Hello, I have two PCs and since I have my second computer, my bookmarks are not syncing. I checked the bookmarks' box in the sync options but it still does not work. In my second PC I tried the option Import bookmarks from other browser and I choose Chrome. The imported bookmarks are displayed in my first PC but in the second PC is not showing anything. This is very strange.... Sorry for my English

Oh sorry. I am such an idiot. I never use the bookmarks displayed on Library>Bookmarks. I always use the toolbar and I realised that they were already imported. It is just that the "Show bookmarks toolbar" and "Toolbar bookmarks" options are unchecked by default. Thanks for your help

On the computer that is not receiving the sync,

We need to look at the sync logs. Type about:sync-log<enter> in the address bar.

Open the last file created and Copy its contents Now Paste it into this forum.

If the file is too large;


Open a text/word program and load the file. Left-click once. Now <Control> A to highlight everything, then <Control> C to copy it.

Next, have your web browser go to; https://pastebin.com/

Paste <Control> P the content of the file in the window. Note: On the bottom, fill out the boxes as best you can.

Now press Create A New Paste. The page will reload. Copy the new web address, and post it here.

I am seeing things like: secure storage is locked trying to read user declined to unlock master-password

Provide the Master Password and try again.
