Firefox & FEBE

Submitted by PDD on August 3, 2007 - 8:36am

Hi Folks,

I have been trying to setup my Portable and Desktop FireFox to synch data with various scripts and one one issue Im having is with FEBE. I have my portable FireFox setup exactly the way I want it with extensions and settings etc. I wanted to do a full backup/export of all this using FEBE but the problem is that FEBE will not export a profile named 'profile'. As portable FireFox doesnt have a profile manager does anyone know how I can change the name of the profile so I can use FEBE and make sure my portable FireFox wil continue to use the right profile?

Regards,

I have a portable hard drive that I use firefox on and I haven't experienced this problem ever until recently. I startup FF portable and all of my addons are gone. I only have my bookmarks but NON of the addons load. Bye bye google sync and everything else. I goto "add-ons" and they are there all enabled, but none are working. I disabled auto update which i thought was the problem, its still doing it!! How can i fix this for the future and right now to get my session manager back that has my 50 tabs i can't remember open!!? Thanks

Firefox 2.0.0.6 portable Windows does not connect to internet

Submitted by Eddi on August 1, 2007 - 4:12am

Hallo,

I run FF 2.0.0.5 for several weeks. Now I updated to 2.0.0.6 and now Firefox is not able to open any page. I simply get the message "Unable to connect".

I downloaded the complete software again (so without any add ons and plug ins) but the original 2.0.0.6 version downloaded has the same problem. I connect directly to the internet and thats also the setting I applied.

Strange is, that IE or thunderbird has not problem at all.

Does anyone has an idea how to solve it?

I am connected to the internet now via IE.

AI Roboform Toolbar for Firefox Extension

Submitted by mario73 on July 28, 2007 - 7:54pm

I have a problem installing the AI Roboform Toolbar for Firefox Extension from the mozilla site. Every time I try to install this extension I've got the following error message:

Invalid file hash (possible download corruption) -261

Using the standard Firefox installation there are no problems installing it. Does anyone have idea or solution to the problem?

Thank you.

FF 2.0.0.5 leaves stuff behind

That is due to the addition of the registry.nsh (the NSIS Plugin) which handles the reg key.
It creates a folder in C:\docs&settings\username\local settings\Temp\
and in that folder there is the registry.dll
I think John forgot to add
${registry::Unload}
to the Launcher. At least all the launchers that have the registry plugin have this line and the new FF Launcher doesnt have it.
Hope this helps.

Firefox 2.0.0.5 installation errors

Submitted by gbwis54301 on July 27, 2007 - 1:09am

I didn't install Firefox right away after downloading it but saved it to the flash drive. From Portable Apps I click on "Explore" then click on the PAF executable gets about 1/10th done and runs into errors saying certain files (such as Firefox.EXE) can't be found. I'm installing to the default directory and not running Firefox.

Think I need to erase my existing Firefox directory and start fresh?
