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.

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

I have PHM regedit on my hp..
When opening links from the email program, it originally went to Opera. Now it goes to IE. In between, I installed and uninstalled Skyfire, but specifically told it I did _not_ want Skyfire to be the default browser. I'm not sure why it would have changed the default to IE in the process.
Now, I actually kind of prefer IE being the default for internet links (it opens faster), but I would like to know where the change for this (in the registry somewhere, I would think?) It would be nice to know so I could change it in the future.
I forgot to mention - Opera is still what launches from TF3D.
Hi guys, need some more help again.
How do I import the WMP playlist on my PC to my HTC Touch Pro running WM 6.1?? No matter what i do, the Windows Media Player on the phone just doens't detect the playlist at all. What I did was, simply copy & paste the playlist created on my PC to my phone, then I load up Windows Media Player on my phone and tried to find and locate the playlist, but it doesn't show up.
2nd problem is, I want to import all my Opera bookmarks from my PC to the phone. I know the default location for the Opera folder is here:
main memory/Windows/Opera9
and the bookmark is saved as opera6.adr. I'm familliar with all this as I use Opera on the PC for a long time already. So, I imported the bookmark from my PC to Windows/Opera9 and then load up Opera on the phone and chose "Favourites", and sure enough my boomarks showed up but not all of it. In fact, it's kinda screwd up, it shows the 4 of the same folder with the same content, and the other folders and bookmarks aren't there.
I.e, it doesn't show all my bookmarks, barely all of them actually, only a few.
BTW i have also looked at this page here and did everything but still the same problem:

Don't want to make another topic so i'll just append my new problem here, since my phone is in chinese, most of the apps are in chinese as well.
I want to keep the phone in chinese but use most apps in english. For most 3rd party apps, they are installed in english OR they have the option to let you choose what language to install as, which is great.
BUT, for Google Maps, it doesn't have the option and when i installed it, it's in chinese.......i downloaded from the Google Maps homepage which is english but it just shows up as chinese on my phone.....
is there a way to fix this? Maybe changing the registry code so that it shows english?? I think some 3rd party apps will automatically set the language according to the phone's default language.......that's probably why...
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'm trying to get my bookmarks restored from myBookmarks Pro. Normally (on any other Android phone I've ever had), you upload the Firefox Bookmarks HTML Export file to www.rerware.com and then on your device it downloads them to my device, adds them to Web Browser and all is fine.
Now with the Infuse it's adding them, but I can't see them. In other words, when I go into my bookmarks in the browser, it only shows the 4 ATT bookmarks they force on me (which I don't seem to be able to delete - grrrr), but not the ones I just imported. But if I begin to type the bookmark name or press search and type the site I want to go to, it's go the bookmarks based on search result, but I want them in the bookmarks list.
Seems like AT&T is somehow controlling my bookmarks... Ideas?
