Stored passwords not syncing between computers.

I'm trying to use Firefox to Syncronize data between computers. It was working, but somewhere along the way it has stopped. I now have three computers, of which I'm trying to have two of them synced together. I thought that the issue was account related, so I deleted my original account & had to create a new one (with a different e-mail address - I'd like to change that back if possible). Anyhow, now it seems as if bookmarks are synced OK, but my saved passwords are not. Given that I can't tell what the status is of a sync, it is hard for me to tell where the process is.
So, I have one computer (a Macbook) with passwords on it that I am syncing and I have another (a new Dell Laptop), that I would like to have updated.
What do I need to do to get my passwords synchronized?
Thank you,
Paul

Make sure that you are forcing syncing by pressing Sync Now in your computers and allow some time (several minutes) to have all the information sent to the server and down from the server. If this still doesn't work, follow the steps in this blogpost to create a bug:

This would be really helpful. I've seen other people having issues with passwords but I'm unable to replicate it.

  • ITunes won't sync between computers!

    I have two macs, one a late 2010 Macbook Pro that I use for University, and a Mac Mini Late 2012 that I use whilst at home.
    I buy most of my music from the Mac Mini, but when I come to listen to it on my MBP, it won't sync! It doesn't happen the other way around because today I purchased something on my MBP and it synced fine to the MM.
    I've tried all the normal proedures; turning everything on and off again, going to Store > Check for Available Downloads but still nothing! It says everything is synced up nad its not! Very annoying!
    I look forward to anyones earliest reply,
    Ash

    Correct. iTunes does not sync between computers.
    It doesn't happen the other way around because today I purchased something on my MBP and it synced fine to the MM.
    You mean it automatically downloaded.
    going to Store > Check for Available Downloads but still nothing!
    Because it has already been downlaoded.
    It says everything is synced up nad its not!
    You mean it says everything has already been downloaded (not synced).
    On both computers...
    iTunes prefs > Store.
    Tick Music under Automatic downloads.
    Now when you purchase on one, the other will automatically download (not sync) new purchases.

  • Music not syncing between pcs

    I have two pcs which are activated for homesharing, but when I buy music from Itunes store, it does not show up on both PCs in the Music library. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for the support.

    There are two ways to have music and other purchases from the iTunes Store synced between multiple computers. Make sure all computers are using the same iTunes Store account.
    Home Share Sync
    Make sure Home Sharing is turned on and working between both computers. Home Sharing is turned on when your can see the name of the other computer in the sidebar of the iTunes window. The icon will look like a house with a musical note on the side. Select the Home Share computer in the sidebar then click on the 'Settings…' button on the bottom right-hand side of the iTunes window. In the 'Home Sharing Settings' dialogue box put a checkmark in the box for each type of media you want to have synced between computers. iTunes needs to be running on both computers for the sync to occur. If iTunes is not running at the time of the purchase, sync will occur the next time iTunes is running and can connect to the other computer.
    Automatic Store Downloads
    In the iTunes preference pane select Store on the toolbar. Put a checkmark in the box for the the media types you want to have automatically downloaded from the iTunes Store. Whenever purchases occur on one computer iTunes will automatically download the media to all computers and iOS devices sharing the same iTunes Store account. This method only works for Music, App and Book purchases.

  • My icalendar is not syncing between my mac and iphone

    My icalendar is not syncing between my mac and iphone.  Everything for icalendar and icloud is turned on for all devices.  PLEASE HELP

    Settings>icloud.  Assuming you have already set up the connection to icloud (ID, password), then turn on Calendars on that screen.
    If they don't appear, then log into icloud.com using a computer's browser and look at the calendars page.  If empty, then you are not syncing calendars from your device to icloud.  If there, then be sure Calendars is turned on in Settings>iCloud or System Preferences>iCloud.

  • Sent mail does not sync between devices

    My sent mail does not sync between devices. For example, if I send an email from my Iphone it does not show in my sent box on the MAC mail (postage stamp). If I send mail from MAC mail it does not show on my phone.  But if I go to Yahoo (mail) I can see all sent mail.
    What am I doing wrong? Is there a setting that allows them to snch sent mail??

