      I reckon this has been addressed before, but I could not find anything using search:
      I want to move my Opera to a new Mac.
      It's about the bookmarks, particularly the ones in "Speed Dial" ( chrome://startpageshared/ ).

      The first thing I tried was to simply export the bookmarks to HTML and import them on the new Mac. The problem here - and this is the main issue of this post - is that the icons of aforementioned "Speed Dial" page are missing (...and I have to admit I have quite a lot of then ;).

      Next, I tried to copy the following folders to the new Mac:

      Profile:/Users/myoldmac/Library/Application Support/com.operasoftware.Opera/
      Cache:/Users/myoldmac/Library/Caches/com.operasoftware.Opera/

      This didn't work either, only the first line of my Speed Dial page was present and it didn't even have the icons...

      Question: how do I backup&restore/migrate/move/get my old Opera install onto my new Mac, keeping the icons of "Speed Dial" intact?

      I'd like to mention that I'd rather not use any solution that would transfer my bookmarks to some server on the Internet.

      Thanks for your input and feedback,
      ~IRO

        @iro it’s very easy, indeed. As I‘m not at home, I‘ll show you later. Give me some time or hope someone else may answer it instead of me.

            @iro Give you the answer in a moment in the German language forum, if that's ok for you.
