Google mail, click on a link in email and I have to click on "Allow" everytime, why?

I have attempted to fix this by uninstalling/reinstalling Norton, and I called Windows to no avail. They are telling me that it is Firefox/Mozilla that is doing this. It started happening about 3-4 months ago, just about the time that I thought that it was Dell remote support that did something to my laptop when they worked on it. They didn't touch anything in Firefox at all. The Pop-up says that Firefox is blocking and to click "ALLOW" or an "X" to close it out. You can click allow 10 times for the same website, but it still will have "allow" it to open. What is going on with your program? This is insane!!
I have https://mail.google.com open, and I click on the link in the email. It could be Applebee's, or Orchard Supply Hardware, or Sam's Club, It doesn't make a difference who I click on, I still have to click on the "Allow" in order to see the website. I have even put these links into the exception box under pop-up blocker and it still blocks it. I even unchecked the pop-up blocker to allow pop-ups and it still doesn't work. What am I missing here?
Even when I click on your link below, and the box pops up, I click on allow and it says:
The add-on could not be downloaded because of a connection failure on support.mozilla.org
(It is not the DirecTV program, because I just loaded that on today, and this problem has been going on for 3-4 months.)
Please have someone contact me to fix this.
Version: 22.0
Thank you...

I do not have that box checked... so now what?
Thanks

I can no longer click on a link in email and get re-directed

as far as I'm aware I haven't changed any settings - but I used to able to click on any type of link that came over on email and get into the appropriate website. I can no longer do this and I don't know why - can anyone help?

Go to Tools>options>tabs>check the "open new windows in tab"
or ctrl+click on the link ( always worked )

How can I click on a link for email and have my email come up?

When I want to send an email from a website, the link will not connect to my email program. It does from Safari and other people's Firefox. I uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled it. It still doesn't work. HELP!

What email program or email site do you want Firefox to fire up to send the message?
In the Preference dialog, you might be able to select the program from a list. In some cases, you need to take extra steps to add it to the list.
Firefox > Preferences > Applications
In the search box above the list, type '''mailto''' and then pause to let the list filter down. Does the drop-down control on the right side let you choose your preferred email program?

When I open an email, my computer won't go to the link listed, or when I am doing research the same thing, then I see a ALLOW in the upper right hand corner of the screen and I have to click on that. What happened and how do I fix this?

Somehow my settings have changed. When I open an email and there is a link, my computer won't allow it, also when I am doing a search, my computer won't allow certain links to open.
What I see is "ALLOW" in the upper right hand corner of the screen, and I have to click on that in order to continue my email or do a search. How did this suddenly happen and how do I change it back to being able to roam the Internet without having to click on ALLOW all the time?
Also, I set up Google as my home page, but it won't list Email or any other options. I have to type in Google in the Google box, then Email appears. How do I get the right Google set up as my home page so I can access Email without jumping through hoops.
Thanking you so much for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,

Try closing the App Store app completely and see if it works properly when you re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with App Store 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the App Store app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Links in emails unable to open when clicked

Hi, I'm having a rather difficult time opening links in emails. I have tried all but this route so far to get to the bottom of this issue. I figure it must be a security issue and noticed it happening since all websites I visit are now
"https" and since that began months ago slowly I'm unable to now open links within emails. I have tried to delete the "s" on some sites only for there to be more conflicts and most won't open for me. This site is unavailable
to me >> http://www.aweber.com/z/c/?8948cc11-7005-4322-952c-4177647842c2 It was to open link for accepting subscription to a newsletter. Others are links to forums or other 3rd party sites that are recommended reading. I'm not
that computer savvy so could use some help here. Please and thank you for your time and consideration in this matter as I'm not the only one that is experiencing this issue. I have friends on f/b with the same issues.

My iMac locks up constantly in email. I click on one or two emails. Then when I click on another email, I get the spinning wheel and have to relaunch. Why does it get confused and lock up?

My iMac locks up constantly in email. I click on one or two emails. Then when I click on another email, I get the spinning wheel and have to relaunch. Why does it get confused and lock up? Seems like it is stuck.

