I hope the topic isn't to redundant but I have already spent several hours trying to figure this issue out including searching through the forum threads. I can't find an answer that makes any sense in my situation.
I have a favorite program, idailydiary (Splinterware) and have used it with PortableApps in the past. I've been using the program and PA for several years. All I had to do was install the programs to my USB drive in the PA folder and refresh the icons. It has always shown up with no problem.
I forgot my USB drive at home a few times and decided to move idailydiary to Dropbox. It ran fine from there until I realized that one of my computers was not updating the common files for some reason I never figured out. I decided to switch idd back to my Portableapps USB and just live without it on the days I might forget to carry it with me.
I've re-installed idd back on the USB drive inside the Portableapps folder. No matter what I do I cannot get the icon to show up in the menu on the PA platform.
PLEASE don't refer me to the support page that tells me to install the app in the folder "next to" the other apps as that is exactly where it IS installed. As I say, I've run it from there before.
When I did a clean re-install of idd I actually pointed the installer to K:PortableApps and that's exactly where it went. It runs fine from there. I just can't get PA to see it and add the icon.
Any help would be appreciated.
