      If browsers in three devices are synchronized, aren't they supposed to look the same in the Speed Dial pages and the open tabs? All three of mine look different and yes, I am signed on to all three Opera browsers.

      When I look at What is Synchronized, two of them have the same totals for the different categories, but the third one has 183 open tabs total while the other two have 162. And all three show different open tabs and different Speed Dial pages.

      Do you have a different idea of what synchronized is supposed to look like?

                @sleeplessindc Open tabs and speed dials are synchronized but not automatically populated.

                    @ally It means that you can access open tabs and speed dials from other installations but they will not automatically show up in the current one.

                      @leocg How do you access the open tabs or speed dials in the other installations? If I have 12 tabs open in one installation with 10 speed dial boxes, then I go to a different computer and that Opera browser will only show me the 4 tabs and 3 speed dial boxes I have for Opera on that computer. By going to the View menu and using Show Speed Dial, it only shows me the one for that browser on that computer. I can't see how we access the fuller set of open tabs and speed dials on the other computer. The same with trying to find them on the phone.

                      Is there a missing menu item that allows us to see a list of all the tabs and speed dial boxes across three installations?

                        @sleeplessindc To access Speed Dials from other installations/devices, go to opera://bookmarks and open/click on Other Speed Dials

                          @sleeplessindc To see opened tabs from your other Operas, click on the tabs icon in sidebar or go to opera://activity.
