I am having problems with Xmarks extension.

1)I have to remove xmarks in order for Firefox to work. With xmarks it hangs.

2)I use xmars or several pcs on Firefox, Chrome and IE. At first, I was getting error messages, it wasn't synchronizing correctly; then, Firefox stopped working with xmarks altogether.

3)Xmarks works with Chrome, but not synchronizing correctly.

I have been using both Firefox and Xmarks for a long time, and never had this issue before.

Hi,

Please try this: start Firefox in Safe Mode, enable only Xmarks in Tools (Alt + T) > Add-on > Extensions (on the left), exit and start Firefox normally. This may help confirm if Xmarks by itself has a problem. Searching for issues in the Xmarks forums may also be helpful.
