Upgraded to Fedora 25, Firefox will not synch, just says working and sits there

Upgraded from Fedora 24 to 25. Firefox at latest version. Attempt to sync and complete sign in. it tries for about 30 seconds then a red banner message says "working". I have left it like that for hours but it never syncs. All other devices can synch fine, Bug in Fedora 25 somewhere?

hi hbay534, unfortunately this is currently a known issue in firefox 50 when you have set the browser to run in permanent private browsing mode ("never remember history" in the options > privacy panel). firefox developers are working to get this fixed in upcoming versions again...

Settings for privacy, browsing history and do-not-track

Other users have reported that happening them over the last 4 or 5 days. Hopefully now that the holiday weekend is over someone at Mozilla will be able to look into that issue with the Sync server.
