Having trouble trying to open links on my recieved mail. The only response I get when I click on the link is, "No associated application could be found".
How can I correct this problem?

What type of file is it? What is the extension (the 3 letters after the . (DOT)) of the file?
Could be it is a Windows Exe file and simply will not run on a Mac. Which is good because anyone that would send you a excute (.EXE) file is up to no good. just my opinion.

TS4002 I'm getting an error message when I try the click on a link in an email. No associated application could be found. How do I fix this problem?

I'm getting an error message when I try the click on a link in an email. No associated application could be found. How do I fix this problem?

Is this a one-off or a general problem? If a one-off, is it a link to a web page or something else? If not a web page, try control-clicking on it and choosing to download the linked file. This will at least access the file though it might be to something you don't have an application to open with. If you do this, what sort of file do you get? - select it and hit command-i to get information on it.

The add annotations field shows as not allowed in the security options. So how do I send this form back with the changes??

I think you you need to click 'save' first, then it is saved to acrobat, where it will prompt to send.

For the last 10 days I have been unable to open the Mail account on my eMac (MacOS10.4.11). When I click on the icon in the Dock the only option I get is "Force quit" and the main Mail bar will not open any choice. Any ideas?

You can setup Mail for iCloud on the eMac.
Do not delete the old account yet. sign up for an iCloud account if you haven't.
I understand .mac mail will still come through. Do not delete the old account yet.
You cannot use .mac or MobileMe as type of Account, you have to choose IMAP when setting up, otherwise Mail is hard coded to change imap.mail.me.com to mail.me.com & smtp.mail.me.com to smtp.me.com, no matter what you try to enter.
iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
On second step where it asks "Description", it has to be a unique name, but you can still use your email address.
IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
• Server name: imap.mail.me.com
• SSL Required: Yes
• Port: 993
• Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
• Password: Your iCloud password
SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
• Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
• SSL Required: Yes
• Port: 587
• SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
• Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
• Password: Your iCloud password

Uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox that prevents new tabs from being opened.
There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
* Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
* Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons

Open Safari. From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the General tab.
Select Safari from the pop up menu next to: Default web browser
If that doesn't help, launch Disk Utility located in HD > Applications > Utilities
Select the startup disk on the left then select the First Aid tab.
Click: Verify Disk Permissions
Restart your Mac when it's finished.
Try Mail.

Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs. 
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware. 
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

I am not seeing the URL preview you get when you hover over a link. Why?

Until today, when I hovered my cursor over a link, a preview of the link's URL would appear on the lower left of my screen, above the Start button (I use Windows Vista). Currently when I hover over a link, no preview appears, so I don't know the web address of where I'm going when I click on the link. I thought that maybe this was due to updating to Firefox 19.0, but my friends who have also updated say that they can still see the URL preview. Did I somehow turn off the URL preview by accident? If so, how can I turn it back on? If not, why is it gone?

Do you see toolbars like the Add-ons bar (Ctrl+/) or the Find bar (Ctrl+F)?
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

Hi There Linc Davis,
Wow, you are the best.
Yip this is what the website looks like. Great job Linc Davis.
Not surprised that the "Shop" tab is missing. Darn.
Well can you try to access it's "sister" website: astralmusic.com and astralmusicshop.com?
Since you are awesome with the "Flash" can you investigate if this website has a issue withis this "Flash" too?
Please Linc Davis

How do I prevent Firefox from automatically placing me in the tab that is created when I click on a link?

For example, sometimes I want to open all the links in a "Google Alerts" email in new tabs BEFORE I look at any of them. By default, I have to keep clicking back to the original email after I click each URL. I want to be able to open multiple links in new tabs without being automatically placed into each tab after every click. I know I can right click and say "open in new tab" but I want to just be able to click on the link.

Are that regular links or are they handled by JavaScript ?
There are three prefs, accessible via the about:config page, to control the focus if you click a link.
*browser.tabs.loadInBackground (normal links; also Via Options > Tabs)
*browser.tabs.loadDivertedInBackground (javascript)
*browser.tabs.loadBookmarksInBackground (bookmarks and searchbar)

There is usually a toolbar button in the editor to turn a text link into a clickable hyperlink (look for a chain like button). 
You can select the text and click that button to turn the link into a clickable hyperlink. 
If you can't find the button then hover them all to check the tooltip of each.

When I try to go to the volume purchasing website in Safari it opens up the regular iTunes store. When I click on the same URL on my PC, it goes to the volume purchasing site. How can I get my iPad2 to go to this website?

The URL I'm trying to go to is https://volume.itunes.apple.com/us/store. I purchased an app and am trying to install it. Because I purchased it in the Education store, I can't install from the main iTunes store.

This is happening to me too. I recently purchased about 4 music videos from iTunes, 3 of them play on both my pc and my iPod Touch but there's one particular music video that will only play on my pc and gives me the same "The requested url cannot be found on this server" message when I try to play it on my iPod. Can someone please rectify?
