HT1637 Setting the "Actual" default Email and Browser?

I know how to set my default Mail reader (Can we say shameless self-promotion and poorly engineered location Apple? Seriously? In your own "canned" application? I love your products but some of your choices are "head scratchers" or seem like MS'isms {shudder}) but how do you get the Applications like Safari or perhaps the printing service to recognize that when you select the "Mail PDF" you want it to open your Default Mail application which isn't Apple Mail?

I know how to find the settings but they do not work system wide. Whats the point of setting defaults if it doesn't always work?
My browser default is Firefox, yet some links in Mail launch Safari.
My email default is Thunderbird, yet there is no option for it in iPhoto.
etc. etc.
I am looking for help from someone who knows how to write or find scripts that will help fix these inconsistencies.

  • HT4897 I created an alias precisely because I wanted to make it the new default name and then quickly realized it wasn't possible. How long after deleting the alias will it become available again so that I can create a new account with it?

    I'm trying to make iCloud mail my primary email but I'm concerned that I may have lost the perfect email address forever.

    I have the same problem. After our wedding I've created an alias ([email protected]) to my actual AppleID Account ([email protected]). Now I'd the idea to delete the alias and my actual AppleID to create a new AppleID with ([email protected]).
    Is there really no possibilty to do this?
    Thanks in advance for quick and positive feedback.

  • Setting the account your email is sent from

    I have followed the instructions for Setting the account your email is sent from, but it is not working.
    Email is not being sent from the account I have at the top of my list of accounts in my mail preferences.
    How do I fix this problem?
    IMAC G3   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    Copied from Mail Help:
    If you have set up multiple accounts in Mail, when you create a new message, the account the message is sent from is the one associated with the currently selected mailbox. If the current mailbox is listed in the On My Mac section of the mailbox list and is not associated with any particular account, then your message is sent from the first account listed in the Accounts pane of Mail Preferences.
    When you reply to a message, the From address is selected in the following order:
    The To and Cc fields are compared to email addresses you have set up in Mail Preferences. Mail uses the first address it finds as the reply address.
    If the message is in an account mailbox, Mail uses the email address for the account the mailbox belongs to.
    If all else fails, Mail uses the email address for the first account listed in the Accounts pane of Mail Preferences.
    Tiger Mail includes a default account selection for "send new mail from" regardless which mailbox is currently selected when selecting New to compose a new message.

  • Anyone has email notification problem w/ the droid & default email app?

    Just want to see if anyone/everyone out there has the same problem getting email notificaiton using default email app for gmail or any other email with all the setting enabled.   (I am not talking about gmail email app)

    I just paid my Verizon bill on line but the only problem this time is that for some reason, I never received an email notification of my bill.  I just happened to stumble on my bill on line while I was reading about other information.
    I always received the email notification before and I never delete emails like that.
    What's going on?
    Interesting......I did receive a notification on 11/11 for my bill due 12/2. I have not received a notification for my bill due 1/1 and I received the 1/1 paper bill today. Just checked my Account Profile and found that the Bill Notifications box was not checked and I think that is the setting that controls the bill notification email (and/or SMS). I have been getting notifications each month for quite a while, so I am guessing some Verizon maintenance update caused the check to be removed. I have activated Bill Notification again so now I guess I just have to wait and see if I get one next month.
    I suggest you check your account profile to see if the Bill Notifications setting has somehow been turned off.
    Edit: I See you edited your post while I was writing mine.  I do not use paper-free billing so that is one difference.

  • Email and Browser

    It have noticed by watching some of the competitors software that the email and browser currently written by RIM is getting very antiquated.
    There are other browsers out for competitors products that have greatly surpassed the capabilities of the Blackberry Internet browser. 
    Also I have noticed a bunch of truncated messages in email that the competitors are able to download complete.
    This is not to flame Blackberry, but more to find out what blackberry is planning to continue to be a leader in this industry and in what time frame we can expect this.
    Apple is now pursuing the enterprise level security that has held them back from being a business class device. If this happens then RIM will have some major competition on their hands. That combined with their web browser will make them a leading device and open up avenues for them to take over in the business arena.
    I personally will never move to an Apple product just because I've been there done that and wasn't very pleased. That was years ago with Apple computers. Also, as long as Apple uses a built in battery I will consider then an inferior product. But with the other innovations in their operating system, web browser and other abilities they are quickly becoming a major threat that has put RIM in the position of catch up.
    This is a much talked about issue in other enthusiast's forum's and something that RIM needs to address, so I would like to find out what RIM has in mind as I consider my next device which is due for replacement now.

