Have set Gmail as application for mailto, but mailto: links don't work.

I'm using FF 22 on a MacBook Pro running OS X 10.7.5. In Preferences>Applications I have set the app for mailto as Gmail. However, mailto links refuse to work. They generally open a blank tab. Gmail is also set as the default mail application for the system. That didn't help.

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.

How do I set gmail as default for mailto links in Firefox 7?

When I go to tools>options>applications>mailto , it does not give gmail (or much else) in the pulldown menu.

Thank you, Swarnava, for the help. I am going to pause and think about this for a little --- I may just have to live with the inconvenience, rather than the security risk of installing an unknown program... but your help is very much appreciate it.
It is indeed strange, because it used to work fine in previous versions of Firefox (or perhaps something external from Firefox changed...)

Packager for iPhone Labs Forum - moved but old links don't work :(

Since Packager for iPhone is an obsulete product now and everybody "should" use AIR 2.6, the Packager for iPhone forum disappered today and all links bring to the page saying: "It appears you're not allowed to view what you requested. You might contact your administrator if you think this is a mistake."
Come on guys, the old links to the specific forum threads should still work, I bookmarked so many links ralated to many problems "to read later" and now they are gone... Would be nice if there was some redirect to the same threads on the new forum if they were moved (I hope they aren't removed). So far we can only used "cached" in Google version...

Yeah, great, thanks Adobe... you've just lost years worth of community comments and resource there!
Who thought that removing that forum could ever be a good idea?!
It could have stayed as a static 'read only' forum with this being the new place to add comments and threads.
Shocking really...
Please Adobe re-instate it. You're normally amazing but this truly sucks and is very surprising.

Firefox does not open Gmail to send link when I click the Send Link option on the menu. I have set Gmail as the mailto option, but did not help

Firefox does not activate Gmail when I click send link in the menu under File or by right click menu on a webpage. I have set Gmail as the Mail to under options, but this did not help.

I have the same problem but it appears that an add-on I'm using is causing the problem. Try opening Firefox in safe mode (which disables add-ons) Then try it. If that solves the problem, you need to disable all your add ons and enable them one by one to figure out which one(s) is causing the problem.

Since upgrading to FF5, "mailto" links no longer work - my "tools/options/applications/mailto" is set to gmail.

Since upgrading to FF5, "mailto" links no longer work - my "tools/options/applications/mailto" is set to gmail.
Previously, when I clicked onto an email link, my gmail would open up.
Now, nothing happens.

Please do the following. 
#Open Microsoft Internet Explorer and then click '''Tools '''and go to '''Internet Options'''. 
#Click the ''Programs ''tab and where you see "Email", choose your email client. 
#Remove the checkmark from where it says "''Tell me if Internet Explorer is not the default browser''" in the same menu. 
#Click Apply/OK and close Internet Explorer. 
#Next, start Firefox and click the orange Firefox button, go to '''Options '''| '''Options '''| '''Advanced'''. 
#In the '''General '''tab, '''System Defaults''' at the bottom, checkmark the option: "'''Always check to see if Firefox is the default browser on startup'''" and then click the "''Check Now''" button. 
#Click OK, close Firefox and then restart it again.
You should now have a mailto: option in the Applications panel.

Not able to open mail from my mac, gmail repeatedly asking for password. but using same password able to open gmail on safari

not able to open mail from my mac, gmail repeatedly asking for password. but using same password able to open gmail on safari

okay well they got me to take out some .plist files to see if that would help it didn't. I'm not sure what ones that they deleted for my self maybe someone here would be abel to tell you what ones to take out but didn't work the one that came close to working was this going into keychain and deleting the account(s) then reading them again.
if you are to do this please back up first with Time Machine. You can do this with a usb drive.
Okay so go back to where you had internet accounts and make sure mail is shut. click the - on the account your having problems with then quit system preferences.
Okay so then press cmd and space bar at the same time then type 'keychain access' into the search then click on 'keychain access'
once it is open go to the top of the window and put your email address that you are having problems with.
once you have put in your full email, have a look at what comes up i deleted things in the kind colome with 'internet password' and anything with under name that had smtp.gmail.com or imap.gmail.com so it would look like this, map.gmail.com - internet password.
right click and delete them. make sure not to touch any other files that dont say them things on them.
Once you have done this quit keychain access and then restart the computer, once the computer is restarted go back to system preferences and internet accounts and re-add the account.
Hope this helps. if something is not clear just ask.

