How do I set-up Automator to open Mail when I start up Mac OS X?

How do I set-up Automator to open Mail when I start up Mac OS X? Provided that this is how I would do it.

You don't need Automator.
Just add Mail to the login items in SystemPreferences>Accounts
or
If Mail is on the Dock, Ctrl-click the icon and select 'Open at Login'

  • How do I set what page will open up when I click new tab?

    I just downloaded something from the internet and ASK is now my default page when I open up a new tab. I managed to set what page I wanted when I open up the browser, but when I am in the browser and I click NEW TAB it goes back to ASK. Any ideas?

    You may need to remove an Ask extension. You can check on the Add-ons page:
    Tools menu > Add-ons
    In the left column, click Extensions, then disable/remove unwanted (or unrecognized) extensions.
    The actual address for the new tab page is a hidden setting. To adjust it:
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the search box that appears above the list, type or paste '''newtab''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Double-click the '''browser.newtab.url''' preference and enter the desired value:
    * ''Page thumbnails (default)'' => about:newtab
    * ''Blank tab'' => about:blank
    * ''Built-in Firefox home page'' => about:home
    * ''Any other page'' => full URL to the page
    Press Command+t to open a new tab and verify that it worked. Fixed?

  • How do I stop a new window opening up when I start a new tab?

    When I open up a new tab, it also opens up a new window with all of my current tabs present. So I have 2-3 windows open, all with the same tabs. Closing a tab you're on will also close the respective window and vice-versa.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> 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.

  • Tabs only open in a new window. Ctl T opens a new window NOT a new tab help-last update this problem started. How do I set FF back to open tabs in 1 window

    Tabs only open in a new window. Ctl T opens a new window NOT a new tab help-last update this problem started 2 days ago. How do I set FF back to open tabs in 1 window?
    There is no plus sign and going into optins and changing settings has not worked. I have uninstall FF and reinstall-keeping my personalization-and that was no help.
    Right clicking on FF Icon to open a new tab, or going up to FF drop down tab and clicking on new tab both do not work.
    Help everything opens a new window not a new tab. there seems to be no way to reset this or to chose a different optin. I just downloaded new tabs at end addon and it didn't do a thing.

    as a first troubleshooting step - does it work like normally when you open & run firefox in [[Safe Mode|safemode]] by pressing the shift key while you open firefox (all other instances have to be closed before)...

  • "I have pages 5.1 but when I try to open a page on my desk top.. a message comes up - You need a newer version of pages to open this document.  How do I set my computer to open a page?"

    "I have Pages 5.1 but when I try to open a page on my desk top.. a message comes up - You need a newer version of pages to open this document.  How do I set my computer to open a page on my desktop?"

    You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Pages 5 can not open Pages 5.1 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Note: Apple has removed over 90 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

    Archive/trash Pages 5, after exporting all Pages 5 files to Pages '09 or Word .docx, and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

  • How can I set a book to open full-page?

    I can't track the information I'm looking for, so I need to ask:
    How can I set a book to open full-page and not with the graphic table-of-contents? I'd like to lead in with a video (when the book is first launched), and have the video hand off to the copyright page, full page, not where the reader has to pick it from the graphical table of contents.
    Many thanks for your help!

    I'm a frequent user of the Reminders app but I want to set a reminder that will automatically open another app.
    Maybe I should make a suggestion to apple to include it in the next iOS update.

  • How do I set my downloads to open in the finder ?

    How do I set my downloads to open?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    If I understand your question correctly, you want to know how to 'open', view, or install something you've successfully downloaded from the internet and saved in the Downloads folder.
    I am unable to determine which operating system you are using on your MacBook. Your profile lists iOS 5, but iOS5 is for an iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad, not MacBook.
    Your MacBook likely has one of the OS X 'cats': 10.4 Tiger, 10.5 Leopard, 10.6 Snow Leopard, or 10.7 Lion. Click on the Apple icon in the top left menubar and select About This Mac to see which operating system you are using.
    If you are using OS X 10.7 "Lion", you should post your question in the OS X 10.7 Lion forum here:
    https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/mac_os_x_v10.7_lion
    These instructions are for a Mac using OS X 10.6 "Snow Leopard" but the process is very similar with OS X 10.5 Leopard.
    Here's one way:
    Open Finder by clicking on the icon in the lower left corner of your Dock.
    Under Places in the left column, click on the 'House' icon in the left column. It probably has your name after it.
    That will open a list of file folders and files in the right column.
    Click on the Downloads folder.
    Clicking on the Name column heading in the right column will sort the file list by that column.
    Clicking on the column heading a second time will sort the file list in reverse order.
    Locate the file you want.
    Single click on the filename and press the space bar to preview many types of files, including documents, spreadsheets, and images.
    To open the file, double-click on the filename.
    If the file has the extension .dmg, it is a disk image file (program to be installed) and will open the file installer dialog. You will likely need to enter your Administrator password to install the program.

    If you select a word file in the Finder and do File>Get Info you will see a section in there where you can specify which application should be used to open files of that type.

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    [[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    ''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
    Thank you.

  • All of a sudden, my settings have been changed, my homepage, and EVERYTHING. No matter how many times I go in and change them again, the SAME pages open up when I start FireFox and I am constantly being asked if I want Yahoo as my start page and default s

    I don't know what happened. All of a sudden, my settings have been changed, my homepage, and EVERYTHING. No matter how many times I go in and change them again, the SAME pages open up when I start FireFox and I am constantly being asked if I want Yahoo as my start page and default search engine. I click the box 'do not ask me again' and it comes up EVERY TIME. I change things like I don't want history remembered, and when I reload FireFox again, it's back to the way it was BEFORE. EVERY SINGLE TIME. I don't know why this is happening, or how to fix it. What do I do??

    I do not want to download another virus program.. I do not believe it is a virus. I am running the full version of Norton 360 and it is doing a daily scan. I have Windows 7, 64 bit OS.
    This is very irritating !! If I wanted Yahoo I would ask for it !

  • How do I set up additional folders in Mail to enable me to move read e-mails yet still retain them

    How do I set up additional folders in Mail (in the left hand panel under inbox/trash/drafts etc ) to enable me to move messages
    that I have read.  I do not wish to leave them clogging up the page but like to have folders for Apple/Amazon etc.
    Any advice wouldbe gratefully received.
    I can find the symbol to move the message but cannot figure out how to make the new folder
    thanks

    You can't create mail folders on the iPad. If you are using an IMAP/Exchange account you can set up folder on another device and they will be reflected on the iPad. If you have an POP3 account there is no way.
