Default mail app

My system keeps thinking that the default mail application is Gmail (I have google notifier installed) when I have my preferences set to Mail.app. Mail.app's preferences say that it's Mail.app and Google Notifier says that the default mail composer is Mail.app. Can someone help me resolve this problem?

Sorry, but I don't use GMail. Since you use GMail to receive mail then it is the default "reader." GMail simply uses Mail for composing email. OS X Mail is already set up as the default mail program for both reading and composing email if you have it set as the default.

I am unable to Send E-mail via Default mail app in my iphone. IOS7, i have account of icloud, Gmail, Microsoft all the account are well added, i can recieve e-mails but the massage i send is never sent

Turns out this was a simple set up error for me, although i'd set up mobile me to sync my e mails I had never set up my outgoing message server. Therefore, if I received a message from me.com I could reply no problem, however if the message came from aol.com I couldn't reply.

How to log into gmail with default Mail app

So my gmail has a 2 step verification option to have it more secure, but the default mail app on my iphone 5S does not give me the option to give a second verification so I can't log in.
They continuously say my password is incorrect because of this...
Any way to fix this please?
Ludwig Dory

After more googline I actually found the solution, I'll post it here in case anyone else has the same problem I had:
You have to go to the double verification setup in browser https://accounts.google.com/b/0/SmsAuthSettings and generate an app specific password, this is the only way it'll work.

Changing Safari's default mail app...

Anybody know how to change Safari's default mail app??
I don't use Apple Mail, I prefer Entourage and I would love to have it as the default mail app in Safari. When I hit command + I or command + Shift + I , I want Entourage to open, not Mail. Is there any way to do this?
Methods that don't involve going under the bonnet (hood for you Americans) would be preferred.
...but if I must go under the bonnet/hood then I wouldn't mind setting the google bar to go to Google.co.uk not .com
Any suggestions?
Cheers,
Gaberdine

Thanks Ferd II, that's fixed it. And it was painless
It never ocurred to me that I might set my default mail app from within Mail... because I never open it except for when Safari opened it by default (grrr).
I thought I might have to use a hack or Terminal (that's what I meant by going under the bonnet (hood)really) but it turns out to be so simple if you only know how - and that's the absolute joy of these forums.
I suspect changing the default localisation for the Google search bar in Safari would be more complex however...
Cheers,
Gaberdine
Edit: For anybody anybody else who sets Entourage as their default mail app; be aware that it doesn't permit mailing a whole webpage from Safari (Command + I) only the link to the page (Command + Shift + I). Try it and you'll get an alert recommending you use Apple Mail. lol

This is probably not the answer to all your questions, but I am sure it answers some.
Unlike Word and InDesign, FrameMaker's anchored frames, which hold graphics, "hang" from their insertion points, typically at the end of the paragraph. An anchored frame that follows a paragraph is set to be below the line, the line being the last line in the paragraph. If you turn on View > Text Symbols, you will see a marker that indicates the point from which the anchored frame is hanging.
If the anchored frame is taller than the available space, it is moved to the next page ALONG with that last line. If the paragraph style/tag has a widow/orphan lines number that is more than 1, then that number of lines are also moved to the next page, because the paragraph tag says to keep that many together, EVEN if there is space at the bottom of the previous page.
So, you can set the widow/orphan lines number smaller OR as you have done put a blank line before the anchored frame, which now holds the marker for the anchored frame, and set its font size to 2 pt (the lowest FrameMaker allows) and its line height to zero. This is the standard workaround UNLESS you use the line above the anchored frame as the title/caption of a figure, which is also a typical way of dealing with FrameMaker's ways.
To my knowledge, one cannot change the default of the checked cropped box. Maybe others know of some way to change this.
There is no page break in FrameMaker, hence there is no symbol for it. In the paragraph designer for the paragraph, you set to Start of the paragraph to Top of page. Top of page is FrameMaker's equivalent to a page break. To "remove" a page break, set the Start of the paragraph to Anywhere.
Since you are new to FrameMaker, I suggest reading throught the User Manual that comes with FrameMaker. You will likely find the answers to most of your questions there.
Hope this helps,

Default Mail app not working with yahoo mail. Won't update.

