      @atangyp Nope, that's how it works. if you want, you can copy the content of other speed dials to your current Speed Dial.

        @leocg OK no worries. Since I posted, I've found others postings similar to mine. Other users having similar problem and also requested this be added as a feature to Opera Browser. To allow us the option to sync Speed Dial across different computers. Since this feature is still not yet available till now, I assume that Opera is not interested in doing this at all. Will look at other browsers. Thanks.

          Hello there! I got problem with Opera Search, when the first word in the searched sentence is "w", Opera automatically searches Wikipedia. How to turn off this thing, because it`s really annoying to me.

              Hello, i'm new here and need some help. I have a Mac running on Osx El capitan 10.11.6 and can't upgrade it to a newest version because it's too old. my version of Opera is Version :74.0.3911.107. I just want to know how i can put Quant as my favorite search engine instead of Google or others. I have tried to ad Quant in the search engine list but i dont understand the % request and i don't understand how to ad Quant in the default choice list of search engine. Sorry for my english, i'm french...
              ave a nice day

                @brunolompech It's not possible, only the pre-defined search engines can be set as default.

                  Is there a way to add custom thumbnail to speed dial icons?

                        Hi, even though I change the search engine in Opera settings, only the address bar search engine changes, the search bar is still Google. How do I change it?

                            Hello, is it possible to sync speed dials between devices?

                            I can't seem to work out how to do that and this must surely be a feature, right?

                              @gisteren As said several times, speed dials are synced but not automatically populated, you need to do it manually.

                                I have synced my devices, and have enabled flow on my laptop. When I sync, I see all the speed dials. But the icon of a computer screen with a plus does not show on the laptop speed dial to allow me to add another device's speed dial.

                                How do I add this icon?

                                I have the latest version of opera-stable on my laptop.

                                TIA

                                  @fherman In desktop versions, there is a folder in Bookmarks named "Other speed dials", there will be a folder there named for the ID of your device(s).

                                    @sgunhouse I only see Speed Dial in Bookmarks. Not other speed dials. The folder Speed Dial contains the current bookmarks on the home screen.

                                      @fherman You need to open the full bookmarks manager page, the panel will not show that folder.

                                        Whenever I download an attachment e.g. to an email, the download seems to work but the Opera icon on my taskbar turns red and stays red until I close Opera. The download content seems OK.

                                          @djawalk It's usually a broken download on your download list.

                                            I wanted to know why it is not possible to choose a search engine to your liking. By default there is Google, but if I choose Duck Duck as default, every time I open the Browser I always have to change Google because it opens by default. I also downloaded the Duck duck extension and activated it but it doesn't open on next start. Can't you modify the system?
