Sunbird: snooze button

Submitted by daisy on November 15, 2006 - 4:45am

Hi,
first thanks for you work on the portable Apps! It's really great.
When I downloaded Sunbird 0.3 I did not get a "snooze for X minutes" button after an alarm showed. Does anybody else not have the button? Is it a bug?
Thanks,
I.

Sunbird: SBP consuming too much CPU

Submitted by ciberdom on November 7, 2006 - 5:53am

Greetings to all,

I just started to use Sunbird Portable but I have a problem when I start the program. The first time I run the ".exe" the splash screen appears for a long time, and then the sunbird process starts but no Sunbird window appears, I have to execute it another time and then it works perfectly. The problem is that the first process consum a lot of CPU (98%) which makes mi laptop fan goes crazy. Also, when I close the window of the Sunbird that first process is still running (consuming the same amount of CPU), so I always have to use CTRL-ALT-DEL to acces the process control window and terminate it manually. I have to do this every time I check my calendar (which is several times a day), and that huge amount of CPU used makes almost impossible to run other applications in a smooth way while using Sunbird.

AbiWord: portable and yet?

Submitted by Wwhat on November 2, 2006 - 12:17am

I thought portable apps were suppose to NOT put permanent stuff on the host system, yet abiword puts several things in the registry and also creates a folder in the person's useraccount folder (C:\Documents and Settings\accountname\AbiSuite) in which it saves the custom dictionary.
Clearly this should not happen heh.

Sunbird: adding new events

Submitted by c2323j on October 26, 2006 - 4:07pm

When I open Sunbird portable (calendar) and add a new event it is visible for numerous minutes...I can sign out then back in and it will still be visible...then after a while it disappears and I cannot locate or view my documentation.

I didn't dismiss or do anything to the event I added, e.g. birthday date of someone, etc.

Any idea's....

version info:
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8a5) Gecko/20050203 Mozilla Sunbird/0.2

Thanks in advance,

Hi,

I just downloaded sb 0.3 - portable and have the following problems:

1) I have no File, Edit, Tools...etc menu at the top of the app.

2) When I right click in the calendar, a little grey box appears with nothing in it

3) Occasionaly on start-up I get a 'chrome error' - (I can provide more details if this is too generic a description)

I'm currently running this off a USB key on Windows 2000.

Any help is appreciated
