For about two days all my devices have been failing to sync, with "Unknown error" in the bottom bar, and errors like this in the sync logs:

You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database file in the Firefox profile folder.

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.

See "Creating a profile":

If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from an existing profile to the new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

They are having sync server issues for the past few days.

Sorry folks, we're still experiencing some intermittent server/hardware issues with sync. We really do appreciate your patience!
