portability... but a different question

gio · Beitrag von **gio** » Mi 29. Okt 2008, 11:24

Hello, congrats for your excellent application!

I see the forum is full of requests for portable myphoneexplorer, and i understand your negative answers on the subject (because of admin rights and all that). But i have a slightly different question, let me explain my point of view, as i don't think a full portable MPE application is what would be needed in most cases.

I use portable Thunderbird, and i travel with both the TB application AND all folders/calendar on the memory stick. At the same time, i sync ONLY from my home PC, and synch is currently not possible because the MPE application only recognizes the TB app on my pc and not the one on the memory stick (even if i managed to install the plugin on the memory stick). To be clear, i don't need to travel with MPE on the memory stick. I would only need the MPE app on my pc to detect and allow sync with the TB app on the memory stick.

Sorry if you have already answered to this, but i think it's a different question from what i have seen so far on the forum.

Thanks again and keep up the great work!

MPE does support the portable Thunderbird-Version if it comes from Portableapps.com. Ensure that the portable TB is running when you want to select TB Portable as Sync-Destination.

Hello, thanks for your reply. I got it working doing as you said but only after un-installing the local TB copy on my pc.... i guess MPE finds TB portable only if there is no other copy of TB around the pc (even if the local copy is not running).

Thanks again!
