Office Apps Support

Alright, so I spent like 5 minutes trying to figure out what I was doing wrong in passing the command line parameter to change the background colour for SumatraPDF Portable through the AppNamePortable.ini file. Then I decided to try to disable the splash, which didn't work either. I didn't check the source much yet, but I'm thinking that it's not reading the INI file properly, or not properly reading all the variables and applying them.

Thought I'd point that out. Some confirmation from others would be good, too.

This refers to an issue I posted at
https://portableapps.com/news/2008-01-18_-_sumatra_pdf_portable_0.8

John Haller asked to continue the thread here instead.

The last post was by rab040ma:

Are you sure you only have the one copy of SumatraPDF.exe on your hard drive (the one you are testing)? Can you use WinMD5sum on it (and the SumatraPdfPortable.exe) and paste the values, so we can be sure we are on the same page?

So here is the MD5 sum of my SumatraPDFPortable.exe:

This is the sum of SumatraPDF.exe:

Hi @all,

after booting Win/XP from a CD-ROM. I could not use Abiword in this jailed environment, because the menus, comboboxes and even entryfields are not shown
correctly.

If I start Abiword from a full blown installed Win/XP the program behaves normally.

Do I miss some fonts or dll's? I use the ultimate boot cd from windows (UBCD4WIN) Ver. 3.0.6 and an english version of Win/XP Professional. Abiword is the latest one (2.4.6) with german language pack.

Any advice would be very appreciated.

Woke up this morning and not only were all my entries gone but when i click to make a new task nothing happens. Am i screwed or is there a way to get my data back so that i can reinstall Sunbird?

Version: 0.8 Portable Revision 2

The release of SumatraPDF Portable 0.8 (Rev 2) seems to have a bug since there was an extension change on the settings file.

The old launcher for SumatraPDF 7.0 and below was handling a sumatrapdfprefs.txt file, but in the new release [0.8] SumatraPDF stores its settings in sumatrapdfprefs.dat. The new launcher isn't accomodating for the new file type, and therefore sumatrapdfprefs.dat is not being copied to the data directory on close.

Hi,

How can I tell to Sunbird Portable that the Address Book to Invite Attendees is stored in Thunderbird Portable.

And to send an e-mail with the invitation, how to config the "mailto"

thanx

Igor

It creates a folder called ${DEFAULTSETTINGSDIR} in my Data folder.
And shouldn't the sumatrapdfprefs.dat go in my Data folder?

EDIT

Yes. It looks like John removed the DEFAULTSETTINGSDIR Variable from the Launcher code but left it in line 142: StrCpy "$SETTINGSDIRECTORY" "$EXEDIR\Data\${DEFAULTSETTINGSDIR}".
Thats why it creates that folder.

I am new to Portable applications, but love the idea. Form the site, it appears that Sunbird can be installed on either a flash drive or a PDA... is this true? Is there a way to run it on the flash drive but sync it with the PDA for access to my calendar when I am not at a PC? I currently sync Outlook with my Pocket PC, but would like to abandon Outlook for portable apps.

There is a locked discussion here with the title of hebrew not readable.

When I try to change the hour of the event by the main box, after stipulating the hour, it comes back 2 hours before. I tested in in 3 different computers (win XP) and the problem persists.
For example; you put 10:30AM in the event, and after choosing the minutes (30, in the example), the hour goes to 8:30AM.
This bug does not happen if you stipulate the time by 'drag and drop', but this numerical bug makes me uncomfortable about 0.7 integrity.
Solutions?