    Was reading this article before. I think RIM is aware of other competing browser's features, so they're taking steps to get the BlackBerry Browser up to date

    You can continue to use the current AppleID for iTunes, but your husband can create a new AppleID to use to create a new iCloud account that will be his own and not overlap with yours.  If you do not have another email address to use for an AppleID, just get a free Gmail account and use that.
    You can have as many AppleIDs as you want (or at least, as many as you have email addresses for).  You can use a separate AppleID for the store, another for iCloud, and even another for iMessage if you wish.
    You will want to keep the current one as the shared one for the store as all your previous purchases are permanently tied to it, and thus you need that AppleID to update or redownload your current purchased content.

  • CS6 Camera Raw - I can now only crop using aspect ratio in the custom crop setting rather than being able to set the dims in cm and inches? anyone know how to revert? ever since installing new mac operating system things have been strange!

    CS6 Camera Raw - I can now only crop using aspect ratio in the custom crop setting rather than being able to set the dims in cm and inches? anyone know how to revert? ever since installing new mac operating system things have been strange!

    Hi Kglad.
    I have looked at all of my settings both in Bridge and CS6 Photoshop regarding Camera Raw. I am at a loss how to set the crop tool in cm or inches as I once did - now the only option is to crop using ratios of 1:1 etc etc - This is infuriating as lots of my square crops I could set at 10" x 10'' specifically to print one to one to fit frame and mount size -
    Now if cropping using bloody aspect ratio of 1:1 (square) the actual dims of the crop are roughly 4.25 inches x 4.25 inches. this means I then have to open the whole image in photoshop in order to crop at the dims I have set! It was so much quicker in terms of batch cropping in camera raw being able to set dims in centimetres and inches but they have gone and mucked around with it, with the new bloody update! Unless you are an absolute genius and know how I can go back to having an option of CM, Inches and aspect ratio within the custom crop settings? (Please say you do)
    here is the new tutorial for CC -  my guess is they have scrapped the control we had over the custom crop settings

  • Hi there! So I am using Lightroom 3 on a pc and I have ran into an issue when exporting images. The DPI and image size (in inches) that I am selecting during the export process. For example I just exported a collection and set the dpi to 180 and the size

    Hi there! So I am using Lightroom 3 on a pc and I have ran into an issue when exporting images. The DPI and image size (in inches) that I am selecting during the export process. For example I just exported a collection and set the dpi to 180 and the size to 7 inches on the long edge. My exported result is 457 dpi and sized at 3200x2134 pixels.. Any ideas on why this is happening and what I can do to correct it?

    The DPI setting in a digital image has no meaning at all. You need to learn how to calculate what you need in your exported image. The only measurement in a digital image that has any meaning is the number of pixels in each direction. It doesn't matter what you set that DPI to (actually it's PPI or pixels per inch). The image will have the same number of pixels regardless of the setting. If you need an image that is 5 x 7" (for example) at 200 PPI then you would want an image that measured:
    5 x 200 = 1000 pixels
    7 x 200 = 1400 pixels
    So you would need an image that is 1000 x 1400 pixels to have a 5 x 7" image at 200 PPI. The reason your exported image had such a high PPI setting is because you specified the number of inches you wanted the image to be. And there were enough pixels in the image that it calculated out to be that high PPI setting.
    I apologize, I don't explain this very well. But you need to learn to do the math to determine how large you really want your exported images to be.

    You need the Apple ID and password that was originally used to set up the device. Ask the seller to give it to you. If the seller is unable or unwilling to provide the information, the Phone is probably stolen. There is nothing you can do.

    Many thanks for the diagnostics.
    Failed while scanning for CD / DVD drives, error 2380.
    Error while opening iTunes CD driver.  This could be caused by a corrupted iTunes file or a conflict with other older CD burning applications, either currently installed or previously installed and uninstalled incorrectly.
    With that one, I'd start with solution 3 from the following document:

  • How to find the system default scripts and prompts in UCCX 8.0

    Hello everyone,
    I have a bit of experience in UCCX 6.0 and just began to use UCCX 8.0. There's a question that where can I find the system default scripts and prompts in 8.0? In 6.0, I can find them in installing directory, but 8.0 is linux based so I can not do that in same way.
    Thanks.

    You can Login to CLI with either root access or remote user access and get default scripts by going to
    CD /opt/cisco/uccx/Scripts/system/default
    At this point you have to connect to ftp server and move these default script to yoru FTP server.
    I hope this helps
