Associate Safari with mail 6.5

After upgrading to Mountain Lion i was reading my email in Mail 6.5 and tried to click on a link to view a website in Safari. I received an error message that the was no application associated with that action. I would like to associate Safari as the helper app to view links in Mail.

Well, as soon as I posted, there were "More like this" tips listed to the righjt of my post. The very first tip (same issue in Snow Lepaord) solved my issue.

Hello, Shawn.
Here is an article you may find helpful when troubleshooting issues sending email.

My wife and I both have MacBooks (I have MacBook Pro and she has Air) and both are associated with my apple ID since I bought them. However, this means that Safari is linked for both her and I as well as our contacts etc. Can I still use mine ID for apps for her but associate hers with her own ID that I have yet to make?

Well with the MS Hotmail/Outlook.com account that is hard. But she should be able to link all of it to the iCloud system using her Apple ID.
I suggest you do a Google search for "link contacts, Calendars, iMessage with iCloud".
For some stupid reason MS has limited the syncing/linking of only emails and Notes with the Hotmail/Live Mail/Outlook.com system.
They have not included any Exchange features for syncing all that info. That is unless you are using Outlook 2013 and that is only for Windows.

Problems with Mail, Safari and iTunes after updating to 10.5.6

Hi all,
after installing 10.5.6 I have problems with Mail, Safari and iTunes.
The time to open mails, websides and iTunes store is increasing dramatically since the update. If I open a webside parallel with Safari and Firefox, Safari needs minimum 15 times longer to open the complete side. Mails containing HTML-code also needs a long time to be opened. Tha same Problem with iTunes store. Connecting to the Store costs at least 30 - 40 seconds. And unfortunately for every iTunes store side I open. Its terrible
Any idea or workaroung to solve that problem?
Regards
Michael

First, run Disk Utility and repair permissions and then restart.
I installed the 10.5.6 Combo update. Sometimes things get "lost in the translation" when you use Software Update depending on your installation. Perhaps you can download 10.5.6 Combo from the website and install it from your desktop.

Problems with Mail and Safari

Hi,
I'm running OS 10.11 and am having some consistent problems with Mail and Safari on my MacPro Dual 2.66. Here they are:
Sometimes, for no apparent reason, selecting these applications from the dock no longer opens the application (or a new window if already opened), but causes them to be revealed in the finder.
In Safari, when this problem occurs, another symptom seems to be that new windows will ONLY open in a new tab, even though I have preferences set to open links in a new window. If I click on a bookmark within a folder in the bookmark toolbar, Safari will open ALL the bookmarks in the folder in new tabs!!
In Mail, when I open my Inbox, clicking on various messages will highlight (in blue) ALL the messages I'm clicking on, instead of simply displaying the highlighted message in the reader.
The only way to get things back to normal is to reboot my machine, which is getting to be a total drag, especially since this seems to happen fairly often.
One other thing that may be related- if my screen saver is running, and I move the mouse to go to an active screen, the computer will "freeze." It stays like this indefinitely- I figured out that if I press the button on the machine itself it will go to sleep, and I can wake it up and then everything is fine, but I don't understand what's going on.
I have tried using Disk Utility and Disk Warrior, and have used OnyX to clean out my system cache and aall sorts of other stuff, but to no avail.
Is anybody else experiencing any of this? I'm starting to get really frustrated. Thanks for any advice.
Cheers,
Andrew

Scott,
I had posted earlier that I had Flash payer problems and then QuickTime and PDF preview problems too, on my Intel PowerMac. I could not figure out what the problem was, because fixing permissions and moving plugins did not work. Console indicated that the Quicktime components were not found, with the problem in a webkit pref file somewhere (nil field value). Anyway, I bailed and reinstalled Leopard from a 10.5.0 DVD, and then updated using the combo updater to 10.5.3. Everything worked. Then, after the 'Java for Mac OSX 10.5 Update 1', it all broke again. This time, repairing permissions resulted in:
User differs on "System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.4.2/Home/lib/jvm.cfg", should be 0, user is 95.
User differs on "System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/1.4.2/Libraries/classlist" , should be 0, user is 95.
Now it all works again. This is obviously a flaw with the Java update, and also somehow Disk Utility did not find it earlier. Anyway, take a look at reverting the Java update, or manually changing user for those files (I suppose user 0 is root, but maybe it is nobody).
Obscure....

10.6.8 introduces several problem with mail, on one machine doesn't start on another it can't be seen from Safari, is that normal?

I don't what's going on with 10.6.8
Mail is suffering several problems.
first of all, I made all the standard routines... permissions, etc.
1) on one machine it starts, the dock icon is bouncing endless, and even forcing the index rebuilt, doesn't help.
2) on another machine, mail is not recognized by Safari, it is not there it says (My fear is that is Safari the problem? Strange)...
Do you have any other issue with Mail?

I have reinstalled the combo update, last night... The Mail app works ok on one mac, but is isolated, so no other app can send to Mail.app any email content.
Here you have the snapshots.
and this is the info.
I don't know what to do more... Shall I fill a bug report?

