Hi,
I did migrated to new server as recommended. But I have no sync tools other than "Opera Link" at my Opera 12.16 for Linux. (That's the last version for OS I use). Will be there some update supporting new sync system for Linux before "Opera Link" is closed?
Shmuel.

Most probably because it doesn't worth the costs. Also it doesn't make sense to work on an update for an old version of a software.

@marwerno I'm agree with all you said. In my case i cant export as htlm from the phone because OM 4.5 hasn't export function.
It's really a shame that Opera not continue with very useful notes function! -

@gh0st7: sync.opera.com still does not work for you? Does it happen every time? If so, could you help us with identifying the problem by pasting screenshot from WebInspector (Network Tab)? We suspect that your CSS and JS files are not loaded somehow. Thank you in advance!

@sominski: if you are using 32-bit Linux then so far we have new Opera for this version in the developer stream. Thus it would not autoupdate as such, but you can install it manually, then try to import your data from Presto Opera and then use Sync from there.
32-bit .deb version: link
32-bit RPM version: link

From the sync page,
"What data does Opera synchronize between my devices?
Opera synchronizes bookmarks, open tabs, Speed Dial shortcuts and more from all of your devices. It merges bookmarks from each device you sign in with, remembers which tabs you have open on each device, and lets you access the Speed Dial start pages of your devices, anywhere."
Question:: If Opera MERGES bookmarks from all of your devices, is there any way to pick and choose which bookmarks I want placed on the newly synced device?? For instance, I have already synced my tablet (no bookmarks originally) to the bookmarks placed there (on Opera server) by my Opera on Computer. Thus my tablet has all the bookmarks from my Computer Opera. I subsequently sign out of sync from my tablet, such that any new bookmarks added to my Opera (Computer) are not synced. Then later I add some bookmarks to Opera for Computer (which is still synced) - SOME of which I want on my Tablet (and others not) . I now sync my tablet, and what I want to do is pick and choose which of the new bookmarks I want added to my tablet.
Can this be done??
In the past what I have done is go to a Web page that I have newly bookmarked on my computer, and copied the address, and then I email that to myself, open the email on my tablet, go to the web page contained in that email, and THEN bookmark that in my Opera on my Tablet.
Also, has the Opera team solved the duplicate/triplicate and reordering of bookmarks after I sync my devices??

I haven't been using Opera at all for a long time (so I have no instance installed), but it had been really useful to be able to access my old notes (lots of them!) though the web interface - link.opera.com. Now, when it's down, I feel cheated. Email notice was the least thing that you could do. Who cares about some forum?!
How can I access my personal data? How can I retrieve my notes?

Hey there,
I hope one of the dev team read this.
Since I'm one of the "die hard" opera 12 user's I wanted to thank you for the good browser you produced (I've used it since 98).
It's a pity that you are going to close "link" because it made life easier.
Why you didn't asked if we may want to pay for it? I would, if you say to the "die hard" user's for example this service cost's €12/year I would pay you the next 10 year's in advance and I'm sure that there are at least 1000 of me. I mean at least 1000 who care more about security than browsing useless homepages like facebook and that crap since the MOST SECURE BROWSER OUT THERE IS STILL OPERA 12.16-12.17...
I know it's kinda late but think it over, I'm kinda sure to run a FreeBSD server which provide the opera link service (for the old 12.*) can't cost more than €1000.-/month.
Well if all fail's I need to code my own link server and mod my host file...
anyway, have a nice time
