Firefox Portable

installing multiple versions of FF in Apps Suite?

Submitted by mdiviesti on August 27, 2008 - 10:11am

Hi all,
First, I am new to these boards (and this is my first post). I've used the search bar on this forum to attempt to find my answer. Unfortunately, it's either never been posed or my searchfu is broken.

I was wondering if there was any possible way to install firefox3 along side firefox2 in the suite. This would make my debugging world much easier to handle, especially as I tend to go back and forth between different computers (screen resolution, windows versions, etc).

Any way to keep SWFs from storing data in C:/blahblah?

I'm using FFP and installed flash ('self-contained' on my usb stick) successfully, it's running good. Except that I still can't figure out how to keep flash interactive games from storing data in a C:\... path. I'd really prefer if the games would store their data wherever I tell them, or at least off the firefoxportable\ branch. Is this a behaviour I can force on flash apps under FFP?

I'm sorry if this post should be in google's page, but i have tried FFportable 2 & 3 with google toolbar & in both the same problem: when i have an icon for a personalized search, it only appear in my firefox in the computer/partition I created the icon. Is anyone having this problem or know how to solve it?

Thanks

What if the PFF launcher checked say "C:\Programs Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" if its there and the same version as pff then launch it with the profile on the USB that way it would save the reading of the flash drive to only the profile(I have reg firefox installed but never use it it would be better it both could be launched at once form 2 different sources)

Foxmarks won't sync and other bookmarks issues

Submitted by Amalas on August 21, 2008 - 11:27am

At first I thought I was having a Foxmarks issue, but now I think I'm having general bookmark problems.

If I bookmark a page and just add it to the general default folder, it shows up in the Bookmarks dropdown, but it does not show up in Bookmarks --> Organize Bookmarks.

When I bookmark a page and choose the folder, it lists folders that aren't actually available anywhere else.

Regarding Foxmarks, I have tried to do a "Force overwrite of local bookmarks" but no bookmarks are added even though there are no errors in my Foxmarks log.
