'Opera Turbo' enabled in the main menu ?, if so, disable it.
New Speed Dial

I really don't like it, and for one big reason:

A lot of the pages in my speed dial don't set a favicon. This is true at home to some extent, but especially at work where I have internal pages or HTML files on network shares in my speed dial. With the OLD speed dial, I can quickly figure out which site is which, and the page TITLE is shown prominently if two sites look too similar. With the new speed dial, all I get is a meaningless icon with a snippet of the URL. This does NOT help distinguish between two sites.

It's even worse when two sites have the SAME favicon. For example, I have two separate Google Groups sites in my speed dial. The new look is useless for that.

I LIKE the look and feel. But replacing thumbnails and text with icons is not helpful at all. For now there is a "return to the old speed dial" button, but it seems like something not planned to be supported indefinitely.

PLEASE provide a setting to bring the thumbnails back to the new speed dial, or at least support the old speed dial for as long as you stick to the "icons only" fad in the new speed dial.

I once used Netscape too. I dropped it because IE took over - it was faster, nicer and more compatible.
Then I used IE for many versions, but (almost) dropped it for Opera - Opera was faster, nicer and almost compatible. And customizable 🙂 For few incompatible sites I kept using IE.

Now what? I do not like Firefox. I hate google. I have played with couple of browsers lately - no one is faster than old Opera, no one is handy. Maybe I should switch to IE again? Not that customizable, but somehow not that bad either. I know I know, this all is very subjective. Well, for me this subjectivity matters very much 🙂

I'm trying to get used to new Opera. I can't say anything bad about compatibility (except IDcard support - for this I need IE or Chromium), I like extensions world - but it doesn't feel that snappy and handy as older Operas. Sure I miss some options, currently not solvable even using extensions. And it looks foreign on my old'n'good unsupported XP 😉

What I really wanted to say...
leushino, stop your senseless praising of new Opera and calling old Opera users names. With such postings you make more bad than good for Opera community.

Curiously, if I mask Opera 12.14 as IE, I don't get the 403 error page, instead I get an https security block message involving security protocols that don't line up. All other Opera IDs and maskings cause the 403 error message. I wonder if this all involves changes pushed to the browser or made at the website revolving around the recent SSL3 "Poodle" vulnerability?

It probably auto-updated to Opera 25 and you're now experiencing this bug:

Sorry to hear that. I don't have any other ideas. Here on v12.17 Tumblr works. You can try moving your existing Opera profile to another computer and see if you still got the issues (but remember to clear cookies and cache).

You can rename/delete Opera's profile folder to "reset" Opera.

Found another thread and think I may have got pepper flash installed - in control panel/programs it lists Adobe Flash Player 15 Pepper. It's made a difference as now when I try and play a swf vid in FB I get an error mesg - "couldn't load plug-in".

The Opera plug-ins entry reads -

Adobe Flash Player
Version: 15.0.0.183
Shockwave Flash 15.0 r0
Disable

the only thing is with hutchinson 3g is the ridicolous throttling called "traffic sense" but seen as you get unlimited data
(if you use pdanet) i cant overly complain
on payngo smartphone i usually get 4.2mpbs down and 1.80 up not brilliant but usable unless you try to go on flickr
if i were you id just stick with opera turbo as ive found using a vpn (like dotvpn) can screw up access to certain sites
and in any case opera is way better than any other browser ive tried i use bing on opera as i find google to be intermitant and slow also the new stash method is easy to use its just a pity opera hasnt got as many extensions as firefox if it had
it would be a world beater

You vaste your time. I am using Opera since 1993 but now, abandoned 12.16 that, day after day is less compatile, and 15 a disaster, I am moving to Chrome. Why should I use a bad copy (Opera 15) of Chrome???

You are also spamming the forum since this post is the exact same post you put in another thread. That is a violation of the terms of service.

Oh... I don't know. I rather like Opera 25 but if you find that it lacks too many features, then by all means - enjoy Chrome and good luck to you. :whistle:

On Opera v12.17 Java 8 update 20 works. Some sites require to add them to exception list, but as I've now checked it works. Java 8 update 25 for some reason doesn't work for me on v12.17. With this version I have the same experience as davehawley.
Zoom behaviour

Is there any possible way to stop the zooming from affecting entire domains, either in Opera or some extension?
I am frequently frustrated by this behavior. Often when I am viewing a page I will open an image or map in a new tab and zoom in on it. Then when returning to the original page, it is now also changed unwantedly.

I also often find myself wondering why a page looks strange, eventually realizing that on some previous day I zoomed in on a different page that happened to be on the same domain. With no visible zoom toolbar, this is difficult to notice.

Every other Windows program I use treats zoom as a view-specific setting. I wish I could get the same behavior from Opera.

Where exactly is the 'Open all' function available?

In the bookmarks menu, the one just between "Recent Tabs" and "New Private Window".
