Firefox Portable

Is there a clear and simple guide for adding my old Portable Firefox profile with all my extensions and bookmarks to my new Tor?

If not, can someone post one here?

Sorry for the trouble, but I have been googling this for the last hour, and already screwed up several installations of Tor.

It's much appreciated.

I was just wondering if there was some kind of advantage to running u3 PFF over the regular version.

I am trying to install some of the plugins for Portable Firefox. Only problem is that I use it on several different operating systems (mainly Windows XP/2000 and Ubuntu Linux). Which one should I use when installing plugins with different versions for different OSs?

When faced with letting Firefox's autoupdate feature do an update to PortableFirefox, there are 3 fears:

1. Some of the extensions will stop working. Ok, this one is guaranteed. They tell you about it and even tell you which one. It doesn't matter that you are portable, it's a FFX thing.

2. Your install will be corrupted. One of the joys of portability and big drives is that you can drag a copy off somewhere and, if the original is munged, just bring the good copy back.

3. Your portable FFX will become a non-portable install. Well, I have just gone thru updating of both PFFX and PTB. In both cases, the mini-upgrade fails, the full upgrade succeeds. And while there are Mozilla, Firefox, and Thunderbird folders in Documents and Settings, all the folders are empty.

I see that it has been asked before, but there was not answer. Does anyone know how to force Portable Firefox to go to Portable Thunderbird without making Portable Thunderbird your default email application?

Thanks in advance,

Dan

Hey there,

why there is still no Portable Firefox 1.5.0.4 version available?!

Your update and release of Portable Firefox version 1.5.0.3 was so fast and now?

And no, I don't want to download 1.5.0.3 and then update to 1.5.0.4..

You could say the same procedure to Portable Firefox 1.5.0.2 and then autoupdate to 1.5.0.3..!

Please release it soon, I can hardly wait for this.

thx in advance!

best regards,

I've done the reading but I guess I just don't get it. I want to find a way to sync
FF portable Haller version bookmarks with my FF local copy. Foxmarks addon is new
and most other info does not pertain to flash drives. Where else can I find help?

This is new on the addons site for FF. Not much help given but does anyone know if it will sync between local copy and flash drive?

Question: Is there a way to have html files on a flash drive open with Portable Firefox stored on the same flash drive, even if the drive letter of the device is unknown?

Task specifics: I want to give a person a flash drive which will contain confidential files (written in HTML) to view. Each file contains links to the others and there is a main index page.

I want the person to use Portable Firefox to view these files and to be able to navigate through the file group, but the computers used to plug in the drive will all have IE specified as the default browser and this setting will not be able to be changed.

FF on PNY Attache 1Gb is fast enough, but operations on the Bookmarks file are SL-O-O-O-W. E.g. while saving a bookmark to a new folder, 30-45 sec for each of "New Folder", naming it, and finally saving.

Comment?
