sync settings only synchronises the settings that you have applied using
Lightroom. You ought to shoot raw rather than jpeg - raw does not commit you
to anything in-camera.

I would recommend you use the white balance pipette thing to find the colour
value of one of the whites in the photo you like, then apply the setting
manually to the corresponding area of the photo you don't like. Because
you've shot in jpeg you've lost a lot of room to manoeuvre though, depending
on how different the values are right now.

In the Develop module you can use the Before / After view to see the effect
of your editing on the current picture.

Congratulations! They all look like Winston Churchill when they're born -
he'll grow out of it, don't you worry.
