Firefox Portable

Hey guys,

Ive done something who people might be interested in doing themselves.
I downloaded firefox 4 beta 4 portable edition from here at PA.com
I also went to Mozilla's site and downloaded firefox beta 5.
Then, I ran the portableapps.com installer and the firefox 4 beta 5 installer
Canceled portableapps.com when it wanted to connect to the internet to download the files, and copied the fresh install of beta 5 to the 'app\firefox' directory
Seems to work fine.

Ack! Installed 3.6.9 over a well-working copy of 3.6.8 on my Fantom 1 Tb. external hard drive, went to You Tube, and get a "Adobe Flash has crashed" error. Same on Disney.com. Non-video sites that use Flash just for bling work fine.

Hello Mates,

yesterday I was receiving a new USB Stick with a lot of space.
My plan was to put on Firefox Portable to be able to download files on the HP Thin Client at my workplace. The operating system is Windows CE 2.40

I downloaded and installed the program before at home on my Win7 Laptop and it worked properly. Now always when I try to run any app on the Thin Client, there occures following message:

Cannot find 'Firefox Portable' (or one of its components). Make sure the path and filename are correct and that all the required libraries are available.

i have a computer at home, and sometimes it's connected to the internet and sometimes not.

for those times without, i tried FFP as found on portableapps, and went to do some internet banking and such in the public library. the start-up is really slow and sometimes the computer hangs... there's not much i can do, i don't have administrative rights on these machines and time is short.
(the computers are fast enough otherwise, i think the anti-virus is on some kind of paranoia mode or removable drives get triple checked or sth.)

I have still no clue what I did wrong, but my ffp 369 reports sometimes a being a version 2.016 or so.

I have deleted the folder and installed the ff 369 completely fresh, managed to run the installer on one of my computers finally.

But when I click an help/about, the windows which opens still tells me the right version 3.6.9, but at the bottom, after the text mozilla, gecko, there is 2.0.16

In the mozilla addons repository, some addons refuse to install or update, they tell me this addon is not for the version 2016, I have to upgrade the FF itself first.

Hello,
I downloaded the nightly installer and when I go to install it, I get an error when it tries to download the latest nightly file, a 404 not found error. I tried looking at the source files in the "other" directory to see if I could find the URL it's trying to use but I haven't been successful. Can you look at the installer and see if something needs to be updated? Thanks.

have tried to download it few times, it looks as it downloads fine, but when I start it, it crashes and installation not possible. Windows wants send report, this are the contents:
AppName: firefoxportable_3.6.9_english.paf.exe AppVer: 3.6.9.0 ModName: system.dll
ModVer: 0.0.0.0 Offset: 000018ed

Tried to switch this and that off, but tsill no cure somehow. Run it on XP, sp3.

Hi there!

i installed the ad-Block addon into the FF-P and it sometimes looses its configuration. i can easily Re-Add the filters i want to have, but i think its worth a second thought to fix this glitch.

i cannot say much aboput how often this occurs or such things - i have to excuse myself for this.

i hope someone has an idea how to fix this.
Thx

Hello,

I would like to know if there is any possibility to get firefox to use always the USB key path for downloads, no matter the drive letter is ?

I tried to change the "browser.download.dir" field in about:config to "." or "../.." but it doesn't seem to take any relative path, only absolute.

Thank you to those who will take the time to answer.

PS : Sorry for my english.

in firefox i can translate
but with portable i cant
