• How to convert the old sync key (12 characters, no dashes) to the new sync key (31 characters, 5 dashes)?

  My sync key was of 12 characters, no dashes (xxxxxxxxxxxx). After uninstalling and reinstalling FF 3.6.13, Sync 1.6.1 refuses my sync key to 12 characters.
  I discovered, that the keys of synchronization for all users have been activated to 31 characters including 5 dashes (x-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx). How can I get the new key for synchronization?
  I have no PC connected to Firefox Sync more but Firefox Home and 360 browser on my iPhone successfully sync. Unfortunately on the iPhone I can't display the sync currently used key. Is there a way to convert the old key to sync to the new?
  I need the bookmarks saved in my sync account.
  Thanks for your help!

  I had the same exact symptoms as you did. Here is my solution:
  I installed an older version of firefox sync (1.4.something, I think) and then added my account using my old short firefox sync key. When you try to synchronize, the out of date addon says to do synchronization, it must be updated. After update, I always signed, but now had the additional device to see my new long firefox sync key that was compatible with FF 4 b, etc. Everything works fine now and my computer is properly synchronize.

• My sync key is always the same and I didn't even reset sync but my data is lost. I do not know how? I installed v13.0 while I was with 14.0 earlier.

  I have had only one device where I used the Firefox Sync. I have installed Windows 8 version preview (new installation) and entered the sync key that I recorded using the previous installation of my Firefox(v 14.0).
  Then I installed Firefox on my installation of Windows 8 with an older version of Firefox (v 13.0).
  I got a message saying it was your first sync, but I used it earlier too. Several times I have synced my laptop with data on the server after each new installation, and it worked. I had all my data every time but cela. Now, I tried twice by removing this device from my list of synchronization, but of no use. And I don't know that I have not reset the synchronization server data. And no one but me has access to my computer laptop and even the key of the synchronization.
  I have not any chance to get my data? Whether if by again installing v14.0 or something else. I'd really appreciate for any help.

  Hello!

  Unfortunately Sync is not planned to use as a backup feature. While in general, it works very well, data in the servers is not there permanently and sometimes it get deleted (servers are just not for storage transport).

  My recommendation, moving forward is to create a local backup or another device to have the copy on multiple devices.

  Sorry about that,

• Hi, is it possible to restore the synchronization data after accidentally putting sync key? I still have an old key synchronization. Thank you

  Hi, is it possible to restore the data synchronized after accidentally putting synchronization key a day ago? I still have an old key synchronization. Thank you

  Sorry, when the sync key is reset data synchronization on the server are deleted.

  Your data must remain on other devices that use Sync before you reset your sync key, that data is not disabled when the sync key is reset.

  Now, if you had only a device running on this account synchronization and you reformatted this device, you have made a fatal mistake by resetting the sync key; There is no way to recover this type or user error. Sync was not designed as a media set in itself, there is no backup of data synchronization server or a way to restore a mistake as the synchronization key reset.

• Want the old data of Firefox, old PC died, new recovery keys will remove old data on server.

  I created Sync on my hard drive now unusable, with all my goodies of Firefox on it. I am now on another hard drive but when I try to set up the synchronization and recover my old data, he said that I need a recovery key. I can't get a so it generates one, but a new will apparently remove the old data that I want to do unnecessary synchronization. How to access my old data without a key?

  I was and am now running Firefox 28.0 on two hard drives.

  Hello, it is not possible to recover your old data sync without the recovery key, because the data is stored encrypted on mozilla sync servers and it's the only key to decrypt. If you have already generated a new recovery key and then also data on the servers was overwritten - so I'm afraid that this data is lost for good...

• What should I do if someone steals my Firefox sync key?

• New signing keys

  Hey guys

  Thank you for your support, the last time I had questions.

  I have developed many applications PlayBook with WebWorks.

  Today, I wanted to get one of them running on my DevAlpha camera.

  I had the same problem as this guy here:

  http://supportforums.BlackBerry.com/T5/testing-and-deployment/ripple-deploy-to-BB10-dev-Alpha-failur...

  Here's my output terminal:

  Building:

  1. [INFO] The application of filling source

  3. [WARNING] Build ID is defined in the file config.xml [version], but no signature password was provided [-g]. Bar will be unsigned

  I ordered new signing keys because mine were only for PlayBook and I needed for BB10.

  Then I started GraphicalAid, implemented the last SDK to WebWorks BB10 as 'BlackBerry WebWorks SDK location' and click "Start the Configuration Wizard".

  On the last step, I was able to click on "Register New Keys".

  Here comes the problem.

  Luckily the program told me this:

  "(!) ATTENTION: this action will cancel the registration of that computer, making it impossible to sign applications.  To continue signing applications and the creation of debugging tokens, you must re-enroll to the: http://www.blackberry.com/go/codesigning after re-registration, new versions of your applications appear as new applications, not upgrades, and will not have access to shared data from previous versions.  Are you sure you want to delete your current keys? »

  Now, I want to be able to get the BB10 apps running but I also want to be able to release future updates of my PlayBook applications. If updates recognized as new apps I can't use them as updates.

  So I have not deleted my key of course, but now I can't test stuff on my DevAlpha using my DebugToken.

  I thought it might be because I used BlackBerry Tablet OS graphical help but I don't know too much about.

  Any suggestion guys?

  Please help me.

  You must use a very old version of Firefox if this version has always used a separate key for synchronization.
  29 Firefox and later no longer use a specific key synchronization, but derive the key to the synchronization of the password of the Firefox account that you use to sign in to this account.

• where can I use my sync key?

  If Firefox put updated its sync system is no longer need a synchronization key I guess. I still all my data locked up and I got my key to sync but since the update, I can't understand how to unlock using my key synchronization. My question is, where do I go to get all my data using my sync key? I need a url or some sort of link because this is no where I can find.

  You need to install a version of Firefox 28 if you want to access the data stored in a synchronization account that uses the old version of Sync.

  You can upgrade again to the current version of Firefox 30 once you have restored your synchronized data.

• Firefox + 29 (new) Sync doesn't work at all on Firefox 30 Aurora, works fine site in Chrome

  I tried to set up new sync with Firefox 30 Aurora, but it won't work because synchronization page simply displays an empty box. Inside this box is an iframe pointing to a location as accounts.firefox.com, who saw in Aurora is still a Virgin, but in chrome, I can sign up and generally it works fine. This means that now, I have an account, but I can't actually mount sync on Aurora because the synchronization page is empty.

  Yep, the bug with their server-side settings has been fixed now, to make it work!

• What is the different between firefox "Sync Key" and "key recovery"?

  The problem is: I can't get my data from server. I have my key to 'Sync', and I used it several times before, but now Firefox says its wrong. Are 'sync key' and two 'recovery key' names to a single key or its two different keys?

  There is no difference between tho two names, they both refer to the sync key that is used to encrypt data locally before sending it to the sync server.

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

  See "create a profile":

  When you configure synchronization how sync manages information on two computers? It merges the information?

  Hello!

  Yes, how Sync is that it brings together all the bookmarks and pushes them to all your devices. Same thing with the story.

  You will lose all the information in one of your computers.
