Is it just me that can't get the opera start page to change? I can set it in the settings to google.com (or whatever) and when I hit the home button it goes there, but no matter what I do I can't get it to open to that page when opera starts up.
Additionally, after I updated my music library with windows media mobile, when I launch opera from the programs menu it loads windowsmedia.com.
When I launch from the "Search the Web" shortcut in landscape tf3d, it launches the stupid yahoo search page.
Someone please help me, I'm pulling my hair out here. I won't both of the above to open opera to about:blank.
(I have searched but I didn't find any mention)
After setting it in settings, you need to make sure that you hit the check mark at the bottom. Don't just hit OK.

Didn't like the homepage in PIE so changed it. (attached photo)
However, everytime i click on favorites or history tab(the ones wif the double arrows pointing downwards), i'm directed to opera mobile(it opens by itself). it's really puzzling..
On my HTC elf, clicking on favorites opens up my favorites, and clicking on history opens up my history. On my HTC cruise it doesn't.
I tried to go into opera's settings to unclick it from being default but it seems opera mobile doesn't even have this option.
Can anyone help me wif a registry tweak or something?
this could be due to file association problems. maybe when u installed opera mobile it changed file assoc. for webpages (html,shtml,php, etc.) to open w/ opera mobile only ..
i have opera mobile but i don't have that prob. check the reg for file associations.
peace,
sire

Hello all,
So, I've managed to set the globe icon on the Internet tab to go to Yahoo! using Skyfire. And I've also got it set so that clicking "Browser" goes to Skyfire.
Two questions:
1. Can I get the listed shortcuts on the Internet tab to load with Skyfire?
2. When I load a link from an email, it DOES go to Skyfire, and attempts to load the URL, but it only brings up an error page that says, "Page Not Found". Am I ding something wrong?
Thanks to you all!
as the title says,
when i search on google in the built in opera, the browser does not direct me to the actual page, instead it takes me to google definition to the name I clicked on.
its not eve displayed in english.
anyone knows how to solve this?
Is that via the Google search bar in TouchFlo? That one takes you to stripped out versions of the web sites for mobile use and speed, which is annoying since Opera is fast enough already... If so then just use Opera to go to google.com and choose full HTML rather than mobile view, bookmark it/make it the homepage and search from there.
With Opera Mobile 9 will automatically cravate favorite images after viewing the page you want.
You can simulate something with Opera Mobile 10, since it is not supported?
You can manually add thumbnails to bookmarks on the internet page (I can't remember where they're stored - someone will be able to advise you), but it's a pain, and you can't add new shortcuts to bookmarks that you've made in Opera 10 - only 9.7 and IE.
I personally got rid of the internet tab and just put Opera in the top row of my main page of quicklinks, so it's available from my home tab. Since it starts up with the "start grid" (unless configured otherwise), it's equally as good as the shortcuts on the opera tab.
Just a suggestion.

Is there a way to fix the web snapshot for the Internet thumbnail section if you remove one from the windows/temp folder by mistake. Because now it won't take a thumbnail web snapshot if I add to visual bookmarks

I deleted the one i had for BBC Football as i didnt like they image and now i cannot get an image to display for that favourite.......is there a register entry or something i need to clear to restore thing?
i think i might have found a way...place your favourite in internet tab, then, in order to have thumbnails, open pocket internet explorer, go to favorites and open web pages (the one placed on internet tab) and let them full load. if you close pie at this point you can see thumbnails in internet tab, tap on them and they will be opened with setted default browser, opera 10 in this case

I think I figured it out about this bookmark thing. I have notice in opera 9.7 that the little symbol next to web address that looks like a box with lines in it is all mess up. Now I don't know what that symbol represents but I think by fixing this it will fix the problem.
I have installed Opera 10. How do I get to add favourites in the favourites menu in Sense? Tried adding bookmarks in IE Favourites, but that didn't help.

Anyone who can help with this issue?
Open the Bookmark-URL in Internetexplorer and let the page be loaded fully. Then close Explorer and preview will be showed. Works not on all pages but most of them
Good luck
This is how I did it.
This worked on my Miri ROM. When I click on a blank internet tab shortcut it takes me to the Opera 9.7 bookmarks even after making Opera 10 my default. I had to switch back to 9.7 as default and set all of the sense tab shortcuts with images generated.
When you do this it creates a number of image files in the Windows/Thumbnail sub-directory with long coded names. It also creates an .icn file in Windows/Opera9/profile/Images, named as the www url name of the shortcut.
You then switch back to Opera 10 as default and Opers 10 uses the page image shortcuts. You can edit the Windows/Thumbnail images and save the new image with the same name and you will get the new thumbnail image directed to the same url it was originally associated with.
Set 9.7 as default in Settings/Advanced. You need to re-install 10 to set as default as it only asks on install.
The long coded names change with each assigned url. I do not know how they are generated or how they relate to the .icn files. If this process was known it might be possible to change the shortcuts without reverting back.
If your original default browser was IE you may have to do the same, but roll back to IE not 9.7.
I can only say this worked on the Miri ROM.
Opera Mobile 10 has a big advantage, it can sync bookmarks, speed dial icons and history with any Opera Link enabled desktop Opera. It's enough to use a portable version, that can import IE favorites as well. On top of that the password file (wand.dat) is also compatible.
I find it much more convenient to manage this data on my PC and then sync it to the PDA.
