Toucan doesn't keep any settings :-(

Submitted by DirkME on October 26, 2007 - 2:03pm

First of all a "Hallo" to all Wink

I droped U3 and I am now using Portableapps :-)) and I used Tourcan and was very impressed. But all the good work and for some reason it is not keeping any settings like exclusions or path or just what ever Sad

Every start is a fresh start.

Mayday

Any solutions Ideas?

Thanks for all your input, advice and help in advance

Toucan's Rioting on me

Submitted by interlider on October 24, 2007 - 11:25am

My Toucan doesn't want to work.

I encrypted some data and now it doesn't want to decrypt it. What is worse, I _need_ this data.

I tried in both Win XP and Win 2k, and still can't make Toucan decrypt the file, and all i see when I open is a laaarge source which, of course, is my file encrypted.

IF ANYONE IS WILLING TO HELP ME, PLEASE POST YOUR E-MAIL OR SEND ME AN ECHO-MAIL TO:
intergonzalo @ gmail . com

Then I can send the file and you can try to decode it. I'll send the pw as well, of course.

EDIT: I reinstalled the program. The file is Excel.

extension-only files don't get excluded

Submitted by teknocide on October 16, 2007 - 8:54am

Sorry if the subject is a little confusing, here is my problem;

In my source directory is a lot of hidden files. I don't want to synchronize these files to my USB drive. The files basically consist of an extension only (".bashrc" is a good example)

I have specified ".bashrc" in the exclusion box, but the file is still copied. There's quite a lot of these files in the main directory, and removing them is not an option.

I hope you can enlighten me on the matter Smile

hi,

i am new to portable apps so i just installed the base version and several apps. when i couldn't get toucan working i deleted everything and started again. now i only have the base version of portable apps and toucan installed.

[i am running windows xp and portable apps is installed on a usb pendrive]

i run portables apps from the system tray and click on the toucan icon to launch the application. i then goto the secure tab, add a file and a password and click encrypt. it tells me:

Shutdown computer after synchronizing/backup?

Submitted by LuP on October 15, 2007 - 5:03am

Hello,

an idea - would it be possible to provide Toucan with a check box "Shutdown computer" which would shutdown the computer when backup or synchronization is finished?

- As I suppose run Toucan at the end of work and as this operation may last a longer time, the check box may be useful...

Thanks,

LuP

Linux equivalent for Toucan?

Submitted by r0bis on October 11, 2007 - 10:32am

Hello guys. Maybe this is not the right forum and I need to go to development.

Anyways - I benefit greatly from running java apps (e.g. freemind) from memory stick on Windows and Linux. Toucan is very good for easy encryption of files. However I would like to be able to decrypt files on a linux box (why rebot to windows just to run decryption ).

Does anyone know if this is possible?

Many thanks.

Toucan version available

Submitted by lolo73 on October 9, 2007 - 3:10pm

Hello,

I'm starting using PortableApps since a few months. But, when I log on the Portableapps website, the last update available is from august, and Toucan version is 1.1 (from 1st of August). I saw on the blog that V1.2 exists. Where to find it?
Thanks a lot in advance,

Laurent.