10.6.8 here, MacBook Pro. Comcast. Mail freeze ups. Occasional warnings to use "Log Out" under the Apple icon.
Disk Repair run several times. Shows lots of Java "remote" issues.

Restart don't know if it helps, I do it all the time. What's with quitting Mail but it doesn't quit, and why a separate maneuver to "Log Out".

When I tried to open my Mail app this morning, it opened a list of choices - iCloud, E Exchange, Google, Yahoo, Aol, Outlook. I use Hotmail and it usually opens to my Inbox. Why did it do this and do I choose Outlook and is it safe to sign in

When I tried to open my Mail app on my IPhone this morning, it opened a list of choices - iCloud, E Exchange, Google, Yahoo, Aol, Outlook. I use Hotmail and it usually opens to my Inbox. Why did it do this and do I choose Outlook and is it safe to sign in?

It sounds like instead of opening your Mail App, you actually opened your Settings App, and were somehow in the 'Add Account' section of Mail, Contacts & Calendars.
Close the apps, and then reopen just the Mail App.

I had the same problem after I gave my old iPad to my parents and tried to install Netflix. This is what you have to do: Open iTunes on your computer, the one you sync your iPad to. Then go to iTunes Store and search for and download Netflix app. After you download it, if your iPad is set to download new purchases it may start downloading on your iPad. If so, tap and hold to delete the app (because it is trying to install the new version on the iPad) Next step, go to the App Store on your iPad and find Netflix and it should say install since you already purchased it on the computer. Tap to install, and it will say the version is not compatible, tap to download a previous version. Click that and it will install the older version! One more thing, if and when you sync to your computer again it will say something like " Unable to install Netflix on your iPad" Just click the box to never remind you again, because it's trying to sync the newer Netflix app to your iPad, but it doesn't work so it displays the message. The old app will remain on the ipad. Hope this helps, good luck

I am soooooooooooo confused now. Ok, if you are having problems with Yahoo Mail and Gmail but you do not use Apple's Mail you need to do the following:
1 - Post in Yahoo's Mail forums and/or contact their tech support.
2 - Post in Gmails forums and/or contact their tech support.
Neither of the above are Apple's products.

My computer is running slow after Yosemite install -but in the Mail program, when I open an email and then open the attachment -all is good -when I close the attachment the Mail program goes away, and I have to reopen it in my Dock -every time.

I tried this, but no luck. I went to Previous System>Users. There is nothing inside the "Users" folder, so I hit a dead end.
I can find my new e-mails -- those that came in since I re-installed the system -- in my NEW system (which I did to see if I was correctly understanding the advice), by going to Users>Home>Library>Mail>POP account name>Inbox.
Let me add a new question: I am running PhotoShop C3. It opens OK, and I can use it, but when it opens I get this message: "One or more files for Adobe Application Support folder are missing. Please re-run the PhotoShop installer."
I don't like re-installing working programs if I can avoid it, because it always seems to lead to other issues. Any idea what files are missing, and where it/they might be in the Previous System folder?
thanks
Mike

Try the Firefox SafeMode. <br />
''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
# You can open the Firefox 4/5/6/7 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
# Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
You should be able to uninstall that AOL toolbar extension while running in the Firefox SafeMode.

How do I add an attachment to an email and not have it show up in the body of the email?

How do I add an attachment to an email and not have it show up in the body of the email?

You can right click or command-click on the image in the email and select "view as icon".
You can change the default behavior of Mail.app so that it always shows the attachment as the icon:
open a Terminal window (Applications > Utilities > Terminal)
at the prompt, type in this (it must be exact, or copy and paste it in if you have trouble typing things precisely):
defaults write com.apple.mail DisableInlineAttachmentViewing -bool yes
Then hit return.
To revert to the previous default (where the attachment is visible in-line), you just enter the same command with "no" instead of "yes" at the end.
In either case, however, how the viewer of the email sees the attachment (either as an icon or in-line) depends on how their email client is set up, not on how you send it.

You will need to contact Apple support. You can use the link in the quote below from If you forgot the answers to your Apple ID security questions - Apple Support
If you couldn't send a reset email, don't have a rescue email address, or can't access email at your rescue email address, contact Apple Support.
