After upgrading to Firefox Sync 1.4, Sync does not automatically connect (or subsequently sync) after launch. This did not appear to be a problem under 1.3. I do not save passwords or have a Master Password. The only passwords in my FF password mgr are for Sync (login + encryption).

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

I just upgraded to 1.7, and I experience exactly this problem.

Every time I start Firefox anew, Firefox Sync will pretend that it has lost all credentials and I have to input username/password/key. Major pain, I consider to switch back to Xmarks...
