Cannot sync neither Firefox nor its extension

more options

I encountered two problems that seem to be connected. My Firefox Sync is unable to sync passwords and extensions across my two computers (bookmark syncing is working). At the same time, I cannot get my Zotero extension to sync its data across computers.

I suspect these problems are interconnected. I am using Win 8.1 standard settings, Avast antivirus, newest version of Firefox.

Please could anyone help?
