How do I get internet links in emails to go to firefox and not safari?

I'd like to start using Firefox but if I click a link from an email I receive in Mail, it starts and uses Safari. How do I set the preference to Firefox on an iMac?

Choose your Firefox as default browser
Try this

    Try ejecting your iphone from iTunes and then close iTunes. Now retry. Hope this helps.

  • In mail, my attachments, both photos and documents appear in the body of the message.  How can I get my attachments to appear as a separate attachment and not as part of the message.  Thanks for your help, Karen.

    Yep! And if you absolutely need (or think you need) that functionality, it is worth every penny.
    As Don already pointed out, exactly what the recipient sees will depend on how they've set up their machine and what unnecessary 3rd party apps they might've installed to display attachments the way they want.
    In theory, that is true. In practice, Attachment Tamer will cause more of your messages to show up as plain-jane icons on the other end. The problem is, after all, people running Outlook 2003 and 2007. These people likely aren't doing many system modifications.
    If I were you, I'd use the free solutions provided above, save my money and let my recipients decide how they will handle their mail.
    I completely agree.

  • How can I get iPhoto to display ONLY file numbers of pictures and not document titles when displayed as thumbnails?

    I am a pro photographer and I've never used iPhoto. I use a combination of Adobe's Bridge, Lightroom & Photoshop programmes.  I've sent a disk of images to a client and they cannot see the file numbers of the images.  Their version of iPhoto only displays the document title that I have embedded in the metadata when importing the images into Bridge.
    When I ran a test and imported the same images into my version of iPhoto(7.1.5, since you ask) some of the thumbnails displayed the file number while others displayed the document title.  Why does this happen?  Can I make it stop?  How do I make iPhoto display just the file number in thumbnail mode and not the document title?
    When I view the images in Bridge, all I see is the file number but I can't convince the client to use the programme even though they have it.  Any help/guidance will be very gratefuly received.
    Many thanks,
    Adam.

    In every version prior to iPhoto 11:
    Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File...
    In iPhoto 11:

  • My phone number is not showing up on my ichat on my laptop, only my email. How do I get my messages to come from my phone number and not my email?

    You could have been storing your Favorites using the Windows Favorites folder (displayed in Internet Explorer using the Favorites menu or button), or you might have been storing your Favorites using the Yahoo! toolbar.
    For IE Favorites, Firefox tries to import them to the Bookmarks menu. This is available on the classic menu bar or if you have the compact two-column menu, from the orange Firefox button or a button on the toolbar. These articles might help in tracking down these imported Favorites:
    * [[How to use bookmarks to save and organize your favorite websites]]
    * [[Import Bookmarks from Internet Explorer]]
    For Yahoo Favorites, you might need to use the Yahoo! toolbar for Firefox to access those. Do you already have that displayed? You can turn on/off the display of toolbars using one of these methods:
    * right-click a blank area of the tab bar (or the new tab "+" button)
    * tap the Alt key > View menu > Toolbars

  • How do I change my mail so that email links open in firefox and not safari

  • How do you get iMessages sent to your e-mail address only and not your phone number?

    I want to send messages using my texts as well as iMessages to my girlfriend, she has a iPhone 3GS (I have iPhone 4) but i can't receive her texts when my internet is off, and only get her iMessages when I have turned my internet on. Is there something both of us have done or one of us?

    Sorry about the confusion. What I actually meant was:
    In Firefox you could use a method supported by the particular site like drag-and-drop from the desktop/folder into the webpage, use a button on the page to open/browse/upload an image/file etc.
    But this error (send error) "1file can't be sent" seems to be related to the email site's service. The email site's support/forum could be helpful. You could also try to inform them about the error if they provide a contact channel.
    You could also check the email site's help pages for information related to attachment size limits, and image type restrictions.

  • My yahoo emails are blank in firefox and not in other browsers. i want to stay with firefox!

    my yahoo emails are blank. i can't forward nor write e-mails. they function well in other browsers (like google) but i prefer using firefox. i've contacted yahoo but they can't figure it out.

    Hello and thks for your answer. Here is a link to show you the problem: http://wp.me/p3CFjO-1Qh
    I imported the picture using mozilla Firefox. That pic doesnn't show on Safari.
    If the same pic I import through Chrome or Safari, there won't be any problem. I wish I could understand what the reason is and what is the solution, as I'd like to keep using Mozilla.
    Thanks for your time and I hope you have an explanation/solution for me.

  • Every time I click a link in an email, it opens in Firefox instead of Safari. I want the links to open in Safari again. How do I make that happen?

    I'm pissed. How dare you assume I want my emails to open with Firefox, and change the settings on my computer without my permission?!!!
    How do I get my email links to open in Safari again?!
    I'm using a Mac 10.6.8 operating system

    No. If you simply click on a hyperlink in pretty much anything, Safari will open since it is the default browser. The only option you have is tap and hold on the link, and then select Add to reading list. It will then be stored int eh reading list in Safari.

    no, the link was created for me via Acteva. 
    And, it is not longer than 69 characters. 
    Have you clicked on the link to ensure that it works?
