I'm poor in English.I hope I can write clearly
This extension is great and it helps me alot,but I found the function of synchronisation dosen't work when I installed the FloatNotes in a new cumputer .I can't find any notes in the ‘Notes Manager’ .
I have enabled  both the option of FloatNotes and  the Firefox Sync.what's wrong?

If you have set up your synchronization correctly, can you at least
synchronize your other data, like bookmarks?

Double check that the synchronization is enabled in the FloatNotes
preferences and trigger the synchronization process manually.

Firefox Sync itself is acting weird sometimes...

I have to confess, you are right, the synchronization is currently broken. 

I already figured out what was wrong and will provide a new version in the next couple of days.

With version 0.7.0.2, synchronization should work again.

That problem occures again.

I wana sync my notes to a notebook runnung Firefox 8.0.
Firefox sync is set up correctly and my bookmarks, tabs etc. is synced as it should be.
Only my float notes are not synced.

I can check my quota in FF/Settings/FFSync/Quota and it shows my used kb fpr bookmarks etc. but float notes = 0 kb.
EDIT: Now that I have created a new note on the new notebook, the quota of float notes is 750b (not kb).... What about my old notes? Gone?

Float Notes version is: 0.7.0.6

I will have at look at it in the next days as I'm planning to release a new version soon anyway. It could very well be that the sync API changed again. It is not easy to always keep track. As for the quota,I don't know... will keep you updated.
