I've installed Portable Gaim on several pcs on my classroom but on three of them there are no protocols listed when the students try to add an account. We've downloaded, unzipped and used the Portable Gaim several times on those machines but it still doesn't works.

Hi all,

In fact, I'm the first time to use portable gaim, after I download the 1.5 (Multilingual), the default language of interface is English, and I want to change it to Chinese, I have already try to replace whole the "locate" directory into my portable HD, but it still cannot make any change...

And I found that, if I run the portable gaim in my home PC (My PC is already installed gaim 1.5), it can show the Chinese interface, if I run the portable gaim in other PC, it will change back to English...what should I do? Please help me...

Hello All!

I may be missing something. If I did please point me to the right place to find this information.

How can I transfer the FTP sttings on my desktop to the Filezilla on my USB? That is the FTP addresses, usernames and passwords.

Thanks in advance for your response.

I use Portable Gaim and I'd find the logging feature useful, except that every conversation takes up 4KB (my drive's minimum cluster size). After a few dozen conversations (a new one is started just by closing and re-opening the window) I quickly get up in the megabytes.

Is there something that could remedy this? Thanks.

ok Hi there people, first i would like to say this has been awesome to find.
now my problem is at work i am behind a good firewall i am guessing.
so far the only way i can access my home linux server is thru ftp port 21 with filezilla. thats the only thing that gets thru.

i have tried the following with no success.

remote desktop(windows)
vnc(both)
webmin.
ssh
telnet with putty

and ftp with ssh doesnt work either
so far the only things i can do are my web page and ftp.
now i am able to get thru with normal ftp but i dont like it becuase of security issues.

does anyone know of a way to get command line access so i can upload and download.

Don't know if this has been covered in another post, but I did a search and couldn't find the exact error message I'm getting. When I start up Gaim and a couple of the other portable apps I've downloaded, I'm getting the following error message:

There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive \Device\Harddisk3\DR6

I hit continue and the application comes up fine. Is there something I can change in the settings somewhere to eliminate the error message?

Thanks.

I'm using an INI for PortableMiranda, and instead of the profile going into my designated settings folder (PortableMiranda Files\settings), they're ending up in the application folder. If I don't use the INI, this isn't a problem--the profiles go into settings. However, due to my unique directory structure, I need to use the INI. This is what my INI looks like...

[PortableMiranda]
MirandaDirectory=PortableMiranda Files\application
SettingsDirectory=PortableMiranda Files\settings
MirandaExecutable=miranda32.exe
AdditionalParameters=
WaitForMiranda=false
DisableSplashScreen=true

I am only posting this because I assume that you change the links and pages before you post that a new version is ready.

Portable FileZilla Homepage still points to 2.2.21 for the download link.

Thanks again for all you work.

Hi,
I was wondering how you can disable the splash screen? Its not in the .ini and I can't seem to find any reference on how to do so.

Thanks,

The bug I pointed out a couple weeks ago with the PortableGIMP wrapper (https://portableapps.com/node/1382) also exists in PortableGAIM. Basically, it breaks a PortableSuite-Style install.

Something tells me that this bug got carried over to PortableGIMP from here...

PortableGAIM.nsi; Line 153: "Apps" instead of "App"
