Firefox Portable

When I try to install or update any extesion, I bomb out of the installation routine, and am directed to the following msg in the Error Console:

Error: [Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE) [nsIFile.copyTo]" nsresult: "0x80004005 (NS_ERROR_FAILURE)" location: "JS frame :: file:///E:/FirefoxPortable/App/firefox/components/nsExtensionManager.js :: anonymous :: line 1281" data: no]
Source File: file:///E:/FirefoxPortable/App/firefox/components/nsExtensionManager.js
Line: 1281

Any ideas?

Hi to everyone,
I started using Firefox portable with version 2.0.0.1. During all the updates that I did (till current version 2.0.0.4) the partial updates didn't work while the subsequent full updates worked without any problem.
By reading previous messages in forum it seems that the partial updates should work correctly.
Could anyone explain me if there is anything wrong in my installations preventing partial update to run well?
Thank you in advance.

Just thought I'd mention this - I'm not sure whether it's Firefox itself of the portable version.
In the FAQ is says -

Privacy: Does Firefox Portable leave behind any personal data?

A. No.

I have a master password set etc and all should be fine, but my friend just informed me he knows my password (I'd been using Firefox portable on his laptop.) He has a HP laptop, and it has a recovery partition of some sort to backup the data, he said he was rummaging through it and found a text document with the passwords I'd used.

I dont know what is wrong, but as you can see in the link, in IE is shows WMP11 correctly, and in FFP (right picture), shows WMP9,and bad video quality.
I think I have all the plugins in the profile.Could you please help?
Thanks.

FFP themes and extensions work a treat on my home PC but don't work at all on my work PC. While my add-ons tool list them all, none of them can be activated and none can be seen with tools menu or the right-click contextual menu.
I updated the latest versions of everything on my home PC and access the net at work through a proxy server.
What do I have to do to restore MY internet experience?

I had a large (545k) bookmark file in my regular Fx which I wanted to import to my USB stick and edit to remove stuff that I didn't want on the stick.
'import' in Manage Bookmarks in Portable Fx crashed.
Copied bookmarks.html to the stick and fired up portable Fx. As soon as I opened Bookmarks, Fx crashed.
Seems to be a size limit on the Bookmarks file.

found a workaround.
Installed Portable Fx to my HD, fired it up, imported the Bookmarks file OK, editted it down to what I wanted, copied this bookmarks.html (about 250k) to the stick. Works fine.

Hi, I'd appreciate some help please. I've installed FF 2.4, (initially upgraded, then clean install, then re-install using the PortableApps gui), the icon does not appear in the list of applications, so I can't run it without browsing to the PortableApps\FirefoxPortable dir, once there FF starts correctly. I understand that running FF in this way will stop the "portability" from working - is this a registry issue? is it relevent to my problem. What can I do to get the Firefox app appear in the menu?
Thanks in advance.

I wanted to know what features on Firefox Portable (well, natively in FIrefox I guess) write data to the disk it is on? I want to try to disable as much writing to my iPod as possible so that its memory can survive longer. Or my other thumbdrive that I use... or my CompactFlash card...

I looked at the Support page, and I can disable the Session restore, phishing detection... what else? Am I likely to find a way to 90-99% completely eliminate writing to the drive its running on?

Thanks. (And this is a very clever idea.)

Okay, here's the deal. I bought a 2G Cruzer Micro and tried to copy everything from my old 1G OCZ Roadster onto it. Well, I ran into an issue that made me have to reinstall FFP under the PortableApps menu on the new drive. I copied all my settings/themes/addons from my PC installation of FF, but when I used the launcher, it defaulted back to the 'freshly installed' version of FF. I followed the instructions from the FFP page on Portableapps.com, but every time I use the Portableapps menu, it still goes back to minty fresh.

I would like to download my local Firefoxbookmarks to my Portable Apps Firefox bookmarks. Then after collecting new bookmarks on my PortApps Thumbdrive merge all of the new bookmarks into my local computer Firefox booksmarks.

Can do ?
