Details

My setup: I have three instances of Firefox, which we can call Home (currently still FF29.0.1), Work (I'm not really sure, either FF29 or possibly already FF30) and Mobile (FF30). Between Home and Mobile I want to sync everything except passwords, so all available checkboxes (except for passwords) are ticked both on my desktop at home and on my mobile device. Between Home and Work, I only want to sync my add-ons and settings, so at work I've only activated the checkboxes for Preferences and Add-ons. What happened: When I returned from work, I found that history, bookmark and tab syncing had been deactivated on my desktop at home. What I expected to happen: To be able to setup individual Sync preferences for each Firefox instance, even if preferences syncing is activated.
