Firefox Portable

Running Firefox Portable stable and Firefox Portable beta simultaneously

Submitted by jetshopit on August 16, 2010 - 6:29am

I want to run the stable and beta versions of Firefox portable together. I'm using, and liking, the Beta, but there's a website or two I use that don't work on the beta so I have to use the stable version for them.

The two versions use separate profiles, and I've set AllowMultipleInstances=true in the FirefoxPortable.ini in both. But still, if the beta is running and I try and launch the stable it brings up another windows of the beta. Closing the beta version makes the stable one come up fine (so it's not that I actually have two copies of the beta!)

Firefox Flash

Hi.
i installed firefox portable on my usb card drive, and encountered a problem:

allthough i used this firefox flash installer which is available here, i have to keep using it everytime i switch computers, or the flash plugin wont work.

dont misunderstand me - i dont get an error message - its just that the flash components of a website wont load until i execute the flash portable installer.

i dont think that this was the plan.

anyone got suggestions?

Greetings

p.s.: excuse me for my cruel english

Compability with Keyscrambler plugin

Am I the only one who does not get the Keyscrambler plugin to work properly in Firefox Portable?

For you who don't know Keyscrambler is an excellent addon, especially for those who uses Firefox Portable on computers they don't trust. Keyscrambler uses seamless encryption technology to thwart keyloggers. And we all know that keyloggers are not very uncommon on public computers.

There is a new FLASH version out, version Flash Player 10.1.82.76. But whatever I try to do to update FLASH in portableapps Firefox, it keeps showing that I have Flash Version: You have version 10,1,53,64 installed.

How on Earth can I update FLASH to 10.1.82.76?

I tried following the steps in another thread but NONE of the steps work!

Any help updating FLASH please?

What if you crash?

What if Firefox crashes and you click on "restart firefox" - does it restart portable.

And if it doesn't, has this screwed something up for the install?

I just click'ed restart by mistake, now i wonder if it might have screwed up the install.

Hi everybody

I have FFP, after use it for a while I love it. I have fixed issues about plug ins like flash-shokwave-real player even I hope to do something about Silverlight but Just now I'm fighting with some kind fo service for video-chat which uses "RTMP CONNECTION", I have tried a lot of things like update my plugins change my net configuration and more but it don't works. I don't know if is my borwser?

Can FFp work with RTMP connection?, I need another plug in? or it is not about FFP?

Thanks in advance.

Firefox Writing To Drive

Submitted by dhartsoc on August 8, 2010 - 11:50pm

Firefox's performance on my Cruzer Micro drive simply stinks. Long load time, 5 second delay after a click to see any action. Improves a bit if I go back to my 4Gb drive rather than the 8.

Does Firefox write a lot of small files to the drive while I am browsing? I am thinking I need to buy a new USB drive and wonder if I should be looking for one that has good performance writing small files.
