i searched and found stuff for older builds
and ive looked in the windows folder and havent found where they are saved
anyone know how to back them up for when i hard reset?
You should be able to back up \Windows\Opera9\opera6.adr to your SD card. Then just restore it back to \Windows\Opera9
I also believe you can set that in Opera itself. Open Opera, and go to the url about:config. I believe it's a setting under the "Personal" menu item.
i found the file in file explorer but couldnt find it in settings
thanks guys

Does anyone know where Opera mobile 9.5 stores bookmarks?
If I remember well is the file opera6
Sorry for my english
Ciao
\Windows\Opera9\fake\*****\oktoberfest\opera6.adr
On the Diamond there is a \Windows\Opera9 but none of the sub-directories cache, help, images, locale, secure, Settings, skin, styles, widgets look possible for bookmarks.
I was basically hoping to edit the default bookmarks directly (from windows), rather than enter each address and then save to favourites.
You can synchronise for favorites with your desktop.
Then import these Internet Explorer favorites into Opera with the "File-->Import and Export" menu. Now you can pick this opera6.adr from your desktop, and put it on your Diamond into "\windows\opera9\".
Another way of doing it is to use link.opera.com
Alas opera mobile doesn't support syncing wth it, but there is a workaround that's pretty easy.
Setup your bookmarks in opera on the desktop, (mac or pc or *nix or whatever) then set up the link, you'll need to sign up first..
Go to link.opera.com in opera mobile, sign in and when the page has loaded save it.
open the saved page and set it as a bookmark (I use the saved speedial page as my homepage in opera mobile).
It's a workaround, but it works and is easy to do, if you need to reflash your device and forget your bookmarks (as if :cough) then you can get them from opera link..
The reason for saving the page? It saves a bit of data transfer and time.
A Solution!
Worked For Me. To Get All Internet Explorer Bookmarks, First Install The Official Beta Off The Website(opera.com) or find opera6.adr from the original opera file that was already on your phone.
Install The Newest Build You Desire, Copy The "opera6.adr" from the original file and paste into the new builds file. Fire opera up and should be there. worked for me! Try It. If my directions were confusing, please forgive me. lol Its what i did tho.
could you post that file so i dont have to uninstall/reinstall.
Extra Help! =]
I Have Diamond Opera Installed On Device Memory.
I Downloaded This Build http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=401643 But Any Should Work. So For My Example We Will Use This One.
Download Either QVGA Or VGA 2392 Or The SD Version. Its Up To You If You Want To Install On Device Memory Or Memory Card (SD).
If Your Device Originally Had Opera Mobile Of Any Version On It, Then Locate The Opera Folder. Mine Is "My Device/Application Data/Opera."
If You Didn't Have A Opera Browser On Your Phone Then Look Below For A Different Solution. Find The opera6.adr File Or It Will Just Say "opera6" On Your Device. Copy It And If You Installed Onto Device Memory Go To "My Device/Windows/Opera9" And Paste It. If You Installed Onto Memory Card Paste It In "My Device/Staorage Card/Program Files/Opera9" There You Go! That Simple!
If Your Device Didn't Originally Have Opera Of Any Version On It, Download This: http://www.opera.com/mobile/download/?man=Windows+Mobile+5.0+Pocket+PC&ver=9.51b2&heading=Windows%20Mobile%205/6%20Pocket%20PC&img=/bitmaps/products/mobile/platform/951b2.gif&extra=Touchscreen-based%20devices%20only.%20Last%20updated:%2020.10.2008
Install Onto Device Or Memory Card. Launch It. Bookmarks Should Be In There. Exit. Then Go To The Installed Location. For Devices Memory The File Should Be In "My Device/Program Files/Opera 9.5 Beta" And For Memory Card It Should Be In My Device/Storage Card/Program Files/Opera 9.5 Beta Aswell. Locate The opera6.adr File Or On Your Device It Will Just Show "opera6". Copy It And Paste Into The "Opera9" File (Assuming You Have Already Installed The Build You Desire) Which Is Located "My Device/Windows/Opera9" If Installed On Device Memory And For Storage Card The Location Is "My Device/Storage Card/Program Files/Opera9." Then Uninstall The Beta Version Load Up Your New Build And That Should Be It!
Hope It Works! And If Any Questions, Ill Try To Help.

Wouldnt Work If I Gave You My "opera6" file. You Would Get My Bookmarks On Your Opera Browser. Just Follow The "Extra Help" I Posted Before This Post.
solution
install opera10 on your desktop pc..
import firefox or ie bookmarks..
edit your bookmarks..forexam. del or add
and then export bookmarks as bookmarks.adr
edit name as opera6.adr
copy it "windows\opera9" and overwrite..
I have SKTools, Total Commander, and Registry Key Editors.
I tried setting up file associations to open URL files, but it doesn't work. Only PIE opens the URL files by default.
Can I get the instructions to open URL files with Opera Browser?
Bump, please help me.
This is my 1st bump.
Bump, please help me.
This is my 2nd bump.
As far as I know you can set up thatparameters typing opera:config on your device
Hope it helped,
So do you mean the file associations parameters should be "opera:config"?
URL associations are set up by the app you're using.
if opera is defined as your default browser any url you'll open will automatically pop opera up.
Okay, I am using File Explorer and Total Commander. I want to Open .url files with Opera, it opens with PIE instead.
How do I open it?
What is a "default calendar"?
When I set URL file association for Total Commander, the link does not go online, instead it brings me to an error page. Under the URL box in Opera Browser, it would not show www.google.com, instead it would show something like: storage card/%mystuff/%20favorite links
So if I copied a google.com url into my phone storage card, I want to open it and GO ONLINE with Opera Browser NOT PIE. How do i do this?
PLEASE DOWNLOAD THE ATTACHMENT, SO YOU GUYS KNOW WHAT KIND OF FILE I AM TALKING ABOUT.
meant browser.. not calendar.
when you setup a default browser it will open up all urls in it... automatically

