I have setup Firefox sync several times on my laptop. It syncs my bookmarks at the time (the only thing I want it to sync) but after closing Firefox and turning my computer off for the day, the next time I turn on my computer and get into FireFox the sync shows that it is not setup.

Take a look to this thread:

https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/886468 The sync fucntion resets every time I restart firefox. Why is this happening? (solved: "Changing the settings so that saved passwords are not deleted when Firefox closes solve the problem.")
