Just like how Adobe opens pdfs inside firefox. Problem is that my Firefox always crashes once it opens Adobe Reader to open the pdf. I tried to tweak settings on Menu>Tools>Options>Applications>Adobe Acrobat Document and changed that to be open using Sumatra PDF. I clicking on a .pdf site and it is just blank (sometimes Firefox Crashes)

Sumatra PDF portable phones home(!)

Submitted by klsjdarta on December 13, 2008 - 4:29am

as most mobile internet access (:here) is really expensive and next, establishing a connenction takes minutes (think of sitting in a moving non-ICE train...) at least these two are reason enough to KICK OFF SumatraPDF from portableapps.com(!)

No, I could NOT find any "settings" option as "[ ] automatic check for update".

I am using Sunbird_Portable_0.9_en-us.

I create a single event in a day. I select export calendar and choose .csv file format and save the file on my desktop.

then I open the .csv file in notepad++ to see that it did actually write the correct event in it then i close it without modification.

I then manually delete the event I created in Sunbird. and close Sunbird and open it again.

I then choose to import calendar(file>Import)and choose the .csv file, but nothing gets imported and my calendar remains empty with nothing imported.

AbiWord: Abi Word [uninstall errors]

Submitted by tk2922 on October 31, 2008 - 12:25am

My son has downloaded and installed AbiWord Port on my desktop, when I try to uninstall I get error message that it is being used in another application and to shut them down to uninstall. I've attempted to remove by following the instructions for "Removing Apps from the PortableApps.com Menu". I was successful in removing all Contents and folders except for the Other folder, I was able to remove the contents but not the folder. As far as the Software Application itself, I get the same message but I'm not able to remove anything. Can anyone PLEASE HELP????

Use Sunbird as a diary

Submitted by Esgrimidor on October 9, 2008 - 5:33pm

It's possible use Sunbird as a diary with an addon ?

I refer to the possibility of writing according a day my personal notes.

And even using links to web, other part of my pc, links to image, to files, in similar ways as word processor does.

Thanks
