Hello,

The first thing you can do is to do a manual re-signin. (menu > Account Email / Profile Icon > select signout.)

If Sync is still slow, try going to about:config, (use at own discretion), search for services.sync.syncInterval, and set it to 600000 or 300000 (if it is a very high number). The number represents the amount of milliseconds it waits. 600000 is 10 minutes and 300000 is 5 minutes.

Next if it doesnt work, go to about:sync-log and see if there are text files there. If there are, that means sync has some errors and that is the reason why sync takes so long/doesnt work.
