            @slobodan Now you explained the problem, thanks.

            Can you log into https://sync.opera.com/web/ ?

                i just presed to reset sync and it said that i will not loose any date.
                now it says you have not data stored.
                and i am using opera for several years with the same account and email and everything and now i do not have any data.
                so is there any way to retrive?

                  If everything shows '0' then there is a chance that there's no data on the server.

                  Does opera://sync-internals/ show any error?

                    It says that data on your devices will not be deleted, what should be the case.

                    You will need to use a backup.

                          First, a tip: a synchronization service should never be used as a backup because one little mistake can make you loose all your data on all your devices.

                          Well, if Sync doesn't work only on one device then most probably something is blocking it. Did you check anti-virus, firewall and any software that may be blocking Opera from accessing the sync server?

                                  @slobodan Do you mean that the data was removed locally? They were using the sane sync credentials?

                                    when i hit reset sync, said that i did not have any data. and then i checked my sons lapttop all the data was there. several minites later opera automaticly signed out all my devices when i reconected them there was no data on any device.

                                      When you reset your data it is removed from the sync server and since it's a synchronization service, all devices connect to it will start to synchronize the lack of data.

                                      That's why a synchronization service should never be used as a backup service.

                                          here is my suggestion:
                                          maybe you should consider using blockchain technology instead clasic servers.
                                          here is a recomendation "storj.io"
                                          they are cheaper, more reliable and at least 2x faster. and the most important it is impossible to loose any data.
                                          some food for thought.
