Firefox sync won't save imported passwords, but will save passwords manually entered
I exported my passwords from Chrome and used FFPass to import into Firefox.
The passwords are visible by inspecting:
Machine 1: Settings->Preferences->Privacy and Security->Saved Logins Machine 2: Settings->Logins and Passwords
But when I set-up my third machine and sync, everything gets installed correctly (bookmarks, tabs, preferences, etc) except logins. I don't see any logins; however, if I manually browse to a website, enter my login, Firefox will ask if I want to save. If I click yes, then that login is saved, but none of my imported logins are.
Can someone help? I have over 150+ logins... manually adding them one-by-one is not an option.
Machine 1: RHEL 7.7 / Firefox 60.8.0esr Machine 2: F29 / Firefox 68.0.2 Machine 3: F30 Firefox 68.0.2

I resolved this issue with the following steps:
- Browsing to: https://accounts.firefox.com/settings
- Clicking on 'Show' for 'Devices and apps'
- Clicking disconnect next to all devices
- Clicking Done
- Closing Firefox
- Re-adding just the machine with the passwords
It immediately auto-synced all passwords and then I reconnected the other machines, they synced as well.
I guess maybe there were some hiccups between devices... I don't know.

It seems I have the same problem: on my desktop computer I still have all my logins and passwords, but on my laptop, everything syncs but the logins and paswword. It still saves new passwords and login too. Linuxmint 18.3, firefox 69.0
