    « on: April 29, 2009, 09:51:38 PM »
    I am useing the Opera Web Browser and need help.

    I go into Manage Bookmarks and open up Opera Bookmars and all my Bookmarks are in a list on the Right hand side.

    I try to Drag and Drop then in the order I want but I can't move them.
    How do you Move them in the order you want to put them in??

        I use Opera.

        That is a strange problem.
        I can move my bookmarks around by dragging and dropping them.

        Try this:
        In Manage Bookmarks, click on View. Make sure that Sort by my order is selected.

        Good luck!

          I whent to Manage Bookmarks and into Vue.
          And I see the dropdown list  sort by name  nick   Full Vue   Split Vue.

          I go don to were I see  Sort By Name  and I see  a white ring  with a Black dot in it.

          So I click on it and it takes me back to my Bookmarks  and I try to drag  my Bookmarks in the order I want and they look like I can grab theym but when I move them and let the mouse Button go it is not there and did not move.

          Is there something I am not doing like  a setting??

          All of my Bookmarks are in Bookmarks and then Opera.

            I think I know what is going on tell me if this may be why I can't move my Bookmarks in the order I want?

            I was useing Firefox and I exported my Firefox Bookmarks to the Desktop and then Un Installed Firefox.

            Then I Installed Opera and after Opera was Installed I whento to the File Tab in Opera and then Import Exprt and Imported my Firefox Bookmarks that I put on my Desktop.

            After this I whent into Bookmarks in Opera and the Dropdown List has Bookmarks for Internet Explorer  and Bookmarks for  Firefox  and Bookmarks for  Opera.
            Ok so all my Bookmarks whent into  the one that says Firefox Bookmarks.

            Now I wanted them to go into were it says Opera Bookmarks so this is what I did.

            I whent into Bookmarks and then Manage Bookmarks.
            Then on the Left Hand side I see all of the diferant places for Bookmarks to go  Internet Explorer   and  Firefox  and  Opera.

            So I click on Firefox  and there is all my Bookmarks so I Highited all of them and clicked CUT.

            Then I whent back to the left hand side and clicked on Opera  and pasted then in here.

            Is this why I can't Drag and drop them in the order I want  because they  sould be in were it says  Firefox Bookmarks?????????????????????????

                You might jsut want to unistall it. Then download a fresh copy and install that.

                When you click on the new tab button, all of your speed dial sites should be listed there.

                  I think I will do one thing at a time.

                  I need help setting up Speed Dial and I may not be doing it right or have a setting not set.

                  I thought Speed Dial was were you can have 2. Pages both come up on screen when you open Opera.

                  Now I just have googel set as my home page but this is what I would like to do.

                  I would like both googel and  ixquick  come up on screen when I open Opera.

                  Is this not what Speed Dial is??
                  And do I have to have my settings for Tabs set to open new window as Tab or any of the other settings??
