Finale Notepad Music Notation

Submitted by vzett90 on February 26, 2007 - 1:26pm

There's this program from makemusic called "Finale Notepad" which is the free version of the famous notation program FINALE and it's a very small simple program...

I wonder if it would be possible to get that as an portable app
(Just for the case that you have an musical idea you want to write down very quick)

Here's the program:

As a musician this would be a great thing to have notation software portable...

Thanks for giving this opportunity here.

Quicktime basic portable

Submitted by peter0328 on February 25, 2007 - 2:29pm

I am trying to use iTunes from my flash drive on my school computers. Whenever it tries to load it always says you must update to the most recent version of Quicktime to use iTunes. Since I cannot install software on the school computers, I was wondering if anyone can create a version of Quicktime that will run off a flash drive. It doesn't have to be completely portable meaning it can leave behind registry entries and such.

Portable international settings

Submitted by javieramor on February 24, 2007 - 6:28pm

I think it could be great. To have a international system in a USB drive. Install just one font and a capable word processor. Japanese users could work on EVERY computer in Europe and we could read japanese pages in aur Firefox Portable. I'm very interested in japanese support as portable. Is it possible? Sorry for my bad English.

Legacy Family Tree

If anyone has the time, can you portablize this?

I'm aware it's not open source, so a launcher/compiler may be all I need. And there is very minimal registry settings so this could possibly be done in a jiffy!

Thanks again, guys and looking forward to someone working their magic on this.

BTW, download 5.0 since it's free and it's what I'm using for now.

Hi there! I have a U3 flash drive and I've installed the Mozilla and Firefox apps. They are supporte here in PortableApps. I was wondering if you guys will publish a Sunbird version for the U3 community... I tried Lighning but to me Sunbird is a better app...

REQ: Grabit newsreader

Submitted by schuster on February 24, 2007 - 7:59am

Grabit (http://www.shemes.com) is a freeware newsreader aimed at binary downloads. However it appears to store its settings (including NNTP username and password) in the registry. It uses INNO setup but can be extracted and run as a no-install executable - would someone have the inclination to configure a registry wrapper for this? Thanks.
