The error is still there after updating to the new beta channel I attached a image of where the new error displays

I assume that only one of the Sync developers could answer this question.

Maybe ask Kevin (kbrosnan) or another dev on IRC.

Yep, so this went away when I used the previous password, I wonder if this has to do with resetting passwords. I am looking for help here to see if there are other steps to reproduce this. With out clear steps, its not useful to a sync developer.
