I'm returning to Firefox after becoming thoroughly frustrated with Google Chrome. I logged into the last version of Firefox i had used (Nightly 29), synced my old stuff to the most recent version of Nightly (37a1), unlinked that device from the old Sync, restarted Firefox, created a New Sync login with my email address ([email protected]), and waited for the verification email. None received. Reequested that i be resent three times. Still nothing. No emails from Mozilla/Firefox in junk email or Office 365 spam filter for my domain.

I see others have experienced issues with creating a new Sync account as well. Please advise how I can resolve this issue and return to Firefox on all my devices asap!

Thanks, Jim

Can you access that account via https://accounts.firefox.com/settings ?

Have you tried to request a verification email again recently?

Just checked in with the Firefox Accounts team and they did say there were some email failures recently - but should be working now.

Thanks for your patience
