Needed to restore laptop to original settings so I set up sync thinking I would be able to use sync to restore Firefox after restore was done. Now I cannot seem to sign in to sync to do this. How do I sync this laptop now?

Can you compare what you did with instructions @ How do I set up Sync on my computer? Maybe you missed a step somewhere.
