I entered the wrong age when setting up Sync and now it won't allow me to create an account.

Setting up a Sync account I entered my age as 1 instead of 41. I now cannot create an account because Firefox is remembering my age as 1 and I get an error message saying I am not old enough to create a Sync account,

Hi

If you type about:preferences#sync into the address bar and select "Manage Account", you will have the option to delete your account.

You can then set up a new account and apply those details to your second device so that Firefox Sync will be able to connect to it.
