Portable Firefox OS X

Submitted by Gand on January 14, 2006 - 5:42pm

I've packaged a Mac OS X version using this script so you can launch it with a double click from any device:

#!/bin/sh
here="`dirname \"$0\"`"
echo "Starting Firefox from '$here'."
echo "Wait a while before Firefox start."
sh "$here/app/Firefox.app/Contents/MacOS/firefox" -profile "$here/profile"
echo "Done!"
echo "When finish, quit Terminal.app before eject your portable device."

Shockwave

I just installed pFF - great concept!

I'm having trouble with macromedia...I installed the Flash player with no problems, but I can't seem to get the Shockwave player to work. I followed the instructions at https://portableapps.com/support/portable_firefox#plugins, tried several times. I tried to install to both \PortableFirefox\firefox\plugins and \PortableFirefox\plugins, but the sample movie doesn't work at http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/welcome/ . The Flash demo works, but the Shockwave player does not. In the status bar is "Connecting to download.macromedia.com". I do have a np32dsw.dll in both directories mentioned.

Upgrade to 1.5 required ?

Submitted by RossGoodman on January 13, 2006 - 8:57am

Hi

I have just re-installed portable apps after my USB key "broke" (it's the one thing I don't backup !)

This includes pFF and pTB, both of which are at 1.5
When I run both and added extensions both stated that an upgrade to 1.5 was available.

Am I missing something obvious ?
I chose no in both cases as they are already 1.5.

Is then an issue in letting pFF upgrade it's self (are the files not compressed differently or something) ?

Thanks

Ross

Portable FireFox 1.5 - Many pauses

Submitted by remilk on January 12, 2006 - 1:55pm

I had used a previous version of Portable FireFox and it worked great. For some reason, this version (1.5) continues to take many pauses, I see that it is interragating the USB drive. I have NO extensions, just the original portable version.

Any suggestions?

None of my other portable apps seem to go back an interrogate the USB drive every few seconds.

Thank you,
Bob
