I have problems with my USB flash drive PortableApps COMPANION, connect it to any of my two PCs (desktop PC with Windows 7 and Laptop Lubuntu Linux) and is not read by the OS sometimes only LED light turns on and even that other happens. What happens? What I can do?

Hi,

I received my beautiful PortableApps USB key.
Is it possible to install Ubuntu OS and PortableApps on the same USB Key?

I wish I could run Ubuntu on any PC or run any Portable App on a Windows OS but with only one USB key. Do you think I can do that. With partitions?

Regards

hi

do we have a portable app that can convert .ZVR files to .MP3 (or other very compact audio format) here at PortableApps.com ?

I couldn't find one under the "Music & Video" category.

I know this is not a protable apps issue, but has anyone managed to integrate Roboform into Chrome portable without having to install the proper version of Roboform on the computer.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Hey, I was wondering if anyone knows a way to type a directory which points to the current USB drive, regardless of which actual Physical Drive Letter any given Computer assigns it

For example, I want to create a Shortcut to a file, but as soon as you move to another computer where the USB is assigned a different letter than the letter it was created on, the Shortcut no longer works

For instance, when I create a shortcut pointing to:

I:\My Portable Programs\Apps\Cool Program.exe

Problem 1: used my FF 3 and TB 2 for years without any problems on a 1G SD memory card and they take only 1/4 of capacity with 7 accounts. But for about a year now, I've had problems while typing - it freezes or moves in leaps and bounds (as it does now). Both TB and FF also freeze before moving to the next window. Compacting folders, renewing inboxes and other advice did not help.

About 2 months ago I cloned in TB the same gmail pop account in Imap to check spam box without going to webmail, they're now both functioning OK in TB.

Does anyone know a way to get a portable program which doesnt have its own internal spelling dictionaries, but has support for external dictionaries, to use a stand-alone dictionary of some sort for its spell check function?

I'm trying to use the portable version of Smart Diary Suite Free edition and I'd like to find a way to add a dictionary to my USB drive that it could read..

maybe someone knows about another portableapps program that has its own dictionary that I could point to?

I was wondering if there was an app out there that could be made portable that could automatically disable unnecessary services to speed up a computer.. iolo System Mechanic 9 and up comes with such a program, called Energy Booster, and it does a really nice job.. I would love to have something similar on my PortableApps list to use on peoples computers when I do tune-ups for them.

How I can make the installer that will create a folder at data?
thanks, tal.

Hi. I've been enjoying your guys' platform for some time now. I try to donate to software companies whose creations I enjoy.

Money has been kind of tight for me in recent months. I've been wanting to donate some money to PA for a while. Through chance, I received a retail Logitech K270 via a warranty repair. It uses unifying receiver. Would any developer working on this project be in need?

If so please message me.

Thanks PA.
