Firefox sync error server incorrectly configured
The very first time I loaded firefox on my laptop (which i bought only a couple months ago) the syncing worked just fine.
After i dont know how much time i started getting errors that the syncing was failing. I tried to reconfigure the syncing properties but started getting the error server incorrectly configured. I scoured the net looking for answers following all the troubleshooting that I could find.
One thing I notice is that when i choose I have an account it is supposed to load a key that i can use on my already synced devices but that never actually populates and it immediately kicks me to the user name password and sync key screen. This issue remained throughout the duration of all the troubleshooting below. Additionally I cant even create a new sync account on that pc as it fails everytime.
I have done the following in a effort to resolve this issue.
I created a new sync account using one of my other pcs I added a pc that was never on the sync account to it to verify it does it fact sync i uninstalled firefox 4 separate times deleting all the folders and even as far as the registry keys i tried using a lan connection vs wifi i updated windows
My computer; I have a lenovo ideapad with windows 7 and 8 gigs of ram with a amd processor

One addition note: in my own situation, I checked my about:config and saw my sync server's URL (https://scl2-sync42.services.mozilla.com/ ). I entered it into my address bar and got the following message: "server issue: database is not healthy" (quotes were included) I've seen no mention of such a phrase in a Google search, so I assume that no one else has reported any such thing.
Going into my about:config, I deleted the URL and it synced just fine!
