Firefox Portable

I just installed the 1.5.0.6 update from within firefox. When I launched the new browser everything was messed up. I lost my history, bookmarks, extensions, saved passwords, and my sessions from session manager. My firefox went back to the way it was about a month ago. Even extensions that I had uninstalled came back. Is there any way to recover this data? What caused this issue?

I have been using portable firefox on my hard drive, not usb drive. I believe I downloaded 1.5.0.2 or something near that and upgraded to everything in between with the updater in firefox. This problem only happene

I fill the Bookmarks Toolbar at the top with rows of folders. When I click on a folder and the menu drops down, the spacing between the bookmarks is alot wider than with Firefox 1.0.7. (This also applies to the regular menus - file, edit, view, etc.)

Is there a way to narrow this space? I want to see the full set of bookmarks in each folder that drops down (like in FF 1.0.7) without having to scroll below the bottom of the screen. Thanks.

I just helped a friend rebuild a Firefox profile after they crufted it up pretty good. (installing and uninstalling lots of extensions can do that) I was wondering if there were interest in having a how-to on fixing FF profiles and, possibly, a rebuilder that would save out your cookies, passwords, bookmarks, etc, and rebuild the rest of the profile (sans extensions). Whaddya think?

Before switching to portable apps I used to let Bon Echo and Thunderbird download the nightlies so I could try and report bugs on them.

Are there settings in Firefox Portable or Thunderbird Portable I may have missed that would allow this to continue?

Ever since Shockwave Flash did some upgrade on my Internet Explorer (yes it HAS to be on my machine), I cannot use my Firefox, as after viewing some pages with Flash, it crashes and closes.

VERY annoying.
Tried to uninstall Shockwave from the computer, did not help
Tried to install new 10.1 shockwave, did not help
Tried to use fresh, clean install of firefox portable, did not help
Tried to download shockwave plugin for the new Firefox, failed to install it.

Can you suggest any help????

Hi,
Does anyone out there know why my Firefox Portable does not save any History or Download info once I exit it. How can this be solved?

Thanks in advance

Forget the dern thumbdrive -- Why should I use regular ol' Firefox on my desktop?

Eh?

I am trying to use PortableFirefox from a CD but my homepage will not stay. I want it to be a file that is also on the cd. How can I make the homepage stay what I want?

I ditched the 'for U3' version of PFF (and PTB) in favor of 'plain old' PFF and PTB...and I'm happy with the results.

Is there a way to make these apps appear on the U3 launchpad? For example, would adding this line to the XML file do the trick?

[illegal symbol]APPLICATION guid="FirefoxPortable" launchOnStart="N" lastUsed="2/27/2006 11:01:21">\Firefox_Portable_1.5.0.6_en-us.exe[illegal symbol]/APPLICATION

(Where "illegal symbol" refers to the sideways "v" that is not allowed in these forums.)

Thanks for your help.

I signed up for Shutterfly's photo service - I have friends that rave about the service, and it all seems good so far. The problem is that Shutterfly's plug-in for mass uploading of pictures crashes my Firefox Portable. They specifically work with Firefox and have had no similar problems there.

My question:

With all the users of Firefox Portable, is anyone else successfully using Shutterfly? [ie: is it a problem specific to my computer?]

Is there a way I get someone else to try Shutterfly and see if they can duplicate this error?

If it is a real problem and not just me, does anyone have advice I can pass on to Shutterly's tech people so they can modify their plug in to also work with Firefox Portable?
