Hotkey for Link button in new message in Mail

I've been trying to figure out how to add a keyboard shortcut/hotkey in Mail for the Link button in a new message. The Sys prefs Keyboard shortcuts doesn't seem to do it. Any pointers?

Dan - it's already cmd-K. If you want to change it, as Barney says, you can add the menu item into the Keyboard Shortcuts panel in Sys Prefs. Barney: there's actually a "Link" button in the customizable toolbar which performs this function.
HOWEVER! You do have to specify the menu as "Add Link..." (with ellipsis), since that's how it appears in the menu. Three dots worked for me, but you may need to use option plus semi-colon.
The ellipsis, by the way, means that the command will give you a dialog box of some kind (thus continuing the process). Other (non-ellipsis) commands will do something straight away.

    Sorry again, I am new on any kind of forum, so i am learning now, following is the error massage generated by SQL Server. and its not
    an architecture problem, i had just included my complete architecture to be more informative while asking for the solution or suggestion. My real problem is T-SQL, i think and its related to Distributed queries raise in SQL Server in Oracle Link Server.

  • HT204032 Do the mail and calendar apps need to be launched when the mac goes to sleep for them to receive new messages in power nap?

  • If your Send / button icons are missing in new messages in Mail, do this

    I was mystified as to why the button icons (for Send, Attach, etc) were suddenly missing from my "new message" email windows. The text descriptions were still there, so i could use the functions, but they were in tiny text, more difficult to click on. Trying to drag the icons back on from the view/customize toolbar menus (as was suggested in prior discussions i found here here) did not work.
    Then i noticed a drop-down menu called "Show" in the bottom left of the View> Customize Toolbar window (opened directly from a New Message window). It toggles whether you see Text Only, Icons and Text, or Icons Only. Mine was somehow set to Text Only. Just toggling it to Text and Icons brought my buttons back.
    I don't know how that preference got changed- i didn't do it, and no one else has access to my Mac- and it looks from Discussions like this has happened to others, and only while in New Message (a glitch?).
    This is the simple but not immediately apparent fix.

    Thanks Bernd:  I am using Adobe Acrobat 10 Pro.  I did get a response from Dave Marchant which directed me how to find the layers icon and I found the options icon as suggested in Adobe Help.  However, the options do not allow me to choose an option of either merging layers or flattening layers.  I am a novice at this and am trying to get this 1-page pdf graphic to convert to a Word document.  Is it possible that I already have a single layer pdf and that Word is doing something weird during the conversion?  I tried to convert the document yesterday and I ended up with two pages in Word.  One page had the text boxes and one had the river channels on which the text boxes had been inserted.  This is not a document I created.  We have been struggling for 5 years at various times to get this one page document into Word so that it can be used in multiple reports.  Even the graphics departments at a couple of companies have not been able to get this document resized from the original 11 x 17 format into 8.5 x 11.  I managed to get that done yesterday.  But now can't get a useable version into Word.  Suggestions?

  • Hotkeys for ALV Buttons?

    Hi experts (from SAP),
    I read the documentation about HOTKEYS (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/47/b951297a6d2d65e10000000a42189c/frameset.htm) and I'm wondering why the HOTKEYS are not supported for ALVs respectively for Buttons which trigger ALV-Functions.
    In my mind i thought, that the implementing class of a button should be the same (which obviously is not), not dependig in which UI Element it is used?
    So my question is, is there a work-around for enabling Hot-Keys for ALV-Buttons and/or is SAP going to support HOTKEYS for ALVs in a later on release?
    Best regards.

  • When adding a PDF file to a New Message in Mail it does not show up as an icon link, the entire document appears. How can you attach a PDF without the entire document displaying itself?

    After scanning a document, I save the file in a PDF format. When attaching the PDF file to a New message it appears on the entire page instead of a PDF icon link that the recipient can click on to open. Why can't I get the PDF file to appear in a icon format? Thank you.

    Control mouse click the document and select View as icon.

  • I cannot expand (maximize) new windows for forwards and writing new messages

    I am using the most recent version of Thunderbird on W7 laptop. When i attempt to forward an email it shows up as being there on the task bar (when you hover the mouse over the TB icon it shows all the new windows), I cannot maximize these new windows. It does the same thing when I try to create a new message. I can see the thumbnail on the task bar but I cannot expand it. It lets me close it, but that's it. I can read emails fine unless I double-click them. It opens the message in a new window but I cannot expand it.
    Any ideas?

