Why I cannot check any item in Sync?

I had to reinstall my computer from scratch. After installing latest version of Firefox (49.0.1) I wanted to use Sync to restore my previous settings, addons, ... I have SignIn correctly, but all the checkboxes (Tab, Bookmarks, ..., Preferences) are unchecked and I cannot check it. When I click on some of them, it becomes grey (like disabled). So Sync doesn't work at all, because nothing is selected for Sync. I've try to refresh firefox few times, but it still behaves same. What to do?

So, because I am not able to use Firefox as I would like and need for several days, it's time to switch to Goole Chrome. Goodbye Firefox.
