Firefox Portable

Another instance of Firefox is already running

Submitted by ppps on June 9, 2010 - 3:16am

I need to run 2 separate instances of Firefox portable, because I need to login to the same online app with 2 different accounts. I have tried the addon cookiepie to manage per-tab cookies, but it has unbearable side effects.

So I installed 2 instances of firefox portable, but when I launch the 2nd instance, I get this message. What is the work around?

FFP on CD with PDF Support

Submitted by knolle on June 7, 2010 - 12:00pm

Hi folks,

I tried to launch a project on CD with FFP, a HTML-Site as navigation and the corresponding PDF-Files for all the data.

How to I get the FFP to open .pdf in a local (means on CD) portable PDF-Reader such as foxit or sumatra...??

On my PC it works well, but as soon as I switch the computer, it says that it cannot find the path for the supporting program...

Thanks,

Knolle

When I got to the game site it says i need to install java runtime environment.

Bookmarks disappear

Submitted by Airazz on May 31, 2010 - 5:24pm

I have a bunch of bookmarks in Firefox Portable. One of them keeps disappearing. I mean, I connect the USB, launch the software, open Firefox and the link is missing. I add it, it works. But just until I close the Firefox. If I open it, the link is missing again. It kept happening with one particular link (I think it was tinyurl.com website), now it's another perfectly normal, usual link. All other themes and pug-ins work fine. I have plenty of empty space on my USB. What is the problem?

CD drive number issue - again

Submitted by dmagill on May 26, 2010 - 2:08pm

I apologize for bring this up again... and possibly again... and yet again

I have a educational CD going out to some pretty extreme places. Most have no Internet, so your FFP is a great product and it was easy to setup with Flash.

Currently I am working off a jump drive. I followed the CD creation steps, and have burned a CD, in both instances I run into the drive letter issue.

Firefox Portable Acting Up

Submitted by dhartsoc on May 26, 2010 - 1:05am

Just yesterday some of my extensions quit loading, as well as the theme I use. Would this be a corrupted Profile, and is there anything I can do about it? My passwords are all still there, as well as bookmarks.

First noted this on a Windows 7 netbook, and again today on XP computers at work. At one point I reinstalled the Whitehart theme and all the missing extensions were restored. At home tonight they are gone again as is the theme.

Oh,Firefox Portable 3.6.3
