unknown error when syncing large amount of bookmarks

I have several thousands of bookmarks but wasn't able to sync them. I always receive the error message: "Sync encountered an error while syncing: Unknown error. Sync will automatically retry this action."

In order to solve the problem several times I reset the remote data but always receive the same error appears after retrying.

Also I exported the bookmarks and re-imported them (which replaced the existing bookmarks). Still the same problem.

Any ideas how to solve the problem?

Hi Janjan,

It may be a bug that corrupts your data. Please, fill a bug following this instructions: https://philikon.wordpress.com/2011/06/13/how-to-file-a-good-sync-bug/

In general bookmarks are not the largest part of the Synched data (History takes a larger piece of the storage).
