I do not have my sync key for Firefox Sync how do I recover it?

I am trying to set up Firefox Sync on a new pc and it is asking for my sync key which I do not have. Is there a way to reset or recover it?

I can't inspect the sync key on the computer where I first installed sync, becaause the hard drive died and I had to install Linux instead of Windows. I was able to save my user data; what folder would it be in? Can I figure it out from recovering a profile?

Significance of sync key for a Sync Bo

Hi,
What is meant by the sync Key in MI Client application. How is it used to identify a particular sync BO instance.
Is it the same as that of the key field selected in the syncbo mapping.
If the syncbo has multiple key fields what would be the sync key in the application
Regards

Hi Raja,
<<<1>>>
Anyway u will not have any difficulty to find out the SyncKey. It is coming as the first field of the SyncBO instance ,whether it is an item instance or header instance.
just go throught this..
For modifying one syncbo instance ,
in the meRepMeta.xml file corresponding to that SyncBo , allowModify="true".This must be satisfied.
For modifying one syncbo instance , u can do it like described below..
Here u must need the sync key of the header .u have to find out this sync key using one of the standard methods(first entry of a row is sync key of that sync bo instance).
Then to modify the header instance .
1) u can use the standard method modifyRowInDB . here the input parameters are SyncBo name , Sync Key , Value and index of the Column. But the limitation of this method is ,if u have more than one field to modify , then u have to use this method inside the loop. In this method , we are explicitely calling the commit() method . So during looping if one of the modification fails for particular sync bo instance , then we have to manually do the rollback for the previous transactions.
we can change the method like this..
public void modifyHeaderOfSyncBo(String syncBoName,String syncKey,String headerFieldNames[],String headerFieldValues[])throws SmartSyncException, PersistenceException
SyncBo syncBo = getSyncBoInstance(syncBoName, syncKey);
SmartSyncTransactionManager transactionManager;
 transactionManager = dataFacade.getSmartSyncTransactionManager();
 if (!transactionManager.isTransactionStarted())
 transactionManager.beginTransaction();
 for (int c = 0; c < headerFieldNames.length; c++) {
 setHeaderFieldValue(syncBo, headerFieldNames[c], headerFieldValues[c]);
//Commit the transaction
transactionManager.commit();
To modify the Item Instance
In two ways
1) If we know the sync key of the header and there is only one item instance.
Here using the header Sync key , we have to find out the SyncBo instance -->> then find out the item instance / instances
-->> then modify the item.
public void modifyItemOfSyncBo(String syncBoName,String headerSyncKey,String itemName,String itemFieldNames[],String itemFieldValues[])throws SmartSyncException, PersistenceException
SyncBo syncBo = getSyncBoInstance(syncBoName, headerSyncKey);
Row [] itemRows = getItemInstances(syncBo,itemName);//this is the standard method.
// itemRows[0] is the one and only item instance
SyncBoDescriptor sbd =
 descriptorFacade.getSyncBoDescriptor(syncBoName);
RowDescriptor rd = sbd.getRowDescriptor(itemName);
SmartSyncTransactionManager transactionManager;
 transactionManager = dataFacade.getSmartSyncTransactionManager();
 if (!transactionManager.isTransactionStarted())
 transactionManager.beginTransaction();
 for (int c = 0; c < itemFieldNames.length; c++) {
 FieldDescriptor fdDesc = rd.getFieldDescriptor(itemFieldNames[c]);
 setItemFieldValue(fdDesc, itemRow[0], itemFieldValues); // this method is given below
 transactionManager.commit();
2) If we know the Sync key of the item instance.
 Here what u have to do is find out the particular sync bo item instance and then modify as mentioned above.
Here we know the Sync Key of the item instance ,so here we will get the exact item row instance.So after retrieving the item row instance just modify this item row instance with new values as mentioned above.
This method is for setting values in item instance.Just follow this method
 private void setItemFieldValue(FieldDescriptor fd, Row item, Object value)
 throws SmartSyncException, PersistenceException {
 BasisFieldType bft = fd.getFieldType();
 // integer oprator
 if (bft == BasisFieldType.N) {
 NumericField nf = item.getNumericField(fd);
 if (nf != null) {
 BigInteger ii = new BigInteger(value.toString());
 // nf.setValue(ii);
 item.setFieldValue(fd, ii);
 // charactor operator
 if (bft == BasisFieldType.C) {
 CharacterField cf = item.getCharacterField(fd);
 if (cf != null) {
 // cf.setValue(newValuestoString());
 item.setFieldValue(fd, value);
 // decimal operator
 if (bft == BasisFieldType.P) {
 DecimalField df = item.getDecimalField(fd);
 if (df != null) {
 if (value.equals(""))
 value = "0";
 BigDecimal bd = new BigDecimal(value.toString());
 // df.setValue(bd);
 item.setFieldValue(fd, bd);
 if (bft == BasisFieldType.D) {
 DateField df = item.getDateField(fd);
 if (df != null) {
 if (value.equals("")) {
 Date syDatum = new Date(System.currentTimeMillis());
 value = syDatum.toString();
 Date dat = Date.valueOf(value.toString());
 item.setFieldValue(fd, dat);

