• Problem with sync error: synchronization has encountered an error during synchronization: unknown error. Sync automatically retrying this action.

  Hi, I started recently a problem with the sync on my desk. My partner Android and Mac laptop no problems when you attempt to synchronize, but office always gives the same error. I tried to disconnect from the desktop computer, erase all files, restart and then adding the Office to synchronize once more, but the error persists.

  All bookmarks on the desktop disappeared, but are still in my sync data and have no problem being viewed on other connected devices. It also tells me that the issue is not the sync server and that there is something unique to the desktop machine.

  I hope that this will not require a reinstall, but if all else fails, it's an option. I'll try to attach a log file once I put the question.

  I think the error message is in the title of the thread:
  
  Sync has encountered an error during synchronization: unknown error. Sync automatically retrying this action.

  Try creating a new profile as a test to check whether your profile is the source of the problems.

  Just started last night when I went to the new synchronization. Any ideas?

  It's a problem with history:

• Firefox Sync: Unknown error

  I get an "unknown error" in Firefox Sync on my two computers. Here are the most recent error log:

  http://pastebin.com/17HCcAzu

  With the help of Pastebin, because the log exceeds the limit of 10,000 characters.

  These stand out:
  1412074958242 Status.login Sync.Status DEBUG: error.login.reason.no_username = > error.login.reason.no_recoverykey
  1412074958242 Status.service Sync.Status DEBUG: service.client_not_configured = > service.client_not_configured

  I think you may be affected by an old key recovery being stored. Is is possible to delete the account temporarily and connect to synchronize once more?

  I have also added to the 503 error, but it can be related [Bug 1073270]label bugzilla

• Firefox Sync error message

  Hi today with Firefox 33.0.2 I was see an error at the bottom of the screen whenever FF is open. The message reads - "Sync has encountered an error during synchronization: unknown error." Synchronize automatically retrying this action. »

  This happens both of my laptops running the latest stable version of FF is 33.0.2.

  I am also using the latest version of sync using just a password and e-mail address to connect computers on behalf of synchronization, who has had no problems until about 3 hours ago.

  If I get the above error message, and then try to perform a manual synchronization using the sync tool the message will pass to-"Sync has encountered an error during synchronization: the Firefox Sync server maintenance is underway, synchronization will automatically resume." Sync automatically retrying this action. "

  Why I posted here because I tried the Mozilla @mozservices Twitter account to see if there is any failure or maintenance in progress, but have had no luck.

  Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

  See you soon.

  Edit-
  Hi again just thought I would add what I use FF Sync for is simply the bookmarks between 2 laptops and have never had this problem before now.

  See you soon.

• When I connect to a server that is not responding, Firefox displays an error message. It just hangs there.

  I had two incidents recently where FireFox will simply display a blank screen. In both cases when I tried the same website in Google Chrome, Chrome displays an error message which helped me to solve the problem. Firefox just sits there without understanding. I can't find a check in FireFox options box that says: "display system error messages. How can I do this? I prefer FireFox to Chrome, but if FireFox didn't tell me what the problem is, I can't use it. This problem has cost me more than a week in a recent update of the site.

  One possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or limits Firefox or plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.

  Delete all rules for Firefox in the list of permissions in the firewall and leave your firewall again ask permission to get full unlimited access to the internet for Firefox and the plugin-container and the update process.

  I used Firefox Sync successfully on Firefox 3.x and 4.x. This problem is related to Firefox 5.1? What should I do to fix this?

  Hello!

  You don't need Firefox 4, the extension. Just uninstall it and run as usual.

  At the time when your system does not use the extension of Firefox Sync more and is it is true that it should be transparent, we see some cases where expansion is causing malfunctions like yours.
