Firefox Portable

I recognize that the following _may_ as easily be general FF problems, rather than specifically belonging to your portable version. But then, I normally only use these portable editions, so I can't be sure.

I have both a non-portable and a portable version of the latest FF on my work system. Both of them have no extensions.

In the non-portable system, all the sections of my JIRA dashboard display correctly. If you're familiar with JIRA, each of my 'filters' displays all the results.

The portable system, on the other hand, displays only ONE of my filters and the others are empty of results. I can get them to display by maximizing them (which then displays everything) and clicking "restore" to put them back where they belong.

Has anyone seen these issues in FF Portable 32.0.2 after an upgrade:

Upgrade process
Copy known working FFP 24.0.0 folder to a "\tmp" folder on a completely separate hard disk. Download FFP 32.0.2 via portableapps.com link to the "\tmp" folder. Run FFP 32.0.2 "exe" file. It finds the "copied FFP 24.0.0" folder and no errors were output. Run the "exe" for FFP 32.0.2 and FFP opens up after checking extensions; I only had to upgrade "Download Tweak something or other".

(1) FFP 32.0.2 page loads are "dead slow"

I am going to be doing a pc upgrade. Due to issues back in the days of Win 98, I have FF Portable 32 on an XP box as my default browser.

I need to copy the following files:

Bookmarks: (said to be) places.sqlite
Passwords: (said to be) logins.json and key3.db
Forms: (said to be) formhistory.sqlite

Running Windows search, for bookmarks & Forms all I can find is the basic Vanilla FF install & a Sea Monkey version. I can't find logins.json at all.

Can anyone help? I can't migrate to Win 7 or 8 until I get this figured out.

I don't know where else to go to get information. There isn't a "help" like link on the page. The "Contact Us" link leads to corporate type addresses.

I last accessed my account on support.mozilla.org late March this year. Now when I try to log in using email address (username) and password. I get the error:

"Username may contain only English letters, numbers and ./-/_ characters."

After getting this I thought I may have the wrong username and forgot to record it. I used the "I forgot my username." link and found I was using the correct username (my email address).

I'm running the latest version of PortableApps, v12.0.5, with quite a few other progs w/o any problems (W7 64-bit).
I now also installed yr portable Firefox, v32.0.1, very neat. All installed on a second built-in hd.

My issue is the profile, should it be at ...C:\Users\xxxx\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles (9.87 MB) and also at C:\Users\xxxx\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles (24.8 MB)?

When I start from a desktop shortcut (FirefoxPortable.exe) I can do all, no problem, made it my default browser.

I am trying out FF P and am having a trouble with https sites or any secure site. it keeps blocking me from going to those sites and asks me to "get out of here" or to add an exception. does anyone know why this is?

Hello,
I'm using Firefox on my own private machines and I find it runs perfectly.
Now I tried since FF 30 the portable version and I found that pages are rendered differently than Firefox installed versions.
You can reproduce this and see the differences by visiting pages on www.t-online.de.
Here are on multiple pages boxes containing social media bookmarks and also links for printing, mailing and settings. The installed version of Firefox shows these boxes as expected. Only in ff portable these boxes are shown in a strange way.
What please can be the reason? Are some settings wrong?

There's a bug in Firefox 32, that some tabs miss the favicons: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1061456
The bug is caused by the introduction of the new cache and shows up in case pref "browser.cache.disk.enable" is set to "0" and "browser.cache.disk.smart_size.enabled" set to "false".

IIRC, the portable container for firefox sets those values forcefully, that's why I'm writing this here.

n6w36 mentioned the reason why flash portable doesn't work on any computer was because adobe added protected mode last year
https://portableapps.com/node/37978
and he mentioned the users can only disable it if they have admin access

but one thing I noticed is that protected mode setting doesn't affect opera 12 portable which came out this april. until I came across n6w36's solution, I was using opera all this time. having 2 browsers at the same time was a resource hog sure, but opera 12 portable was the only thing that could use flash at the time.

so this brings the question
