Firefox Sync - Unexpected error

[GKnight]

Running FF 61.0.2 on a laptop that I had not used for a while (it had really old FF version that I upgraded to the latest one). I noticed that sync was not working after the update, so I disconnected the sync account and tried to connect again. But upon trying to log in, I get "Unexpected error" message. What should I do?

Update:

Tried to log in to FF Sync from one of my working computers (save version of FF), using this link: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/accounts/. Got "Unexpected error" as well. Wondering if something could be wrong with my account? The Sync continues to work on that computer, I just can't log in to the account or manage the account from the Settings page.

Yep,
Now, Mozilla Engineers are looking into the problem.

@ Alice0775, thanks, I did check the service status before I posted and everything was green. Looks like they updated the status since. I really picked the wrong time to work on that laptop

I was having the same problem all day yesterday until evening UK time. I posted on the Mozilla support forums.

All good now, seems like it was fixed yesterday.

@ Alice0775 - off-topic. Your screen name looks familiar, are you the author of the "Go Parent Folder" extension? It worked great for me for years, thanks! Too bad can't use it with Quantum....
