Good job.Thanks.

Crashes every time while preparing files for me, with StartIndex cannot be less than zero. After clicking continue nothing happens. Tried both from within Opera (9.5 final), and through OperaFlyWatch, same result. It also errored with the same message when starting OperaFlyWatch, but when I clicked continue it seemed to work.

The installer program will not download ! I keep being told it is a web page and not a zip file.

Great VJ that worked no problems here so far thanks for the program.

Unfortunately no it doesn't give a line number. But here's the Exception text, I hope it's of use for you.
Let me know if you need the list of Loaded Assemblies too.

Hi Vj, Installed 2.5 of Opera Fly and when I move my mouse pointer over the icon in the task bar OperaFly tells me Opera is not running! when it is.

Have I done something wrong ??

Regards
John

Now I get "Not enough storage is available to process this command."

And the details:

I get this error 2 times, then followed by the StartIndex cannot be less than zero error. When I get the Startindex error a folder named Working (with subfolders named Dynamic, mail, profile, Settings and widgets) is created in the program folder. I click ok, and I get a window with

Variables:
Lookfor = Local CSS File=
OperaDir = C:\Program Files\Opera
Userdir = C:\Program Files\Opera
ProfileDir = C:\Program Files\Opera\profile

When I press ok in that dialogue box it starts copying files, and it completes creating the backup.

Hope this helps.

Forgot to mention that I have 5GB free space on C.

Hi VJ, The Watching & Run backup when Opera closes are both greyed out I am sorry to say.

You're probably right that it didn't take a complete backup, I ran winrar with max compression on the profile, excluding the cache, and it was about 4MB bigger than the fly.

Sorry, still no line nr. The above was pretty much step by step with all the info available... I'll send you the fly in a moment.

Hi VJ, no sorry still the same.

I'm using XP SP2. I'll resend the file when I come home, about 7-8 hours from now.

Unfortunately I still get the same error. Maybe it's a problem with my net 2.0 install, I'll try and reinstall it and see if that fixes it. Sounds plausible if I'm the only one with this problem. I'll send you screenshots of the error messages if reinstalling doesn't help.

Thanks for making this really nice and useful piece of software btw, it's appreciated.

Ok, I'll skip on the reinstall then.

Before I forget, I configured a daily schedule backup yesterday and it either errored out silently or didn't run.

Oh and one more thing, I've configured the backups to use D:, but every time I go to run a manual backup it defaults to My Documents\OperaFly Backups. When I click on browse it jumps to the folder I set in settings.

Is there a way to limit how many backups are kept? Would be nice if I could get the prog to only keep the last 10 backups. Hope you understand what I mean.

Maybe the scheduled backup fails to run silently because of the error during manual backups, but that's just a guess... It's no big deal, take your time. As you said, the manual backup isn't affected.

I have been using Opera for several years and have installed the latest version... have managed to get almost everything moved over and want to back it up. The last few versions of OperaFly dont display properly for me. All menu items do not fully display for me. Parts of menu overlap each other and full menu is cut off by box. Cannot resize menu box. This happens on all menus and sub menus. Just tried the latest version of stand alone is the same. I have pix, but cant get them to paste here. Any help appreciated.

@ VJgamer... I am running Win XP Pro SP2 on a high-end laptop (Acer TravelMate 8204WLMi).

Just downloaded and tried a backup for Opera 9.5 in Vista Home Premium and got the following errors even though the backup appears to have run (have not checked its integrity yet):
First error that pops up after clicking on "backup":

Second error that pops up after you close out of first one:

@VJgamer:
I DID try out a javascript that was supposed to enhance tooltips, but removed the path to it because it did not seem to work so maybe that's what OperaFly is complaining about.

Thanks for all your hard work! It really is appreciated.

P.S. Anyway to get rid of the error messages?

@VJgamer:

First I want to echo creegah: "Thanks for all your hard work! It really is appreciated." Also, want to thank You for Your Prompt help to Your User Community.

Sure wish I could send You some pics... either here or by direct email. I cant see any way to send pix inline or as attachments here.

In Add or Remove Programs, I can see that .NET 2.0 is installed... as of 04/11/2008. Also, I see a .NET 3.0, but does not show as installed... Again, might be useful if I could send Pix.

@elderop
Try Jing. It works great and it's free - for now anyway. You do have to install a small jing app on your desktop but I find it's pretty unobtrusive and you can grab a picture and post it on their servers automatically for free.
(Not associated with Jing in ANY way; just discovered it about a week ago.)

@Creegah... Thanks.. Have had Jing since it was in beta.. just use it to save locally. I dont use photo sharing sites or social sites... call me paranoid, I just dont trust them.

I am having problems with the OperaFlyWatch 2.5. It has a problem. It is highlighted in the system tray all the time but the tool tip says that Opera isn't running.

I tried manipulating the settings and doing several types of reinstalls including a manual clearing of all copy's on my computer and reinstalling from a new download. The problem is that after that reinstall the problem remained.

OperaFly seemed to work fine. I am running Opera 9.50.

@VJgamer
I can't do a scheduled unattended backup because of those errors that pop up (mentioned in previous post). Any way to get rid of them?
I have to click the OK button on 2 pop up errors to proceed with the backup. :-(

Errors:
First error that pops up after clicking on "backup":
http://screencast.com/t/crdRV8X5
Second error that pops up after you close out of first one:

@VJgamer

Wonder if You received my email with pix of my corrupted menu problem? If You have had a chance to look at it, do You still think I need to re-install .net 2.0... and if so, is it necessary to first uninstall the current .net 2.0, or just install over it?

Thank You,
ElderOp

My Opera Watch is showing the top 2 Options greyed out, but it is configured to use the Opera default directory in program files.

PS
I will test the new versions OperaUSB support.

muchisimas gracias Tim Conner

thanks you Tim Conner

@VJgamer:

Sorry, still havent received any email from You at either of the email addresses I gave You. Maybe You could PM them here?

Thanks,
ElderOp

@VJgamer:

I put a "UserJS" folder into my Opera profile folder to place a javascript there and the error I was having disappeared so I guess it had something to do with my previously having tried to install a javascript into Opera and botching it up and then deleting it.

So no need to troubleshoot my problem. It magically got fixed.

Well I finally got my Opera/OperaFly/OperaFlyWatch working.

I don't know for a fact but I believe that when I installed Fx 3.0 for my backup browser when it was released and it forced me to manually take default browser back from it several times I think it caused some problem with Opera Fly and OperaFlyWatch.

I finally had to uninstall Opera and OperaFly and give default browser back to (ugh) IE and restart not once, but twice to get it to work after I reinstalled them.

I haven't been able to test the OperaUSB compatibility yet, renovations at a friend's and work have been getting in the way. I will try soon.

**************************
I spoke too soon.

Now it won't stop backing up every time I close Opera. The only diffrence I can think of is I accidentally double left clicked OperaFlyWatch while Opera was open and got a strange error.

At the time I was testing out the backup every close feature and the email feature. Now it will backup every time it closes unless I tell it not to.

When I tried uninstalling and reinstalling it did it even though the settings for OperaFlyWatch said it was disabled. When I reenabled it and disabled it OperaFlyWatch closed like it should.

I relaunched it and wiped all shcedules and unchecked the email backup function.

It still wants to back up opera every time I close it unless I manually tell it otherwise. It didn't do this the first time I installed the new version, but I was having problems... was it supposed to?

excelente herramienta gracias
