I've got one problem with Chrome sync: I can't delete anything. It's like... merging everything from the past, to the latest minute. Everything.

If I delete the applications I've tried (like offline GMail), it'll install them on the other PC too. (Or if I remove Chrome and re-sync).

Is there a way to remove something from the Chrome sync?
(Except erasing everything... I don't really want to start saving my passwords and stuff again.)

I was able to solve my issues by cleaning up the settings on one "master" chrome instance, setting everything the way I wanted it to be. Then, I went to Google Dashboard and cleared all Chrome Sync data from there. It takes a few minutes, refresh until it says everything is empty ("Nothing to see here"), go ahead and sign in to sync on Chrome. Now everything should be good. Just try not to add stuff you dont want from now on, like syncing to your account on an instance of Chrome which has a bunch of settings you do not want.

To delete sync data from chrome is easy you have to actually Delete sync data from Google Dashboard.

Just go here and delete sync data. this might take a some time.

Try to sync again, login again in chrome with your google data

if you hit the configuration-wrench, then options, then private you will see a section concerning login, if you hit 'Extended' or 'Advanced' (i dont use the english version) in that section you will get a small window where you can select which data shall be synchronized.

that 'should' help. you might have to do that on all machines that are connected to your google-account, i am not sure about that. play around a bit.
