[sync-services-developers] Safari syncing problem as well

[Lucien W. Dupont]

I haven't seen an issue like this, however I've only written code  
that syncs contacts.

Have you tried a really simple test set of data? (like 1 url in  
safari, and another one in your app).

I also found that during development, I needed to 'reset' sync  
services, I did this by doing the following:

- make sure to quit SyncServer and the UI background app (I forget  
exactly what it's called, but you'll notice it in the process list).
- then delete the contents of the folder at ~/Library/Application  
Support/SyncServices/

The obvious warnings apply, but that will cause Sync Services to be  
fresh and clean, and ready to go.

I also wrote some test code on a debug menu to unregister my client  
(unregisterClient: on ISyncManager). This causes you to look like a  
new client the next time you sync.

I hope that helps a bit, reply if not and we should be able to figure  
it out.
