Email links won't work

Hi all,
I am not sure this is even a macbook issue or not. Maybe you can help.
If I send a link in email from mail using my sympatico email account the link is active for the person at the other end (meaning they can click on it) however, if I send a link from the same sympatico account online ( not using the mail program) the link is inactive. The person has to copy and paste it in order to access the site. Is this a macbook issue? I am using firefox as my browser.
Thanks

I don't have a sympatico account so I can't test it but I suspect it's a sympatico issue (since it's web based) rather than Mail on your macbook. Check your settings in sympatico and see if you can find anything related to sending links. Perhaps it's a security setting blocking embedded links in out goiing email.

External links won't work once published

Hi, I'm self taught so don't always understand everything and I'm a complete novice with iWeb, used Front Page before getting a Mac.
I'm in the process of building a new website using iWeb and I'm having problems with getting links to external pages to work. They work fine in iWeb. 'Enable as a hyperlink' and 'make hyperlinks active' is ticked for all links. I've formatted the links to be coloured red, then orange when visited and blue with an underline on roll over, grey if disabled. All works fine in iWeb but then when I publish the links won't work. They will momentarily and then they won't. If I refresh the page then one or two will work but when you go back to the page they won't work again. I've deleted them all and redone them, still the same problem. Tried it in Safari and Firefox, same problem. Deleted the site from the server and republished, same problem. Anyone got any ideas?
On the page in question I have a widget to SkyScanner, thought that was maybe causing a conflict. Deleted it and republished, same problem.
Here's a link to the page I'm having problems with http://www.marbella-rentals.co.uk/MarbellaRentals/flights.html and it's the links to airlines on the right that I can't get to work.
Also I have another couple of questions. How do you resample images? I have used a background image on the pages and I've managed to get it to stay static by altering the code slightly but don't know how to resample it so that the page will load quickly. Ditto with all the rest of my images. Don't want to have to resize them all manually if possible. Also, with the background image I don't know what size I should make it if I was to do it manually.
Last question... How do you change the title of your page and add a favicon?
If anyone can help me would be much appreciated.
Thanks

You have an image covering some of the hyperlinks - GraphPaper_01_3.png
Do a Command A on the iWeb page to find it.
Your background image seems to load OK. Use an optimizer to to get it and the whole site to download faster...

To add title tag and meta description you need to open each HTML file post publishing and add them with an editor app. More conveniently, you can use iWeb SEO Tool...

Outlook Email script won't work with Reader 9.1

The attached form was designed in ES 8.2 and has worked fine with Reader 8.0. The "properties defaults" tab is set for Reader 9.0 or better. However, upon recent upgrade to Reader 9.1, the Outlook Email script stopped working. I'm new to Livecycle and scripts and was hoping that someone had an easy fix?

okay thanks. One more question. What script is used to activate the "read receipt requested" function in Outlook?

Interesting .....it sounds like an issue in Reader. From a code perspective everything is good .....the code tells Reader's email service to communicate with the mail client. This could be where the issue is.
You may want to post your question on the Acrobat forum and see if they know of anything .....or you can report the issue to Support and have them look into it. Maybe something was introduced into the 9.1 version.
From a Designer perspective all is good.

Hi David,
It is a problem with the website. We are working on a solution.
Best is to go to http://spele.nl for the time being.

Links won't work...in certain circumstances.

Okay...here's the situation:
A couple days ago, all was well. ALL links were working just fine. Following a minor update, all links died.
I set the site up to navigate by clicking pictures rather than using the nav menu. All links to site pages were set up as internal links, any links to outside the site were set up as external links.
I've rigged a partial fix to this: I put clear shapes over the pictures and linked them...these work. Any links that I haven't done this with no longer work.
None of the hyperlinks on text work, nor do the ones I haven't covered with a clear shape. I've gone through, unlinked everything, relinked it and tried again, the text links and non-covered pics still don't work.
To top it all off, the photo albums created BY IWEB aren't working either! (these will be ericthelutheran.info/sclcy/bb2011 & ch2011 in the link I provide). When you try to click on the navigation buttons between pages or on the pictures to get to a larger view, they don't work at all. Again, the albums were created by iWeb itself.
I don't know what to do short of starting over, but I hate to do that after all this work (though it's not finished yet). Help!
Current versions of iWeb & Lion, tried multiple browsers w/ same result.
Site: http://ericthelutheran.info/SCLCY/sclcy.html
Thanks for the help, I'm so confused!

EDIT: Links won't work due to ID-10-T error. I laid a clear box over everything with line edge to "frame" the page...nothing like a nice sheet of glass to prevent it from being messed with!

Email button or menu Email Link does not work. Firefox 29.0 on Linux Mint 13

Neither the Email Link menu option under File nor the Email Button installed from the customise menu option when placed on the tool bar work.
Thunderbird 24.5.0 is the email client both installed on Linux Mint 13 with latest updates.
Nothing happens at all when on a web page and the email link is clicked or the envelope icon is clicked.
Help appreciated.
Regards
Cavemann

Hello
The Preferred applications menu list showed Thunderbird as the email program but it did not link the email button to firefox.
I had to eventually go to the Firefox preferences and in Applications, Thunderbird was not listed. So I selected Other and browsed to the filesystem / Usr/Bin and selected the Thunderbird icon which then put Thunderbird in the Firefox Applications options for email.
The email link / button then worked.
Now I have to sort out the link for emailing photos from Picasa as this does not work either
Thanks for help

Creative Suite CS5 download link won't work

Creative Suite CS5 download link won't work after eight attempts, trying to transfer software to new laptop. Final Solution: new software cds mailed if possible?

