MacBook Pro and Mac Pro, Mac OS 10.8.2, Firefox 21 I set up syncing as per directions and all went fine and messages were correct. But... The bookmarks between the two do not sync. What to try now? Thank you.

Problems with bookmarks and history not working properly can be caused by a corrupted places.sqlite database file.

You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database file in the Firefox profile folder.

Thank you but... I trashed the whole profile on both computers and started both new. Then added one bookmark to one machine. It never made it to the other. So I gave up. But again, thank you.
