How to synchronize bookmarks in Google Chrome between Ubuntu and Windows

Question

I dual boot my system with windows and Ubuntu. when i bookmark a page in Windows (in Google Chrome), it doesn't show up when i open chrome in Ubuntu. I have already logged in to the Chrome with my Google account in both OS.

Solution 1

I takes some time to synchronize bookmarks in Google accounts for some reason.

It is up to an hour or so.

Just wait a bit and you will get your bookmarks.

Solution 2

Well this is not the case at least with me. I login to Google Chrome from 4 different O/s - Windows 7, Windows 10, Ubuntu and Mac OSX. All my bookmarks are synchronized. How you installed and update Google Chrome? I followed this link

And everything is working fine for me. Try to look into the logs of Google Chrome may be it can point you something.
