As minecraft looks for "minecraft.jar" in your "application data" folder, it is impossible to "move" or "copy" any file from there into a new location and run it from there.
There has however been a "minecraft portable" mod, which allows for movement of the .minecraft folder.

∙ 12y agoOn a PC, you:
1. Go to the start menu and search 'Run'
2. type '%appdata% and click run or go or whatever it says in the corner
3. click on the .minecraft folder and go to saves
4. Drag the world save you want to your desktop or wherever you want it
5. Transfer it to other computer
6. Do the same process, but instead of taking a world save, drag the first one in.
NOTE: Make sure they are different worlds and don't overwrite your current ones. This may cause you to rage.
On a Mac, I think its the same way expect you have to look in your application support folder for the one named 'minecraft'.

The saves folder is in a hidden folder in application data called .minecraft. The directory to the folder is: My documents/Application Data/.minecraft.

If this folder does not exist, then perhaps you have not yet played any worlds on that computer or somebody has deleted the folder.

How can you remove Minecraft texture packs without starting the game?
Just go to the .minecraft folder and go to the texture packs folder and delete the zip file. If the texture pack is inside minecraft.jar, too bad for you. You'll just have to make a recovery folder for your saves, delete all the minecraft files and re-download the game.I think as of 1.6 and above (final game, not beta) the resourcepacks folder is now where you put or remove the Texturepacks. There is also no more .bin folder to worry about. Do not fool with any of the other folders as Mojang has pretty much done a rewrite of most of the game so there are only a couple of folders you can change things in now.Don't forget to save your world saves folder before you reinstall Minecraft, you may also want to do a search on which folder you need to save for all your experience points, statistics, Achievements, etc, if you want to save them.On a Mac go to your User Library, Application Support, minecraft folder, everything is in there.
