General Discussion

First off, I did a search & did not come up with an answer (though I suspect that there was one buried in there some where).

I'd like too be able to start Chrome portable with a 1 of 2 .ini's which have different Additional Parameters. I know I can edit GoogleChromePortable.ini with the appropriate parms. But I'd like to void having to do the edit when I want to start the app with different parms.

Ok, I just downloaded this and got everything I want on it. But I see you can add you own videos, pictures, and music.

For videos, what file type do that have to be? Do I just add them to the my documents and my videos?
Pictures, can they be .png,.jpeg,.bmp and so on?
Music, Do they have to be .mp3? Or can they be a .wav or .ogg ?

I was just wondering. Because I don't want to screw it up.

Hi, when i installed the latest PA Platforf it came with a shortcut for the platform, for some reason this is not working for me. I have to go to J:\PortableApps\PortableApps.com\PortableAppsPlatform.exe just to launch it

Ok, I downloaded blender portable last night and it works on my computer. I took it to school to show my teacher what it is (since you can't download anything at school) and I was letting him do whatever with it and suddenly everything disappeared. He was doing something and everything went gray. You could still see the boxes for everything like the drawing area and menu area but there were no icons or anything. There just gray boxes were everything should of been. Is that the computers doing or the program?

Check for updates brought up a notification regarding the recently updated Google Chrome - 13.0.782.215. Clicking 'next' started the update but eventually I got a nastygram regarding the install, saying that it failed and suggested I try again. I did and got the same thing. Trying on a second external USB drive gave the same result.

Manually downloading the file and installing worked fine.

Hi,
1th - see https://portableapps.com/support/firefox_portable#plugins. in list item 1 from *Flash Plugin* the link as an extension is not available. Please check.

PortableFreeware.com's user database was apparently hacked and posted online on July 5th and hacked again July 31st and posted online on August 23rd according to user posts in their forum and Twitter. Usernames, email addresses and password hashes (MD5) were apparently posted.

I am using 5PCs in paralell to work on. On all PCs the Data is kept in sync by Dropbox.

I am using Mozilla Thunderbird installed like:
D:\Dropbox\PortableApps.sync\PortableApps\ThunderbirdPortable
with the data in:
D:\Dropbox\Thunderbird-Daten.sync
with its subfolders:
email(at)gmx.net
anotheremail(at)gmx.net
.....
local Folders
profile

This setup is working fine on all PCs

When I have used Thunderbird on one PC I have to wait for the syncing done by Dropbox until I can start Thunderbird on another PC. That means checking the sync-state on all PCs befor using Thunderbird.

I haven't been around here in about 2 years, and I'd love to know what's changed, what's been added, et cetera since then.

How's everyone?

will portable apps run on a blackberry bold 9700 with os 6?
