each device is completed.

The manner in which it sounds like you used Sync - backup, format, and recover data - isn't the intended purpose. Some users have been able to do that, but from what I have seen here in the support forum many more haven't been able to "pull it off" successfully. The limited user controls available keep Sync from working as a "cloud" service as some users try to do.

This last log refers to the sync with two new different bookmarks.

The behaviour described by the article IS the behaviour I was expecting: A list of my AddOns (not the AddOn itself), and their configurations (Preferences, I suppose). [I mean: I know that "Preferences" Sync backs up the about:config. That's all I needed. If it also restores AddOns configs, we have a bonus. But not even the first it accomplishes]
