Opera won't allow Google calendar or Gmail to be used

I can't find an actual solution in the forum to this problem.
I have cleared the cache and am allowing all cookies, yet the problem persists. Is there a way to use Google services in Opera, or am I required to use a different browser? I just switched over to Opera on my laptop, but it looks like it is not a viable option if I cannot access my calendar, email, Google voice account, etc.

@bkt You really mean Google won't allow Opera, but anyway ... you might try turning off the anti-tracking feature on those sites; that's probably the cookies Google is concerned about.

@sgunhouse Can you be more specific about what you mean?

Where do I do what you suggest? In Opera or in Google, which I cannot get to?

@bkt In Opera, when you try to visit the site click on the shield icon in the address bar and turn off the tracker blocking. Then reload the page.

Well, I would do that if there were an actual shield to click on. I've clicked on the padlock.

Nothing looks amiss in settings.

@bkt said in Opera won't allow Google calendar or Gmail to be used:

have cleared the cache

Did you also clear cookies? As in, goto the URL opera://settings/siteData, type google.com in the quick-find field and click "remove all shown".

I don't know why your Opera browser won't let you use any Google docs. After all, Sheets, Calendars, and Office Word can be downloaded and installed as an Opera browser extension without any problem. Try finding these extensions in the Opera Extensions Store. If you can't install it, remove the restriction on using Google content in Opera. What search engine are you using? I guess it's definitely not Google. Until you find a solution to the problem with Google syncing calendars, you can download a calendar template from 123calendars.com to use in any program you choose where you can edit JPG, PNG, or PDF files. You can easily find solutions to your problem or find alternatives. Good luck.
