I have set up FireFox Sync on my work PC synchronized everything except passwords and bookmarks (i use lastpass and xmarks). Now i have installed FireFox on my private laptop and logged in to sync. I can see that it has synced because that i can see the tabs under about:sync-tabs. And no errors under the about:sync-log. But the preferences are not synced, i have moved around on icons in the menu and set some things under general and custom search. None of that are synced?

Only prefs that have a corresponding services.sync.prefs.sync.* pref that is set to true will be synced to other devices.
