Firefox Portable

Hi All,

I recently tried to add VLC plugin to my portable FF (added libvlc.dll & npvlc.dll to plugins dir) to try and add DivX support.

the plugin seems to be properly installed, its showing in about: plugins and some file types have been automatically assigned to it in the file management options. But in neither of these locations does it mention DivX files types.

Hi all,

I wonder if anyone knows how to do this?

I use FF Portable at work and on other computers and the full version of FF on my laptop at home.

Is there any way of synchonising cookies and passwords between them? I know that there is an addon (Foxybookmarks) for doing this for bookmarks.

Cheers,

James

Generally, during use firefox tries to write to the host machine's $TEMP folder. I would like to disable this, to avoid any risk of an undelete spying. Most data that ends in $TEMP is temporal files, whose contents I don't know. But I don't want anyone to see I watch videogame speedrun videos (some people using those computers would not like that, think of Jack Thompson-y mentality, and also general privacy).

Hello,

The PortableApps FF2 allowed you to rename firefox.exe and then edit an ini file to specify its new name.

This was the only way I could get FF to run at work; without renaming the executable, the network antivirus program would delete firefox.exe from my memory stick when I tired to launch it.

I can't figure out how to rename the executable for FF3RC1 and still have FireFoxPortable.exe run it.

Thanks for your help.

I want to install a new one Firefox Portable to my other UFD, and then i just want to copy my password saved in my old firefox portable not other addons. How can i do?? Please help me..

Seeing as this is one of the bigger portable apps (as in most downloaded), and it's portable, wouldn't it be a nifty feature to have 'Profiles'...

, like proxy settings and stuff? I go from my school to my IT center, and I always have to change the proxy settings. That'd be a really nice feature to have.
(I don't know where to put this.)

I noticed a few things that PA forgot to change with the new firefox.

-Saves to the desktop by default
-Checks for updates to firefox (Both versions)
-I cant run the new beta and the old version at the same time, even though at home, I usually can run multiple firfox's at once.

Howdy all,

I just installed portable apps and wanted to find the best way to import all of my bookmarks, add-ons and stored passwords. I want my local machine's settings copied to the portable apps drive if this is possible. Thanks in advance.

Hey folks
I haven't been able to log into www.jooce.com
Think this is prob down to the college proxy,cos I cant get it to work on the locally installed IE7 client either, but the IE7 is not patched to latest flash, so thinking it may just be a flash setting or something.

Much thanks for any help

hello all!

i just downloaded firefox portable and am super excited because i'm on a huge backpacking trip and using tons of unfamiliar browsers and looking up bank accounts and such is a pretty scary thing. this will be the perfect tool!

i'm currently on a friends computer and have downloaded the app. but can't seem to get it to work. the browser opens up but just won't connect to the internet. but i can still surf internet explorer at the same time. what's going on?

i'm on a private home network so there are no firewalls or anything...
