Firefox 14.0.1 Sync constantly spews "Incorrect account name or password"
I had the same problem with Firefox 13. I have deleted my Sync account and reset my Sync account.
When I first set up Sync, Sync works for that session. As soon as I exit Firefox and restart I can never Sync again, instead getting "Incorrect account name or password." Both account name and password are correct.
I get the same behavior if I create Sync in Firefox Safe Mode (Add-ons Disabled).
It looks like most folks are not encountering this problem. Must be something about me.

Good tip, dumdidadida. I posted my sync-log.
It all seems to be going well until

Any update on this? I'm having the same problem. It started yesterday. Today I upgraded to Mac FF 15.0.1 but the problem persists. I can correct it by going to Preferences - Sync, clicking "Update" and entering my password (yes, the same password that Sync keeps telling me is incorrect). But I've had to do this twice today, and it's getting old fast.
