Marsha Borski (ID: 000000f88bdaa3d4) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 06/08/2016 disappointing! downloaded and installed on my laptop (win 10) and iPad (iOS 9.3.2). From Google Chrome Settings\Advanced sync settings, chose Sync everything, Clicked OK. When I select Options, it still shows, Date Last Synced as Not Started Yet.

Ryan Bose (ID: 00000021ba28e446) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 06/05/2015 Does not work at all. My Chrome browser shows the extension has been downloaded and is enabled, but when I try to sync on my BB Classic with OS 10, it just keeps telling me to download the extension on my computer. Extremely ANGRY!!!!!!!
