Sync 1.1 no longer works, as Mozilla has shut down their sync server.
Is updating Seamonkey to use Mozilla's new sync server something that's in the
works and might be expected soon (say, the next month, rather than next year or
not at all)?
Thomas Rocek recently posted the instructions for setting up a new Sync 1.1
server, but they're way beyond my tech abilities. Is anyone aware of a publicly
available Sync 1.1 method that Seamonkey users could rely on for the duration?
Hi Bill, I wasn't familiar with Xmarks before (just looked at the web site).
Does it work with the current version of Seamonkey?
Xmarks installed easily into SM 2.26 on four computers; no conversion
necessary. All my bookmarks are synced just like they were using SM Sync.
I installed the Xmarks extension on a Chrome Browser and my bookmarks show up
there also. Haven't tried the Android version yet.
On each machine, you get a choice as to what to sync; also whether to merge the
bookmarks you've already sent to their server onto a second and third machine,
or replace them with what you've already sent to their server.
I don't see where the sync schedule can be set, but when you've added bookmarks
and are closing SM, an alert pops up asking if you want to sync them before
closing SM.
Also, do you know if it causes any problems that will mess things up (e.g.,
duplicate entries) if Seamonkey moves on up to sync 1.5?
Sorry, I have no idea about that!
