Wannan tattunawa ta zama daɗaɗɗiya. Yi sabuwar tambaya idan ka na bukatar taimako.

I am having problems with my Sync and bookmarks. I synced my bookmarks before wiping the hard drive. Now when I type in my email address to restore/get back my bookmarks, the box reads "already in use" I have my sync key. I need help. Help!!!!!
