I found this info here (in German) and thought I would pass it on, since I haven't found anything about it in this forum.
1) Export your FF or IE bookmarks to your PC (bookmarks.html)
2) Install Opera 9.xx on your PC
3) import the bookmarks.html file from step 1
4) make any changes you want in Opera, then close Opera
5) Go to C:\Documents and Settings\"USER NAME"\Application Data\Opera\Opera\profile
and find a file called Opera6.adr
6) Copy this file to your Touch HD into the following directory:
My Device\Windows\Opera9
It will replace the Opera6 file that is currently on your Touch HD, and you should now have those bookmarks in OperaMobile.

Ahhh - search IS my friend - and this time my friend let me down!
I had searched and found nothing. I'll have to have a word with my "friend".
Thanks for the link. I checked it, but there it said it doesn't work.
Also, I noticed that Windows Mobile Device Center, has an option to sync favorites with the phone. Anyone know if that will do it? Or do I first have to import Firefox bookmarks into IE?

Well it worked for me!

Device centre will only sync your desktop IE with your pocket IE (NOT Opera Mobile... rather annoyingly).
I might be wrong on that tho... I have given up on Opera now in favour of PIE/PIE+, largely due to it's better rendering of forums like this (got fed up with fingerscrolling around to find page buttons and finger flick RSI for long pages.
Just as an aside, in Vista, the Opera6.adr file can be found at:
Code:
C:\Users\*name*\AppData\Roaming\Opera\Opera\Profile
Here's a method which works (and it's free):
1. go to www.xmarks.com, create an account and download their plugin for your browser. Xmarks supports IE, Firefox and Safari. I use this to sync all my bookmarks between my work and home pc and it works flawlessly. You can create profiles to sync only certain bookmarks between different pc's eg. you may not want your work stuff on your home pc etc.
2. On your mobile enter "mobile.xmarks.com", log in to your account and, bingo, you can access all your bookmarks. I just did this a few minutes ago and it was a doddle to set up.
Whilst you don't have your bookmarks living in your bookmarks folder on your phone you at least have easy access to them via xmarks - and they're always in sync. And you don't have to enter the data twice!
Hi,
I am looking for an app for passwords (encrypted) with the possibility of import via txt-file.
Any suggestions?
Hi...
look for KeePass this app exists for WM ans also for windows, I never needed this option, but you can import from csv and several txt-files
Hi all,
I'm looking for an App similar to Spb Wallet as in terms of password protected for both the PC & handset.
Please advice.

I am using KeePassDroid.
It is open source and FREE.
It has desktop version too.
Yes, good application, but not very flexible,I' ve tried it before buying other app.

I think SplashID is a good app, but it is too expensive for me at $10 + $20 (desktop version), just for password management.
KeePass is FREE the desktop one is also FREE.
But yeah, there is no sync tool that works OFFLINE.
However, KeePass has sync plugin using online storage like DropBox, etc:

Or you can simply do like this:

Synching, wirelessly, for free ...

Is there a Keepass for mac? cus otherwise i carnt sync?
eWallet have released a viewer for Android, so if you've got the desktop eWallet you can sync with your Desire. I think eWallet is about $20.
I dont like this eWallet approach because most of the time I will use my phone to add/update entries (work related).
Then go home and sync it with the desktop, mainly for backup.

Yeah, I know exactly what you mean. With my diamond I updated everything on that then sync'd with the PC, but I've got so much in setup already this is the simplest / quickest option.
We could just create a "batch file" that copy the database (.kdb) from the phone sd card to the desktop (replacing the desktop .kdb).
This way, the desktop will always be synced in a "cheap" way.
Or we can create 2 batch files, to copy the other way around
Yupe, batch file, put in the desktop ... 1 click and you are done.

you can use firewallet...it's available in 2 ways: the legal one, and the other one ).
or you could also try SplashID which has a Mac or Win Desktop client as well- www.splashdata.com/android

Thanks for the suggestions. SPB Wallet is unfortunately not a solution for everyone, is anything?. Here's info you should know before purchasing as i did. Finding help with the program is difficult if at all possible. The user's manual is nearly useless, it ignores several features and there is no step by step or tutorial that i can find. For example, i was able to get the program to attach a txt file to a card (something that is a workaround as i didn't want to spend a week typing all my passwords into fields). Great! unfortunately that's all it does, the file is not secured & it can't be opened by the program. Why would i want to attach a file to a wallet and it not be secure? If it is possible it's all but impossible to find instructions on how to do it on the web or SPB's web site. As a workaround i tried to copy and paste to the card's 'notes' field, stymied again, the program truncated my 22k text file. Be aware this program is not without it's faults. I will try some of the suggestions here in an effort to find a solution to securing a small txt file.

Does anyone know a way to change the fields in keepass Droid so you can save cards and bank account info etc?

Hi there..
I'm going to ask you very simple question.
Is there a way to import contact list to android via Microsoft My Phone service?
I have more than 200 contacts in my contact list.
Its easy thing to do but kind'a waste of time..
How do the starters import their list for the very first time?
NOT: I also tried to syncronize my SD android via pimbackup data. I had it done once but the syncronisation thing.. i couldnt find where i should do it.
Just a newbie question
Thank You
I found no way to sync my android with myphone... sorry
Outlook exchange is easiest way for me. MyPhone is a WinMo application/service (Microsoft), and so won't run on android.
Can also use gmail, m:IQ (no idea, just read it somewhere else), myBackup (Again, just read it). Also search market for "contacts" will produce many apps to back them up to SD card.
Hope This Helps.

That is what i couldnt success!
4. The extracted file should be BACKUP.CSC. Simply change the extension to .CSV and import the file to your gmail account.
All your contacts can now be imported to your phone through gmail
But how? There is no import/file upload menu in our gmal settings
That is where im stuck!
- just follow the instructions given in the phone's contact menu.
sorry guys, i am coming from kaiser forum but hoping for answer as so many here dual boot.
i believe this is a common request but i have not found a good solution.
i dual boot from winmo 6.5 to android and want to sync SMS between them.
contacts are easy through gmail.
i have seen solutions using export csv/xml, some sort of file text string manipulation, then import but all a bit convoluted. i could do this ok for a 1-off transfer.
i do not want to replace either of the databases, only import/merge.
anyone have an easy(ish) answer. must be able to handle folders.
paid for progs are not a problem but free is always nice
