  Sorry i miswrote my hint for importing passwords. Please forgive my fault. 😉

  This works fine with importing password on my Windows 7 (just testet minutes before) in DOS box:

  "%PROGRAMFILES(x86)%\Opera\launcher" --presto-small-prefs-dir="%APPDATA%\Opera\Opera"

  So I copied the mail-info into one of the accounts (which I will hardly use).

  Not sure what you mean by this exactly.

  The problem is that I didn't copy the Roaming folder.

  By not copying the roaming folder, you'll just lose contacts, saved passwords and global mail settings for the UI. Your accounts, mail and read states are in "C:\Documents and Settings\user\Local Settings\Application Data\Opera Mail\Opera Mail\Mail". So, if you copied that over, you should be fine.

  I had installed Opera Mail first on the new PC before considering to copy/move

  If you had already installed Opera Mail, you'd delete/rename "C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Opera Mail\Opera Mail\mail" and put the "mail" folder from WinXP in its place. That should be enough to get all mail and read states back etc. You'd just have to retype your username and password for each account when it tries to connect.

  OK - the only solution that I found is to uninstall Opera deleting all the Opera user data.

  More threads are popping up with this same issue.

  Ive had this probelm with no solutions for the last several months. Running XP with latest service packs. Read the same recommendations about computer time/date, Antivirus SSL, both of which did not solve the problem.

  As of yet there is no working solution for this issue.

  Our company has been instructed to not use Opera. I wish this issue would be resolved but thus far I dont see any actual solutions just a few ideas that dont work.

  @jlbaskin Flash is not the same as HTML5! May be you think, Flash is video with Flashplayer.

  HTML5 in these days may replace some features of interactive content and video, Adobe and other dealing with HTML5 showed this years before, but not all features of Shockwave Flash are replacable with HTML5.

  I think Flash will coexist with HTML5 some years more.

  Given that it's now based on Chrome, they'll introduce that feature soon.
  Not really, they can and do have different views about user experience. For instance Opera Software could consider separate OS user accounts for different users enough and ideal.

  About the launcher shortcut use --data-path=C:\locationoftheprofile

  Go into your preferences, ctrl + F12, Then Advanced tab, then Network down the left hand side. Click on the Proxy servers button. I don't really understand your situation, not enough info. If you are using a proxy server, check the first one HTTP fill in the details and then check Use this proxy for all protocols. If you are not using a proxy server, uncheck everything and erase anything in the boxes provided.

  My bad!

  feel free to delete this one, yet another problem occured while trying to fix this; lost all my bookmarks using: https://addons.opera.com/en/extensions/details/bookmarks-manager/?display=en

  I managed to keep a bookmarks file from the Opera Stable folder but cannot load it into the Bookmarks Manager anymore as it only takes html ...might better open a new thread for this problem.

  Hope the taskbar issue gets solved soon 😉

  Thanks again!

  Opera V23.00 Flaws

  1.) Whenever you right click on something and click "Open in a new tab", half of the items you do this with opens the new tab, but it doesn't load the page. Sometimes you need to do it 3 times before it actually loads the page, and there is nothing being done differently than any other attempt.
  It just looks like Opera is waiting for "pipes" (max multiple connections cap) or availability of the computer resources to the renderer. It ends up loading.

  2.) Saving images to your computer. Previous Opera versions allowed you to save a picture, simply by right click, save image. With Opera 23, that feature is gone.
  What!? It's there. o.o

  3.) When installing Opera 23, it doesn't ask if you want to uninstall older versions... "Dumber" users may not realise this, and then sit with several Opera versions on their PC
  It already uninstalls all versions. It shouldn't even list multiple versions in your computer. If you're talking about Opera 12 it's a different product altogether though.

  4.) Opera Software ASA, seriously, saved sessions? You remember that feature? PLEASE BRING IT BACK.
  Yes, right-click the tab bar and select Save tabs as Speed Dial folder. When you want to open it right-click the folder. Much better to organize the saved session than the old way. When bookmarks are back in full in a future version you can use a bookmark folder but the thumbnails makes recognizing the pages so easier that I don't see myself using a favicon+title list anytime soon - let alone only a name that will open all the saved pages at the same time without you remembering exactly which ones you had saved and without an easy way to edit the session.

  With OffRoad mode the browser uses a Opera compression proxy which is outside your LAN.

  I dont know, but Opera should recognize internal IPs, and dont use compression with OffRoad.

  I cant geht to my internal webserver if using IP instead of hostname.
  Oh i see, this seems to be a Opera 22 Bug with OffroadMode or Opera Turbo.

  It took me a bit to find what had happened to the Add To Speed Dial button. If you click on the heart that looks like the Add To Stash button, you get a drop down menu and you can choose Speed Dial from that.

  Not sure what the point of the change is, it seems like change for change sake to me.

  Version: 23.0.1522.60 - An error occurred while checking for updates(network acces disabled by me)
  Update stream: Stable
  System: Windows 7 64-bit (WoW64)

  thats the problem no statusbar 😃 theres annoying popup ..

  new firefox have no statusbar also .. it have same popup, but in firefox i can choose to put it back so it perfect by using plugin status-4-evar.

  that popup isnt neccesary for me and its takeing space from pagewiev.
  (example facebook chat message inputs are total hided if i accidently forgot to navigate mouse to safe area.)
  (cant see what i input, sometimes its hard to find safe area on page so its always hideing important stuff)

  also information from bottom page are often not visible cuz i forgotted to navigate mouse cursor to safe area safe area==area without mines==links.

  sorry about my english not my native language.

  Fox Video and Opera 23

  @joegd21

  Thanks. That was a good idea. Problem solved.

  Only it wasn't a Chrome extension, but an Opera one, "https everywhere." (That extension, though, is probably in the Chrome store too, but the Opera store carries it, and that's where I got it. I have that extension for both Firefox and Opera 23. So when I deactivated it in Opera 23, and in Firefox, the Fox Videos work in both browsers. Now I think that extension is useful, so I posted the problem on the Opera add-on website (for their extension). Hopefully, they'll get it working.

  Profile and data-path flag on Opera 23

  Thanks Dave! It says:

  Install: C:\Program Files\Opera
  Profile: C:\Documents and Settings\r0\Application Data\Opera Software\Opera Stable
  Cache: C:\Documents and Settings\r0\Local Settings\Application Data\Opera Software\Opera Stable

  I deleted the Opera Software folder but when I run Opera it makes a new folder and a new profile.

  On the other hand I just verified that the cache files are being created in my custom cache path even if About Opera shows the default path.
