Set up sync on new mac air to work with existing desktop G5; sync enabled but nothing happens. both machines are running FF31.0 and mavericks.
Existing mac G5 desktop running Mavericks 10.9.4 and FFox 31.0. Just got a new mac air running same OS and FFox versions. Set up sync on the new air and it said "Sync enabled. Firefox will begin syncing momentarily" and nothing happens. Ever. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox on the laptop several times. Have disconnected and reconnected several times. Same thing. Any ideas? Thanks!

- Do you have cookies enabled?
- How do I turn on sync logs:
- Open about:config and turn on: services.sync.log.appender.file.logOnSuccess and services.sync.log.logger.engine.bookmarks
- Restart Firefox and look at: about:sync-log
- Logs and error messages will be located here
pastebin.mozilla.org is handy, please set the expiration date to more than a day.
