I have Firefox 36.0.1 on both my Mac and PC, but they won't sync. I unlinked both and restarted a few times, and now they're both logged in, but won't sync. Please help.

Superman are these on the same computer or the same profile? Please rename the device in the sync profile.

If not, in order to further investigate:

  • How do I turn on sync logs:
  1. Open about:config and turn on: services.sync.log.appender.file.logOnSuccess and services.sync.log.logger.engine.bookmarks
  2. Restart Firefox and look at: about:sync-log
  3. Logs and error messages will be located here
