Creatimg hyperlink within an email

How do you turn a site address into a hyperlink in an email?
Power PC G4(3.3)   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

Yet hyperlinks sent to my parents' computers (Windows XP using Thunderbird) don't automatically work as hyperlinks. Yes it has the "http://" before it, and I've tried tinyurl in case the URL was split, but no luck. Yet it DOES work if I reply to that same message; somehow the quoting process enables Thunderbird to see it as a genuine hyperlink that is clickable.
Any thoughts how to save my annoyances at having to reply to enable broken hyperlinks?
Gracias
Kevin

  • Hyperlinks within Crystal Reports

    Hello,
    I am using Crystal Reports to create a statement. We would like to include hyperlinks in our report. We have already created hyperlinks within the report. The hyperlinks are only operational when I click within the subreport. I want to process my report to a PDF and have the hyperlinks work. Any Suggestions? I am currently working in Crystal 8.5 (we have 10 but our database is not matching up).

    As an alternative, at least one of the 3rd-party Crystal Reports Manager tools listed at http://www.kenhamady.com/bookmarks.html can use visible or hidden (white font) formulas anywhere within a Crystal report (including inside subreports) to create file, web, or email links at that same location within the pdf export of the report. Optionally, an image (such as a .png button image can be added to provide a GUI for the link.

  • Internal hyperlinks within Apple Mail

    Does anyone know how to create internal hyperlinks within Apple Mail?
    For instance, I want to put something like "contents" at the start of an email where I can click on the title
    Content 1
    Content 2
    Content 3
    to bring me to the paragraphs below
    Content 1
    blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,
    blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,
    Content 2
    blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,
    blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,
    Content 3
    blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,
    blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,
    Thanks! Much appreciated.

    I think you would probably have to create an HTML page with anchors and then "share" that via e-mail. While HTML does support this, and Apple Mail supports HTML e-mail, such a thing was never intended. Modern e-mail is big hack-job. It is unlikely that such an e-mail message would really work in practice the way you expect.

  • Instant Message Hyperlink Within CS6 Document

    Hi all,
    I was wondering if anyone is aware of a way to create an instant message hyperlink within an Indesign CS6 document. 
    The document is being produced for my firm and it is for internal use only, we all use Lync 2010 so there should be no problem with using sip:[email protected] (in the same way you would use email:[email protected]) as the hyperlink text - I've used this in other applications and it works great.  The problem with Indesign is it requires that you stipulate the type of hyperlink you are creating i.e URL, email etc.
    By the way (in case anyone has any other suggestions) the reason I want to do this is to create a live chat button within the document.  I will be exporting the document as a SWF.
    Thanks in advance
    Shaun

    I just tried this myself, and the keyboard shows when touching an email address link in an SMS and opening Mail. I'm using iOS 4.1 beta, so I can't be sure if there is a bug in 4.0 or 4.0.1.
    However, if resetting didn't work, try restoring in iTunes using a backup, or as a new iPhone if necessary.
    Note, that if your phone is jailbroken or hacked to unlock, all bets are off and restoring may brick your phone.

  • Two instances of Firefox open when I click on a link within my email client. How can I stop this from happening?

    I am running on an iMac OS X 10.6.3 using Firefox 3.6.3 as my default browser and I use Postbox 1.1.5 as my email client. Anytime I click on a link within an email message two instances of Firefox open, one with my home page and one with the site the link was meant for. This happens only when Firefox is not already open. If Firefox is running and a link is clicked on it opens normally within the open instance of Firefox. I have contacted Postbox and am currently awaiting a response to see if they have any suggestions. While this is not a serious issue it is a bit annoying. I have Firefox set to open new links in tabs not new instances of windows, so it shouldn't be that. Any help in getting this to stop would be greatly appreciated.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == Not sure, it's been going on for quite awhile.

    That is a bug on Mac.
    See https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=531552 - Firefox 3.6b opens two windows when opening external links

  • Everytime I try to open an attatchment within an email it won't open, asks me to send an error message.

    Every time I try to open an attachment within an email it won't let me open it, it gives me the window with the choice of sending and error messg or do not send an error messg.
    Also, when I click on the Firefox icon to get online it takes like a minute or so for the internet to come up. Both of these isssues have been going on for about a month.
    Please advise me of what I should do to correct this, thanks so much. Edie Wolford

    HI Ana ...
    I had FB working again two days ago, and yesterday in mid-serve Safari just "couldn't find the server" once more...
    That's a different issue...
    First, if you can just use English, open System Preferences > Language & Text then select the Language tab. Drag English to the top of the list then restart your Mac.
    Now for the server issue. Try using Open DNS. That shold help the "couldn't find the server" issue...
    Open System Preferences / Preferences then select the Network tab. Click the Advanced tab then click the DNS tab.
    Click +
    Enter these numbers exactly as you see them here.
    208.67.222.222
    Click +
    208.67.220.220
    Then click OK.
    Try accessing Facebook on Safari now.