    Do you have the option to activate/ have focus on the window which the mouse is hovering over? I'm thinking that if you have this option selected then the main TB window may stay in focus because that is where the mouse pointer is pointing?
    If you click on 'Write' and you see the Write icon in bottom Task Bar, this sounds like the window has opened but it is either:
    Not got focus, so it is hidden behind the main thunderbird interface or another opened window.
    or it has opened in minimised state, so is not behind other opened windows.
    '''First test: '''
    Click on Write to open a new Write message.
    Minimise Thunderbird, so it shows as icon on bottom Task Bar.
    Can you see the open Write window?
    If yes, then the Write message window is not getting focus.
    If no
    click on the Write icon in the Task Bar does it then open?
    If yes, then the Write window is opening in a minimised state.
    When you right click on the Write window icon in the bottom task bar, please list all options available - not the greyed out ones.
    What results did you get?
    Second Test: Restart Thunderbird in Safe mode.
    Help > Restart with Addons disabled
    Now test:
    click on Write - did Write window open in the front in focus.
    If yes then it is likely that an addon is causing a conflict.
    You would need to test by gradually enabling addons/extensions until you find the one which is causing the problem.
    So, restart thunderbird, then go to Tools > Addons disable all the addons and then enable one at a time to see when the error occurs. This will tell you which Addon is causing the problem.
    Maybe the addon needs updating.
    Please report back on results.
    In both thunderbird Safe mode and normal mode, does Ctrl+N open a new Write window in focus ?

  • New Message Crashes Mail

    Yesterday, Mail started crashing whenever I try to create a new message. I can open mail, read messages, place them in saved folders etc. I just can't create a new message. No matter how I do it... either clicking the new message button or typing command-N. All I get is the beach ball of death! I've rebooted, updated to 10.4.7, repaired permissions, cleared caches etc etc etc. Nothing seemed to help. Right now I have to use the web mail from my host just to send emails. Very inconvenient! Can anyone offer some assistance with this issue?
    Dual 1 Ghz   Mac OS X (10.2.x)   1.5GB RAM

    First of all, it seems that Mail doesn't really crash (i.e. it doesn't quit unexpectedly). Rather, it freezes (i.e. becomes unresponsive), and it could be that even that isn't actually the case. Have you tried letting Mail alone for a few minutes to see whether it becomes responsive again on its own?
    Before creating a new message, open Window > Activity Viewer. Now, check whether Mail displays any activity there when it freezes.
    What type of account is this (POP, IMAP, .Mac)? It seems from your posts that it's POP. Could you please clarify this?
    Do you have any third-party Mail plugins? Do you have either a /Library/Mail/Bundles or a ~/Library/Mail/Bundles folder in the Finder?
    Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Accounts > Login Items. What do you see there?
    And why does your profile say Mac OS X 10.2.x again now?
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user's home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the file path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the file path there.

  • New messages in Mail too small to read

    In the last couple of weeks new messages are too small to read. Changing orientation and zooming makes them readable. Anybody know what happened?

    It seems the option was removed from iOS 4.0 onwards. Helpful! You can now use the enlarge text option under Settings > General > Accessibility, though this will increase text size across a number of the (built in/Apple only) apps not just mail.
    As the problem has only just started happening I would be tempted to assume it's a glitch. Have a go at:
    1) Ending all apps completely with a double tap if the home button, followed by closing all of the running apps, particularly mail!
    2) Then give the phone a true turn off, press and hold the power button until you get the red power off option.
    3) Turn it on, if the issue persists, try turning your mail account off on the iPhone (Settings > Mail, Contacts and Calendars) > Highlight your Account > Slide the Mail option to 'Off'. This will temporarily make your email in available on the device.
    4) Run the mail app again. It should prompt you for a new mail account. Ignore and return to the previous step / menu.
    5) Slide mail back to 'On'.
    Let me know if that makes any difference.

  • New message in Mail; old message from a year ago being opened

    Okay, so here's a weird one. It is the second time it has happened in a week.
    I go to open a new message, however when I open it an old message from a year ago opens up in its place. It isn't even a year to date issue. For instance today (October 15) I opened a message dated today, and it pulled up an old message from a completely different sender dated May 16, 2006. It is not doing it with all of my new messages that came in today just the most recent one or two.
    Any ideas/help?
    tx!

