I have installed the same version of Firefox on two Win10 Pc's. However the Sync doesn't seem to be syncing my data into the new computer. Tried all methods
Hi, I am configuring my new Surface Laptop with the latest version of Firefox. The same version 54.0.1 works on both the old and the new laptop.
I have signed in with my Sync account into the new laptop and tried to sync and reinstall the browser. However even after many attempts Sync is not bringing the data to the new device from the account.
Kindly assist, I have tried all the different trouble shooting that has been advised on the forums and no luck yet.

Delete the signedInUser.json file in the Firefox profile folder and delete the Weave folder (Sync was formerly named Weave).
Remove an existing chrome://FirefoxAccounts entry in the Firefox Password Manager. If that isn't enough then delete the prefs.js files to reset all prefs and maybe also delete the compatibility.ini file to reinitialize the profile.
Delete and re-create the Firefox account or change the Sync password. Note that changing the Sync password will wipe all data stored on the Sync server.
Can you log in to the Sync account via this page?
You can use the button on the "Help -> Troubleshooting Information" (about:support) page to go to the current Firefox profile folder or use the about:profiles page.

On the new device try limiting Sync to just Bookmarks and (say) Passwords for the initial Sync event. If that is successful, then add Tabs, Preferences and maybe History. If that works too, then see if Addons will Sync.
Thank you. However, no change. No log event was created after that change and trial.

Thank you. Managed to get Sync working again after Deleting and re-creating the account again. However, strangely, Sync did not set up correctly until I added a 3rd device which wasn't a desktop.
It only worked after Firefox was installed on an Android Phone and after the recognition of that device the sync started to work. Strangely, the Sync is now working on both the desktops but not on the phone :-) Thank you all for the help.
