Importing bookmarks opera

Last edited by admin For the moment, the Bookmark Importer is made for importing only bookmarks in Opera Presto (the old Opera) (latest version of it is Opera 12.17). Now We are currently at Opera 22. My understanding is that Opera is working on making the Bookmarks Importer work with 3rd Party Browsers, like Firefox. I know it was initially being worked on for Opera 23, but at this point, I don't know whether that will be implemented in Opera 23 or later.So, the only way to get Firefox bookmarks into Opera at this moment is to piggyback on Opera 12.17 -- that is, get the Firefox bookmarks into that browser, and then to use the Bookmarks importer in Opera 22. If you're going to do that, I would suggest completely uninstalling Opera 22, and then installing Opera 12.17 first. Once using Opera 12.17, click on File, Import and Export, and then, Import Firefox Bookmarks. After you import Firefox Bookmarks into Opera 12.17, then re-install Opera 22. Hopefully at that point the Bookmarks Importer will not be greyed out. Because the Importer has been on occasion a bit tempermental, here's a thread that gives suggestions. Leocg's comment in the thread is important, and it is based on that comment that I suggest completely uninstalling Opera 22 first, and then installing Opera 12.17 (to accomplish the importing of bookmarks from Firefox). in Opera 22 (after the reinstallation), remember to activate the Personal Bookmarks Bar. Go Ctrl P (settings), and put a check in Show the Bookmarks Bar. And of course, click on the Opera Menu, More Tools, and the Bookmarks Importer.

Open the CSV file in a text editor to confirm your login info is there are correct. Then, in Opera, with the import flag mentioned earlier turned on, goto the URL opera://settings/passwords, click the 3 dots to the right of "saved passwords", and import the CSV file.For crashes, see this post. For someone to try and reproduce the crash when importing bookmarks my Chrome, your exact Chrome version details would be needed. And, your "Bookmarks" file in your Chrome profile folder would be needed. Also, your exported bookmarks.html file would be needed too if importing from the file causes a crash too.A bookmarks

They still do not sync day to day.Specs: WIN 10 laptop, importing from Chrome to Opera on same computer. Why not?Once bookmarks are imported, how can you refresh them later (EX: 1 month) to just update the changes and not the entire set of bookmarks? Is it possible to import and merge in order to eliminate duplicates?Many Thanks,AdB newbie leocg Moderator Volunteer last edited by After initial installation of Opera, I imported all my bookmarks.

After it have been done, you just add new bookmarks normally in Opera. fahim23f last edited by Hellowhen i change my windows so i forgot to save my bookmarks.is there a way to get back my bookmarks by my account sgunhouse Moderator Volunteer last edited by Only if you had enabled sync on the old system. If sync wasn't enabled the Opera's servers don't know what your bookmarks were. If sync was enabled, then enable it again on the new system - after a short delay your old bookmarks will appear.Though you shouldn't post new topics in other people's threads; you should have started a new thread for your question. yewgen43 last edited by Hello! I registered an account and logged Opera in it on three devices (laptop, tablet, smartphone). The goal was to synchronize bookmarks favorites and authorization information (usernames and passwords). However, synchronization is disabled. Nothing of what I have on the laptop nothing appears on the tablet or smartphone and Vice versa. I can not understand when a guaranteed authorization in the account what else can be problem with synchronization? What is in this case generally is sync and that it synchronicity?Thanks... leocg Moderator Volunteer last edited by Too many hijacks in this topic. Closing it.

Is there any way to import into Opera bookmarks exported from another browser and preserve the bookmarks sub folder structure of the source?My Firefox installation has tons of bookmarks all organised into folders - manual re-organisation would be out of the question.Opera 60. k1llua @Guest last edited by @redsnapper have you tried importing those Firefox bookmarks unto Opera?because most browser export bookmarks as HTML and folder structure from Firefox should be preserved (they're pretty much similar). unless its some Firefox specific feature (like speed-dial folders in Opera) wont be directly displayed but you can always find the stuff that wasn't categorized under the bookmarks manager A Former User @k1llua last edited by @k1llua I managed to get bookmarks across by sorting them in FF and then going via IE. Not sure why it didnt want to work straight FF html export and import to Opera - maybe html file got corrupted somehow.Now I have bookmarks in Opera (under Imported folder) there does not seem to be any effective bookmark manager (like FF) to organiise bookmark structure tree i.e. no facility to mark and move groups of selected bookmarks/folders - or am I missing something? Maybe an extension is needed? leocg Moderator Volunteer @Guest last edited by You should be able to do it in the bookmarks page: Menu > Bookmarks > Bookmarks or Crtl Shift B or click on the heart icon in the sidebar. A Former User @leocg last edited by @leocg In the bookmarks folder tree you can only drag a single folder. Likewise

I created a HTML file in Firefox and then went to Opera settings and click on Import Bookmarks and opened the HTML file.However, my imported bookmarks are displayed under 'Bookmarks (10th option on Menu), Imported Bookmarks folder' but not under 'Bookmarks' (4th option down, 'Imported Bookmarks.'Why is that? gustavwiz last edited by Yes. that's a known bug. It has nothing to do with importing, no one can see ones bookmarks there. We will have to wait for a fix. sporty78 last edited by Until the bug is fixed then, is the only way to view imported bookmarks by going to 'Bookmarks (10th option on Menu), Imported Bookmarks folder?'I must have installed a new version of Opera because the previous version displayed bookmarks under 'Bookmarks' (4th option down, 'Imported Bookmarks.') lando242 last edited by The current version of Opera, which was release just a few days ago, has a bug regarding the displaying of bookmarks. It will be fixed in the next release, probably within the next week. sporty78 last edited by Thanks!Will the fix be installed automatically when it is released? sporty78 last edited by When released, will the fix automatically be installed as part of the automatic update?Will bookmarks automatically show under 'Bookmarks' (4th option down, 'Imported Bookmarks) or will they have to be transferred to Bookmarks (10th option on Menu), Imported Bookmarks folder?' leocg Moderator Volunteer last edited by When released, will the fix automatically be installed as part of the automatic update?Yes, it will be part of the release. gustavwiz last edited by Until the bug is fixed then, is the only way to view imported bookmarks by going to 'Bookmarks

--> Chrome may be one of the most popular browsers out there, but that doesn’t mean everyone is going to use it. You may not trust Chrome when it comes to privacy or just want to try something new.Whatever the reason is, Opera also has a lot to offer, and you also get to enjoy its excellent design as well. But, one thing that may have prevented you from moving was the doubt on how you were going to transfer all of your bookmarks from Chrome. Let’s see how you can do that.The first thing you’ll need to do is open Opera and paste the following in the search bar: Opera://settings/importData.You’ll see a pop-up with options of what you want to import and from what browser you want to import them from.At the drop-down menu at the top, you’ll see options containing the names of the browsers you currently have installed. Make sure that Chrome is selected.Under the section Select items to import, check what content you want to import from Chrome. If you change your mind and want to leave something out, just uncheck that option. You have the option of importing things such as:Browsing historyFavorites/BookmarksSaved passwordsCookiesIf you prefer, you also have the option of importing your bookmarks in the form of a Bookmarks HTML File. You’ll see this option in the browser drop-down menu.To finish up the process, click on the blue import button, and you’re good to go.ConclusionThe process shouldn’t take very long, and it’s usually smooth sailing. You can now have all your Chrome bookmarks in Opera and enjoy your fresh start. What made you leave Chrome for Opera? Share your thoughts in the comments below.
