Firefox Portable

Hello and thanks in advance.
My problem:
I run FFP on two different machines. I save all information, files etc. on a LAN drive O habe access on with both computers.
Now anytime any change to my bookmarks (or any setting for that matter) has to be done manually on both machines.
Is there any way to export the setting folder to my LAN drive in a way a change on one machine would be work on the other one as well ("exporiting" the settings folder to a different location)?
Again, thanks a lot!

Prior to FF 3.6 I could type in the address bar something like "openoffice" and then press ctrl-shift Enter to go to openoffice.org. Same goes for shift-Enter to automatically go to .net. Now this is not working for me. Is this a change in behavior for FF 3.6 or something peculiar to my installation? Ctrl-Enter still works for .com.

I want to use PortableFirefox on a CD-ROM. I know, that it cannot really run from a non-writable media, an so it makes a temporary copy on the hard drive of the host computer. That is OK. But there is always a message window, in which this is explained and in which you are asked, if you want to make a copy. And of course you have to click on "yes", otherwise FirefoxPortable will not start.

If there is a different maker of a portable FF I need to find it because this product's performance stinks to high heaven. I like the concept but not the result.

This version takes 3-5 minutes to load on a Win7 machine with 4g memory, using a brand new USB stick.

Then when finally loaded, clicking on a link gets a 'Not Responding' faded screen for 1-2 minutes. After the screen returns and finally get to a new page, clicking a new links gives the same result!

Is there a fix or do I have no choice but to quit using this product?

When opening a bookmark a new tab is not used. All boxes
in the options/tab screen are checked. Prior version did
this OK. I have heard of a few other users with the same
problem. Is this a bug ?

thx

When you install an addon the program says it needs to restart - is it safe to let it restart?

What I mean is, will it restart the portable version or will it restart the 'real' non portable version instead?

Hi,

I really dig the portable apps on here, with no dependency on registry or windows system folders, any of that junk.

One thing I don't get is why the Profile Manager was removed from Firefox? It pretty much makes the portable version useless for me, since I have several profiles that I am using throughout the day depending on what I am doing.

The Profile Manager allows the users to create a new profile in any directory they choose. This should work just fine for making new profiles on a USB stick or anywhere else a folder can be created.

when i click the link to download any of the versions of rkill from http://www.technibble.com/rkill-repair-of-the-week/ i get a zero size file in the target folder.
the links at technibble download from bleepingcomputer.
the FF download manager gives the message: canceled--bleepingcomputer.com.
other downloads give similar results.
the downloads work fine in opera 10.10.
i have been using FFportable for a long time and never had trouble until recently. i can't think of anything that i have changed recently.
i made a 2nd profile with no add-ons, same result.

xp pro sp3; FF 3.5.8

Hi everybody,
I made a web site which runs on a USB Key on FirefoxPortable 3.6.The application works well even if everything is burned on CD. I nevertheless face the problem that on launching FirefoxPortable.exe the "window add-ons" opens up automatically notifying the installation of the extentions.
Having said that, here is the question: Is it possible to disable the automatic startup of window add-ons(may be by working on the config file)?

Thanks for your help.
