I have used Firefox sync for a long time now, in both Firefox 3 and now, in Firefox 4. In Firefox 3, there were never any problems encountered when I tried to sync. Now, in Firefox 4, every time it tries to sync an error message bar appears. It has not synced since I first installed Firefox 4 when it firs came out as the full (non-beta) version. I only use Firefox sync as a means to backup my data, and don't have it syncing with another computer or device.

Why does it keep having an error syncing?

It seems that the same version of FF (4.0.1) on Windows XP is working fine. I also have a Vista computer and sync did not work earlier, but now seems to work more often than not. My Win 7 computer, however is refusing the sync and has done so for over a week now. Very disappointing.