TS3366 iOS 7: Back and Forward Gesture in Safari and Mail conflicts with Panning Gesture

Back and Forward Gesture in Safari and Mail is different than the back and forward gesture used to swipe between Home screens. The simple swipe with the thumb straight does not work in Safari and Mail, it conflicts with the Panning gesture. It should be relatively easy to improve the algorithm to allow for that gesture to work.

Indeed, swiping back from pdf pages sometimes works, but most often does not.
It seems that the swiping gesture has in all cases changed slightly. It is now necessary to swipe a little until a portion of the previous page is uncovered, and only then can one swipe back.
The fact that there is a specific way to swipe back from html pages suggests that there might be an equally specific way to swipe back from pdf pages. I am still experimenting. Meanwhile make sure no one is sitting to your right in case your trackpad flies off during a gesture trial.

OS X cocoa apps like Safari and Mail don't like non-Unicode fonts using common names that replace Latin with symbols or other scripts. Helvetica Fractions and Times Phonetic are common culprits. You need to remove such fonts to solve the problem.

Help Please I can't print IE or Safari with 10.4.4

Can anybody HELP ME PLEASE. I have upgraded to 10.4.4 and now I can't print from Internet Explorer or Safari. I don't have any problems with Mail or any other programs. I just can't print any web pages and I need to do that often.
I have tried all the trouble shooting from the Apple site and nothing works. Everything seems good. I am using a HP all-in-one 2200 series printer. I have updated the driver for it to 3.0.1.
Please don't get really technical with answers, cause I'm a mechanic not a programer:)

Please do a search on the forum for "safari blank pages" or something similar. I believe that a workaround to this problem appeared a little while ago. Hope this helps.

Help please-"Application Not Responding" for Safari and Mail

I read in one discussion that if Safari is slow, you can go to Font Book and select the fonts with a bullet to get rid of duplicate fonts. I did that, and then decided to disable some japanese fonts I don't use.
Now Safari and Mail don't work. Mail won't open at all, and Safari launches but doesn't load and I get the spinning wheel.
I used Disk Utility to fix permissions, and that didn't solve the problem, and now my Disk Utility also says "Application Not Responding".
I also went back to Font Book and enabled all the fonts I disabled. Still nothing.
( I can use Netscape-so it's only Mac applications I guess)
Any help is very much appreciated.
Thanks!

Wow- i fixed it! I remembered that when I was in Font Book originally, there were some fonts disabled, and I enabled them.
I couldn't remember EXACTLY which ones, but I disabled some I thought were the ones, and VOILA!
Mail works, Safari works...what a relief!
And it only took me HOURS...oh well.
If this might help anyone, here are the fonts I disabled again-
BeteNoirA Regular
BoyzRGross
Chrome Yellow
Coventry Garden

HardlyWorthit

Anyone know if I should throw these fonts away? maybe a stupid question, but I'm not very good at this stuff and hesitate to change anything.

Updated to 10.9.3, issues persist with Mail.

Just updated to 10.9.3, and seemingly nothing looks to be fixed....at all.
Since Mavericks 10.9 release, issues with Mail have been ongoing for me.
Gmail is still hit/miss--sometimes mail notifications come in, sometimes not.
VIP Folders randomly and grey out on the horizontal "favorites" bar.
Unread mail shows up in the Archive, Sent, and Trash folders. (esp. the iCloud account)
As of 10.9.3, mail notification sounds stopped working reliably--sometimes yes, most times no.
As for Mavericks itself....
Slow to sleep, boot, and shutdown. I bootcamp with Windows 8.1 for work on an Early '11 MBP (8GB RAM, 750GB HDD), when I drop the lid or boot the machine, everything is snappy. Even with a clean install (under 10.9.2), it's just slow. 10.9.3 has done nothing to fix this, now I get the spinning beachball for nearly 2min after the desktop shows.
Notification sounds (i.e. trash, mail, etc.) seem to be intermittent since installing 10.9.3.
Safari will flicker the browser window when scrolling webpages, usually the lower 1/2 of the page; installed 10.9.3, no change. Running on discrete (Radeon) GPU and the issue appears less pronounced but still happens.
This is just sad. I spend 1/2 my time in Windows 8.1 for work and Mavericks is just dog slow and glitchy by comparison. I can't help but wonder if there is a diffusion of talent going on with Apple's programmers lately.
Anyway, if anyone has advice or suggestions on anything I've listed, please advise.
Thanks!

Software update and now Safari and Mail open and then close immediately

We installed the latest 8-1 software updates on our G4 and Cube.
Now Safari and Mail open and then immediately quit on the Cube - but no peroblems are experienced on the G4.
Do I need to reinstall Tiger and start over?

A couple of things to try before taking those drastic measures.
1. Repair permissions, restart.
2. Boot with the install disk, launch Disk Utility, and verify/repair the disk.
3. Boot into safe mode and see if it works there.
4. Reinstall the 10.4.7 COMBO update, restart, repair permissions, and restart.
If those don't work, consider Archive & Install rather than an Erase & Install. See http://www.apple.com/support/tiger/install/ for details.

I can't open the app store, safari the mail app, youtube app and the maps app. they try to open then close very quickly. what can I do?

Try downloading another app - any free app - that seems to reset something and the apps may start working again. Try that first. If that doesnt work, try these steps
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Close all apps. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