    From reports on this site, Yahoo mail doesn't work reliably with Mail. The following steps may help.
    Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
    Back up all data. That means you know you can restore the Mail database, no matter what happens.
    Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData/Envelope Index
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    A Finder window will open with a file selected. Move the selected file to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have names that begin with "Envelope Index". Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
    Log out and log back in. Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is corrupt and that Mail has to quit. Click OK.
    Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the file you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

  • Any way to sync between computers?

    I can't sync my Tungsten E2 to my Vista 64 computer.  But I can sync to my XP Pro computer (32).  Is there a way to sync between the computers?  Or to use the files on the XP on the Vista 64?
    Thanks,
    Chas

    You cannot sync between computers, What can be done though, to get the data from your E2 to the Vista 64 bit PC is to sync by bluetooth. You can check in your device manager to see if the PC already has bluetooth installed. If it does just find the bluetooth port on your PC, put the E2 a couple of inches away from the PC and in hotsync manager choose to hot sync by bluetooth. If you don't have bluetooth already installed on your PC you will need to purchase a USB bluetooth dongle, install the drivers that come with it and then sync. The first time you sync it could take a little while depending on how much data you have on the device.  Hope this helps.....

  • HT204053 calanders do not sync between ipad and iphone

    I have my wife's hand me down 1st generation Ipad with 4G and a 4Gs iphone but my calanders do not sync between the phone and the ipad.
    My PC has icloud installed and turned on and my ipad  and iphone have the cloud turned on.
    All three pieces have current software.

    If you mean photo stream, go to Settings>iCloud on both devices and sign into iCloud account with the same Apple ID, then turn photo stream to On.  After that, new photos added to the camera roll will be uploaded to photo stream when the camera app is closed, it is connected to wifi and has at least 20% battery life remaining.  They will appear on your other device in the my photo stream album.

  • Numbers documents do not sync between I pad and iPhone

    Updated to io6 and latest numbers update. Documents can be changed an backed up independently to icloud on each device, but do not sync between devices.

    The notes on the App Store indicate that Notability won't work with Mavericks and iOS 8 iCloud Drive. They recommend waiting until Yosemitie is released to upgrade to iCloud Drive.

  • Emails not sync between devices.

    My email do not sync between my Macbook and my Galaxy S4. For example if I read an email or delete one on my phone, it won t show on the emails in my Macbook (I use the built in app). I have to redo the action...
    Anyone knows why it is doing this or what to change?
    Thank you.

    What mail provider do you have, and is it set up as IMAP in both places? POP mail will not sync.

  • Notes does not sync between iPhone 6 plus and iPad Air

    The Notes app does not sync between iPhone 6 plus and iPad Air. These used to sync before when I had an iPhone 4. I have been trying to troubleshoot this for about an hour now, so all the basics such as deciding on a default Notes account, to turning on and off iCloud functions for both devices, as well as signing out of of my apple account on both devices, then back in. Nothing seems to be working - is this a fault in the current iOs?? It's driving me nuts.

    You can't pair iOS devices.
    that's not how continuity works.

  • IMessage not syncing between MacBook and iPhone

    Normally, my MacBook Pro (OSX 10.4.9 w/ standard hardware) and my iPhone (iPhone 5 running iOS 7.1.2) sync iMessages perfectly. Recently, I turned my MacBook off for the weekend and was messaging solely through my iPhone. When I turned my MacBook on again and launched iMessage, I noticed that the conversations were not synced between the computer and phone.
    I've already tried the fix suggested here, and I got the notification, but the conversations didn't update.
    All messages sent since the MacBook was turned on again have synced between both the phone and computer, but messages sent during the weekend only appear on my phone (the device used to send them). Any suggestions?

    Hi,
    You are leaving conversation "open" (still displayed) in Messages when you Quit ?
    If you closed off all the chats and conversations in Messages you will need to re-connect to the people involved for the app to then display the previous part of the conversation.

  • Photos not syncing between Mac and iPhone since update to Photos on Mac.

    Ever since I updated to Photos on my Late 2013 macbook pro retina, photos are not syncing between it and my iPhone 6. Both are updated to the most recent software update. Photo stream is on. Does anyone have this problem or know a solution?

    You will have to go the the Photos tab in iTunes when you connect the iPhone.  Then reset the photo sync options.  They were reset with the upgrade to use iCloud by default, but you can change the settings back to sync folders, just like before.
