AIMP instance already running 326jp

Submitted by daniloco on April 9, 2016 - 1:18pm

A couple of days ago, I run AIMP4 from my Portableapps USB drive.
After trying to change some settings it stopped responding and I had to kill the program through System Explorer.
On the next attempt to run AIMP a dialog box showed, stating that an instance of AIMP was already running, and suggesting to terminate it before relaunching.
The dialog box title is "AIMP Portable (portableapps.sitesunblocked.org Launcher)", so that's the reason I'm asking on this forum.
Searching the AIMP supposedly running process gave no result, nor did restarting the machine.

Has this been tested to work? It just says "In progress" and does nothing for me.

[Fixed] jPortable Launcher incompatible with jPortable 8 Update 77 224i4c

Submitted by Andreas Rheinhardt on March 25, 2016 - 2:12pm

I just updated jPortable and found that the jPortable Launcher is incompatible with this new release; this is probably due to a change in the folder structure: The old path to the binaries was \CommonFiles\Java\bin; the new one is \CommonFiles\Java\App\AppInfo\bin. Please update the jPortable Launcher. (Maybe one can make the launcher work via symbolic links so that it finds the necessary files at the right place. But I don't have enough time to experiment with this and just reverted to version 73.)

[Fixed] AkelPadPortable.exe should wait for AkelUpdater.exe 6a32w

If you run AkelPad's built-in updater (AkelUpdater.exe) e.g. to update plugins or scripts (you can also update AkelPad itself this way), by default the updater wants to relaunch AkelPad, however AkelPadPortable.exe does not wait for AkelUpdater, and thus it moves AkelPad's settings back to the Data directory when you close AkelPad (which AkelUpdater asks you to do), causing the app to break the app out of portable mode when AkelUpdater relaunches it.

Songbird Playlists help - Songbird, iTunes, or Doubletwist? 2v122m

Submitted by varxtis on March 23, 2016 - 5:19pm

I recently purchased a 4tb portable drive and wanted to have iTunes on it so I could play my iTunes playlists wherever I go. The closest solution I found was Songbird. But Im having some issues. I copied the music folder ( from "C:\s\varxt\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Music) to the portable drive, then installed Songbird.

[Fixed] Foxit Reader Portable 7.3.4.0311 Update error hb73

Submitted by SGB74 on March 22, 2016 - 12:46pm

updating from the portableapps launcher yields a 404 error. So I did a manual and update. Which was successful, but even after the update, the launcher was still showing foxit reader as being outdated and in need of the same update I just applied.

Seamonkey 2.40 needs fixes 166717

Submitted by mhonline on March 16, 2016 - 8:47am

just for your guidance:
-- with the update to 2.40 the localized versions still can not handle the s (as announced on SM-pages, this will come with 2.42) .. the english version works well
-- when using lightning, both extensions need an update (Lightning and provider for google calendars) .. otherwise the calenders will not be shown

Opera Mail portable - preferences missing 3s471d

Submitted by nicolleen on March 14, 2016 - 8:16am

Hi,

I'm considering switching from Thunderbird to Opera Mail. I have successfully imported and set up my s and everything works fine, I have to get used to a few things.
But there are several adjustable features, only one problem: The menu items are just not there! I have Settings > Preferences > General > Language and Settings > Preferences > Advanced > Notifications, Fonts and Shortcuts. No more. Where are all the preferences that I keep find referring to in the Help file and in google? Are they missing in the portable version in general?
