[FAQ] How is synchronization coming along?

Why can't I import bookmarks, speed dial, notes etc from my Link/Synchronisation? I keep having to come here to login to get access to all that. And what's the point of the sync button in the upper right of the browser, it doesn't seem to do anything once you're logged in, surely you could keep that in the Options Menu?

OMenu > Bookmarks

Don't forget to login first both in Opera 28 and Opera Mini.

They will be (or should be) among the others, there won't be a separated folder for Mini bookmarks afaik.

And btw, which version of Mini? The feature only works in Mini 8 and newer.

Hi,

Can you tell me if it is possible to synchronize bookmarks from Opera v. 28.0.1750.40 in my computer (pc) to use all of this bookmarks on my Windows Phone? (WP 8.1 on Lumia 830)

If it is possible, can you explain me how to do?

I try, Doing this:
1 - I logging to my Opera account on the option of Opera v.28 in my computer.
2 - I install Opera Mini beta (v.7.6.8; the only version available on Windows Store) on my Lumia 830 running under WP8.1
3 - On Opera Mini, i clic on Settings -> Opera Link -> i loggin to my account; and a message confirm that the sync is done.

But nothing works. No bookmarks are installed on my lumia 830 (Windows Phone v8.1) I don't understand why it doesn't works.

Thanks a lot to your help.

Best regards

Why have Opera removed the link to Opera Link in both the browser and now on the website too? I need access to my bookmarks and notes.

I really don't remember have seen it here.

and also in the browser too.

It was before sync have been enabled by default. disable sync in opera:flags andyou can get thelink back i guess.

This all is such a pitty; not supporting Opera Link anymore but not giving a working alternative right now - The logic behind that does not make sense at all. I am still running Opera 12.17 because any newer Version does not provide the functionality I need to work.

In "the good old" days I always wondered why OPERA has so little market impact although it is so inventive. Since Version 13 I wonder how someone could still use this crap.

I chose OPERA 10 years ago because I was dissatisfied with the "mainstraemers" IE and FF; maybe It's time for me to switch yet another time since Opera 12 is getting more issues with recent web content

R.I.P Opera

Why can I never access this page? The constant error message about a 'Token' is a joke.

Same same, the Opera sign in just simply comes and goes, one day you're logged in, then another day you get this "token" rubbish..!

I have Win8.1 on a new Toshiba Qosmio lappi.

Some answers Opera please...!

It works in Opera 30 and iirc in 29 too.

Note that you need to go to bookmarks manager to see a folder with speed dials from other devices.

I still don't understand. When two devices are synced I expect to see exactly the same thing on both devices. The speed dial tiles on my laptop (Windows 7) do not appear on my phone (htc one m8 android 4) even though both devices are synced. I never really use bookmarks I use speed dial frequently.

I am using Opera 31 and the sync option has become a mess. Now I have multiple duplicate bookmark folders and also the bookmarks inside the folders are randomly duplicated. Same issue with speed dial wich I tried to clean manually, only to find later when I reopen the browser that there are even more instances of the items I deleted.

I recommend that you only log in with your sync account on stable versions of Opera, both on your mobile and on your computer. If you want to test new features in Beta/Developer that requires sync, I suggest that you create a second account that you use only for testing.

I have the exact same problems as @jchelo21. And I'm using a stable build (Opera 30 Stable (30.0.1835.55472))
