Default Hyperlink Colour Mail?

Is there a way to set the default hyperlink colour in mail. I know how to change the colour for each link individually, but this can become time consuming.
Thanks.

Anyone managed to change default hyperlink colour or to globally change hyperlink colour in Pages????

- Thats all I want to do, the holy grail of desktop publishing, being able to choose a colour and apply it everywhere, c'mon Apple sort it out, its surely not rocket surgery....

I figured it out.
Select one instance of the hyperlink, and define it as a character style in the styles drawer.
Then create the preferred style you want to use for hyperlinks and save it to character styles.
You can select every instance of the original link style, and replace with the preferred style.
Hopefully I've explained this adequately.
Cheers.

Hyperlinks in mail not working

Bit of an odd problem. If I click on a hyperlink in mail with Safari closed it does nothing. Again if I right and select the open option from there it does nothing. If Safari is open, irrespective of what page it's on, Safari opens in front of mail, but doesn't take me to the page it just stays on the page it opened at.. It seems to stem from my installing Chrome, which I have now uninstalled using 'CLEAN MY MAC'. When I go into Safari preferences I now expect to only see one default web browser, but the Chrome option still appears. I have tried resetting Safari. Can I delete and re install Safari or is there a plist or something that is corrupt.

"CleanMyMac" is a scam and a common cause of instability and poor performance. The developer's instructions don't completely remove it. Follow those instructions, then do as below.
Back up all data before proceeding.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac2.Agent.plist
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Repeat with this line:
/Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/com.macpaw.CleanMyMac2.Agent
Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Never again install "CleanMyMac" or anything like it.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
Then reinstall the OS.* You don't need to erase the startup volume, and you won't need the backup unless something goes wrong. If the system was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you may need the Apple ID and password you used.
If you use FileVault 2, then before running the Installer you must launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the FileVault startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) It will be nested below another icon with the same name. Click the Unlock button in the toolbar and enter your login password when prompted. Then quit Disk Utility to be returned to the main Recovery screen.
If you installed the Java runtime distributed by Apple and still need it, you'll have to reinstall it. The same goes for Xcode. All other data will be preserved.
*The linked support article refers to OS X 10.9 ("Mavericks"), but the procedure is the same for OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later.

Breaking Hyperlinks in mail

When I place a long hyperlink in an e-mail message it "breaks" when received by the recipient thought it looks perfect when I send it. For instance:
It looks like this when I place a hyperlink in an e-mail message:
http://discussions.apple.com/post!default.jspa?forumID=960
When received by the recipient it looks like this:
http://discussions.apple.com/post!
default.jspa?forumID=960
Only the first line is a "blue hyperlink" so the result is that by clicking on the link the don't get anywhere. This happens ALL THE TIME no matter who the recipient is and it only happens with longer links.
The frustration is I have to put a disclaimer explaining that this can happen and to "please copy and past the whole link in your browser, ..."
I received a reply as follows from .mac help:
Quote -I understand that when you include a web address in messages that you send, the link is often broken when it is received by the recipient.
The reason this is happening is because most email clients see a web address as one long word and break the URL into a second line. Because of this, only part of the address appears as a link which may be clicked on. - end Quote
They suggested I call Apple Care, which I did. Apple Care basically explained that this is a glitch and that MAIL will always automatically break long links/words after around 60 or so characters.
So the answer from Apple is there is nothing to be done about it. The guy I spoke with said this was the first he has heard of the problem so I am questioning his (lack of ) answer and seeking a second opinion, YOU!
Am I the only one who is having this problem?
I tried the option of turning a couple words (like "click here") into the hyperlink (open mail, then "new message", "Edit", "Add Hyperlink". etc and the hyperlink looks perfect to me but again, after being received there is no hyperlink, just two black words "click here" that don't take you anywhere.
Any ideas?

It's all non-MAC using recipients, using every type of email viewer.
Your comment "If the receiver is seeing messages in plain text, that's probably the way it works...." Brings up the point that I'm SENDING in plain text (at the suggestion of Apple Care).
I did a couple of tests just now to my friend, a PC user. Sent long links in plain and rich text and guess what? They break in plain text but are intact in rich text. Same goes for the second part of my question regarding turning words like "click here" into a hyperlink. Does not work in plain text but it works just fine in rich text.
Genius Kenichi Watanabe!
I brought up the topic of plain vs rich text with the Apple Care guy when addressing this issue. He knew I was using Plain text, I even asked if that had anything to do with it!?!?! Frustrating!
Still a bit confused about Plain vs Rich. This article helped a bit:

Thanks again! Glad you spent the time to read and answer my question.

Hyperlinks from mail slow to open

Whenever a hyperlink in mail is selected mail goes into a 'Not responding' mode for 45 to 50 seconds before opening. Mail will then continue to work normally until another hyperlink is selected.

I'm not sure how to tell what the size of my largest Mailbox is, but it has about 130 messages.
Unless some cron script or other utility rebuilds mailboxes, never. I just rebuilt them and will keep you up to date.

How to display a jpeg in corner of a frame or change default bg colour?

I am having problems of a different sort regarding display of an image in a frame. I wish to display a jpeg in a frame such that it sits exactly in the top left corner. As it is, it always sits a few pixels left and down from the corner, leaving an annoying white border. The only way to get rid of the border is to create an individual html file for every image so that the bg colour can be set to match the rest of the page - but surely there is a way to either change the default bg colour in the users browser when viewing the site or to sit the image dead in the corner so that there is no need.
It's driving me nuts!

