Every time I click a link in an email, it opens in Firefox instead of Safari. I want the links to open in Safari again. How do I make that happen?

I'm pissed. How dare you assume I want my emails to open with Firefox, and change the settings on my computer without my permission?!!!
How do I get my email links to open in Safari again?!
I'm using a Mac 10.6.8 operating system

No. If you simply click on a hyperlink in pretty much anything, Safari will open since it is the default browser. The only option you have is tap and hold on the link, and then select Add to reading list. It will then be stored int eh reading list in Safari.

    I have an iphone and have two email accounts linked to it.  I want one of the email accounts to BCC myself but I don't want the other email account to do that.  How do I do that?

    If the picture was in your photo stream you can sign into the iCloud account in Settings>iCloud and turn on photo stream to see/copy it.  If it was only in the iCloud backup you can't restore just the picture; you have to restore the entire backup.  Restoring a backup is all or nothing.

    I bought the Lana Del Ray Paradise Edition Album couple about a week ago, everything was fine and I loved the album, until my iTunes decided refuse to play the song "Diet Mountain Dew". Everysong workd just fine but this one song, every time I click on it, ot play it in anyway on iTunes, it will just skip to the next song. I can play this song anywhere out side of iTunes, but I can't play it on my iTunes. It's really frustrating. HELP!

    Every time I click something on web pages, like a link or a search bar, I get a pop-up. It's usually a semi-related pop-up, like on Apple websites, I get a lot of MacKeeper pop-ups. I let my younger brother use my laptop yesterday, and now this is happening. I think he might have downloaded something, but I don't know what it is called or anything so I don't know how to delete it.
    I have a Macbook pro.
    Thank you!

    Your brother may have downloaded and installed something known as "adware." To see if that's the case, visit thomas_r.'s The Safe Mac website and look at the Adware Removal Guide page. You may also be able to use his Adware Removal Tool to get rid of the junk.

  • ITunes 64-bit runs 32-bit, Secure link to iTunes Store failed, and SyncMapiInterfaceHelper_x64 crashes every time I click 'Info' tab in an iDevice.

    Hello everyone,
    There are 3 issues I have, as it reads in the title.
    1) I am running iTunes on a Win7 64-bit ThinkPad, and iTunes shows up as a 32-bit application in the Task Manager, always. I tried even the complete uninstalling (after removing Bonjour, Apple Mobile Service, deleting the folders, etc.) and yet, it shows up the same way.
    2) When I run diagnostics, it says 'Secure link to iTunes Store failed'. I've tried many things from whatever I've read in the forums and nothing seems to be changing that.
    3) Every time I click the 'Info' tab on any iDevice (I tried it with a 3GS and a iPod Touch), I get a 'SyncMapiInterfaceHelper_x64 has stopped working' message thrice. I don't know the significance of thrice but it just does come.
    I hope someone helps.
    Thanks!

    That one's normal. On 64-bit systems, iTunes is a mix of 32-bit and 64-bit componentry. The itunes.exe is 32-bit.
    Oh, okay. Thanks!
    Could you walk us through what happens when you try to connect to the Store, please?
    The issue is when I run diagnostics. I happened to run it last night while updating my 3GS to iOS 6, and there was a 3194, and a search to solve that, led me to running the diagnostic.
    I was wondering how it affects me because I haven't faced any issue in downloading or browsing the AppStore. The transcript of the 'Run diagnostics', for networks is as below:

  • Every time I click on a link in safari, an ad page pops up

    Hello,
    I have a MacBook Air (13-inch, Mid 2013) and I am using MacOsX Yosemite edition. A few hours ago something's happened to my safari and almost every time I click on a link, an ad opens up in a tab. When I search something from the address bar, it uses a search engine called http://thesmartsearch.net/ in stead ıf gooogle. Although, I set it back to google from preferences, it automatically goes back to this smartsearch engine.  Also, streaming has slowed down, it feels like something is continuously running at the background and my fans are non-stop working right now. I'm scared if I have a virus or something. Could you help me solving this problem? Many thanks,
    Sinem

