      Just installed Opera and still finding my way around. And hit a really big problem! Puleeeeze will someone tell me why it refuses to let me import all my 'favourites' stuff from Google Chrome. No matter how many times I try, the damn import bookmarks box stays greyed out!I don't care if you think I'm an idiot as I'm getting really stressed here!

        The bookmark importer tool is meant to be used with Opera Presto atm. Copying bookmarks* .* from your Chrome profile folder into Opera's one should help i think.

          New Developer build imported my Chrome bookmarks. You may have to wait a bit, but it's coming.
