        I have been using Opera for a couple months now, and it has yet to sync new bookmarks between my desktop and laptop, and both are always signed in. The desktop is on almost 24/7. Chrome's sync is instantaneous but it has other problems, the reason I switched to Opera. But if I can not get the syncing to work, Opera is trash to me other than to run the few sites Chrome will not.

        No one on their social media pages seem to communicate with the tech/dev department, so I don't think the ones that can fix the problem even know there is a problem.

            I'm having the same issue with version 42.0.2393.94. Nothing is syncing across devices except for Javascript block list exceptions.

            Everything shows up fine when I go to https://sync.opera.com/web/ though.

                  Do you have the option 'Encrypt all data using own password...' enabled by chance? Also, do you know that Mini doesn't sync the same data as Opera for desktops, right?

                    Hey guys, I'm using encryption with my synced data. I cannot get open tabs to sync. I use opera desktop for Windows, Opera for iOS and Android (not Mini). What's the issue? I've got a tick next to Open Tabs but not passwords which I don't want to sync.

                      Just to add that https://sync.opera.com/web/ is showing 0 tabs but I can't figure out why that is?

                        Synced data encryption only works in desktop version of Opera.

                          But it doesn't work between the desktop versions either. I have one at home and one at work and it won't sync tabs between them either!

                            So the tab menu doesn't show the tabs opened in the other Opera installation? None of them show the tabs of the other one?

                              In my case, it is PCs - desktop and two laptops. Not even thinking of trying with my Android devices til the PCs are in sync. I am not using the encryption password option. All I want to sync are the bookmarks and extensions but it is not happening. Chrome was instantaneous... why is this not working for Opera?

                                And nothing syncs?

                                  Same here. Been using Opera for a couple of months because Google Chrome kept crashing. Has some advantages, but the absence of sync is a major pain. If Opera isn't interested in fixing it, I'm back to Google.

                                    That meaning....?

                                    Opera has sync.

                                    If Opera isn't interested in fixing it, I'm back to Google.

                                    Well, the world will not care or change if you do it.

                                      Hello
                                      It's so basic, how can it be possible that they're not fixing it? I need to sync 😞
                                      Is there any way to contact them... which they would answer?
