XMarks Bookmarks Not Updating.

[Techno22]

I have XMarks bookmarks synced on 2 machines.
One machine keeps up to date perfectly.
XMarks on the other machine does not update.
When I try to sync and update the process just
keeps going on forever or crashes.
It is possibly corrupt and needs to be reinstalled,
but I am not sure how to do that, if that is whats needed.
Everything is intact and up to date on the first machine.

Afraid it didn't work.
When I clicked on Download Now it just downloaded an
add on for Firefox which I already had installed.
I tried syncing XMarks again when that installed, as it was
still showing last sync as 13 May 2012.
However, as always, XMarks crashed again.
On the sync page, not the website, there are items listed restore and
run set up wizard.
I am wondering if I should try running one or both of those.

Hi caperjack.
Success!
I took a chance on running the set up wizard
and everything is back again and fully updated.
Great to have it all back.
Many thanks for your help.