Default Maill app not working with Yahoo Mail.
It stopped working the other day. I tried everything but it wouldn't update new mail. The yahoo account itself is fine because I can see new mail on Yahoo or a yahoo app.
I tried deleting the account and putting it back on, but now it has 0 mail in any part of it. Nothing has synced.
What do I do?
iPad 2 latest OS.

A lot of people have been unable to access Yahoo e-mail on their iPhones or iPads. My wife’s iPad was not downloading Yahoo mail, although her iPhone was. Both used IOS 8.2. We tried deleting the account several times and troubleshooting all of the other settings. The problem appears to have been that allowing the IOS to automatically create the account on the iPad resulted in the wrong settings for the incoming server. The following procedure, pieced together from two websites, fixed the problem for us. So far, so good.
https://portal.smartertools.com/kb/a2659/configure-imap-for-iphone-or-ipad.aspx
https://help.yahoo.com/kb/mobile-mail/imap-server-settings-sln4075.html
On the iPhone, tap Settings.
Tap Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Tap your Yahoo account, then delete it.
Tap Add Account.
Tap Other.
Tap Add Mail Account.
Complete the Name, Address (email address), Password and Description fields.
Click Next.
Ensure IMAP is selected.
Enter the following incoming mail server information:
Incoming Mail (IMAP) Server - Requires SSL
Server: imap.mail.yahoo.com
Port: 993
Requires SSL: Yes
Hostname is mail.yahoo.com.
Username is your full email address
Password is the same password used to access webmail.
Enter the following outgoing mail server information:
Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server - Requires SSL
Server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Port: 465 or 587
Requires SSL: Yes
Requires authentication: Yes
Username is your full email address
Password is the same password used to access webmail. It may have been entered for you.
Tap Next.
The iPhone will establish an SSL connection to your IMAP and SMTP servers.
That’s all!

Default mail app and gmail issues

Hi, I recently got fed up with Google denying us the possibility to switch off the dreaded conversation view. So - I switched to using the default Sony email app connected to my gmail account. Two issues:
When I delete a mail after reading it will often (not always) reappear in the inbox later. Gmail has two options for what will happen when deleting messages, both produce the same error. Didn't happen with the gmail app.
Scrolling when reading a mail is horribly slow.
Anyone have any tips?

The Gmail app is a direct link to Gmail so deleting from the Gmail app will delete said email however from the default email app that is simply put a forwarding address so the email will not be deleted - It may be deleted or made exempt from future sync'ing but you often find that if the email hasn't fully loaded then it will be seen as unread and will reappear
For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled. Richard P. Feynman

Invoking default mail app. from forms

Hi,
We want to invoke default mail application by the click of a
form's button. We also want to pass on a default textarea of the
form into the body of that e-mail.
Any help in this regard will be appreciated.
TIA

I haven't tried it yet, but can you use the web.show_document
built-in to invoke a WEB link of the form
'mailto:name@location'? If not then to generate a static HTML
page on the server containing the mail link and all the
appropriate text to pre-load and then use show_document to
invoke this. The WEB browser would need to be configured to
launch the appropriate mail client.

This is not necessarily a solution, but something to experiment
with. Let me know if it works!

AS3 not working. Need to implement code to lauch viewer's default mail app. Please Help!