Hi Greystar69 ,
Try the following code. this code helps to understand easily how to bring it.
acknowledge me
import java.awt.* ;
import javax.swing.* ;
public class FrameBg extends Frame {
     private Image img ;
     public FrameBg() {
          super( "Test" ) ;
          img = new ImageIcon( "D:/images/rose.png" ).getImage() ;
          if( img == null ) {
               System.out.println( "Image is null" );
               System.exit( 0 ) ;
          setLayout( new FlowLayout() ) ;
          add( new JButton( "How   is   it?" ) ) ;
          add( new Button( "Is   it    ok?" ) ) ;
          setSize( 400 , 300 ) ;
          setVisible( true ) ;
     public void drawBackground( Graphics g ) {
          int w = getWidth() ;
          int h = getHeight() ;
          int iw = img.getWidth( this ) ;
          int ih = img.getHeight( this ) ;
          for( int i = 0 ; i < w ; i+=iw ) {
               for( int j = 0 ; j < h ; j+= ih ) {
                    g.drawImage( img , i , j , this ) ;
     public void paint( Graphics g ) {
          drawBackground( g ) ;
          super.paint( g ) ;
     public static void main(String[] args) {

Hyperlinks in Mail?

I am a writer and send out links to my Internet articles to a mailing list. I assumed all received links were hyper links. A friend with a Mac was not receiving them as hyperlinks when I was sending them from my old G3 in Outlook Express. I am still sending to that list from my G3. I address them to myself with the mailing list in the bcc field.
Now, I saw one of them on my G5 and the link was not hyperlinked in Mail. Why is this? I do get hyperlinks in Mail from other sources. I find Mail kind of buggy.
For example, I still send from the G3 using OE because the mailing list groups did not import to mail as group lists. The group lists were lost. I did not want to rebuild those lists of over 500 addresses manually.
Can the groups be imported??
Thanks
G5 iMac (iSight) Mac OS X (10.4.6)

edit>link is all that I am aware of, though when I use it, I copy and paste the web address in lieu of typing it in. Hopes this helps some.

Default Background Colour not Black?

I'm having a very irritating problem with the Windows default background colour.
A while ago I had set it to this off-shade of yellow, but now whenever I make a new theme (or even load a saved one) my background colour reverts to this aforementioned yellow instead of whatever I have set it to. Which means my themes can never be saved
and loaded, lest I want to see that awful colour again.
A step-by-step process for those who are having trouble understanding my wording:
make new unsaved theme, bg colour is currently set to yellow. I switch it to black, it works as intended.
Save this theme.
Whenever I load the saved theme, the background colour is yellow, not black, despite all other personalizations saving correctly.
Is there a way to change the default colour so that all themes behave as intended, rather than reverting to my previously selected colour?

Hi,
Can you show us some different screenshots to know more about this issue?

Default Encoding for Mail

Mail on ipod touch seems to show all mails in ISO8859 or so.
The problem is I sometimes have to read mails in Chinese/Japanese encoded in EUC-CN/EUC-JP etc.
Is it possible to change the default encoding for Mail?

same problem with me. Sometime I can read Chinese/Japanese mails. Sometime the mails are unreadable. Why is Mail on mac be able to read all mails but mail on iTouch have encoding problems? I thought iTouch could be a better protable device system than windows CE in terms of international.

Remove underline from hyperlink in Mail.

How can I remove the underline from hyperlinks in Mail?
Thanks in advance!

Thanks Roam.
I actually used to be able to do this, six months ago at least. Now I cannot. It is odd. I see my older signatures and they are without the underline and I do remember being able to remove them. The simple text edit no longer works for links now....
Apple, please fix this!
Thanks again.

Mail on MacBook won't open hyperlinks behind mail.

After updating to Yosemite 10.10.2 I no longer can open hyperlinks behind Mail. I can open them by clicking on them which takes me directly to the web page, however, some emails have multiple links which I wish to open without leaving Mail first. Prior to the OS upgrade this problem would occur with a few emails but now it happens with all emails.

LadyC,
Quit/Force Quit Calendar, then paste this text ~/Library into the Finder>Go>Go to Folder...window and select "Go." This will open the Users Library Folder.
Next open the Calendars and move any any files with "Cache" listed in the name field to your Desktop.
Also open the Preferences Folder in the same Library, and move the com.apple.iCal.plist file to the Desktop.
Log out/in or restart, and open Calendar.

Is there a way to change default background colour?

Hi,
I am frequently embedding U3D files into adobe acrobat and every time I need to manually change the "default" background colour from grey to white in the Show Advanced Options tab of the insert 3D dialog box.
Is there a way to permanently set the default background for all inserted 3D files to white instead of the grey default?
Thanks!

No.

When I select Bookmarks it defaults to Yahoo Mail sign in...why?

I have no bookmarks nor can I save any as long a Bookmark Icon defaults to Yahoo Mail signin

Do you have the Yahoo! toolbar? I think Yahoo! has or had its own bookmark service and perhaps that has taken over Firefox's native bookmark feature somehow. You could check here for the add-on, try the Options dialog, or completely disable/remove it if necessary.
orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Add-ons > Extensions
Any luck?