I used Xperia Tweak to setup Opera Browser as my default browser, I still open google.url and it opens with PIE.
My basic file program is Total Commander.
BTW I am not talking about Microsoft Windows. I am talkin about Windows Mobile, and the phone I use is the Xperia X1.
Why is everyone giving me confusing answers. I'm getting more and more confused.
I have looked extremely hard for file associations for opera browser, and this is what i got:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1714441
I do not use morthscript though, and I'm afraid digging into will cause me to factory reset my phone again, and I have rest my phone 10 times already.
Please, tell me if there is any other way to Open URLs via Opera Browser.
I have this program which i downloaded ages ago. I cant remember where i got it from, so im just uploading it myself. Just to clarify, this is NOT my program.
You know how on a pc, you can right click and select "Open with"?
Well, this cab brings that to pocket pc's
Hope it helps
Yeah this is exactly what I was looking for. The thread link from one of my posts also talks about "open with" method. But I don't want to use mortscript.
If your cab is not going to work, I guess I will give up searching for a solution.
Anyways thanks, you are my miracle!.
Here is an update:
Nope... it opens Opera Browser but than it doesn't go to the website (the same exact thing happens if I set file associations for Opera, and the same exact thing still happens if I use the registry editor to change association values, xperia tweak doesn't work, total commander built in file associations doesn't work, sk tools file associations doesn't work either).
I GIVE UP
Registry settings
Hi
Registry settings where file defaults are is:
Hot Key Classes Root.
In this directory there are hundreds (or more) keys relating to all the different file extensions that are associated with programmes, etc. You need to look for:
.htm
.html
htmfile
htmlfile
There may be others. Basically if these keys exist the values you're looking for are the ones with the browser executable listed in them, for example opera9.exe/operaL.exe, iexplore.exe.
I hope that helps

as i see it you ar not talking of .htm or .html files.
You are talking off .url File's
normaly (xp) they are handled by the protocol handler
in wm6.1 there is no such thing and it is directly handeled by iexplore
opera wil not handle these i gues
you need to find a app that reads the urlfile an launh the app with the correct parrameters
you also need this
\hkcr\http,URL Protocol,
\hkcr\http\shell\open\command, ,"\windows\operaL.exe" %1
\hkcr\https,URL Protocol,
\hkcr\https\shell\open\command, ,"\windows\operaL.exe" %1
or you can try http://sourceforge.net/projects/jzsmartmort
(I posted about this last night, but the message got lost in some backup snafu. So I'll post it again. Apologies if they both end up here.)
I hacked together a solution to this problem, and posted it at ppcgeeks.
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=62816
It involves installing Mortscript, and having it handle passing the links to Opera. Seems to be working perfectly for me so far. Hopefully my instructions are not too convoluted. Enjoy.
Is it possible to save files to a sub folder using Opera Mobile? The only options it gives me are the folders in the root of either the device or the storage card.
It's a little annoying. I would be grateful for any information to get Opera to show a file tree or anything. (Opera Mini lets you save anywhere, but the Java engine on the Fuze doesn't let OM save anything anywhere.)
good question
I was wondering the same thing, but then for saving files in Office Mobile. I can't believe M$ is limiting our choices to only the root/storage card folders...
Anyone knows why, has a solution or workaround?
cheers
Does anyone know how to save/backup/access the bookmarks and "speeddial" files?
I performed a device-wide search and discovered 40+ references to Opera, and a multitude of vaguely named files, but nothing that stood out clearly as a bookmark file or a speed-dial file, as in Opera for the desktop.
So, does anyone have any idea of how to access these files so I can back them up?
P.S. I refuse to use the "Opera Link" option because it always ruins my bookmarks on both my desktop and phone since it tries to sync them. I simply want to backup the ones that are on the phone (TP2) and that's it.
Bump.
Can't believe no one has an answer for this, bearing in mind the conditions outlined in the above post.
Well, it's not that hard to figure out-you've had plenty of time, lol.
Been a while since I used mini, but check the sub-folder in the mini folder. It has all the user info stored there, I believe in .db files. Just back them up and restore them. It's pretty easy to use mini, make a few changes to your speed dials, then just see which file(s) changed.
Hi,
WTF happend to the option in chrome where to save downloads?
It seems like you can only change it to SD now, but it is buried in the android folder... Is there a way to change it directly to the folder emu..SD/downloads?
Searched for a few day, couldn't find any proper info on it.
Thanks in advanced

Note: this will delete all data associated with chrome (stuff you logged in with chrome and possibly the things you downloaded as well)
Fix:
Disable the app and re-enable it (it'll go back to the first time you loaded it and download anything, you can choose where you want to save files)
