Software :: Cannot Activate Wand In Opera Browser?
May 14, 2011
The version is 11.01 & the build is 1190. I've filled some fields at the Forms tab > Preferences > Settings > Menu. Attached to this post is an image of those fields. I can't press Ctrl+Enter to activate the wand, I don't know if there's another method. Forms tab > Preferences > Settings > Menu
I've always used the repos at [URL] to get Opera both on Lenny and Squeeze. So my sources.list has this line: deb [URL] lenny non-free
But now I see these has not been updated since november 2009. Is there a newer repo somewhere? I know you can download opera from the opera website - but that is too much work when you have many computers to manage.
I have another opera browser problem,i upgraded to version 10.53 build 6330 last week. it keeps crashing the cpu goes to 100% and wont come down, i had this problem with the previous version but its a lot worse with the new version. also noticed that when browsing ebay the scroll is very jerky until you get about a third of the way down the page then it scrolls ok again. i get the feeling the crashes are something to do with the flash player. i tried to uninstall flash but i cannot get it to uninstall .
I am going to try Opera for 64-bit first since it is currently my favorite browser.Will this be the beginning of the end of all those flash related questions and problems?
Today I added more fonts to ~/.fonts directory. I launched Opera and the fonts are gone funny [image attached]. I don't have this problem in Firefox of Google Chrome/Chromium. I changed fonts in Opera >> Preferences but to no avail. Also I deleted .opera directory. No joy. The only solution I've found is to delete .fonts directory (but I want those fonts for other applications).
The thing is that flash sucks for linux on 64-bit, performance vice. Due to this I actually download every clip to a temp folder and play the file while it's being downloaded with mplayer. This works really nice. Flash is not to play a video. Does there exist a plugin for this for any browser? I tried google, but I can't find the right words to search for. Edit: I did find a plugin for playing wmp things, that is not what I'm asking for!
i'm trying to install adobe flash player so i can view ..... videos in opera browser. without going into detail i have tried every possible way from all various instructions, even in the initial install it is suppose to install the flash player plugin from the software centre
I have been using a little inexpensive Acer, mainly to retrieve e-mail and to browse the web. I normally work on a Mac platform ( I am a designer). A week ago the Acer took a dive from the counter top to the carpet. (not the first time). Since then (coincidence?) the mail function works fine, but the browser does not go on. What should I do?
When I tried to log in this morning I couldn't until I enabled Java scripts in my Opera browser. This must be something "new and improved". Could someone confirm this? I would prefer "old and lousy" rather than open up my computer to the world at large.
1. My Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala always going slow when i Open OPERA Browser. Is it Normal? 2. Sometimes i got my Karmic Animation like a... i dont know, just play it slower than usual. Is it Normal?
I was using Compiz Animation. [minimize, maximize, close, etc] Is that thing make my Karmic running slow?
This problem one day popped out of nowhere in my ubuntu 9.04 firefox browser that I could not submit my reply on any forums. So I changed my browser to epiphany and then to opera but all failed then I installed arora and it worked. I don't know what is the problem with other browsers I just cannot submit a reply on any forums.
I look at other threads where 10's 100's even 1000's of people view them and in most cases at least one or more people respond / reply.I put this thread up about 10 hours ago. Almost 50 people viewed it.I was way over tired and frustrated and probably rambled too much.I have this funky computer with a pt800ce-a mother board.I have a 500GB SATA hard drive with lots of files on it.I have this wonderful Ubuntu installation that sees the "Unallocated" disk.All I want to do is learn how to wave the magic wand so Ubuntu will mount the disk.
i just updated from karmic 9.10 to lucid 10.04 using the online upgrade option. so far everything is working great. the only issues i am having seem to involve firefox. when i visit videos i get the message "your browser is no longer supported. please upgrade to a modern browser." i am running 3.6 "canonical" so it is "modern". i am able to watch videos after i close the message. it's just an annoyance to get this message every time i view a video.
next, is on some websites (like this one) it will not supply my login info. but on a few sites (like ebay) it does supply my login info. not sure why some sites work while others don't. the info is there when i look under my saved passwords....
I'm surfing along just fine when I select some link in my browser.The status line reports "... waiting for ..." and the browser seems to stall for a long time (minutes). Often, but not every time, I can select the STOP toolbar icon and reload the page. This time things work normally.
I have a similar but different malfunction running Evolution email connected to my hosted IMAP server. I select a message and see "... formatting ..." and then Evolution seems to stall for a long time (minutes). Rarely the stop-reload actions help reading email. Instead,all Evolution windows go dark grey and the entire desktop stalls.[Analysis -- It has the feel of a "network" issue provoking issues within Evolution itself rather than an Evolution-only malfunction.]
Watching the running system with 'htop' and similar, I do not see where some other application or service is sucking all of the available CPU time or such. [Analysis -- It has the feel that either the browser message or the email message were sent into limbo without reaching their intended destination. Stop-reload sends the bits to the right places and so I get results.]
First of all I want to tell you that I'm not used to working with fedora so don't exlude 'noob solutions' out of your answers.I've downloaded the latest opera from their site and tried to install it. When I did this using the given script it asked me to install it in the base directory /usr/ . I had my doubts but I agreed. (Does it have to be installed in the root directory? / )Now when I trie to run it, I receive the following message:
[Kurt@localhost ~]$ opera /usr/bin/opera: line 240: /usr/lib/opera/10.10/opera: cannot execute binary file /usr/bin/opera: line 240: /usr/lib/opera/10.10/opera: Success
For some reason, i cannot set my default browser to Chromium. Whenever i open up Chromium, it asks whether it should be the default browser or not. I say yes i mean "Set as default" But nothing happens. When i open it again, i am greeted with the same question again.
I've installed Sun's Java and set it up so that is working in Firefox. But recently Ive changed to Opera, and was wondering how to set Java to work with Opera. I've already marked Tools>Preferences>Advanced>Content>Enable Java.
I like to add a Newsgroup but it seem that I can't. Is this correct? I did a look up but found nothing really to this issue. Anyway, I just need to know if this is the case. I am using 10.61.
