Unable to create a sync account

I can't create a Sync account. I have never had one and am trying to set one up so that I may sync my firefox with my android. I have followed the instructions to set one up but when I push the finish button, I don't get a window that says setup complete. I have tried several times.

You're welcome
Did you find the cause?
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
*Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

I created a sync account in 2012 and synced it periodically. In January 2014, my hardrive was reset- how do I pull in my synced info/acct on reset pc?

I created a sync account in June 2012 and synced it periodically. In early January 2014, I was having some pc issues so I backed up all my data on my pc and dropped it off to Best Buy/Geek Squads. My pc has been repaired and returned back to me today. However, it has been reset to factory settings, which meant I had to reinstall Firefox. Of course I no longer had my original recovery key so I had to choose the "no longer have my device" option so that I could recover the recovery key code. So now I am trying to pull in my synced data from the synced Firefox account and I see nothing. I know I am not doing something right. I am not trying to sync on a second device- it is technically the same device. I am just trying to pull in what was previously synced. I feel like a lot of the other forums are for pairing. It's almost as if once I logged into my Firefox account today and recovered the code- like there is a new account. I need to access my bookmarks- they are very important. Thanks!

Does your backup contain your entire old Firefox profile folder? This is a hidden folder under
C:\Users\''username''\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles
To ensure that you can view the full contents of your backup, you may need to turn on viewing of hidden files. This article has the steps: [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/show-hidden-files].
If you find the folder, one option would be to set it up as a second profile on your new installation of Firefox to access the old information. That's probably easier than fishing around among the files if it works.

When I try to create a sync account, it says that my email is already in use but I haven't set up an account. Is there any way to reset this?

I fill out all of the information to get a new sync account, but it won't let me create it because it says that my email is already in use. Is there any way to get my information or just reset the information with it?

Hi Russ!
Apparently you already configured your account but you don't have nor the key or the password. You can get the password in the [https://account.services.mozilla.com/forgot following link] but you would need the Sync Key to sync your device to the rest of your devices.
If you don't have the Sync Key the best thing you can do is to reset it, by deleting the previous account and creating a new one with the same user. You can perform this tasks from your [https://account.services.mozilla.com/ account dashboard].

I created a sync account with no problem, but then when I try to use it, it keeps telling me I have the wrong password or user name, even after I changed the password. It did this after I created a new account, too.

Every time I try to use my sync account, it informs me that "Sync encountered an error while connecting: Incorrect account name or password. Please try again." I tried changing my password. I even made a new account. It still does the same thing.

If the old ID is yours, and if your current ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

Can't create a sync account

Firefox sync was not working correctly on my laptop so I decided to delete my old account and start fresh, after trying everything I could think of to fix the problem. However, now I can't create a new account, be it with my old e-mail address or a new one. I keep getting 'Unknown Error' when trying to create a new sync account.

I'm not sure that my current profile has anything to do with it--have just tried creating a new account on a desktop that was not connected to my previous sync account.

Sync will not let me create a account. when prompted to create a password and when I hit the ok button it just flashes and the prompt box sows again asking me to create a password. how do I create a sync account when it will not even letme do so?

why does sync not let me create a account? it will not take a a new password so that I can create a new sync acct.

Hi there!
It sounds like you have a Master Password set on your Firefox profile:
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Master_password
When you try to set up a Sync account, Sync needs to access your password manager. The dialog you're seeing is asking for your Master Password, not asking to create a new password. Simply entering your Master Password should allow Sync setup to complete.
Note that you'll need to enter your Master Password in order for Sync to do its thing; it'll ask once when you launch Firefox, but it won't keep bugging you after that.
Hope this helps!

