1195217 - Firefox sync changes live bookmarks to folders (40.0)

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1190131

(Firefox :: Sync, defect)

Description

[Mikko Maallikas]

Attachment: about:sync-log files

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.10; rv:40.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/40.0
Build ID: 20150807085045

Steps to reproduce:

Updated Firefox to version 40.0. for both my Ubuntu and Mac desktop.


Actual results:

After update live bookmarks changed to regular empty bookmark folders for both desktops. 

Tried to fix it by deleting live bookmarks from Ubuntu desktop and re-create new live bookmarks. New bookmarks transfered from Ubuntu to Mac but only as regular bookmark folders. After sync also Ubuntu live bookmarks changed to regular folders once again.

Sync settings are identical on both desktops (bookmarks, passwords, addons checked). Only Mac desktop seems to produce several sync-logs dated today.


Expected results:

New and old live bookmarks should transfer between desktops as unchanged.
