Google Sync and XMarks--Sync Problems

Here is a tip for those of you who use Google Chrome and Firefox interchangeably....
if you set up and use Google Sync it works wonderfully across all your devices whenever you sign into Google....however if you have Xmarks also installed in Firefox for your bookmarks to be saved there is issues....when you are in Chrome and it syncs unfortunately it will sync those same set of bookmarks to Firefox and override Xmarks...a real pain!

So go into Chrome" Tools" -- "Options"  -  "Personal Stuff" and under "Sign In" go to "Advanced" and untick the box to override the syncing of "bookmarks" .

If it is real persistent and does override Xmarks in Firefox simply go into "Tools" in Firefox and under Xmarks  "synchronize now" and go to "restore" and restore it back to another date besides the day you had the sync problem...
a bit technical but you can do it....

The reason I do this is because I like Xmarks on the home computer but across my mobile devices I use everything Google...
