When I try to connect my Galaxy S to my Sync account (witch works perfect between my laptop and desktop), it does not work.

When I type in the "add device code" on the side of my laptop, it gives me a message "device connected", but nothing really happens. It does not sync.

When I try to connect via Android on the mobile, the screen (where you type in your username, password and sync key) dissapears after clicking "connect", but the menu keeps saying "not connected"...

Does anyone have an idea of what is going wrong?

NB: FF 4.0.1 on the laptop and mobile.

Regards,

After you enter the code from your phone into your laptop, does your phone display a "Connected" message? If so, then it should start syncing in the background within a few minutes, or you can start it right away: In the Sync preferences on the phone, press the "Details" button and then press the "Sync now" button.
