HT1637 Help! I need to change my default email "Mail" but I am unable to open "Mail" to do it

Hi, I need to change my default browser but not sure how because I am unable to get into my default browser being "Mail". The Mail icon is a piece of paper, pencil, and a ruler instead of that stamp. I believe I moved it out of Applications at one point and then back in.
Please help as I need to send emails through my Quickbooks which automatically uses my default email being "Mail".
Thanks!

Restart your Mac occasionally. Personally, I shutdown my macs every night.
It goes without saying, leave your apps in the Applications folder.
Max out your RAM, it's cheap these days. Recommend OWC: http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/apple/memory/ and/or Crucial: http://www.crucial.com/store/drammemory.aspx
Make sure hard drive has at least 15% free space available.
Upgrade your hard drive to a 7200 rpm model or a solid state drive: http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/hard-drives/2.5-Notebook/
Avoid software's like MacKeeper, and other softwares that claim to clean your Mac.
Use the "Activity Monitor" App in your Application's Utilities folder to monitor your Mac's performance:

I need to change the default email address that gets sent from Firefox.

When sending emails from an important web app (Highrise) for my business, it defaults to my home email, when my default in Outlook is clearly my work email. I believe this is the fault of Firefox, since every app (Highrise and Outlook) has my default as [email protected], but when sending an email it goes to [email protected] Any ideas?

Could you be more specific about the steps you are taking to change the Adobe ID? I was able to change one of my accounts to a .ca email address without issue. Also, information on Browser version and OS may be helpful. I am assuming that you are doing this in a Browser and not the FormsCentral AIR application, is this correct?

I received an email from comcast that ai need to change my send email settings but don't know how

I need to change the outbound port to 465. 25 will no longer be supported

hello, this question is not related to firefox (in case you're using the comcast's web-interface to access your mails this shouldn't affect you) - please refer to the documentation of your mail client how to change these account settings.

Adobe Reader for iOS doesn't set the default email address when you email a PDF.
It's found in the Settings app:
Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Mail > Default Account

What setting do I need to change to have a search result file (pdf. or whatever) open instead of automatically download?

Firefox downloads files automatically when opening a opening a search result. What setting do I need to change to have the search result file (pdf. or whatever) open instead? Something changed yesterday and I lost the ability to open the files vs. download.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== July 7, 2010

Hello,
Normally, when I use my online account, when i select a document to open with excel or with adobe, the applicaiton installed on the PC, is used to open the files.
Can you check the under control panel, default programs, and see what program is associated to the PDF files?
When you try to open one of those pdf files from your back, what happens?
If you download them to the HDD, are they automatically associated to ADOBE?
Thanks,
I work for HP! Please remember to provide and if this helped click ON

HT204150 How do I change my default email on the "Me" contact from a Facebook email to my normal email address in the same contact? Or at least change it for the autofill information?

How do I change my default email on the "Me" contact from a Facebook email to my normal email address in the same contact? Or at least change it for the autofill information?
Perfernece for contact to change. Do I just have to dis-associate my contact fromt the facebook account? Is only the autofill changable?

If you allow Facebook to access your contacts and you have the @facebook.com email alias turned on, it will add the @facebook.com email to your contact info, and because it has the fixed label of "email" it overrides every other email address.
They didn't fix this in iOS 8.
There are two ways to remove the @facebook.com email from your contact info:
If you don't need your Facebook friends and their info updating your contacts, go into iOS Settings -> Facebook and turn off access to Contacts.
If you don't use your @facebook.com email address (all it does it forward to the primary email address) you can go into the Facebook app, More -> Settings -> General -> Email -> and uncheck "Use your Facebook email". Removing it from Account Emails does not work, you have to turn it off. Once you do this, go to iOS Settings -> Facebook and turn Contacts off and on again to make it update your info. The @facebook.com address should be removed.

I want to change my id email address, but I need to change it to the address that is my repair address and it will not let me do it. How can I make the change?

I need to change my id email address. The address I need to use is also my repair address and it will not let me make the change. Can someone help me. I cannot find a phone number to call that will help me with this problem.

There isn't a phone number for iTunes Support.
If you mean that the address is your rescue email address then follow the steps half-way down this page for changing it http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312 :
Navigate to appleid.apple.com using your web browser.
Click "Manage your account"
When prompted, sign in using your Apple ID and password.
Click Password & Security
You'll be asked to answer 2 of your 3 security questions before you can make any modifications. If you are unable to remember your answers, you can choose to send an email to your rescue email to reset your security questions.
After you've validated your identity by correctly answering your security questions, click Edit to the right of your rescue email address.
Once you've finished editing your rescue email address, click the Save button directly below the email field.
You can then try using it as your primary email address on your account (you may need to log out and back in after removing it as your rescue email address).

HT5312 I need to change my rescue email because its been compromised. Also I need to change my questions

I need to change my rescue email because its been compromised. Also I need to change my questions

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
-If you established a rescue email address, there will be a link on the "Passwords & Security" page of id.apple.com. Clicking the link will send the reset to your rescue email address (NOTE: This is not the same address as your Apple ID email)
-If there is no link on the page, then you didn't establish a rescue email address. Contact AppleCare at 800.694.7466 (If you are in the US), and ask for account security. You will need to answer some questions to verify your identity, AND you will need access to a computer to generate a temporary support pin.

I need to change my apple email but the only other email I have is my back up one and it won't let me use that

I need to change my apple email as it's my work one and that is finishing. But the only other email I have which I want to use is apparently my back up one and it won't let me use that. Any help greatly appreciated. Jez

Hi Jez224,
This article will tell you how to change the email address associated with your Apple ID -
Change your Apple ID
The following section is particularly important -
You can change your Apple ID to any address, except an address used by another Apple ID. You can change the address of any Apple ID, except an Apple ID that ends with @icloud.com, @me.com, or @mac.com.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

The answers to this post seem to refer to an iphone.
My question is regarding setting up an icloud account and password an my new MacBookPro. Everytime I click iClouds in Settings I am asked for the password for <[email protected]>.....an email I did not setup.
Please help.
An iCloud account is an iCloud account. It is not computer or iPad or iPhone specific.
Go here -> https://iforgot.apple.com
Also, you can keep that account and simply set up an alias for email.
