it would be nice to copy Firefox with all my settings to a usb memory stick, this would allow me to go to any computer insert the stick and access Firefox with my familiar settings.

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/febe/ You could also use FEBE to backup (see http://softwarebychuck.com/febe/tutorial/febe101.html) and then use this guide to restore your profile onto any other system http://www.customsoftwareconsult.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=593

Thank you for responding. Your solution works well. Only problem is that a workable profile must be created in the FF Mobile directory. I did this by using Firefox Sync. Once again, thank you.

Thanks much for responding. The app works very well. Transferring my profile to the mobile required setting up a usable profile directory on the mobile via sync or adding any extension. Once the profile is established, use Rejjy's method (next response) to transfer your profile to the mobile profile. Thanks again for responding.