Hi Sheena,
After dowloading the CS5 Design Premium, I get an error messagin stating "A problem occurred while extracting the archive. Please try downloading the Adobe CS5 Design Premium again." I repeated this process multiple times (8) to no avail. I am trying to download the CS5 design premium on my new laptop, but don't have the software cds to do this. Thus, I can only download the software but after i download the two files required, that error message appears. (I already have my serial number). I have tried disabling my Antivirus as sometimes it detects the files as virus and removes them while downloading. I have also tried downloading after performing Selective Startup.
Can Adobe mail the software cds instead of sending download links?

Neither email image nor email link are working.

Make sure that you have set a default e-mail program (application)

MSN Hotmail/email links won't open when clicked on

email links go dead

Win7 / FireFox 3.6.13 / Win Live Mail 2011
Tried setting IE8 to default internet app & surprise, surprise - Hyperlinks within Windows Live mail now open fine!
Set FF back to default app & hyperlinks DONT work again.
Tried setting .url association to poinr specifically to FF - still no go.
Hyperlinks do work fine when running Hotmail via the net instead.
Waiting for a reply I guess as I'm still 'finding my way' around Win7
Can Mozilla please build their own OS :-)

Email links won't load

email (OE) links won't load
often firefox won't start and I have to go to processes in task manager and close firefox
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== 1-2 wks--don't know of any new thing; several AV programs all okay

Ummm, because it only seems logical that one would
want to check for new mail upon opening the app ????
Sure, there may be times when you only want to 'view'
previous emails, but why not at the same time check
for new ones ??
You can't assume that's "logical" for everyone. I don't think this is just a personal preference issue. I believe by not giving users the option to automatically check email OR NOT when the app is opened is a big mistake.
There ARE good and valid reasons why one would want to open the mail app on their iPhone without having it automatically check mail (and I have 4 POP accounts set up in my iPhone), whether that personally doesn't matter to you or not, or whether to you it seems "logical" or not.
I understand that some people may just not care, but for myself and other iPhone owners I've talked to personally (and none of us have our desktop mail apps set to automatically download email when the app is opened, so why should the iPhone be any different?), the lack of having that as an option is a glaring (and frustrating) ommission on Apple's part, and again, I'll be very surprised if it isn't eventually added.
On a related subject, I also believe there should be a "check all accounts now" button on the main mail account page. When I'm on my mail accounts view in iPhone, it would be great to have that button instead of having to go to each account separately or back to the home screen to hit the mail app button again to check all accounts at once. Again, this is how I can set up my desktop mail app (Eudora), and I believe Apple will eventually add this option as well.

Blog Post Links Won't Work

Greetings!
My blog post links at http://HealthyDayFitness.com/ won't work and I can't figure out how to remedy the problem.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers!

Thanks for the reply!
I'm publishing to a folder and using FileZilla to upload the site. I simply click and drag all the files within my site folder onto the site. I did not click and drag the folder, because then it gives me the address http://HealthyDayFitness.com/HealthyDayFitness/Welcome.html. Looks messy in my opinion.
I'm a little confused on what you mean by blank spaces on the page name... This is the blog page that works: http://healthydayfitness.com/Blog/Blog.html
If you click on "First Post," that's when things go haywire, but I don't see any blank spaces in that broken URL.
Any other thoughts? If not, I'll give the folder upload a try.

Email links won't open outlook on my iMac

I'm developing a Wordpress site on a live server and started to test the email links and I discovered none of them open my Outlook 2011. I'm on a iMac using OSX 10.6.8 and Firefox 9.0.1
Will people visiting the site have the same issue?
If so is there a universal solution so my client won't lose business due to this issue?

Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).

Email links won't open in Safari - keeps resetting to Mail

OS X Mavericks
Safari 7.0
Mail 7.0
My email links in Safari were opening in Chrome. I opened Mail, went to Mail > Preferences > General and changed 'Default email reader' to Safari. Then my email links opened in Mail! Went back to Mail > Preferences and it was reset back to Mail. Safari will not stick. I changed it to Firefox, that stuck. I set it back to Google Chrome, that stuck. But when I set it to Safari, it sticks only as long until I click on an email link in any browser, then it resets back to Mail.

Do you have Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat Pro installed? If so, that is the problem.
You need to quit Safari, start the applicable program(s) you have, go to Preferences > Internet and uncheck the box where it says "Display PDF in browser using:". Then go to Users/username/Library/Internet Plug-Ins and remove the Adobe PDF plugin. Restart Safari and try view a PDF in the browser.

Rogue Link Won't Work

I have used a script that I found here in the forum to create a "back" link. I used it on over 20 video pages. It works on every page but one. I have created an entirely new page. I did a "save as" wtih a similar page with a working link, reworked the content, saved it under the url that I needed, uploaded it and it still doesn't work.
You can test this by going to http://www.hstool.com/rolling.html. Select the video link in the bottom right corner which will open the video page. The "back" link will not work. Go to the same site /splitframeodmount.html, activate the link and the back link on that will work fine. Same script used on both.
Working with Dreamweaver CC, html 5

The others aren't opening in a new window, there's no target="_blank" in the Video link.
When you open a page in a new blank window or tab, there is no history for the javascript to read in that window/tab so it does nothing when clicked.
