I realize that things like extensions are not including in the sync process (though why I don't know because there really isn't a good reason why not), but according to the help pages sync on the desktop is supposed to cover bookmarks, tabs, Speed Dial, settings, history, and passwords. Well, I'm getting the bookmarks and history. Tabs, Speed Dial, settings and passwords...not so much. It isn't like I'm running an old version; I've got 35.0.2066.92 installed.

So...what is the issue? Is there a hidden setting I have to activate to get everything to sync as it's supposed to or is sync just not working as advertised?

Re: Set custom search engines as default

Users need to be able to set our own added search engines as the default search engine. This is pretty much a standard capability for browsers. Can't think of a single one that doesn't allow for this...except Opera.

SkazzySkills: Well, on the upside that means at least it isn't just you or I. Which rather suggests (though doesn't absolutely guarantee) that the problem is not with our local installations or configurations and it is in fact an issue with Opera.
