Using UNetbootin to install TinyCore on a USB stick is not the correct way. TinyCore will think it's on a CD, thus in cloud mode; no apps will be saved.

I'd suggest you start from the beginning. Boot TinyCore from CD - Use TinyCore's installer to reformat and set up a fresh installation on your USB stick. Then you can save apps like firefox but you don't need to use the backup feature. You could edit your  ~/.profile  file and change...

--- Code: ---export BACKUP=1

--- End code ---
to
--- Code: ---export BACKUP=0

--- End code ---
Then do a backup once, and TinyCore won't update your backup (by default) on shutdown.
