In my office computer i set up sync and came home to get the office bookmarks and all my passwords, when I try to connect it gives me a 12 digit code. I took the screenshot and next day went office to put the same code in Add a device but it says invalid code. Is it because the home computer is turned Off? or we have to do it instantly, I mean online? The key which i got from sync is no use. I don't know when I will use it and where? Do any body explain me how to use it?

You need to use the SyncKey from the first PC that you set up with Sync, when you "add a device" with the 2nd PC.
