Getting bookmarks into Opera for iPhone

I'm trying to get bookmarks into Opera for iPhone, so I created an Opera Link account and imported my bookmarks (from Chrome) into that. I turned on Opera Link in the iPhone app, and it takes about 2 minutes to "synchronize". But I still have no bookmarks. I can see the bookmarks in Opera desktop and in Opera Link. What am I doing wrong?

same issue...on a pc, downloaded opera for it just for this purpose...imported from explorer...they show up fine in the pc opera, they show up fine in the opera link when accessed on the pc but nothing on the iphone front.

only thing i can think of is my bookmarks are organized into folders and sub folders...

What are actually synchronized and how:
On Opera 10.* browser, all your Opera Mini 5 bookmarks should be displayed in 'Opera Mini' folder. However, for some reason developers decided not to show desktop bookmarks in the same way under Opera Mini 5 bookmarks. To use and edit your desktop bookmarks on Opera Mini 5, add either speed dial or bookmark for Opera Link like this:
http://my.opera.com/YOUR_ACCOUNT_NAME_HERE/account/link/bookmarks/
In other words, you can access Opera Link and desktop bookmarks via MyOpera menu up there on this page up Just add shortcut for it into your Opera Mini speed dials or into bookmarks.

EDIT: Moreover...

Thx for the help
