How do I set up my computer to announce when I get email?

I use Comcast.net for my email, and it is the number 1 tab in my browsers home pages. I'm on a Windows XP system.

You should be able to do this with the WebMail Notifier add-on available from https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/webmail-notifier
Once installed you will need to add a script for it to add support for Comcast, available from http://webmailnotifier.mozdev.org/scripts
You can set Webmail Notifier to display an alert or play a sound when new mail arrives.

  • How do i set up my iPhone to chime when a new email arrives? right now, the chime only works after I tap the mail icon

    How do I set up my 4S phone to chime when a new email arrives?  Right now, the chime only sounds after I tap the mail icon.  I need an alert to check my mail.  Comcast mail.  Settings for mail set at "fetch new data". Thank you

    Try if this works for you
    1. Tap Settings on Home Screen
    2. Go to Mail, Contacts, Calendars
    3. Tap on Fetch New Data
    4. Turn "Push" to On
    5. Back to Mail, Contacts, Calendars again
    6. Under "Advanced", make sure that it is set to "Push" for all your mail accounts
    Push means the server will literally push the mails to your iPhone whenever there is new mail. Fetch like the word says is where you have to manually update to receive new mail (what you are doing now)

  • On a mac computer, how do i set the default brower to open up links in emails to Safari, and not Mozilla

    On a mac computer, how do i set the default brower to open up links in emails to Safari, and not Mozilla
    == User Agent ==
    Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; GTB6.5; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)

    Thanks for the suggestion.
    A few weeks ago I downloaded some free software from the "tucows.com" website, it appears to have permanently hijacked my web browsers (both firefox and IE) so all searches go to their "searchqu" site, and new tabs open at that site. I was unable to repair this with the addins you suggested or by editing my user preferences files, and ended up having to reinstall firefox. Hopefully I won't run into the tucows rootkit ;)
    But thanks anyway.

  • How do I set up family sharing if all my family members emails are already associated with my iTunes account?

    I want to set up family sharing but it won't let me because all the emails are already associated with the one iTunes account we have.  I am afraid to delete because my children use that email address for text messaging.  How do I set up family sharing if all my family members emails are already associated with my iTunes account?

    Hey Wendaroski,
    I am not quite sure what you mean by "my family members emails are already associated with my iTunes account" but what you need for each family member is an Apple ID. Yours would be the one for your iTunes account.
    If the other members of the family already have an Apple ID you can invite them to join the family group. If not they will need to create one, using their email address. This article shows how -

  • How can I set the page that will open, when I open a new tab, to be the same as the homepage?

    How can I set the page that will open, when I open a new tab, to be the same as the homepage?
    An app changed it to some other search engine, before installing the app, I the tab that would open was the homepage I set.
    In my case it is Google, and I want my new tabs to open on Google like they did before the installation.
    thank you,
    Asaf Privman.

    You can middle-click or Ctrl left-click the Home button on the Navigation toolbar to open the Home page in a new tab.
    You can look at one of these extensions:
    * NewTabURL : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/newtaburl/
    * New Tab Homepage : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage/

  • How do I set the environment to change outputs when I press a button?

    Hi guys!
    This is a question for the Logic pros:
    How do I set up my environment so that when I press a Button on my Midi Controller the Outputs from the Master Channel switch from 1-2 to 3-4 (to hear my music through different loudspeakers)???
    Does somebody know how to do that?
    Thank you in advance!
    Greetings from Germany

    The easiest way is to route your mix to all the outputs you're using. Then set up fader objects in the env that transform toggled cc's from your keyboard switches. Cable those fader objects to the output channel objects. To toggle the Mute on an output channel you'll need to send it a fader message #9, value 0 or 1, on channel 1.
    That would work, as long as you have switches on your keyboard that can transmit toggled cc's.

    I am using yahoo as my isp. how do I set up ipad to be able to use my email???

    Yahoo is not an ISP.
    ISP's are ATT, Comcast, Verizon.
    Yahoo email settings should be in the mail app when you set up an account.
    Go to settings-mail.
    Add account. Select yahoo as account type.
