I have Firefox 29 on the main PC and I have created a sync account on the main PC for version 29 and above. I have loaded the latest version of Firefox on both Android devices and signed into the sync account. Both devices show Sync enabled when looking in Firefox settings>sync. I have ticked every option saying what I want to sync on all devices. I have a structured set of bookmarks on the main PC and I can't see these in bookmarks in the android devices neither can I see tabs history or passwords. I don't have add ons to check. In short the android devices are not picking up anything or the main PC is not sending data to Firefox server. I have disconnected the PC Firefox from sync and re-logged it into the account (The sync symbol rotated for some time after I did this) still can't see anything. Uninstalled the Android Firefox and reinstalled it and logged into sync account again - still nothing I can't figure this out. Anyone able to help?

Hi colin.duffield, There was an issue with a never ending sync that was addressed and landed for version 30. It may have been caused by a large amount of bookmarks. However please try Firefox Beta to see if this issue continues.

Thank you.
