Sync bookmarks with shared computer at work

I'd like to share my bookmarks, not passwords, across devices. Seems straightforward for my own PC, laptop, phone. We hot-desk at work, each with our own Windows login. When I use FF there, I have my own set of bookmarks so assume it's specific to my login. So if I sync to that computer, will FF just sync my own bookmarks, or might it combine those from other users? Or might my bookmarks be syncd to someone else's FF too and clutter them up?
And while I'm here - can I set it to sync bookmarks but not passwords?
Thanks.

Hi!
Firefox Profiles are specific to the Operative System user. If you login with other user, you will have a different Firefox profile in place.
That said, Firefox Sync is configured on a profile basis. So no problem at all in the configuration you are looking for.
Regarding Passwords. Once you have set up your account, you can go to the Sync Tab in the Preferences window and you will see a list of things that you can synchronize. Uncheck those ones that you don't wan to synchronize (including passwords).

I cannot open iCal because of a problem. Can anybody help me? The computer will not allow it to open and sends a message to apple each time. The icon has gone from the dock, but ical works on my iPad and I am afraid to sync it with my computer.?

I have the exact same problem. I have not changed anything. This is probably a bug or something that has gone bad with Mac OS X (10.7.2). I have not found any solution for this on the web.

Why did i lose all of my sync bookmarks on my computer?

I came back to work on monday and all my bookmarks are gone. Recently synced bookmarks on new computer with old computer. Bookmarks were synced successfully...then i erased everything on old computer. Where are my bookmarks???

You should have disabled Sync on the old PC before deleting the bookmarks on that old PC.
You should have a backup on the new PC that can be restored. <br />

Any suggestions? Besides throwing my computer out!! haha
My macbook is older.. bought in.. 2009. So I realize things may not work exactly the same.

   Yeah really!
   One thing depends upon the other then nothing works or is no longer compatible.

You may have to do this several times.
Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.

Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

ICloud Control Panel 3.0 for Win8 syncs bookmarks with Safari removed

Is it true that iCloud Control Panel 3.0 no longer syncs bookmarks with Safari for Windows? According to http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759 Safari for Windows is no longer supported, only IE, FF and Chrome. I need a work around if this is true.

Unlikely..
To enable iCloud on your Windows PC (Windows 7 or 8 required), first set up iCloud on your other devices, then install the iCloud Control Panel for Windows

Ask Verizon.
You will have to activate the phone through them.

I had to format my HD, now iTunes says my iPOD is sync'd with another computer. How do I get my iPOD's music back in to the library and sync it with the computer again?

I had to format my computers hard drive. Now the iTunes thinks my iPOD is sync'd with another computer. How do I get re-sync the iPOD and computer and get my songs on the iPOD back in to the iTunes library. Thanks!

Can't tell you exactly, as it can be used to facilitate piracy and Apple blocks this sort of thing from occuring (except for itunes purchased music)
But you can find out what your looking for at iLounge, i'd suggest that method for "mixed" music from different sources, that way you get it all back.
Next time, hit the iTunes menu and backup your library to disks, only takes a few minutes and a few DVD-R's.
Good Luck

If you do, you will lose all of your information on the phone. You can only sync to 1 itunes library at a time on 1 computer.

SYNCING BOOKMARKS WITH iTUNES RATHER THAN MOBILE ME

I used to sync my bookmarks with iTunes. Now it says that my bookmarks are being synched via the Web with MobileMe. But I'm not using MobileMe, and I have the Fetch feature turned off. It says that "over the air sync settings can be changed on your iPhone," but I can't find where that can be done. I want to sync bookmarks with iTunes and not MobileMe. What do I do?
Thanks.

Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Select your MobileMe account.
Bookmarks > Off.

You will need to restore it as new. unfortunately you will lose any data not saved but you can still redownload all of your apps.

Just bought a preowned palm organizer model TX. I cannot sync it with my computer

Just bought a preowned palm organizer model TX. I cannot sync it with my computer. the handheld device has the previous owner's name. how do i change the user name on the device

Perform what is referred to as a Hard Reset. It will delete everything including the previous owner's Hotsync ID.
Check out this Palm Knowledgebase article to read about how to perform a Hard Reset.

I've had my new iPhone 6 Plus for about a month now and I'm just now syncing it with my computer to put music on it and it has been on Step 5 of 5 for hours now. I have reinstalled iTunes to see if that was the problem with no luck.
