How do I get the audio on some YTMNDs to loop? For example on this one it plays once and then never again: http://familyguyroundtable.ytmnd.com/

Unanswered from the previous thread. Both computers in question have Opera 9.62

My work computer keeps me logged into awfulyearbook.com despite the info not being in the Wand, as far as I can see.

My home computer doesn't remember the password, and neither do I. I'd like to know if there's a way to copy whatever file(s) necessary to get my AYB login working at home, I've tried doing the password reset but for some reason haven't gotten it to work.

Thanks, I can remote my work PC and file transfer, so I'll try it in a bit.

Okay so I copied the .dat file from my work PC to here, and AYB is logged in. So far, so good.

Now, there are two sites that give me trouble in Opera. They don't give me trouble at work, but even with my work PC's .dat file copied here, they still don't work right.

One is Gmail, which hasn't worked right since I switched to SSL encryption for the sessions (not just the login). The other is Delphi Forums.

Gmail just sits on the loading <sm8000>@gmail.com page, until I click Load HTML View. Delphi just prompts me to log in repeatedly.

Oddly enough, Chase Bank used to not work for me, but after an upgrade or two ago it works fine anywhere I try it.

Of all sites I would expect to know better, it's Google.

I just upgraded my laptop to 9.63, and this weird behavior still happens (seemingly only on my laptop) - when I click on a link to a picture, tabs start opening non-stop. I can stop it if I click madly to close them. The URL in them is:

file://localhost/C:/Program%20Files/Opera/profile/cache4/temporary_download/379761280%20(2).png

(Or whatever the filename of the picture is)

On the plus side, shortly after my last post complaining about Gmail, I found it had started working again.

I've got it set to Empty On Exit, but I went and cleared it anyway and then tried again. Same result. This has been happening for a few versions now (only on this computer) and I've tried basic remedies like emptying cache but nothing's helped.

Did you set Opera to open .PNG with "Opera Internet Browser" (or something titled like that) instead of "Opera"?

I found out when it's set to the first instead of the second, Opera will poo poo it's pants and try to open a million tabs.

That fixed it, thanks!

I was just looking at a large picture of a steak you posted in another thread, closed the tab and came back to this post. your avatar was in the same position and I got really freaked out.

Have you tried changing the UserAgent in site prefs as well? I generally use chrome for maps.google.com or loving load up google earth because hot drat. (it does directions pretty good too)

How do you change the User Agent? If that's the same as Browser Identification, I tried setting it to "Mask as IE" but it made no difference.

Here's something I've noticed lately:

I'm considering moving and I've been browsing apartment ads on Craigslist. Many of them have a link to the location on Google Maps. When I click this link, a new tab opens and begins to load the page, but after a few seconds I get "Still loading? Try basic HTML." I don't get this if I search for a location by hand. Actually, I do get this no matter how I use Google Maps. I think it might have something to do with it being stuck in satellite view? But the buttons to click and change it never get rendered.

EDIT: I went to Google Maps in IE and was able to change my view just fine there, now in Opera it also shows a Map view, but still times out before it's finished loading all the map stuff.

On my 1280x800 laptop, I run Opera at 1062x770 (per a quick screeshot). When I hit F11 to fullscreen a page or image, and then hit it again to revert back to windowed mode, the browser window is now maximized. Clicking on Restore Down doesn't change Opera out of maximized size.

I haven't checked to see if closing and reopening Opera reverts it to my preferred window size, but I'd like to know if there's a way to have Opera revert back to the normally used size when exiting F11 fullscreen mode.

I'm getting weird issues with Opera. First of all, Facebook:


Click here for the full 1036x194 image.


Their 'quick launch' bar no longer stays anchored, also there is no scroll slide on the right side.


Click here for the full 798x581 image.


When I try to log in, I get: "Logging in must go through the Facebook flow.
Please try again."

Finally, Opera occasionally locks up and crashes. Any ideas?

EDIT:
Version 9.64
Build 10487

EDIT II: Oh yeah, the Back button doesn't work in Facebook.

I'm still using 9.64 and I've never had any issues with Facebook. Do you have any userJS that might be messing with Facebook's? I also don't use any 3rd party apps so maybe one of those is the culprit.

Could be. I uninstalled and cleaned stuff out, then did a fresh clean install of 9.64 and all my website issues (Facebook et al) are gone. I guess I'll put in one UserJS at a time and see who breaks what.

Oh and I tried updating to the latest version too but the updater said I had the latest version. Guess it was broken too

Still using 9.64, all of the sudden today no images from SA are loading until I right click and re-load each individual image. I don't have this problem with other sites or other browsers, and closing and opening Opera didn't help. I can't find anything in Site Preferences that seems to be the culprit. Any ideas for fixing?

What UserJSes do you have?

What UserJSes do you have installed?

Honestly, my last install of 9.64 started being flaky with logins on a handful of sites, and I fixed it by uninstalling, deleting lingering files and folders, and then reinstalling. I preserved bookmarks and UserJSes, and now I run 9.64 with only a couple of JSes but otherwise 'out of the box' and everything works.

I seem to be getting some kind of weird problem whereby SomethingAwful Forum threads load only the banner ad at the top of the screen followed by the little copyright notice at the bottom of the page and that is all. I believe it's been limited to the 10.5 pre-alpha (as in, I haven't seen this in any other browser or Opera version). Anybody else getting this?

Is it only happening in Cinema Discusso? If so, there's a thread in QCS about it.

For me, I like the smooth scrolling better. Maybe I'm just used to it as I never turned it off before, or maybe it's that I'm on a laptop with a trackpad, including the scroll column on the right side.

Today I upgraded my work computer (Windows 2000) from 10.10 to 10.51, and I'm still having the same problem with Google Maps that I've had since at least 9.63, but only on this computer.

Suppose I search an address in Google, and then click Maps. The map will load, to a point, and then will eventually show "Still loading... Slow? Use the troubleshooting guide or basic HTML." I can make this happen immediately if I click on the map.

Also, how do you save images in Opera Mini?