    There is no need to download anything to solve this problem. You may have installed a variant of the "VSearch" ad-injection malware. Follow Apple Support's instructions to remove it.
    If you have trouble following those instructions, see below.
    Malware is always changing to get around the defenses against it. This procedure works as of now, as far as I know. It may not work in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for a more recent discussion, or start a new one.
    The VSearch malware tries to hide itself by varying the names of the files it installs. To remove it, you must first identify the naming pattern.
    Triple-click the line below on this page to select it, then copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C:
    /Library/LaunchDaemons
    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.
    A folder named "LaunchDaemons" may open. Look inside it for two files with names of the form
              com.something.daemon.plist
    and
               com.something.helper.plist
    Here something is a variable string of characters, which can be different in each case. So far it has always been a string of letters without punctuation, such as "cloud," "dot," "highway," "submarine," or "trusteddownloads." Sometimes it's a meaningless string such as "e8dec5ae7fc75c28" rather than a word. Sometimes the string is "apple," and then you must be especially careful not to delete the wrong files, because many built-in OS X files have similar names.
    If you find these files, leave the LaunchDaemons folder open, and open the following folder in the same way:
    /Library/LaunchAgents
    In this folder, there may be a file named
              com.something.agent.plist
    where the string something is the same as before.
    If you feel confident that you've identified the above files, back up all data, then drag just those three files—nothing else—to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Close the Finder windows and restart the computer.
    Don't delete the "LaunchAgents" or "LaunchDaemons" folder or anything else inside either one.
    The malware is now permanently inactivated, as long as you never reinstall it. You can stop here if you like, or you can remove two remaining components for the sake of completeness.
    Open this folder:
    /Library/Application Support
    If it has a subfolder named just
               something
    where something is the same string you saw before, drag that subfolder to the Trash and close the window.
    Don't delete the "Application Support" folder or anything else inside it.
    Finally, in this folder:
    /System/Library/Frameworks
    there may an item named exactly
                v.framework
    It's actually a folder, though it has a different icon than usual. This item always has the above name; it doesn't vary. Drag it to the Trash and close the window.
    Don't delete the "Frameworks" folder or anything else inside it.
    If you didn't find the files or you're not sure about the identification, post what you found.
    If in doubt, or if you have no backups, change nothing at all.
    The trouble may have started when you downloaded and ran an application called "MPlayerX." That's the name of a legitimate free movie player, but the name is also used fraudulently to distribute VSearch. If there is an item with that name in the Applications folder, delete it, and if you wish, replace it with the genuine article from mplayerx.org.
    This trojan is often found on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content such as movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
    In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere  should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
    Then, still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
              Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
    or
              Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
    if it's not already checked.

  • Can I stop ipad from flipping to Safari every time I click a link in an email? I like to open everything first and then go through my Safari tabs.

    is there anyway I can stop my ipad from flipping to Safari every time I click on a link in an email. I would like to be able to go through all my email and then go to Safari and go through the tabs that have been opened. Currently I click an email, Safari opens, I go back to mail, delete said email, read the next email, repeat.

    No. If you simply click on a hyperlink in pretty much anything, Safari will open since it is the default browser. The only option you have is tap and hold on the link, and then select Add to reading list. It will then be stored int eh reading list in Safari.

  • Since upgrading to 4.0 I've been receiving irritating messages every time I click through via a link embedded in a document or an email. The message says "An error occurred in sending the command to the application". How can I remove it?

    Since upgrading to Firefox 4.0 I've been receiving irritating messages every time I click through via a link embedded in a document or an email. The message says "An error occurred in sending the command to the application". How can I remove it?

    Certainly!
    This is the module in our eMac 1.42:
    1GB PC2700 DDR 333MHz CAS 2.5 184 Pin DIMM
    The vendor, Other World Computing, ships to the UK but I suspect the shipping would make it pricy. I also trust this vendor:
    Apple G4 eMac 1.42GHz (184 Pin PC2700 DDR DIMMs)
    Between the two vendor's description, you should have a good idea of the Specs
    PPC Macs do not like hi-density PC RAM. That's why I linked these two; they send the right stuff to Mac users.
    Crucial UK is usually cited as good but, like their US counterpart, seldom go against Apple's outdated specs. See:
    http://www.crucial.com/uk/store/listparts.aspx?model=eMac%20(1.42GHz)&Cat=RAM
    They show the max RAM for your model as 1GB--yesterday's news. However, if you order their offering for a G5 iMac, you get the larger modules. Here is a listing for a 2GB kit (2 x 1GB modules) of the right config:
    http://www.crucial.com/uk/store/listparts.aspx?model=iMac%20(G5-1.8GHz%2C%2020-i nch)&Cat=RAM

  • Since I updated to latest firefox version, every time I click a link or in a box a google play window opens up

    Since I updated to the latest release of Firefox a few days ago every time I click a link or in a dialog box (like this one) or try to pin something in Pinterest a google play window opens up. I have no new pluggi-ns and no add-ons. I have also scanned my cpu for viruses and none was found. What is causing this issue, which is driving me crazy, and how can it be fixed?

    To eliminate if it is a corrupted add on or plugin, please check if it happens in a new profile with just the pintrist add on. This will tell you if its a combination. [[Use the Profile Manager to create and remove Firefox profiles]]
    Also sometimes one virus scanner will not detect a virus that another one would. Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
    You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:

    No; it means that the computer has adware. Click here and follow the instructions, or if there’s a type of adware not covered by them on the computer, these ones.
