Firefox Sync never seems to get going?

I have Firefox on my Desktop, Laptop and ios (All Apple devices)

Sync is turned on and each individual device "syncs" (the wheel spins and completes) but I have yet to see my bookmarks on other devices? The other preferences are transferred, but I dont see any bookmarks anywhere else but my desktop?

I ran through the Firefox Sync troubleshooting options, but still doesn't seem to want to work (for me)

Just wondering what to try next?

Hi, Sorry is not working properly. I do not use this but I have some info that may or may not help you : This is all I have on Sync :

Should always keep a backup of your bookmarks : https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/export-firefox-bookmarks-to-backup-or-transfer

If nothing there reply back as a Manager will get around to viewing this.

Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.

You can open about:sync-log via the location bar to see if there are recent error logs available. You can upload a recent log if the log is too big to put in a reply.
