How to Sync
Read It Later can sync your list to all of your computers and devices. All you need to do is to set the Firefox extension to sync with your account.
1. Open your reading list and click the options button (cog icon)
2. Select the account tab
3. Set your account
If you are already logged into an account it will say 'Logged in as: [username]' at the top.
To make sure other computers sync correctly, make sure all of your computers show the same username.
If the username is wrong, click the logout button and relogin to your account.
If you do not have an account already, click sign up (You just need to set a username and password, nothing else). After creating an account, you can use the login button on your other computers to put them into sync.
4. Resyncing
If your list falls out of sync, you can right click the sync icon at the top of your
reading list and select 'full sync'. This will resync your entire list.
