In this KB article:
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-sync-upgrade-frequently-asked-questions?as=u&utm_source=inproduct

Please add a section on how to disable the yellow bar notification by going into Preferences > Sync tab - 'Unlink Sync'.  You will no longer be able to use Sync 1.1 and you must use sign up for an account to use Sync 1.5.

Joni - do you know who could help update the article?

Hi Edwin,

I've updated the article to add this section: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-sync-upgrade-frequently-asked-questions#w_im-not-ready-to-transition-to-the-new-firefox-sync-how-do-i-turn-off-the-notification

Please let me know if you have any feedback. My UI says "Disconnect" instead of "Unlink", but I think that's because I'm on the new version of Firefox.

Edwin, can we close this one?

Let's just close this - fx41 with sync 1.1 has a link with the copy:
'Unlink this device' we're all good.
