SunBird don't start

Submitted by Wilfried54 on August 14, 2014 - 10:30am

Hi,

I just downloaded SunBird and extracted on XP (Virtual PC 2007) machine. When I try to run it, I get the splash screen for a moment and then nothing. If I check in task manager, I see the executable running for a second or so.

If I copy the folder to the host machine (Vista 64 bit) then it runs.

Is there something I can try / debug to check what is wrong or has someone else ever had this problem?

thanks, Wilfried

Sunbird: Where are data stored?

Submitted by Francisco Torres on July 5, 2014 - 4:26pm

The program works fairly well, but I tried to move it to another computer by copying all the program directories and once there I had the disagreable surprise that it was empty, no data, no information, was shown and I lost all the information.

What did I made wrong, which file should I have taken with me to the new computer?

[Fixed] Stickies won't open on my computer

My computer was being really weird so I decided to restart and didn't shut Stickies down first. Now it won't open. When I click on the icon in the Platform, StickiesPortable.exe shows up in Task Manager and then disappears again.

I've tried installing a new copy of Stickies and that also won't run. I copied the entire original folder to another computer and tried it there; it works fine.

why does SumatraPDF 2.2.1 have two .exe files running_why two executables in program folder?

Submitted by christina_a on May 1, 2013 - 10:57am

Downloaded SumatraPDFportable_2.2.1.paf.exe from here & ran the extractor / "installer." It creates 2 executable files for Sumatra - in different sub folders.

One in top folder is SumatraPDFportable.exe.
The other in sub folder "\SumatraPDFPortable\App\sumatrapdf\" is named SumatraPDF.exe. Why two .exe files?

Also, when start Sumatra, both of these.exe files (exact names above) are shown in task mgr. Why two files?
Thanks.