    What type of mail account is this (POP, IMAP, .Mac)? If IMAP or .Mac, try rebuilding the mailbox, i.e. select the mailbox in Mail and do Mailbox > Rebuild.

  • Can't add attachments in new messages in Mail 2.1.3

    I am trying to help someone with a problem they are having with Mail.
    No matter what method they use it will not allow attachments to be added to new messages. This is on an Aluminium Intel iMac running OS 10.4.11 and Mail 2.1.3
    We have tried the following (not necessarily in this order):
    - reset the PRAM
    - removed the mail plist file and reconfigured mail
    - safe boot
    - Permission repair
    It can send and receive without problem. It has one other problem where it can no longer open saved drafts. If you double click on them they do nothing, double click again and it opens a new message window missing many of the defaults like the ability to choose from which account it is to be sent. We tried rebuilding the Draft mailbox but that did not help.
    We configured the account on a laptop and all worked fine.
    The next course of action will be to use Mac Help Mate to clean caches etc. and then re-instal the 10.4.11 Combo Update.
    Has anyone experienced something like this? If so what was the fix? Any ideas or suggestions would be most appreciated.

    Restart your mac:
    Safe Boot: Hold down the shift key after the chime until the Apple logo appears and the gear is moving.
    It will take awhile but you will be asked to login.
    Go to your Applications folder> Utilities and launch Disk Utility.
    In the left side column, highlight your drive and repair permissions.( button down below)
    Empty the trash.
    Restart your mac.

  • When composing a new message in mail on OS X 10.9.2, is there a way to change the "sending" account on a per-message basis?

    I just got a new MacBook Pro and when composing a new message, I can no longer choose which e-mail account I want to use for the new message.  It also does not show which account I'm using in the e-mail composition panel.  Is there a way to fix this?

    Click on the pull down window next to From: and you should be able to select the individual account you want to send from.  The account that you want to send from must be an Enabled account in the Account Preferences of Mail.

  • Can't create new messages in Mail

    When I click on New Message or Reply I don't get a new window or a new draft message. Nothing seems to happen. But if I quit Mail and then re-launch, I get all the new mail windows appearing, and they are all there in my drafts mailbox, and they can be edited and sent as normal.
    Any ideas how to fix this?
    Thanks.

    Are you saying it doesn't happen for all new messages?
    Try making a new user account, log on as the new user, set up Mail there and see does the problem exist.

  • Can't receive new messages using "Mail"

    My MacBook Pro's "Mail" stopped receiving new messages!? It appears to be continuously trying to receive messages but nothing comes through. Messages sent to my ".me" account appears on my ipad and ipod but not in my "Mail" Software on my MacBook! All my settings appear to be correct (although i'm no expert). I've tried using "Connection Doctor" and the "Mobile Me" account has a message in the "Details" that says: "Logging into account..." but it never connects! Conversely, the "smtp.me.com..." accounts has a message saying: "Connection and login to server succeeded".
    In addition, I should mention that I can send messages (i.e. they get sent) but the "blue bar" in the "MAIL ACTIVITY" window always stops halfway and never moves again. The message sent also never appears in the "SENT" folder even though i have specified that it should in "Preferences".
    Finally... I cannot quit "Mail" without using "Force Quit".
    What is wrong? How can I fix it?

    Thanks Ernie for attempting to help... the port is set on "993"; the "use SSL" is checked. The "Authentication" is set to "Password". However, I did not know I needed a "password"!? I never used one before when i checked mail!? Anyway, if I need a password to check my mail, how come "mail" does not ask me for one?
    You may want to know that "IMAP Path Prefix" is empty and "Use IDLE command if the server supports it" is checked. I have no idea what theses things mean but that's the way it is. Should anything be changed?

  • New messages in Mail vanish

    I have Mountain Lion and the latest SpamSieve version. I'm having a problem where I see a new message come in via Apple's Notification center, but then the message disappears from my inbox. Nowhere to be found in any of my folders. The odd thing is looking through SpamSieve's log, there is a record of the message. This has happened on more than one occasion in the last day. Here is a part of the log for a message I saw come in, but then it isn't in Mail:
