W10 settings will not sync

I have a desktop (Dell) and a Surface Pro 3 - both on Windows 10. I have the syncing setting under My Account on both machines onto ON. However, no syncing occurs between the two machines! Anybody facing the same issue? is this a bug? is there a solution?
Thanks

Please ignore if you have already done this but...have you verified your MS accounts on both the devices?

Nope, logging in and verifying are two different things, though it follows after the logging in part. To verify, go to settings >> accounts >> your account. There will be a small link called "verify". Click that and proceed to verify your account on the machine.

Thank you - I followed the path suggested on both machines, but I don't see the link about "verify". What I see is "Manage my Microsoft account", and "Sign in with a local account instead"
