ArcReader needed for work please

Submitted by microfire on April 6, 2010 - 7:29pm

i am in a real bind here i use a lot of maps that only run using the Arc Reader. the main issue is i use 3 different laptops on the job for different things and the software i need to run can not be installed on all of them due to license issues due to the laptops are shared and yea boss throws a fit. anyways i have been trying to find a way to make it portable so i can load all my maps in one spot and run the app from my pen drive alone....if anyone could help me out i would be the most grateful person in the world.

to run application as portable application you just need to use ceedo or similar application.
like i write on other topic as a reply:"there is some portable applications (like ceedo),that can cause almost any windows application to run as a portable application by using windows emulator,but it may not be freeware.
some of them are Application Menus."

Musicmatch Jukebox Portable

Submitted by andyarok on April 3, 2010 - 1:47am

I would love to have Musicmatch Jukebox portable. Its one of those wonderful music players that has a good interface and had some very good functions like super tagging, etc.

Am not sure the software restriction policy is valid for Musicmatch now. Because it was bought by Yahoo and they stopped it completely and ruined many of us. You can just make a portable version of a basic one so that if people who have real licenses can use it as a full version.

Looking for reply soon.

Thanks in advance.

Disk partitioning and management software

Submitted by chris.orient on March 31, 2010 - 1:55am

Is there a chance of getting a portable disk partitioning or disk management app? There is a simple free program called SwissKnife from CompuApps, not sure how easy it might be to make it portable though. There are probably other apps out there too. Would this be not possible due to administration rights being necessary? Thanks dudes! You're the best!

Hi,

Mods, I don't know if this should be here or in the OpenOffice Portable Support section or in the General Discussion section, I decided to leave it to your decision to move it or keep it here.

My kid's school requested a USB memory stick to save some homework, they are all windows (2000, 98, and xp) and I decided that this is a good opportunity to introduce them to "my" open source world. So I'm going to give away some cheap 4Gb pendrives with PortableApps.com preinstaled on it as a present to some of my kid's closest school friends.
