Synchronisation not working on Opera for Android

Good Morning All
I have Opera for Android installed on my Amazon Fire Tablet HD 8 (10th generation 2020) but it will not sync to my desktop Opera for Windows 10.
Both versions are up to date and show that "sync is on" on both devices.
I have a Lenovo laptop running the latest Opera for Windows and the sync is working OK on that.
The tablet is Android 9 with Fire OS 7.3 and the Opera for Android version is 68.2.3557.64219.
Both ad-blocker and data savings are enabled on the tablet.
I have signed in to my Opera account on all devices and selected 'connect' on them all.
Hope someone can help me solve this.
Regards,
Roy.

@daddybear And would be the problem? Not working is too generic

Very sorry ! - Brain fade !!
To be specific:-
Synchronisation advanced settings on Desktop Opera for Windows are :-
Bookmarks (inc Speed Dials),
History
Settings.These do synchronise with the Lenovo laptop on Opera for Windows but not with the Fire Tablet on Opera for Android.
Hope this is better info. Let me know if it still isn't enough.
Sorry again.
Regards,
Roy.

No new Bookmarks have been synchronised to the tablet for about a month and there have only been a small number of very random History entries on various days since my last housekeeping clearout of History on 8th April - despite many entries on a daily basis relating to usage of the desktop computer.
Haven't changed any settings recently so can't check those. -

@daddybear Go to opera://sync-internals/ and check on the Type Info board on the right if everything is running fine.

Screenshots of Desktop Opera and Opera for Android.
Highest 'Total Entries' is the desktop one.
Don't understand a word of it !! - but I'm sure you do.

@daddybear That's the one of Opera for Android? It seems fine, that's strange that you can't see your bookmarks.

Sorry leocg there should have been two screenshots - the one with Bookmarks total 1903 is the desktop (Opera for Windows).
The screenshot here with Bookmarks total 1899 and live 1498 is the tablet ( Opera for Android).
You can see I am not very computer literate - please forgive.!!

@daddybear It seems fine.
Did you try logging out and logging in again?

I am not too sure how to log out just from the Opera Android app alone, so I just switched off the tablet completely and then switched back on and re-opened Opera.
I had entered a new bookmark on the desktop Opera whilst the tablet was off but this did not appear on the Android Opera when I switched back on - so no change there.
Have attached a screen shot of the Android Opera menu in case it might help you. Don't know why it refers to 'Guest' in the top corner as well as confirming that the sync is on ?
I have already logged in to my Opera account on both the desktop and tablet and clicked the 'connect' button on both devices.

@daddybear You logout from Opera for Android in the same place where you've logged in.

@daddybear What that screenshot of an Amazon page has to do with the problem?

Hello! After quitting Opera android - sync is paused every time.
I have to login to synchronize. -