  • Hyperlinks within .PDF document won't open in browser.

    So what I want to happen is when I click a hyperlink within a .PDF file which is opened via Adobe Reader XI, I want a new tab/browser (the link) to be opened with/in Chrome.
    Currently when I hover my mouse over a link, it turns into a clicky hand thing with a tiny letter 'w' and the address floats above in a box. When I try to shift/normal/ctrl click the link, nothing happens.
    Default settings in the reader and chrome.
    Thanks!

    Yes. If I open this .pdf file in chrome and click the link, a new tab will open with the link.
    Also, I just found something else out. When I open the settings in Adobe Reader and try clicking on the 'help' links such as 'What is protected view' under 'security', I get a message saying "Online help content cannot be displayed. Verify you can launch your web browser and have access to the Internet".

  • HT5858 I have had difficulty launching sites from within my email messages.  So, in trying to revert to the default settings on my iPad I went into "Settings" and reset everything.  Now, I have a black screen with a white apple and a white line!  What do

    For the last severl weeks I have had difficulty launching sites from within my email messages.  Thinking that I may have gone into "Settings" and set something wrong, I decided to reset to the default settings.  So, in "Settings" I chose reset everything.  Now, when I turn my iPad on all I get is a black screen with the picture of a white apple and a white line below it.  Nothing else works.  What can I do?  Do I need to send this back to Apple to be restored?

    You will hopefully be able to restore it yourself. It sounds like you erased all constant and settings rather than resetting all settings. But I'm basing my theory on the fact that you are seeing the Apple logo with the white progress bar (the white line) on the screen. That's what you would see if the software was being reinstalled and then it stopped on you. If that is what happened, you need to restore again and most likely need to use recovery mode.
    You can read about recovery mode here.
    Recovery mode - Apple
    However ...... If you are seeing the white line when you turn the iPad, let it go for twenty minutes or so, before you try restoring again. There is possibility that the software is still be installed and it can take a while before you see that white line move at all indicating that progress is being made.
    Frankly, I don't think that the software is still being installed, but since you didn't say specifically how long the iPad has been like this, it could just be that the software hasn't finished installing yet. If you know better - meaning that it's been like this for hours or longer, then you do need to restore the device.

  • I am trying to scan document that I will then attach in an email.  When I attach it it shows up as a picture within the email instead of an attachment an people can't open it.  Any help here?

    I am trying to scan document that I will then attach in an email.  When I attach it it shows up as a picture within the email instead of an attachment an people can't open it.  Any help here?

    What kind of Mac are you using, and what version of the operating system?
    You should be able to select the document that you want to attach and then use the contextual menu (right click in some worlds) to compress the document, producing a .zip file. You can then attach that to the email and it won't appear as a picture within the email.
    If I recall this correctly, the "compress" part in the contextual menu may have a different terminology.

    How can I inset a hyperlink within a sticky so that it can be clicked on and link directly to the hyperlinked site?

    Dick --
    I ran into the same hyperlink issue with some of my PDF documents that were signed, precluding any changes. After exhausting avenues in Acrobat, on a whim I typed an updated path in Word, made it a hyperlink, then copied the link and pasted it into a sticky note. Wonder of wonders, it worked. Who'd have thought Word is actually good for something other than writing letters?

  • Adding a hyperlink to the email notification for leave approval

    Hi All,
    Is it be possible to have a hyperlink in the email notification that goes to the approver ( for a leave ) so that the approver can click on the link and be taken straight to the ESS/ MSS portal to approve/reject the leave request?
    Regards
    AK

    Basically you can modify the standard task too. Of course it is not recommended, but maybe it is not that bad, if you only need to modify the work item text (and the variables are already available in the container, so you don't need to do any additional bidnings and container elements (or do you?)).
    Other options is that you take a copy of TS12300097 and a copy of the leave request worfklow template, and then do the changes to these copies. Then you just need to remember to also check the SPRO settings, that your copy of workflow is started instead of the standard workflow.

  • I have set hyperlinks within my ibook author document, they work perfectly until i export and view on the ipad, when only one or none work, (hyperlinks to website not working at all) what am i doing wrong?

    I have set hyperlinks within my ibook author document, they work perfectly until i export and view on the ipad, when only one or none work, (hyperlinks to website not working at all) what am i doing wrong?

    An external hyperlink should handoff to Safari and leave iBooks.
    If that's not happening, perhaps there is something misconfigured on your iPad? Have you manually confirmed those links work in Safari on your iPad?
