I had to copy the .macromedia/ and .mozilla/ folders to the $SUGAR_ACTIVITY_ROOT/data in my activity's launch script in launch.sh: if [ ! -d $SUGAR_ACTIVITY_ROOT/data/.mozilla ] ; then cp -r ./.mozilla ./.adobe ./.macromedia $SUGAR_ACTIVITY_ROOT/data else echo "$SUGAR_ACTIVITY_ROOT/data/.mozilla exists, nothing to do." fi exec ./firefox-activity.py -u ./activity/Activity/MenuStage.html This would likely be easy for a real programmer but I found it quite difficult.
