@sgunhouse said in Cannot Sync Speed Dials in Opera, So why sign in or keep account?:

@tuffkitten Your other devices are there, and you can see them if you want to just Select all and then Paste.

The idea was that you may not want ALL your speed dials on a work computer or phone, or likewise all you work speed dials on your personal laptop or phone.

I'm tired of hearing this. No one knows the real reason why Opera has chosen not to sync speed dials.

Like me, I'm sure there is lots of people that have a desktop Opera and a laptop Opera. Heck yeah I want them to sync. Fortunately I do know how to make them the same. And thank fully I rarely change my speed dial.

How to restart opera?

Type this in your address bar: opera://restart and hit enter.

I'm constantly finding myself duplicating tabs.

Would love a keyboard shortcut to make this
go faster.

Can the sidebar be placed on the right side of the screen?

@browzer1 said in How to change your browser ID within Opera:

@rif ... Does this not change the Opera "statistics" on web browsing? Is it a good thing or a bad thing?

Yes, it does affect the usage stats. If a user can access a site by changing the browser ID, it's a good thing for him in gaining access to the site... but it's not a good thing for Opera's market share stats. The ideal would be for websites to respect and operate properly with Opera's genuine user-agent string or respond to user complaints if they don't. But all too often, that's not how the online world seems to operate...

Exactly. Ever try to email a big company such as Hulu and tell them the site works in Opera but you have us blocked for some reason.

Was just going to suggest this when I found this thread.

I would love to be able to do this. I just tried it in the
latest Chrome and that works for me.

Hope Opera adds this sometime.

I think polls are a great way to determine the overall consensus of users.

Wish we could do them here.

It's a very old discussion but basically most people prefer to have different Speed Dials for home, work, etc.

I wish we could do a poll on this. I want the same speed dial myself on my devices. Why not just have a flag for sync speed dial yes|no.

Try this...
Open a new tab
Open a 2nd new tab and go to a website
Go back to the first tab. Is it empty?

Mine is.

Win 8.1, Opera 54.xxx

I'm sure we've all run across sites that "Don't work" in Opera. Usually (But not always) because of the browser ID string.

Well I just signed up for Hulu and it wouldn't work in Opera so no big deal, it worked in Chrome and I was happy.

I mentioned this to my daughter and she said she got it to work in Opera! I was pleasantly shocked. I guess
she's more tech savvy then I realized!

Here's how

1. Right click on page and choose "Inspect element."
2. Click 3 vertical dots in upper right corner, "More tools, Network conditions."
3. Uncheck "Select automatically.
4. Click on the box right below that and choose your Browser ID string.
5. Refresh the page you had trouble with! I use Shift-F5

She said she found this on a Reddit page.

@leocg said in Created a search but doesn't work:

@rif Did you check in opera://settings/searchEngines to see if everything is correct for that search engine?

How am I supposed to know if its correct or not. I assume its not correct as its not working. I did look at it. My only option is to click the Post checkbox but when I do that it won't let you save it.

I've created a search at https://www.hockeydb.com by right clicking in the search box and creating the search.

My shortcut is h but whenever I do in the address bar "h soo greyhounds" it just brings me to a google results page searching on the term "h soo greyhounds."

Can anyone confirm or know of a fix?

This used to work for quite a few years but I haven't done a search here in a couple of years.

Not sure how many of you were using M2 last year when it stopped working with gmail and yahoo. I was one of those. I've used a couple of other mail programs since then and have been very unhappy with them.

So I took another look at why it wasn't working.

Gmail, I do have 2 step verification turned on. What you need to do is to generate an "App Password." This will be used by M2 to access your mail. You can find info here: https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/185833?hl=en

Yahoo mail. pretty much the same scenario, you have to generate a password for M2. https://help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN15241.html

So at the moment I'm hoping I can continue to use this for awhile.

I have no problems using usps.com

@teknomobil said in Cleaning list of synced opened tabs:

I finally solved the problem, the path to the file causing it is:
C:\Users\XXXXX\AppData\Roaming\Opera Software\Opera Stable\Local Storage

With Opera closed, I deleted this folder (Local Storage) and the problem was solved. If you have a similar problem, first backup this folder and then delete it.

Yay, this solved this problem for me also.

Works in Edge, IE, Chrome, Firefox

No I'm not going to make a plain jane Opera install to check this.

Damn, as a thought I went and turned off ad blocking and tracker blocking.
Come to find out I only needed to turn off tracker blocking.

I did go to chrome and typed in chrome://chrome-urls
and from that list I tried a few in Opera and I they worked.

I was just more curious about it then anything.

@leocg said in What's available when you type opera:// in the address bar?:

@rif It would be chrome://chrome-urls (or opera://urls) but it doesn't work.

Hmm, so is there another way to get a list?
