Why Does Sync Not Sync?

I open settings on my desktop, it only shows this device, says sync is on, and then "Connect another device"! And shows no other device. So how is Sync On if there's no other devices to sync to??
So I click on "Connect another device", I select "Already have Firefox for mobile", then a popup says "Sync Firefox on your phone or tablet", Says to open Firefox, go to menu & tap "Sign in"! Then I should scan the QR code shown. Well, there is no SIGN IN on any menu, as I get signed in automatically!
And guess what, FF on my phone says it's already synced, and was just synced again, a minute ago! WTF?????

Why doesn't my phone show up on the setting menu on my desktop? Nor is my FF sync on my Macbook Pro! What a total mess this is, and why is it so complicated to do a simple procedure?

And when I hit Connect another device, it only asks about FF on my mobile phone or pad! How then do I sync it to my laptop? Why are there no instructions for that?
