  I'm happy to report that this issue is resolved! Per the advice I got here I contacted FastMail support &, after sending them screenshots of the nag pop-ups, they had me check Opera's "Mail & Chat Accounts..." [from "Tools"]. Sure enough, my wife's email address was there although it didn't belong there. I deleted it & that resolved the problem. Apparently my wife accidentally put her email address there when she responded to a pop-up dialog box that she probably got after hitting the wrong key combination. Thanks for your efforts.

  I think i do not use Presto.

  You do! Opera 12.16 on Linux is: Opera Presto

  Is there a workaround for the animation?

  No.

  Enjoying the latest build of Opera on Ubuntu 14.04. I noticed the window icons are on the right while Unity uses the left. Will this be corrected?

  Hello:

  I just installed this on Linux mint cinnamon 14 Nadia. Everything that has been broken for me is fixed so far. Enormous amounts of time fixing speed dial up, and getting tabs to open on start up. Hate the menus that are gone. Zendesk memory leak is gone now too, which used to cause opera 12.16 to crash. Flash doesn't seem to work. Where it was no problem on 12.16. We'll see how this plays out. I have already received one update in a week to this dev version. So glad having to use FF or chrome for this and that is over, and I can kick them to the curb. Hope this thing goes full support soon. How can we as a community help?

  Opera forums use "markdown" rather than boardcode, see the link at the bottom of the page for details.

  It is one of maybe half a dozen commonly used sites around here and one of the less obnoxious ones. Do not use (or suggest) a site with ads for adult//dating sites or with too many ads, other than that I wouldn't worry about it. (I have an account on Flickr so I use them, but otherwise ... I have seen some sites used that have access problems and wouldn't recommend those either.)

  You mean mail in Opera? If so, the answer is no - unless you can right-click on them and choose Open in > (menu of programs). If you're using the standalone Opera mail, I'd think they should open in the default ... you may need to set an environment variable so that non-Gtk programs know what browser to use.

  http://karlmistelberger.jalbum.net/TestjAlbum/2014-05-11/index.html#p1030239.jpg and all other pictures loads fine with me in 12.16 (Build 1860, Platform Linux System x86_64, 3.5.0-17-generic) in "Mint 14".

  The pictures even switch, when I use the scrollwheel of my Logitech "MX510" mouse.

  What distro do you use? Maybe it it a distro or desktop manager issue?

  Can you change the cursors in Opera 12.16 Ubuntu

  There's not really a file as such, as I have just checked the Ubuntu software repository and there are no collections of pointer themes, only individual themes.

  Here is one of many sites that host loads of (desktop/window/pointer/background/etc) themes for Linux.

  This link (below) is specifically for mouse cursors/pointers.

  The main site is below.

  Display of text in aftermarket.pl works fine on Debian 7.5.
  Tested with webpage switched to polish and Opera's user interfacer polish.

  The webpage uses Source Sans Pro as font, not a webfont!
  You have a problem with the display of your sans-serif fonts or with the correct fonts substitution of your Linux.

  Please check this in Shell with fc-list:

  ~ fc-match "Source Sans Pro"
  DejaVuSans.ttf: "DejaVu Sans" "Book"

  Do you actually see the license dialog again?

  Notes and bookmarks are both items that can be synced - do you have it enabled or not? Mail and other customizations okay?

  Open your file manager and look at ~/.opera/ ... are any of the files there dated before today?

  Opera uses the hunspell dictionaries (from OpenOffice v2); find the hunspell dictionaries in your package manager and install the ones you wish.

  What happens if you double-click or right-click the .oex extension file and select "open with" Opera web browser? Or dragging and dropping it into Opera's window for instance?

  More info:

  Extensions

  If you attempt to install an extension from a site that is not listed in the "Trusted Websites" dialog under the "Extensions" tab, the installation will be blocked with a warning: "For your safety, you can only install extensions from addons.opera.com or other trusted websites. Trusted websites are defined in the security preferences."

  Adding to the list of trusted websites

  To add a source to the list of "Trusted Websites", take the following steps:
  From the menu, go to Settings > Preferences > Advanced > Security.
  Click the "Trusted Websites" button.
  Choose the relevant tab: Extensions or Secure Internal Hosts
  Click "Add" and enter the web address of the site. You can also edit or delete sites in the list.

  Thanks for the clarifications.

  Launch Opera on the command line with -pd "path to folder on your desktop". Set up mail in there really quick and see if it works fine there. If so, it's probably something in ~/.opera (like operaprefs.ini or most likely the "mail" folder).

  You can also check the database. Sometimes it can fix things.

  The powerloss killed some Opera settings/files in ~/.opera/ or even parts of your harddisk.

  Please restore them from your daily backup.

  What I basically did was install the Bookmarks Manager extension from the extensions page(https://addons.opera.com/en/extensions/details/bookmarks-manager/?display=en)

  And then downloaded the bookmarks html file from the other browser - in my case it was from Chrome. Then I clicked Manage and Import in the extension (http://imgur.com/fa2JZUv).

  Then under Import Bookmarks, click choose file and then upload the file you downloaded.

  You can add up to 50 "normal" (customized) search entries (plus Hotclick entries), but it's easier to just replace one of existing 17 entries.
  If you don't have a search.ini or an "empty" search.ini, only Google, AllTheWeb?, Super, and Find in page will get listed (that's probably a bug).
  Opera won't add other built-in search engines (like Find in page) automatically if you add more than three search engines to your search.ini (that's probably another bug).The list of Search Engines has to be ascending and must not contain any gaps. If the list is incomplete, all search entries after the last correct one will be missing in all dialogs.
  If some of your Search Engines are listed in the Hotclick dialog and in Preferences but are not displayed on the Personal bar, it's because of missing Key entries.

  Problem with 12.16 after Kubuntu upgrade.

  I have just tried your link above (to Wunderground.com) and the page loads ok, the radar map displays on the right hand side, and have no problem scrolling around the radar map and clicking to zoom in.

  This was performed using Opera 12.14 running under Puppy Linux (32bit) based on Ubuntu (13.04) Raring Ringtail on Linux kernel 3.9.8.1., with flash plug-in 11.2.202.275 installed and working. I also have two extensions installed in this setup (that are not disabled), which are 'Slim scrollbar' and 'AdBlock' NOT the plus (+) version.
