If you want to be able to sync your browser preferences up with other instances/devices, you’ll need to set up syncing. Right now, it’s apparently not done for you automatically.  When I first popped open my Cr-48, I was missing a lot of stuff that was in my browser on my other machine, so here is the way to get it running.

Go to your options menu under the wrench icon. In that dialog box click on Under the Hood and then Set up sync.

You’ll then be asked to login to your Google Account.

You have the choice to sync all of your data, or only certain parts. This might be useful if for example you don’t want extensions or apps following you around everywhere since they’re easy to install anyway.

If you want to keep your sync encrypted, hit the tab at the top and you’ll be able to set a passphrase.

It takes a few moments to get set up…

And then you’re good to go!
