Try to delete the signedInUser.json file in the Firefox profile folder and delete the Weave folder (Sync was formerly named Weave). If that isn't enough then delete the prefs.js files to reset all prefs and maybe also delete the compatibility.ini file to reinitialize the profile.

You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:

Hi jgudites, This is strange, was the older account created on the old Firefox Sync? If not remove the account from the settings and restart Firefox, I saw this before in the three bar menu, it just needs a restart.
