Firefox Portable

If your Firefox Portable no longer loads, it may be because you have installed/upgraded Norton NIS to 2010. This installs (whether you want it or not, even in Firefox Portable) 2 Norton extensions (Norton IPS 2.0 and Norton Toolbar 4.0) that are incompatible with several other extensions (such as IE View) and prevent Firefox 3.5.x from even starting. As a solution, you can disable these Norton extensions by first starting Firefox in safe-mode.

I have installed release 3.5.3 on a thumb drive. I have set a master password as well as checked "Remember site password". Neither of these functions are working. I can start Firefox Portable with no log in and site passwords are not remembered.

Any suggestions for fixing?

Thanks for your help.

Hello.

Firefox can look in other way on my work term?
It can only show 256 colors, and FF look pretty ugly.
Like this
FF looks like this
and IE looks like this
everything is the same.
how can I make FF look better, like IE, at least?

Hello all.

I am rebuilding my website in a local server environment (Server2Go), and each time I shut the local server down I lose FFportable bookmarks.

I am wondering if anyone has worked with Server2Go (or something similar) and figured out a way to conserve bookmarks from session to session.

Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

Best regards,

Hi

I set my FirefoxPortable to save and restore my tabs at the next time opening it... and it usually works, 99 times out of 100. But in 1 time out of the 100 when I reopen FirefoxPortable, all I have is a blank screen. And I am not happy about the situation that I can't trust it. Do you have the same issue too?

Version FirefoxPortable 3.0.x, and it used to be the same, since forever. Do you know -if you have this issue with Portable Firefox-, does regular Firefox also have it, or only the Portable version?

I believe any one using Portable Firefox on a Flash Drive is in danger of leaving private confidential data behind on the system drive after they have closed Firefox and safely removed the Flash.

Photobox shows me the first page of snapshots in a photo album with 700+ snapshots when I use this link.

Hullo!

I am using PortableApps on a corporate build PC on which I ahve no admin account.
The last time I installed Flash and Shockwave in my FirefoxPortable install was about a year ago - I am not that bothered about being cutting edge, so there was no need to upgrade until now. But I seem to be unable to achieve much...

I followed the recommendations from this site:
https://portableapps.com/support/firefox_portable#plugins

I would like to be able to install multiple versions of Firefox on my Portable Apps thumb drive.

Specifically, I'd like to install 3 and 3.5, but they both seem to use the same directory. I discovered that when I tried to install 3 and it overwrote 3.5

I already know how to run multiple versions at the same time, and installing one version on the computer and one on Portable Apps isn't really the answer I am looking for, as I'd like to carry my own configurations of both versions with me between home and work.

Thanks for any help!

Edit: Due to the large amount of addons, I am only listing those that are known NOT to be portable. Please only report addons that don't work.

As an avid user of FireFox Portable, I use alot of addons. However, I don't like to leave traces on the PCs I visit. So I decided to begin a short list of addons that are not portable. If you know an addon that is not portable, please comment.
