Thepassword I get to sync from firefox is very long and does not fit the 9 accepted password characters on firefox windows 7. How do I match the password or sync my accounts?

Hi NightsRiver,

Are you using the same version of firefox on both machines?

The process should be as described in this article:

How do I set up Sync on my computer?

The key thing is that the 9 characters are not your password. They are generated when you click on the 'Pair a device' link.

I hope that helps. Let me know if not.
