I am having the same problem. I can change it from public to private, but I cannot change the password. If I type a new one I get the save button, but the settings are not updated.

The page is refreshing every five seconds. If you're quick, and copy/paste the password from elsewhere, it does get updated.

Greetings ,

The first thing that you want to do is Log on and start Opera Unite .Then go the the open button at the top of the Unite Panel and push it.

The Admin Home page tab should pop up. If not, select OperaUnite home.

When homepage tab opens, you will have access the Admin functions in Unite.

To be sure you are in the right page check your address bar in Opera, it should read http; // Admin.home .username.Operaunite.com/content

Now visit your file share Application .

To change to a password , key in the your new Password ..Your should see a save button appear , use you Keyboard enter key instead the save button to save.

You may have to repeat this several times before it sets .

It is a know bug in the system and had been reported .

You may also have to toggle between Public and Private to make it saves the new password.

Do make sure that the Password you selected is displayed as saved and stays in the password field before you close or it will revert back to the last Password Entered.



Cheers !

Hi RomDos,

Thanks for the reply but once I am in the file share application there is no field/area/space etc to actually type anything in. So I can follow you all the way up to

"To change to a password .....

but can't actually type anywhere.

Cheers

Could you take a screen shot of that entire page and attach to this thread?

Naturally to add to the confusion I am not having any problem with changing the password nor other problems mentioned in this thread.scared

Hi guys,

Here is a picture of my Opera Unite home page. As you can clearly see I am in the admin page and I have privacy options displaying anywhere.

Thanks again for your responses.

Sorry but it is not being attached... Just in case, you can do the following to attach a graphic in your text:
  • Select the Attach files: "Upload File" button
  • Select a file that you want to upload via "Choose" button
  • Click 'upload file' via the "UPLOAD FILE" Button
  • Click the below button "ATTACH File" button to attach "your photo.jpg" into your text

Thanks in Advance...

I have already been through the process you outline so here goes again.

I am a little confused. You wanted to know where to change the File Sharing server password but the jpg that you loaded is the Opera Unite Home page. You need to double click the File Sharing or right click on it and select "Open". You will scroll down the page and you will see the password fields there.

Look at RomDos's two jpgs OperaUniteFileshare01.JPG and OperaUniteFileshare02.JPG in this thread. The 01 jpg is the top of the File Sharing page and 02 the bottom where the password field are displayed.

Hope this helps...
Thanks in Advance...

Well you got that far,
Now visit your file share Application, that is where the password function is for that Application . Or if you would like to add a password to the media player pictured in your jpg you must visit media player. the same applies to any other application you "must" visit it as a admin to get to the admin functions of that application.next time you get that far try clicking the visit button and see what you get then.

Cheers!!

Hi RomDos,

I have been visiting it all the time but never had the password option until now. So for the first time I see it.

Thanks for all your efforts.
