_Go to your Owncloud installation <https://myowncloud/remote.php/mozilla_sync> and accept the SSL Certificate
_Open about:config
_Create: services.sync.username <string> the value should be a hash not the username itself. (You only need the hash if the
sync was setup with a pre FF29, if you start from scratch the string doesn't matter)
You can look this up in an older browser or in the logs of your Owncloud server!!
_Go to: Preferences -> Sync -> Setup Firefox sync (you should see the old UI now)
'I Have an Account'
'I don't have the device with me'
'Account' - again use the hash NOT the actual username!
'Password' - ...
'Server' - https://myowncloud/remote.php/mozilla_sync/
'Recovery Key' - Get the right key from an older browser, you can find it in the sync settings
If nothing happens on the 'Next' button, restart your browser and start over.
