Firefox sync asks me to Setup everytime I startup Firefox. With the earlier version of Weave, I just had to enter the User Name, Pwd and Pass Phrase and continue the sync
Firefox Sync asks me to setup every time I start Firefox. Weave did not do this. I just had to enter the User ID, Password, Passphrase and then sync. Now, I must select that I use Sync on another computer, enter the User ID, Password and Passphrase and then select Merge and then click Finish.
This happened
Every time Firefox opened
== After Weave became Firefox Sync

- NOTE: On Vista and Windows 7 you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen).

Same problem. Firefox 3.63 OS 10.6 Firefox Sync 1.3 Flash 10.0.45.2
Open Firefox. Click on Tools-->Options-->Privacy. You probably have "Clear History when Firefox closes" checked. Click on "Settings". Under "Data", un-check "Saved Passwords". Click "Ok" twice and re-start Firefox.
This should prevent your Firefox Sync username and password from being cleared each time your re-start Firefox.
