General Discussion

Hi all,
I did make at posting at the ftm16 beta posting but maybe due to the age of the last posting there, I thought it might be a good idea to see if anyone could answer my question here.

Does anyone know if the ftm executable that is supposed to be available "is available" elsewhere.

would be very much appreciated if someone could throw some light on the subject...

Ok. I got me an new laptop which is actually 10 years old but it has XP (SP2) and I wanna upgrade to SP3. I noticed it says to back up files before you install. But I have nowhere to back them up to. My friend says that if you don't back the files up, and your battery dies or your computer turns of in the middle of upgrading, you computer crashes and you might not be able to use your computer any more.

But will I still lose files if I don't back them up and complete the installation without my computer turning off?

Hi,

I'm searching a good portable SVN client. I already tried SubCommander, SmartSVN (which I must buy to use the features I need -.-) and RapidSVN. But none of them is usable for me.

I'm currently using SlikSVN but it stores its settings and data in the AppData directory and in the registry. Maybe someone could get it portable?

Or does someone has a good tip for a portable SVN client?

Hi all I did a search and although I found lots of topics to do with Wine and a few sporadic posts about using PortableApps.com Platform/Apps with Mac OS X.
So I thought I'd start a thread incase anybody else was interested and also so any Q & A or info could be easily found and shared in one place.

Is source-forge broken I am getting 404 errors on all the Platform Download links, I have tried on two separate computers and with different browsers.

Error 404

404 Not Found
The resource could not be found.

I need to convert a pdf to an excel .xls file. I tried Zamzar but it didn't convert it properly. It would be better if it integrates in MS office.

Hi everyone, as I am new to this, I am wondering if there is a portable app I can download that will mirror Microsoft Access. In other words, I would like to be able to develop a database with 2 or 3 tables and develop a front-end which would allow for the end-user to enter information via a form and run pre-designed reports that I would develop. I would like this to be done on a Flash Drive/Memory Stick.

Hopefully someone out there may know exactly where I need to go in order to get this software.

Thank you in advance for your time and assistance.

Hi,

I am looking for a portable antivirus programme that will run under UBUNTU.

I have looked at Clamav, but I am not sure if it is portable.

Any suggestions please.

Thanks

But you're only going to use maybe 10 or 20 of them anyway. Random utilities you have no use for, 10 apps that do the exact same thing, etc. They're basically shovelware suites and they do that to force you to download all the apps so they can count that one download as 200 downloads.

This is a heads up for the PortableApps.com community.

We desire also to officially apologize to the PortableApps community, given that we used some of their powerful portable software without giving proper credit for their efforts. We are working to fix all issues, rehabilitating disabled splash screens and other minor inaccuracies, hoping to resolve these problems within the next Suite release. - http://www.lupopensuite.com/ (4-30-10)

Lupo has re-enabled the splash screens and placed the bookmarks back into Firefox Portable.

His suite is also going GPL and Open Source.
