Clicking on a hyperlink in message will not result in browser (Chrome) going to that link. System says Google Chrome is default browser.

I tried a couple of the steps suggested by the system but none worked. Some of the others seem complex for a novice hoping to avoid creating other problems.
Just to note, if browser displays web site content which includes a hyperlink, clicking the link will go to that web site, so problem is confined to T'bird-displayed hyperlinks only.

Thanks, I tried a few of those suggestions and none worked. I have to say I'm surprised by the apparent amount of effort it would take to resolve this, especially for a novice, and worry about the potential to further muck up things trying to get a solution. Another surprise is that the program is apparently susceptible to a fault like this creeping in and taking up residence.

  • Clicking on an e-mail address will NOT open Windows Live Mail which is already the default mail program which is already set as the default mail program

    Clicking on an e-mail address will NOT open Windows Live Mail. Windows Live mail is already set as my default e-mail program.

    Sorry you're having this problem. I think it was previously reported only by Windows XP users.
    When you reinstall, were you making Firefox your default browser? Some users have reported that ''not'' making Firefox the default browser was an effective workaround.
    However, you may have success with this approach, suggested by a user in another thread, which appears to more thoroughly update the Windows registry:
    # Open Adobe Reader / Acrobat
    # Edit->Preferences
    # In the Categories column click 'General'
    # Near the bottom of the page click the button marked 'Select Default PDF Handler'
    # In the dialog, select 'Adobe Reader XI' (or Adobe Acrobat, as the case may be) and click 'Apply'
    # A Windows Configuration screen will appear. Allow it to do its stuff (takes a few minutes), then restart your computer when prompted.
    Does that resolve the issue for you?

    sign out of your apple id by going to settings, itunes and app store, click on your applke id click sign out then go to settings, general, reset, then reset all settings when the device comes back on attempt to sign in again if that does not go through. call 1-800-my-apple and tell them what your issue is

  • Bridge Messages will not load messages after 1.0.6.2390 upgrade

    After I updated to 2390, messages will not load, after about 5 minutes it will display content of last message but left side message list will not populate. I just keep giving me the GREEN CIRCLE WAITING and will not load messages. This is the first time I've had any problems with bridge messages. All the other bridge apps (calendar, notes, contacts, bridge browser) all work. I un-installed bridge from my phone (ver 1.0.0.93) and re-installed it, still no luck. I re-booted PB, no luck. Is anybody else having a bridge message problem since 1.0.6.2390 update.

    Knottyrope, I deleted all bluetooth profiles, phone and PB, did battery pull on phone, playbook reset. paired phone with PB and after 8 minutes I can see the header of 1 email message and under the All messages list on left side it is blank and the GREEN CIRCLE of WAITING is still spinning.
    Calender works, contacts works, Bridge browser works, bridge files works, but bridge messages will not load.
    I never had any problem with bridge messages working through all the previous OS upgrades.
    If you did all of that, then maybe there is an issue we cant help with, please call support to get your PlayBook logs, so RIM can address it in a future release or maybe they have a fix we dont know about.

    Hi curliejo, 
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    In your situation I would recommend the steps in the following article for troubleshooting iTunes. It may be necessary to completely remove and reinstall iTunes in this situation. Be sure to remove all of the components with iTunes in the correct order as outlined in the article before installing fresh.

    WILL NOT ALLOW ME TO DOWNLOAD A MOVIE THAT I HAVE A DIGITAL COPY FOR IT GIVES ME A MESSAGE about purchasing a hd version vs the sd version

    Hello everyone,
    I was having the exact same, irritating, problem.  The only way I was able to work around this lovely little quirk was to redeem the code on my iPod touch.  I would guess it would also work on any apple touch pad device.  I only had to input the code once and it began downloading.  I was then able to go back to my iTunes on PC and it began downloading there too.
    *Sidenote: Be sure to uncheck the "Download HD when available" option.
    I hope this works and helps the rest of you. 

  • One contact who has an iPhone but messaging will not send as iMessage

    I have one contact, who has an iPhone, but messaging will not send as iMessage, only text.  All my other contacts with iPhones, the messages go as iMessages - even messages going to people who are not in my contacts.  What is the fix?

    But if that person did not set up an iMessage account on their iPhone, then they cannot receive any iMessages at all, only SMS text messages.
    Both the sender and the recipient must have an iOS device with an active iMessage account.
    There is nothing you can do about it, other than ask them to set up iMessage on their device (which if they don't want to, is their choice).

  • Some voicemail messages will not play - any ideas how to solve this?

    Some voicemail messages will not play on my iphone 4S - any ideas how to solve this?

    People have posted a number of issues recently with HP printers and the TC.
    Do the normal stuff.
    1. Wireless name in the TC by default is not SMB compatible.. make it short no spaces pure alphanumeric.
    2. Lock the channel.. the TC on auto can go crazy.. fix it to 1, 6, or 11 in turn.
    3. Test without security.. if it will not join without security.. you can be pretty sure it never will join with.
    4. If you get nowhere.. highly probable.. lock the wireless mode to a/n - b/g
    This is reducing 2.4ghz to G compatibility. Much more likely to work than N.
    If after all this you have started having ticks in your cheeks and approaching nevous breakdown levels.. give up.. the TC is not 100% compatible with the windows world.. and ALL HP belong to the windows world.
    The solution is simple.. a cheap wireless router.. not apple.. your average garden day, netgear, dlink, even a belkin.. although that is the bottom of the barrel.. in wan bypass. ie fix the IP to same range as the TC.. turn off dhpc.. and plug LAN TC to LAN wireless router. Setup the wireless on this.. fixed channel.. G wireless will be fine.. suitable network name and security.. The HP printer will then be available to the network.. and you didn't even have to slit your wrists.

  • My text messages will not send out since upgrading to iOS7.0.2.

    My text messages will not send out since upgrading to iOS7.0.2.  What do I need to do?

    It seems Apple has a glitch with text/imessages in iOS7 and they are trying to fix it. Many people get it working again by simply restarting thier phone
    For me, restarting the phone kind of corrects it for awile but then it starts doing it again. My phone gives no indication the messages havent gone out till after I restart it! Huge problem since I cant tell when it quits sending! I have to keep restarting my phone a couple times a day to make sure all my texts went out!
    I also found this procedure but it also seems to be only a temporary fix much like restarting your phone.
    Go to Settings and into Messages and disable iMessage. Go into General then into the Reset tab (bottom of the screen). Next, select Reset Network Settings, confirm the choice, and wait for the iPhone to reboot. Once the phone restarts, toggle iMessage back on again.

  • Earlier messages will not load after 8.3 ios update

    The earlier messages will not load for imessage.  The clock turns as if it is going to load but it does not load and then the cursor drops to the bottom of the imessage...

    Not unless you've reported it directly to them (posting it here does not accomplish this as we are just users like you). I don't believe this is a problem with the update or a widespread problem; it seems to be a problem with individual devices. I'm not experiencing it on my 5S. The next step in user troubleshooting would be to back up and restore your software to see if this resolves it.

  • Text messages will not send

    Sometimes my text messages will not send, could be a pic or 3 word what's changed. On wifi same thing

    This has been discussed time and again here in the forums.  Please use the search function before posting.
    A phone reset or going to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings resolves the issue.
    iOS7.0.3 will be available next week that resolves this issue. (quote from KalebsDad7  - it was so well written)