You do. Your system is either Windows or Mac (or maybe a couple of other less popular choices) and a version of one or the other.
When you set up your machine, you were asked for an administrator user name and password. You need both of these to install software.

Sig, I appreciate you trying to be helpful. I have no idea what issues you were having or what issue exactly pgrounds has been having. Your assumption that everyone's set up is the same as yours is false however. There are many many documented WiFi issues that are a result of Lion installs. Many have been solved by 10.7.1 and 10.7.2. Others have been solved by a large variety of work arounds. Others have not had their issues solved yet.
I am one of those. I have an IT background, and I spent the better of five hours digging up workarounds and attempting all of them. For the benefit oh anyone who is having similar issues, I have posted links to all of those workarounds here. None of them worked in my case, but hopefully they will help pgrounds or others.
So, once again, if you have a new idea, I'd love to here it. But if it has already been posted in one of these links, it's not helpful, let it go.

Tina,
I would go crazy if this was me. You may find this interesting from the customer agreement (to see full agreement go here:Customer Agreement | Verizon Wireless):
"HOW AND WHEN CAN I DISPUTE CHARGES?
If you're a Postpay customer, you can dispute your bill within 180 days of receiving it, but unless otherwise provided by law or unless you're disputing charges because your wireless device was lost or stolen, you still have to pay all charges until the dispute is resolved. If you're a Prepaid customer, you can dispute a charge within 180 days of the date the disputed charge was incurred. YOU MAY CALL US TO DISPUTE CHARGES ON YOUR BILL OR ANY SERVICE(S) FOR WHICH YOU WERE BILLED, BUT IF YOU WISH TO PRESERVE YOUR RIGHT TO BRING AN ARBITRATION OR SMALL CLAIMS CASE REGARDING SUCH DISPUTE, YOU MUST WRITE TO US AT THE CUSTOMER SERVICE ADDRESS ON YOUR BILL, OR SEND US A COMPLETED NOTICE OF DISPUTE FORM (AVAILABLE AT VERIZONWIRELESS.COM), WITHIN THE 180–DAY PERIOD MENTIONED ABOVE. IF YOU DO NOT NOTIFY US IN WRITING OF SUCH DISPUTE WITHIN THE 180-DAY PERIOD, YOU WILL HAVE WAIVED YOUR RIGHT TO DISPUTE THE BILL OR SUCH SERVICE(S) AND TO BRING AN ARBITRATION OR SMALL CLAIMS CASE REGARDING ANY SUCH DISPUTE."
This may help you also: Arbitration and Mediation FAQs | Verizon Wireless
You can dispute any charges by doing an Arbitration or Mediation. I have never done it, so I can not help much there but this all may get you started.
Let me know if any of this works! Good Luck! Please keep me updated. I really hope they help you.

My daughter has just bought me an iPad 2 from Dubai and set it all up for me but unfortunately the iMessage function doesn't seem to work. We keep getting messages,when trying to activate it, that there is a network connection problem - help!

Thank you both for your responses but my daughter was reassured by the salesman in the iStyle store (official Apple store in the UAE) that iMessages would work but conceded that FaceTime wouldn't. My iTunes account is registered in the uk and my daughter's iPhone has iMessages even though she bought it (and uses it) in Dubai. Can anyone else throw any light on this?

I have set the presence to screen only but the checkbox still prints adobe livecycle

I have set the presence to screen only but the checkbox still prints. I am using adobe LiveCycle design 9 and it is a dynamic form
This check box is part of an action, where when clicked, it copy's the data from one row and puts it in another. It is also in a row that can be added and removed.
But basically I want the check box to appear on the screen but not print (including when the form is converted to a PDF when its completed)