Unable to create a caldav account on iPhone 3G

Hello and thank you for looking at my problem and for any advice you may have.
I have a client that is trying to connect to his office Calendar server with his iPhone 3G running iOS 4.3.3 (not jb). The server is an XServe running 10.5.8 Server. The phone is connecting to it via the office LAN.
I was able to set up this phone for the user's personal calendar on the office server with no problem, it works fine. There is an office wide calendar that he also wants to be able to use on the phone. When I try to create the account, I enter the server address, account information, etc and click Next, it tells me that SSL is not available (correct) do I want to continue, I tell it to continue and then BOOM the Settings app closes and I am back on the Desktop. Entering Settings again I find that the account has not been created.
Now here is where it gets weird. If I go to the personal calendar account and change it's settings to use the office wide calendar settings, I am able to save this and work with the calendar without issue. If I then try to create another calendar account using his personal settings, account creation fails in the same manner as described above.
Is there a limit to the number of caldav accounts in this version of iOS? I have set up other phones (iPhone 4 running 6.0.1 and iPhone 5s running 6.0) and they all have worked fine.
Any help would be much appreciated.

If you are trying to sync via iCloud, you can share Mail, Calendars, and Contacts running Snow Leopard. Based on my experience, I don't recommend syncing Contacts - created a lot of problems with duplicates.

Unable to create an iTunes account

Unable to create a mobile account on Macbook

We have a Macbook where during the first login they chose not to create a mobile account with this particular login ID (active directory).
Now we need to allow this user to have a mobile account on the Macbook but when we try it will not create a home folder etc.
If we login with a different user it works just fine.
I notice it does not show the user in the accounts-preferences only when logged in with that ID. It also comes up with network,managed vs. managed,mobile.
Anybody have any ideas? Is there a way to remove the user ID so we can start over to create a mobile account.
I did try to create a mobile account using the preferences but it did not work. It still fails and is coming up with the "The home folder is not located etc etc" message.
Thanks

Update:
I finally found a work around in the forums. The command I used was this:
sudo
/System/Library/CoreServices/ManagedClient.app/Contents/Resources/createmobileac count
-n userid -v

Unable to Create an iTunes account (free usage or otherwise) (iPhone 3GS)

So my father and I just bought our selves iPhones to stay in touch (today is the 24th... well now 25th). I recently wanted to try to get foursquare, skype, and a few other free apps so I decided to try making me an iTunes account. We tried 3 different credit cards to try and make one but they all came back with the same issue "your credit card was declined please try another pay method."
Jump to 2 hours ago I've been trying constantly to make a Free app account, the type where you go to the store, click a free app, apply for an account and say "none." When asked for credit card information, which then allows you to download free apps only. Well using this method I get the EXACT same responce "your credit card was declined please try another pay method."
Is there currently some issue going on with the iTunes store right now?
I should note I've tried making an account through both the iPhone and my PC.

I don't know what "something" you were trying to redeem, but if it was a valid iTunes Store give, go to the main iTunes Store page (within iTunes), click on the "Redeem" link on the right side of the page, and enter in the code from your card. You'll be able to create an iTunes Store account without needing a credit card.

I have books I wish to load to an iBookstore Free Account. I am unable to create such an account because Apple's sign-up requires details of a credit or debit card even though my Apple ID specifies NO card. Wake up Apple, or authors will be off to Google

I have books which I wish to load to a free account on iBookstore. I am unable to do so because the sign-up process keeps demanding details of a credit or debit card. I am neither selling anything nor buying anything, and my Apple ID works fine with NO credit or debit card details (you just specify NONE).
I think Apple had better wake up and wake up quickly, otherwise their 'control freak' attitude is going to lead to authors going to Google - and I will be one of them! Let Apple find a way around this, I have wasted too much time already messing about with their system.

The best place to convey your thoughts to Apple is via
http://www.apple.com/feedback
In meantime, use an Aggregator or another store. Apple has not had any problem attracting books during the last 3 years and it seems unlikely their policy on this will change to accomodate you. But there is always hope...

Unable to create game center account. Keeps prompting for location and birthdate

Whenever I try to create a game center account, it loops always asking for location and birthdate. The phone says the Apple ID has not yet been used in Game Center, tap continue to setup your account, then it prompt for location and birthdate again. Any ideas how to get account setup?

I'm gettng this same message. I have been using the same Apple ID for all my iOS device, but I ended up creating a new Apple ID for my wife's iPhone. After I verified the new Apple ID, I logged out of Game Center, and entered my newly created Apple ID. Now I'm stuck in the same loop as you. Were you able to get out of it?
