How can I highlight a web address so that someone can simply click on it to go directly to the designated address?

When composing an email, how can I highlight a web address and convert it into a link such that someone can simply click on it to go to the designated address?

According to the help article ([[Hyperlinks in Messages Not Working]]), Thunderbird should convert the URL to a clickable link while it is sending the message. Can you confirm this by composing a message to yourself and seeing whether it works?

  • How do I save a web page so that someone else can open it?

    Sometimes I want to save web pages as archives for future reference. I thought printing as a PDF would be the most widely readable format, but items on the page are often lost and I end up with question marks.
    I have just tried "Save As" to a web archive, and that works well in Safari (meaning that Safari can reopen it perfectly), but when I emailed the file to a PC user they couldn't open it. I assumed a web archive format would be readable by any web browser; obviously that's not the case.
    How do I archive a web page so that it is universally readable without losing any content?

    A web-link won't work because the particular page I want to send requires a subscription. The story about this particular page I want to send: four of us are planning a 7-day hiking trip through some Tasmanian wilderness, and we don't go unless the weather forecast is fine. I am subscribed to a weather website, but when I send this link:
    http://www.weatherzone.com.au/models/meteogram.jsp?lt=twcid&lc=9350
    they don't get the meteograms (graphs of various weather aspects out to 10 days).
    So, I want to save the particular page and send it off. In general, though, I simply want to archive certain pages.
    In my limited testing it looks like:
    • Safari can't save a web page accurately;
    • Firefox can, but it generates a separate folder of files ( I would have to combine the two, then zip them, then email);
    • iCab may be able to, but I haven't tested it yet.
    I didn't think saving a web page, incorporated into a single file, would be so complicated.

  • I need to set a default e-mail address so that I can send pages on the web, posings such as jobs etc.

    I need help in setting up an internet explorer web page default e-mail address so that I can send copies of job postings, petitions or just an interesting web page?

    Hello lowspark56,
    Please explain a bit about the requirement.
    Based on my knowledge, there is no default e-mail address in Internet Explorer.
    If you want to add the website to favorites, please take a look at the following article.

    - How did you dlete stuff from the iPod? If you have a 1G or 2G iPod and deleted the stuff by going to Settings>Genera.>Reset>Erase aall contents and settings without being connected to a power source, the battery dies before he erase was comleted since it can take hour.
    - In any event try the following:
    - Connect to a chaging sour for three hours.
    - Reset the iPod and then connect to the computer and try to restore va iTunes.
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • How do I setup my Airport Extreme so that I can extend the coverage of my existing AT&T wifi network?

    How do I setup my Airport Extreme so that I can extend the coverage of my existing AT&T wifi network?

    Start by establishing a permanent fixed Ethernet cable connection from one of the available LAN <-> ports on the ATT modem/router to the WAN "O" port on the AirPort Extreme.
    Ethernet cabling can be run up to 300+ feet or 100 meters, so you should be able to locate the AirPort Extreme exactly where it will be needed to provide more wireless signal coverage.
    Configure the AirPort Extreme to "create" a wireless network using exactly the same wireless network name, same wireless security setting, and same wireless network password that the ATT wireless is using.
    The final step is to insure that the AirPort Extreme is configured to operate in Bridge Mode, so it will work correctly with the ATT modem/router.
    If you need more specific steps, we need to know what operating system you are using on your Mac or PC. If you have a Mac and do not know which operating system it is using.....click the Apple icon in the upper left corner of the screen and then click About This Mac, and post back with the OS X version number that you see there.

  • When I try to buy something, I get an Apple-ID which is not the one I want to use, and I don't know how to get rid of it either, so that I can use my ID, which is in Mail, Contacts etc. The ID I get, I can't find, so that I can delete it. What to do?

I have to delete it. How do I solve this problem, anyone?

    My content was obtained through another ID, which popped up earlier. Now this one doesn't pop up, and my current ID doesn't pop up either, but another one. How do you find an ID which is not in the store, and not in Mail, contacts etc. either?
    Or is it possible to write the ID yourself when you want to buy something, not only to have it popped up being unable to be changed?

    Installed Trend Micro Smart Surfing on new MacBook Pro and now it has caused error that won't let computer boot up.  How do I get it to a point that I can delete program?

    Try booting up in Safe mode (holding down the Shift key while booting). If the software came with an unistaller, use it to remove alll traces of the software - it's nothing that you need and, as you've experienced, can do more actual hard than good (as is the case with most software of this type). When you're booted in Safe Mode, if you can't run an uninstaller, at least check to make sure that there are no Trend Micro items that are set for automatic log in, at least.

    How do I set up my iPad so that I can recieve the emails from my Outlook Express account

    Your iPad doesn't receive email from Outlook Express (or any other email client).  It receives email from your email provider.  To set up your email account on your iPad go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...tap Add Account and add your email provider's account settings with your username and password.  iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, AOL and Hotmail email settings are automatically entered by tapping the appropriate button.  Others must be manually entered by tapping Other.  (Exchange accounts will also require you to enter your email provider's settings.)

    Hi,
    The software provided for your device does not include OCR functionality
    You may use any 3rd part OCR solution to scan as editable text.
    If you have Microsoft Office suite there is a good chance the office suite provide this kind of capabilities:
