I am getting a line at bottom of screen about Sync encountering an error. It happens on every page. What's wrong?

the line or bar at the bottom of the screen, each page as it is now, says "Sync encountered an error while syncing: Unknown error. Sync will automatically retry this action. (box with) Sync Now"
I am not aware of any changes that would cause this although I am having a problem with Hotmail in that it is keeping me at some times from emailing or forwarding email content. There was a item sent me that brought up warnings from AVG, WOT and another source but I did not open that email content or at least did not see it open as the warnings caused me to hit the "x" to get off that email.
I am not sure why I use Sync as I have not had problems before or need to check on what it does for me.
The issue with Hotmail is causing me to think more about using Thunderbird but I need to swap contacts and business connections completely at a later time this or next month.

it is a failing GPU (you have a Nividia GPU right), this is a known problem. Probably the person whom had this laptop had this problem too, before he sold it off to you.

I keep getting an error message at the bottom of my screen. Sync encountered an error while syncing. Unknown error. Sync will automatically retry this action. I keep getting the same message. What can I do ?

I have firefox 5.

It looks like your data is corrupted. Take a look to this articles and try to reset the information in your account: [[Replace your Sync information]]

Sync will not send my bookmarks over to my TC970 tablet. The desktop and history get transferred but not the bookmarks. I get a banner on my desktop that says "Sync encountered an error while syncing. Unknown error"

firefox 8. Tablet is a le Pan (TC970) Android 2.2. Have tried un-syncing and re-synching.

Can you take a look at your Sync log?
Instructions are here. If you could file a bug, that would be great; we can investigate and see if we can help you out.

A black border and semi circle have appeared on my screen of my iPhone 5. It wasn't there this morning it just appeared now a yellow tinge has appeared around the semi circle and sometimes I get a line going across my screen which then disappears

Did you already try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again? You will not lose data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches after installing new software or apps.
If this does not work, set it up as new device, explained here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
If still no luck, get it serviced by Apple or visit an Authorized Apple Service Provider next to your place and let them have a look at your device.

I keep getting "Sync encountered an error while syncing: unknown error. Sync will automatically retry this action." It keeps popping up at the bottom of my screen?

does anyone have an answer for this problem?

HT4623 I screwed up. I was trying to SYNC and something (error msg) happened. I tried to continue the SYNC and now my IPhone is dead. All I can get when I turn it on is a picture, from bottom to top, I have an WSB connector, an up arrow, and an iTunes

I screwed up. I was trying to SYNC and something (error msg) happened. I tried to continue the SYNC and now my IPhone is dead. All I can get when I turn it on is a picture, from bottom to top, I have an WSB connector, an up arrow, and an iTunes icon. I can't use the phone. And it's my only phone. What can I do to rectify this situation.

It's telling you to connect to ITunes and restore your phone. This will have to be done with a USB cable and iphone connector that came with your charger.

How do I supress the "sync encountered an error while syncing" bar? I get it every time I connect to a work VPN that is isolated from the internet.

Background: For work I routinely need to connect to a secure VPN that is completely isolated from the internet. When using it, I can only connect to the servers that reside within the network and the VPN software (Cisco AnyConnect + NAC Agent) seems to automatically redirect all http requests to external sites to a catch-all 'sorry you can't do that' page.
So while connected to the VPN, Firefox Sync doesn't work and nor do I expect it to. However, my issue is that every time I connect to the VPN, Firefox silently pops up a "sync encountered an error while syncing" error message bar at the bottom of the browser, which I have to manually close. This obviously isn't the end of the world, but having to do it all the time gets annoying so I was wondering if there was a way of suppressing that particular error message or maybe getting Sync to handle the secure VPN more gracefully.

I don't know about blocking that message, but my suggestion is to turn Sync autoconnect off, and use Sync manually.
Type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and hit Enter. <br />
Then type '''''autoconnect''''' in the Search bar at the top. <br />
'''services.sync.autoconnect''' = double-click that pref to toggle it to '''false'''.
Then to trigger a Sync manually, hit '''Sync Now''' in the Firefox menu ''(or the File menu)''.

That is precisely what my mid-2010 MacBoook Pro 13 was doing before the drive finally died after an Apple Genius rebooted it a dozen or so times. I have since read about the exact same thing happening to others, including a writer for The Atlantic magazine who had never had an issue with a Mac before. Do a back-up ASAP to make sure you don't lose anything and see about replacing the HDD. It is only about $140 for a new drive. The real issue is if you lose your data, too. So, make sure you do that back-up!

Can you try to rename (not delete!) the folder named "YOUR_CATALOG_NAME Previews.lrdata" and restart Lightroom?

Hi Wingzfan13,
Thanks for the question. Based on what you stated, it seems like you can't update the iOS device. I would recommend that you read these articles, they may be helpful in troubleshooting your issue.

I get the error message in Firefox 5 "Sync encountered an error while syncing: Unknown error. Sync will automatically retry this action."

Hello Firefox support. I just started working on a 64 bit Windows 7 machine running Firefox 5 and am constantly getting the following Sync error: "Sync encountered an error while syncing: Unknown error. Sync will automatically retry this action." I can't find an accurate solution on the web. Please help!

Exact same error message here here. Haven't checked our other systems. This one is:
* Firefox 5
* Canonical 1
* Ubuntu Linux 10.04 LTS

I set up the the sync add on and had no errors.When I sync now I get"Sync encountered an error while syncing:Firefox sync server maintenance is underway..."I have gotten this mesaage for the last 10 hours.Should I wait or is there an issue with my setup?

I just loaded Firefox onto my laptop. I set up the the sync add on and had no errors. When I hit sync now I get "Sync encountered an error while syncing: Firefox sync server maintenance is underway, syncing will resume automatically." I have gotten this message for the last 10 hours. Should I wait or is there an issue with my setup? I checked the Mozilla sync server status and it listed no issues.

There was a server out last week. see below. now everything works great. thanks for the follow up.

19:39:11 PDT --- Well, this is embarrassing. It looks like one of our
servers was down and for whatever reason we didn't notice.
It should be working now. If you still see errors, please reopen this bug.
