      So as the title says, I'm locked out and don't want to reset my data.

      I don't want to lose my bookmarks etc.

      What to do?

          @leocg - I can't remember my passphrase for my encrypted sync-data copy, and it tells me the only option is a reset. Then I'll lose everything.

            @itscalledprivacy Resetting synced data removes the data from the servers but not from your computer.

            Just in case, make sure to be logged out from sync when you do it.

              @leocg - that's the other problem. I have nothing on my computer, only my account.

                @itscalledprivacy In this case I'm afraid there's nothing much that can be done.

                    @leocg - okay, so I managed to access my account, but it won't sync.
                    In other words... it says "log in on your main device to sync" - well... I AM on my main device.

                          @itscalledprivacy I have no idea. Did you try changing password?
