Hi, I create an account to sync Bookmarks, Passwords, Add-ons, History etc from one computer to an other. I successfully created the account, verify mails, checkbox all features to sync in settings, and click on "sync' multiple times. But nothing is synced on my new computer. On the log I saw (about:sync-log):ab

Isisombululo esikhethiwe

My problem has been solved but no clue why/how. The only things I did was writing this issue. Maybe it takes a (long) time to sync ?

Try downloading Firefox from Mozilla. Download, unzip, and run firefox-bin from the folder and see if you have the same issue. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/#product-desktop-release I suggest running more than one version as a back up of your data. If one browser goes BOOM, your data will be in the other browser(s).

I was having sync issues with 109. All my devices were not showing in the sync tab and it took a few days for them to show.

Great. Not sure what happened behind the scene with sync.
