When I send a link, the receiver of the link cannot open it by clicking on it.

I have set my default email properly and a link is able to be sent to an address but the recipient cannot open the link by clicking on it. I am using a new computer now and everything worked perfectly on my old computer.

Hi.
That is happening (most likely) because Firefox is not storing your browsing history for long, or at all. Go into Tools > Options > Privacy and make sure the configurations are set as you want them to be. If they are, it's likely you have some security software that's erasing your Firefox's history (and possible other browsers' if you have them installed). The most likely suspects are antiviruses, firewalls and security suites, but clean-up utilities like CCleaner are also capable of cleaning Firefox's browsing history and other personal data. Make sure you don't have them configured to do so.
I should remind you, however, that some sites (they are rare, though) don't have their links change color when visited. That happens only when their authors deliberately make them not change the colors. You can force websites to use a color scheme of your choice by going into Tools > Options > Content > Colors... and unticking "Allow pages to choose their own colors". You can also configure the color scheme in that screen.
I hope this helps.

When sending email from my Mac, Word documents do not send correctly. The recipient cannot open them. Any idea why???

I have been dealing with this forever. No matter what format I save a Word document in (.doc .docx or whatever else), the recipient (microsoft user) is still not able to open the file in word. Does anyone have any idea why? It's driving me a little nuts.

Right, I may have misunderstood what you meant by download to desktop. When I click the attachment, I can either "Open with: Text Edit (drop-down menu)" or Save. But save doesn't save to desktop. I can "Open with: Microsoft Word" fine.
When I compose an email, I click attach. I select the file that is in a .docx format. It appears to load to the email correctly, and if I click that extension, it opens correctly in Word out of the pre-sent email. After being sent, it appears in god knows what format and wishes to open from TextEdit.
Was I doing something wrong when you wanted me to download to desktop?

Does anyone know why when I send an emotiocom the recipient doesn't receive it?

Thanx.
I'm not sure if the recipient is using plain text or not and I don't think they could tell me if they were. I only know they're using an older PC . . . I'm sending in Rich text.
I've been sending them by goin' to Edit>Special Characters>selecting the emoticon from the list and inserting where I've clicked in the message which works when I send a message to myself.
I thought the other end might be getting them as attachments, but I don't know for sure. I've been goin' through my manual to find some sort of reference to that issue, but came up with nuthin'. I imagine I could try to send a plain text email to see what happens.

With emails when I send a link it cannot be opened but has to be cut and pasted by the recipient - how can I avoid this

When I send a link to a page or website via email (Hotmail or Yahoo) it cannot be opened by the recipient. Instead it needs to be cut and pasted into their browser bar for them to open it.
This problem only started after loading Firefox on my computer and I wonder if you can help in any way.

Just above the textarea that you use to enter the message text there is usually a button bar with buttons to add text formatting like Bold and Italic.<br />
That toolbar may also have a button to turn a text link into a clickable hyperlink (look for a chain like button).<br />
You can select the text and click that button to turn the link into a clickable hyperlink.<br />
If you can't find the button then hover them all to check the tooltip of each.<br />

Use the Settings app tO check what's in your email account information.
Ssettings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Tap on your email account > in the Account Information is your name or your husbands name listed in the first line?
if your husbands name is there change it to your name.

When I send an Imessage the receiving party sees my apple id / email instead of my name.

Hello,
When I send an Imessage the receiving party sees my apple id / email (is the same in my case) instead of my name from their contacts. This worked fine but sudenly it has changest. People reply with 'who are you'. When they send an Imessage to me from an old conversation witch used to work with Imessage it is send as SMS.
I have tried all settings under settings > messages.
I read on this communitie other people have the same problem but no one seems to have the solution.
Anyone?
Thanks.

I found the solution. At work we compared settings and several people had this same issue....
The solution is:
Settings > messages > receive on > Use Apple Id for iMessage - needs to be switched off.
Strange thing i don't know how ik got switched on....
But it is solved.

When i send a imessage the reciever see's it as sent from my email adress why and how do i change

when i send a imessage the reciever see's it as it was sent from my email adress rather than my phone number, why, and how do i stop this?

settings -> messages-> receive at-> caller ID -> [choose your phone number]
The advantage of using your email address is so that imessages sync across your icloud devices. But if the only apple device you have is an iphone, then your phone number would be the obvious choice to pick here.
Once ios6 comes out, this situation won't matter (they're fixing the sync of imessages across devices)

I assume you are sharing one?
You can share an Apple ID for purchases but you both should have separate Apple ID for iCloud, iMessage, & FaceTime.
Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > Apple ID: > Sign out as you and in as him

Hi Sunny C,
Welcome to the Support Communities! The "From" field should be showing by default, but you can check or change your settings for Mail with the instructions below:
Mail (Yosemite): Set Mail preferences
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH19178
In the Composing pane, you can set the email account that you want to send new messages from.
Also, check the View command on the Menu bar. View > Message Attributes should have a checkmark beside the "From" field.
Cheers,
Judy

Does your daughters email address show up as one of the options in the From line as discussed above? If so, try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank then power ON again in the normal way.] It is 'appsolutely' safe!

If you're using T-Mobile in the US, T-Mobile is NOT a supported carrier of the iPhone. Not all features will work.

I am using Mail 5.3 with two separate gmail addresses. One is personal the other is business. When I send emails from the business address, any auto-replies I get COME TO THE PERSONAL INBOX. I imagine that this is a setting? Please help!

I am using Mail 5.3 with two separate gmail addresses.
One is personal the other is business.
When I send emails from the BUSINESS address, any auto-replies/out of office notices I get come to my PERSONAL INBOX.
I imagine that this is a setting? Please help!

Edit the SMTP server list. Add a new one for the business account. Put the correct password and information for it. Give it a description so you will know which server is which. Mke sure the correct server is highlighted in the account selected and check the box to use only that server for that account. Do that for the other account also.
