SunbirdPortable.ini : AllowMultipleInstances=true doesn't work at all.

Submitted by MokuJin on October 17, 2007 - 8:22am

Hello,
i would like to launch multiple instance of sunbird, so i looked in 'SunbirdPortable.ini' and found 'AllowMultipleInstances=false'. i've change it to 'AllowMultipleInstances=true'.
But it doesn't change anything.
Sunbird say:
"sunbird is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first closethe existing Sunbirdprocess, or restart your system."

I've look for something in sunbird and found 'parent.lock' in 'data/profile'. it seems to lock sunbird, and prevent it to have multiple instances.

AbiWord: How much memory?

I am making decisions on the structure of a fairly large secure database for a "family registry". I can either:

Angel make the whole database one BIG file. This makes searching for a name much easier using the FIND command as it will automatically search the whole database at one time. This would be my preferred method.
Or
(B) Break up the database into a number of smaller files.

Sunbird: Network calendars not showing up on reload

Submitted by vole on August 2, 2007 - 11:01am

I'm using Sunbird Portable with iCal Exchange (icalx.com), and though it's worked previously, I'm now having trouble now with my network calendars.

When I subscribe to a calendar hosted on iCalx.com, all the entries show up perfectly. However, when I exit Sunbird and reopen, nothing shows up. When I tell Sunbird to reload my remote calendars, it sits and thinks for a bit, but nothing happens. If I disable one of my remote calendars, oddly, the data from my local calendar disappears.

Sunbird: "All day" not needed on monthly print

I've been waiting to upgrade until this bug is fixed, and it looks like it's been addressed in Calendar...but I'm not sure...

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=352433

See comment number 6.

Any chance of it being fixed soon for Sunbird Portable?

Otherwise, I love this app!
thanks,
Leila
