Backup Opera Mobile favorites?

[jonnythan]

Is there any way to do this? I just spent 20 minutes searching and found nothing.

If memory serves--\windows\opera9\opera6.adr. Or, at least *.adr.

Correct, copy this file to somewhere on your internal storage card and you've essentially just backed up your favorites...

*quick note: if you upgrade to a different build of opera at any point the file will work, you just may have to edit the name so that it is in all caps. you should only need to do this if the files in the \windows\opera folder show up in all caps as well.

Excellent, thanks

I have all my IE favorites in a folder, is there a way to import those into Opera or do I need to do each page manually?

You can copy the opera6.adr file to your pc with ActiveSync (or WMDC on Vista) and edit the file with notepad. Add your IE favorites, while maintaining the format of the existing Opera bookmarks, and then copy the file back to your phone.

The next time that you open Opera you will have all of the bookmarks from both Opera and IE.

Thank you.

Also, if you have Opera installed on your desktop, you can export your bookmarks and it exports as an opera6.adr file and you can transfer that to your phone as well.

If you use PIM Backup, you can edit the Custom backup to include \windows\opera9\opera6.adr and it works perfectly.

An other way is installing Opera on your computer and exporting the favorites there. The desktop version also uses the opera6.adr file. The plus side is the desktop version can easily import from IE and Mozilla..
