Mulongo oyo etiyamaki na archive. Tuna motuna mosusu soki osengeli na lisalisi

I have just gotten an Android - Motorola by Verizon. I downloaded FireFox as my browser but am still fighting with Google over that! LOL! Well, I always use FireFox on my computer and want to sync it to my phone. I set up an account but while it went through, I didn't get a recovery key. My phone is showing a different code from my sync code which I just learned changes every time I hit the sync button! My phone says I must provide the recovery key before it will put the connection thru. I use Win XP and FireFox 9.01 Thank you!

Start with this:

Then this:

Then:

Probably best to setup sync on a desktop / laptop before setting it up on a mobile device. All devices sync to the Firefox Sync server, not directly between devices.
