General Discussion

Good Afternoon Group;

The new platform has some music on it if you download the one with it. I never have used any Music or Video Apps before. Can or will someone give me an idea of what to download so I can try the music out. I know it it is a very basic question but not for me since there is a number of Apps and I do not have a clue.

Just curious

Start exe doesnt seem to be working for me, when clicked it looks like its loading then does nothing. I have to go to J:\PortableApps\PortableApps.com\PortableAppsPlatform.exe just to open the platform.

How can I tell which version of portable Opera I'm using? The last update I did was version 11.52, but I'm currently seeing version 11.60 on the website.

Hi,
I suppose this may have been asked before....

when using portable apps and more specifically, stuff from PortableApps.com, do you need to have a dedicated USB Flash Drive?

In other words, can I download and install and use portable apps on my existing and in-use stick (USB Flash Drive)? OR...
Do I have to have a dedicated USB Stick which is only for the Portable apps use?

I was looking at some Puppy's the other day and in order to install to my Flash Drive from the live CD, I would lose all my data on my flash drive (so I didn't save it to my flash drive)

According to the info Portable Apps
A portable app doesn't leave files or folders behind on the PC
A portable app doesn't leave registry entries behind except those automatically generated by Windows

My question is what is the benefit of something like Portable Iron? Since most PC come with either Firefox, Chrome or Explorer adding another browser would show up in the registry.

Hey, is there some app I am not seeing that will help me categorize say, DVD's maybe sorted by Genre or alphabetize or anything like this ? or do I just make my own little txt or doc ?

Is there a way to redirect the folder buttons on the side of the UI (Documents, Music, Video, etc.) to another place?

For example, I recently installed PortableApps on an external HDD that I use to back up my "My ____" folders on my Desktop.

Instead of pointing to G:\Apps\Documents and G:\Apps\Music (as they do now), it would make my life immeasurably easier if I could direct the buttons in the program to G:\Documents and G:\Music.

Is there a way to accomplish this?

Hello, I stumbled some apps like this one in the past. The big question is, is it possible to run them via Java Portable Launcher. So far I have been unable to do so. To name some portable java apps packaged as executables: DocFetcher, TVBrowser (which is I recap correctly is hosted in Sourceforge, hence opensource?)

I'm just wondering: The main office should have more volunteers, employees, and assistants, jut like big companies. You should hire them from your city which you live. That way, it can release more apps faster.
