How to get added favourites to show in Sense favorites when using Opera 10?

I have installed Opera 10. How do I get to add favourites in the favourites menu in Sense? Tried adding bookmarks in IE Favourites, but that didn't help.

Anyone who can help with this issue?

Open the Bookmark-URL in Internetexplorer and let the page be loaded fully. Then close Explorer and preview will be showed. Works not on all pages but most of them
Good luck

This is how I did it.

This worked on my Miri ROM. When I click on a blank internet tab shortcut it takes me to the Opera 9.7 bookmarks even after making Opera 10 my default. I had to switch back to 9.7 as default and set all of the sense tab shortcuts with images generated.

When you do this it creates a number of image files in the Windows/Thumbnail sub-directory with long coded names. It also creates an .icn file in Windows/Opera9/profile/Images, named as the www url name of the shortcut.

You then switch back to Opera 10 as default and Opers 10 uses the page image shortcuts. You can edit the Windows/Thumbnail images and save the new image with the same name and you will get the new thumbnail image directed to the same url it was originally associated with.

Set 9.7 as default in Settings/Advanced. You need to re-install 10 to set as default as it only asks on install.

The long coded names change with each assigned url. I do not know how they are generated or how they relate to the .icn files. If this process was known it might be possible to change the shortcuts without reverting back.

If your original default browser was IE you may have to do the same, but roll back to IE not 9.7.

I can only say this worked on the Miri ROM.

Opera Mobile 10 has a big advantage, it can sync bookmarks, speed dial icons and history with any Opera Link enabled desktop Opera. It's enough to use a portable version, that can import IE favorites as well. On top of that the password file (wand.dat) is also compatible.
I find it much more convenient to manage this data on my PC and then sync it to the PDA.
