Just SA? Sounds like you're set to Cached images only - check the View menu and see what Images are set to.

Or it could be a UserJS too, though I don't know of any that'd do that.

Or a CSS file.

Ah, that was it. Set to cached images only. Not sure why the problem didn't show up until today, though. Thanks.

Alright, what I want is very simple: to be able to pull up results from the address bar by searching titles without it searching the loving content of the web page. That's it. When you disable "Remember Content on Visited Webpages", this feature seems to disappear.

Opera is so drat good, it is by far the best browser, but this is the one thing that keeps me from using it as my main, non-development browser. Help?

Requoting this. I really want this resolved.

Another thing to check for crash problems: plugins.

Look at the plugins list (opera:plugins) to see if there's anything naughty. If there is, remove 'em. I removed a bunch a month or so ago that I never realized were getting loaded and havn't had Opera crash since. I've removed or disabled basically anything unnecessary, leaving only Flash and Silverlight (+ WPF) enabled.

When I click on a link (Opera Beta 10) for iTunes, I get a few popups resulting in the final one saying "No registered applicatoin for this extension."

How can I get Opera to handle iTunes links?

Unless I'm misunderstanding you, I believe going to opera:config and unchecking "addressbar content search" will do what you want.

Same thing. This disables searching both the title as well as the on-page text, only enabling searching by the beginning of the URL.

Ok, both of my Opera 9.64 installs on two completely different machines decided to crash yesterday and delete all my sessions, including the auto-saved ones. Since I use open tabs as soft bookmarks, that's a bit of a pain in the rear end. Has this happened to anyone else, or did I just have really poo poo luck yesterday?

It happens very rarely to me due to Opera just plain overloading. For that purpose i have a little batch file in my quick launch menu that copies the contents of the session folder elsewhere as soon as Opera does crash. That way i can usually restore a good state from one of the .bak files even if it does eat the session file.

Preferences (ctrl-f12) -> 'advanced' tab -> 'programs'. If there's not already an entry for 'itms', click 'add' (if there is, 'edit').
Protocol: itms
Open with other application: C:\program files\itunes\itunes.exe (edit if necessary)
Parameter: /url

For me, itunes obviously regged 'itms://' with windows, since it automatically filled in that path (plus a "%1") in the 'default app' entry, but I get the 'no registered app' error if I use that option.

Thank you!!

Now one other bug I'm getting. I've got automatic redirection enabled in my preferences, yet Opera isn't redirecting urls. It just sits at an ugly page saying something like "This URL was redirected. You may enable redirection in your preferences."

I did that, dummy.

This is what happens when you try to go to something that's URLFiltered, it's redirecting it to nothing so it can't redirect.

Generally means the site is an Ad server or Malware.

no amount of clearing cookies, restarting, or masking as IE does a bit of good.

I did at my university and it seemed to work fine. Have you tried simply refreshing the page a couple of times? That worked for me with my e-mail, which didn't seem to load the first time.

RC time! It takes over the main Opera path and upgrades your 9.x now instead of using the beta path, so if you want to keep 9.64 for now you should probably not install this yet.

Thanks for the heads up. I don't really like the new Opera icon though. The old one seemed fancy with the shadow and lighting but the new one feels low res. All I can think is "that's one red cheerio"

But having been using the betas up to now I really like this new release. It hasn't crashed in forever and, for at least the time being, it seems to close with some expediency which is cool. And the little changes they made to how it handles things finally let me move to a single bar solution with a button for menus, address, and tabs all on one line without anything too clumsy.

Hey, can someone tell me if this RC lets you log into Youtube properly? Because since they changed the site like a week ago 9.64 no longer works there, and if this fixes that bug I think it's time to hop on the 10 bandwagon.

...really? Then what the gently caress. I have cookies enabled, nothing blocked on the site, and anytime I log in it just redirects me to the front page of the site with "Create Account/Sign In" still in the corner, mocking me.

I can't even think it's a cache thing since that would make Youtube the only site having this issue and my cache settings told to refresh anything it can.

I'll try the release candidate and see if that does a drat thing, I guess.

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.

Absolutely none. The only editing of sites I use is blocking any ad server that trips Avast's filter and I leave it at that.

I'm slightly shite at this sometimes.

Hell, maybe I should just try that reinstall thing and see if that cleans it up.

I can't say that this is necessarily the case but I've found I had tremendous trouble with logging into Yahoo mail because they've got a magic nest of sites they funnel you through in the login process. And I found that the "only sites I visit" thing is really drat specific in only taking from the address you're currently on.

At the very least, you might try relaxing it to "accept all cookies" and try logging in and then set it back the way you want. At least at that point you'll have the cookie you need.

RC1 just came out and lo and behold: RC2 is here already!

quote:

We are still on track for a release on Tuesday, but we have managed to fix a few important crash bugs, and also have a couple of fixes for pages that never stop loading ("NSL"). Please let us know if the "NSL problem" has improved or not!

Apart from that, we have fixed some icon issues on Windows and Unix, and widgets should be working again after upgrading from Opera 9. There are also a few other fixes, so take a look at the changelog for more details.

We do not have an updated Unite build this time around since we are focusing on getting Opera 10.0 out the door. The build will not be available as an automatic update either, since it's Friday.

Note: Some Unix builds may be missing, but they may be uploaded later

Highlights
A couple of possible fixes for pages that never stop loading (NSL)
Stability fixes
Native skin fixes
Widgets should work when upgrading from 9.64
Icon fixes for Windows and Unix

So this update installed Opera in Program Files/Opera instead of Program Files/Opera Preview. It doesn't carry over my bookmarks and settings like the other updates did.

What do I need to copy/paste over from the Opera Preview folder to get my settings back?

Edit:

Specifically, I'd like to move over my mailbox and mail settings, speed dial, bookmarks, keyboard and mouse shortucts, and toolbar setups.

Should be able to copy C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\Opera Preview\Opera to the regular Opera folder. Recommend backing up the folder before overwriting, just in case.