Hello,
I'm struggling to work out why; when you click on the "Contact" link/movie clip on my home page, it No Longer launches my Entourage default mail application. The action script is below. I've tried implementing loads of different mailto: as3 codes into my existing code, however none of them seem to be working with my existing code. I'm not an expert coder and could really use some idiot proof instructions/code here, what the code is, where to place it in the existing code and what other buttons/movie clip/instance name I'll need to create? Can anyone help me, Please?
Thank You,

Hi Ned,
Thanks for the prompt response and help. This is the mailto code I'm trying to implement into my existing code with no luck:
var linkToEmailAddress:URLRequest = new URLRequest("mailto:[email protected]");
email_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, emailAddress);
function emailAddress(event:MouseEvent):void
    navigateToURL(linkToEmailAddress);
I've changed the "email_btn" to "contact_mc" and tried a bunch of other things too.
Your advice made sense to me so I'll go over it again with a fine comb and see if I can work it out.
Any other tips on how and where to paste the mailto code above would be much appreciated.
If the ball is in my court now, I will keep at it, and hope to get it right.
Thank You,
Kavi

Need help with setting a default mail app

My computer is defaulting to gmail even though I have set Mail as the default application in both my gmail notifier and within Mail itself. I tried installing DefaultApps to force things, but it also shows Mail as the default. But when I go to click on an email address on a webpage it still opens gmail.
Anyone have any suggestions?

Sam,
Since I have never made any setting to use Gmail vs Mail, tell me where that selection was made? Have you installed anything that makes that selection available in Mail Preferences/General/Default Mail Reader?
You might try quitting Firefox and then open Home/Library/Preferences and locate the file named org.mozilla.firefox.plist and drag it to the Desktop. Then restart Firefox and test again.

HT4623 Default mail app crashes. I can't open mail attachments. How do I restore the mail app?

I updated my ipad3 to iOS 7 last month. First thing I noticed is I can't continuously open yahoo mail attachments in the form of PDFs like I used to do. Just recently I installed iOS 7.0.6 in the hope that it will resolve this issue. I also deleted the "attachments.me" app thinking this may solve the problem. But my problem worsened as I discovered that I cannot also open ".doc" or word files. I have tried restoring my ipad last night but an error occurred during installation.
I can open the .doc or PDF mail attachments from safari though.
Any suggestions.

You need to download the Google Notifier and set it as the default email client. To restore the application, try running the applicable combo updater; if that doesn't work, you'll absolutely need the disks or a backup to get it back.

Can't setup hotmail to work with the default mail app

just got a G2 to replace an old droid phone and I cannot get Hotmail to work. It complains about invalid login information, even though the user name and pswd are correct. has anyone gotten this to work? I don't want to use the Hotmail app as I have multiple email accounts that work just fine and want a single app to read them all. never had any problems with this on several prior phones.

yes, that fixed it. thanks.
please note that this change is made to outlook.com via web site, and not as part of adding the account to the phone.

Default to "view as icon" in Mail.app messages (with attachments)

Hello,
Other than using Mail Attachments Iconizer (http://lokiware.info/Mail-Attachments-Iconizer), does anyone know of a way to default mail.app to "view as icon" when adding attachments to messages?
Working in print design, we're always sending PDFs and images and it's a little annoying when you have a large (in dimension, not bit size) attachment and it just takes over your message.
Thanks,
Kristin.

Hello!
Your English is great.
There is no default setting for this in Mail but check Mail Attachments Iconizer.

How can I make "mail" my default email app?

When I click on an email address from Cobook or on a web page viewed in Safari, the chrome app opens to a gmail account that I rarely use. How can I make my regular Mail app the default?
Thanks.

Open Mail -> Preferences. Under the General tab there should be an option to select the default Mail app.

Default iPhone mail or third party mail apps

which one do you guys think consumes more battery? iPhone default mail app (push)... or third party mail apps that is constantly receiving mail whenever available?

to print on a printer one require an interface this interface can be a driver or if the device follow
an interface like airprint
since ipad don't have 3th party drivers there are
the 2 options of
1 getting a printer which support airprint
2 a 3th party app from the printer maker
the airport express can never help you unless you expcet the user to be able to install printer drivers from canon on the airport express itself
the fact that conon dont have an printing app which works with your printer is canons fault not much apple can do about that
take it up with canon
my wifi printer from samsung works fine with printing from the free app samsung released to the app store