2. How is the syncbo organized in the mobile device. What is the significance of rows?
Does each row represent one instance of syncbo.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Ur understanding is correct. Data is organized in the form of header and item.
One Header instance can have 0 , one or more item instances.
I dont know , how exactly that link is maintained in bw HEADER and ITEM instance. Because i could see only this SYNC_KEY field in the instances.
I think it might be handled by the SmartSync Framework itself.
<<<<<<
For example each work order would be a row in the work order syncbo.
The fields declared in the getlist bapi wud be part of header and fields in the Getdetail bapi be the items.
>>>>>>
Number of rows returned by the GETLIST BAPI Wrapper actually represents the HEADER instances in the SmartSync.
We may have 0 , one or more ITEM instances for particular HEADER instance.
(During Sync , First GETLIST collects all HEADER instances . Then looping though each HEADER instance , corresponding GETDETAIL is executed).
<<<<<<
if Getdetail bapi consists of fields from different tables, how are these mapped to the item.
>>>>>>
I didnt get ur question exactly.
Anyway... ,,
For creating ITEM tables for GETDETAIL , we have to DEFINE one structure , which contain the fields from all tables.
This structure is including as a TABLE parameter of ur GETDETAIL Wrapper. And u will be filling values in these fields that are present in ur STRUCTURE which is included as a TABLE param .
While Creating SncBOs using SyncBO Builder , u are mapping ur required fields. Only these fields are visible in the client device. Depending upon the
ugage (i meant whether CREATE Wrapper , MODIFY , DELETE ) , u can create , modify and Delete these instances.
Refer these links also .. I have already given some sample codes in these forums.... refer these .. In the generated code itself , some null pointer exceptions are not handled.
In this sample code , that is handled..

I have followed ALL instructions for Firefox Sync and keep getting "Unexpected Error" when I try to log in on desktop.

1) have refreshed Firefox - doesn't help
2) have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox - doesn't help
3) have updated ALL other machines to current version Firefox - they are syncing fine, doesn't help this machine
Any suggestions?

No. I cannot log into an account. I cannot create a new account. I cannot Sync anything. I get the same sequence of events on two different machines: 1) I enter my info and hit return, 2) the little circle spins like something is happening, 3) within 10-15 seconds a red bar appears that says "Working", and 4) within another 10-15 seconds the red bar reads "Unexpected Error."
This same sequence also happens on a BRAND NEW laptop I just brought home from work yesterday and installed Firefox for the first time.
Could this be something with my home network settings?
p.s. I am the question originator... somehow in the process of implementing previous suggestions my old profile was deleted
********************** UPDATE at 12:57pm Thursday
This HAS to be something with my network settings at home. I am now at the office where Sync is working just fine on my work desktop and the BRAND NEW work laptop where I was getting the error messages when I tried this at home.
Any suggestions on where to look?

I keep getting dialog box saying " The itunes Library file cannot be saved. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation" I am the only user on this computer and only one library! how do i change access privileges please?

hi I keep getting the dialog box " The iTunes Library file cannot be saved. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation"
How do i amend this as i only have one account and one library. I cannot save new work or delete duplicate files

A belated reply, as the problems itunes has have discouraged me from using it much. If you uncheck the "read only" box, it doesn't stay that way! Next time you use it, the box comes up checked.
I'm still having that problem, even when I open iTunes as administrator.
I've yet to see the answer to this problem. I use itunes mostly to download audiobooks, and I'm ready to download more, and want to save them!

IPod Classic 80GB - "iTunes library cannot be saved you do not have enough access privileges for this operation" It says it has synced but it hasn't. Help please I am not very tech minded

iPod Classic 80GB. Message reads ' iTunes library cannot be saved you do not have enough access privileges for this operation'. It says it has synced but it hasn't. Please help, I am not very tech minded.

See this article about troubleshooting the error message regarding access privelages. It may be preventing your iTunes library from being able to save/retain music you have recently imported to it, which may explain why no new content is being added to your device.

HT1386 I get an error message when I try to sync my iPod touch - "you do not have enough access privileges for this operation"

I recently installed a new hard drive on my PC, downloaded iTunes, updated the software on my iPod touch and now I get this error message when I try to sync: "you do not have enough access privileges for this operation." It never did this before, whether it's the upgrade in software or something in iTunes, but it's very frustrating, since I'd like to add more things to my iPod.

I'm getting an error that says "The iPhone "------" cannot be synced. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation." Everything will sync but the music. I am an administrator and all the files are organized. How do I sync my phone?

I cannot sync my iTunes library or any playlists to my iPhone due to a message that reads "The iPhone "-----" cannot be synced. You do not have enough access priviledges for this operation. I also have music on my iPhone that will not sync to my iTunes library. Any way to sync the two together?

I have just installed itune on a windows 8 OS and am am trying to sync my iphone but it cannot import photos and come up with the error message "you do not have enough access privileges for this operation"

Hey there Opal4,
It sounds like you are unable to use iTunes due to this error message about not having enough access privileges. According to the following article you may need to change the permissions on the file directly:
These messages occur if permissions are incorrect on your designated music folder or on a folder inside your designated music folder. Permissions are settings that determine who can read, write to, or execute a file or folder on your computer. Every file and folder on your hard disk has an associated set of permissions.
Example: If permissions are correct on your Music folder, but incorrect on the U2 folder inside your Music folder, you would be able to add other music to your iTunes library, but not that new U2 album.
