Follow the instructions for running Mnemosyne from a USB drive: ____________________________________________________ Running Mnemosyne from a USB drive Using Windows
First, copy the Mnemosyne directory from C:\Program Files to your USB drive, and then copy the .mnemosyne directory from inside your home directory (usually C:\Documents and Settings\<your user name>) to inside the Mnemosyne directory on the USB drive. Alternatively, you can start mnemosyne with the -d option to specify where .mnemosyne directory is located, e.g. F:\Mnemosyne\mnemosyne.exe -d F:\.mnemosyne. Using Linux To run the Linux version from a USB key, untar the source file mnemosyne-X.X.tgz (with X.X the version number) to the USB key. Copy your .mnemosynedirectory to the USB key as well. Change to the directory where the USB key is mounted and type PYTHONPATH=mnemosyne-X.X python mnemosyne-X.X/mnemosyne/pyqt_ui/mnemosyne -d . (This assumes that the system you are working on has Python installed, as well as all the libraries Mnemosyne requires.) ____________________________________________________ You can find these under documentation and then advanced on the web site. Then run the app from drop box. You can, and probably should, uninstall the app from your computers.

Just one final query, if I copy the .mnemosyne directory into dropbox (acting as both backup and sync). Will mnemosyne, the program, recognize its changed location on both computers? Will mnemosyne still be able to read and use the required data, now that the directory has changed location? Once again, thanks for your responses. Up till now I have just copied the .mem file but clearly it doesn't contain all the required history/ memory data etc. Thanks Will On Jan 2, 8:24 am, unpeulent <[email protected]> wrote: Hello William, Furthermore, the .mem file won't be enough to get nice statistics (in Mnemosyne 2.0, I mean). Like you, at the beginning, I was backing up only the .mem file (Cf. http://groups.google.com/group/mnemosyne-proj-devel/browse_thread/thr...), and had wrong/incomplete statistics. Because Mnemosyne uses .mnemosyne/history for that. Now I backup the whole .mnemosyne directory, and have no problem (except a few holes in my statistics, certainly caused by my incomplete first backups).
