I am getting a 401 Authorization Required when I try to edit my comments

It's nice.

I have now a new MacBook and i am a new Mac user, but i am a long Opera user and i use Opera also on the MacBook. And now i will test the new 10er Alpha and parallel to actual Opera 9 installation.

Do you have a tip for me. Or a best practice for this situation?

Thank you
Alexander

@Chas4: thanks, I've notified the My Opera people.

@xmenclassic: no worries, it's preconfigured to be run in parallel with your default profile. Just rename the file, install and run it as usual

blaabjerg it did not work this morning, but it does now

I am waiting for the upate to apear on Opera 10's update checker

Any idea why so many people find it so stable?

ps I tried Opera link with 10 and had no problems

Does the mac native skin run faster than the Opera one for anybody?

Sad to say that the crash bug after clicking "ok" in several dialog boxes on Mac OS X Leopard is not fixed

For example:

1) Open http://acid3.acidtests.org
2) Click "A" letter in "Acid3" word
3) Dialog box appears
4) Click "ok" and Opera crashes

The bug was reported by me right after Opera 10 launch. Bug #240811

This crash bug also prevent me from setting snapshot autoupdate.

I don't know whether to file this as a bug as it's more of a feature request than anything (as it's never worked), but in the skinning system you cannot set a hover, pressed, or selected status on any mini icon. For example neither of these would work:

Go.mini.hover = interface/clear/16x16.png
Go.mini.pressed = buttons/dark/small/go.png
Go.mini.selected = buttons/dark/small/go.png
Go.mini.selected.pressed = buttons/dark/small/go.png

But this replaces the usual 80% smaller icon with a 16x16 icon of my choosing:

Go.mini = buttons/light/small/go.png

Opera 10.0 is amazingly fast. It makes it really hard to use 9.6 at all. You all have done an excellent job.

Has anyone else been able to run the Opera 10 Alpha on OS X 10.3.9? I'm still unable to get it to run on it. Everytime I try I get a dialog saying "The application Opera has unexpectantly quit."

It's strange. Even though I downloaded the current file (12/29/08) called o100a1_6166.dmg (the Opera 10.00.6166 build--the one that was to fix the 10.3 crashes) from Opera's own http://www.opera.com/browser/next/ webpage, if I use the Finder's "Get Info" command on the unarchived file, it tells me that the build is the "Opera 10.00.5166" instead. Is the .6166 build on Opera's website? Maybe there was a mixup. Thanks.

Opera 10 alpha 1 and alpha 2 for Mac OS X (tested with 10.5.5 and 10.5.6):

1. Right click on a image
2. Save Image...
3. Open Finder -or- Path Finder
4. Right click on downloaded image
5. Get info
6. Information show: Open with "Opera" instead of "Preview"

Unable to reproduce this problem with Firefox and Safari. Can somebody confirm?

Why Opera 10 create legacy -creator and -type attributes with all saved images?

Great news for OS X 10.3.9 PPC users: the Opera 10 Alpha download link at the top of this page (labeled "Download build 6186") works great with OS X 10.3.9.

However, the Opera 10 download link on http://www.opera.com/browser/next/ doesn't look like it's been updated yet. If you pass your mouse over the download link on that page, it still shows (in your browser's status bar) a file named o100al_6166.dmg (the 6166 build).

When I used that link the last time, I downloaded a file named o100a1_6166.dmg (supposedly the build 6166 file), but in actuality it was the build 5166 file instead. Whatever the case, it wouldn't run on my OS X 10.3.9 Power Mac and as I have a modem, I wasn't looking forward to try another 45 minute download from that link again just to see if it works.

I hope the Opera people update the http://www.opera.com/browser/next/ link to the 6186 build as well. The good news is the 6186 build on this page ("Download build 6186") works great on 10.3.9

A rather cool release, but now it's time for OP 10a2 or 10b1pre!

Hallo Blaabjerg,

Its not possible for me to rename Opera.app before install.
I tried to rename in INFO of the file, but the name is grey and not to edit.
How do you rename this Opera.app?

thanks, Joppe

It is possible, Joppe. Drag the file to your desktop, rename it to something like "Peregrine" and drag it to the Applications folder or thte applications folder shortcut in the disk image's window.

you could also do what I do and that is to make a folder named Opera 10 and place opera 10 in there

Really good snapshot. I have fixed all my non loaded images or mixed images by disabling pipelining ! But the cold startup stays very slow. As slow as Firefox on my Macbook Leopard. On Windows, Opera is opened instantaneous.

Well,

I tested the new 10 series alpha a while ago and switched completely to it after a few days. Way "snappier" interface (than Safari4/Webkikt's latest), no stability issues whatsoever (latest Leopard). The only thing I'm (desperately) missing atm is keychain integration. That's really a drawback, imho. Any chance we will see keychain support again in the near future?

Keep up the good work!

Bulky I am sticking with 9.63 as my main as 10 is still an Alpha and it is not its fastest. So when I do start to use 10 (final) as my main I will see the big speed bost. I do admit the first time I tested the Alpha I was surprised at how stable it was I almost forgot it was an Alpha.

Hi, I am not sure if this is the right place to post this, but it's an emergency: Since this morning my opera mail client doesn't start up anymore. This is particularly bad because I also use Opera when running my start-up company, and all my mails, drafts, notes, and contacts are in there Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Here is the problem:
- I am running Opera 9.63 on Mac OS X 10.4.11
- When I try to start Opera, a little window appears that lets me choose "Continue from last time", "Continue with saved session", "Start with home page", "Start with blank page". When I choose any radio button and press the "OK" button, the window stays there, and after a one or two second delay, an eternal, never-ending loading process starts (basically, the mouser pointer turns into the rainbow-colored turning wheel).
- I should say that I have been using Opera for years and this has never happened before. I have not changed anything prior to this new problem.
- The problem seems to be with the mail client. In that first window I mentioned, there is also a "help" button, and when I click that one, I can go into a browsing mode. I don't have access to my mail, though.
- The problem seems to be with two files called omailbase.dat and omailbase.dat-j - they are going crazy when I try to start Opera

I have tried reinstalling Opera, didn't help, now I'm quite at loss what to do next...
Any suggestions?
Thanks a lot,
greetings from Vienna,
Sebastian

someone alive?

Yep

anyone else trying Opera 10 beta 3 on their Mac?

Certainly! 6612/6613 messed with me for a day or so… Then 6618 came out: Smooth sailing, from there.
Besides the Desktop Team's blog, there's a Mac forum and the beta testing forum. See ya there…

I had not seen 6618, downloading now

I'm now using 6652/6693… It sure would be nice to hear from the Mac Team again.

(In the meantime, don't think me ungrateful for your efforts.)

I am using Opera 10.01 now is anyone else?

Just installed 6746 myself: Blazingly fast and responsive. I've got to begin to put it through its paces, but at first glance it looks like a winner.

Who knows, this one may temporarily cure me of MOIS (Multiple Opera Installation Syndrome)!? [Two or three isn't really multiple, is it?]

Mac Team's blog looks dead ...
