I keep getting an error when clicking a link in email if firefox is not already open

If firefox in not open when I click a link in an email I get an error message. If firefox is already open it opens a new tab and works okay. After getting the error message it still opens firefox and goes to the link.

The actual error was "There was a problem sending the command to the program". This was the message inside the error box. The error box also shows a message "https://support.mozilla.com/questions/887286#answer-2...". I cant read anymore and can't copy any of the links or message.

  • Why do I get an error when clicking on topics in email?

    I subscribe to the forum posts that I create and by doing so I get an email when the thread has been updated. The email contains a link to the message thread but when I click I got an Apple.com webpage saying "An error has occurred". Does anyone else have this problem? How do you fix it?

    That's the truth. I get the same error when I log in
    (and it's on my Mac computers!!).
    Thanks for sharing! I was beginning to feel paranoid and think it was a Windows XP thing...

  • TS3989 I keep getting this error when I click on the link inviting me to join a Photo Stream: "An error occurred while joining the Photo Stream. Please try again later. "

    I keep getting this error when I click on the link inviting me to join a Photo Stream: "An error occurred while joining the Photo Stream. Please try again later."
    I was the one who set up the Photo Stream and sent the link to myself. I called Apple and they said I did everything right and the server must be temporarily down, but it has been the same for the better part of a day.

    None of the fixes above worked for me.  Continued getting the "try again" error message. 
    Tryed a bunch of things, such as going directly to icloud on Safari to open the mail message, no luck.
    Tryed the following;
    Went to iCloud and logged in via Safari, clicked on my account name in top right corner, selected "Advanced" on drop down menu, and selected "Reset Photo Stream".
    Turned off Photo Stream on all devices and iPhoto.
    Turned on Shared Photo Stream option on Mac iCloud preferences.
    Tried the "Join This Photo Stream" button in my Mac Mail app .me account again.
    Still got the error message.
    Forwarded the original mail message to a yahoo account, selected "Join this Photo Stream" in the yahoo account mail (still in my Mac Mail app), and lo and behold, iPhoto opened and displayed the photos. 
    Could be this would have worked right from the start.
    Oh yea, still get the "try again" message if I click on the Photo Stream button in my .me account.

  • I keep getting and error when I try to start my iTunes. "Apple Application Support was not found. Apple Application Support is required to run iTunes. Please uninstall iTunes, Then install iTunes again. Error 2(Windows error 2)"....

    I keep getting and error when I try to start my iTunes. "Apple Application Support was not found. Apple Application Support is required to run iTunes. Please uninstall iTunes, Then install iTunes again. Error 2(Windows error 2)".... I have uninstalled and reinstalled several times and the error still occurs!!! This started happening after I installed the 10.3 update

    I took the time to research it and come across a couple of people who experienced the same trouble and so I listed some of there steps(with Credits) and  some people said that they worked.
    Here is the original Link:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2151777?start=0&tstart=0
    OK, this worked for me:( Original Post by r0tt3n4pp13)
    1. Save iTunes install file to your desktop.
    2. Disconnect from internet.
    3. Disable Firewall/Security software.
    4. Run install. Note that it installs Application Support and a bunch of other software this time.
    5. Run iTunes.
    6. Enable Firewall/Security software.
    7. Reconnect to internet.
    8. Download Watchmen Director's Cut post haste.
    OR!
    (Original post by Cr4z33)
    1. Download and install WinRAR.
    2. Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe icon and choose "Open with WinRAR".
    3. Once the EXE is opened in WinRAR, double-click AppleApplicationSupport.msi and when the installer window is open choose "Repair".
    4. Done! You can now run iTunes normally.

    Do the update using iTunes on your computer.
    Plug your iPhone into iTunes (current version), let it sync, then click "Check for Updates" on the iPhone's summary page in iTunes.

  • I keep getting this error when I publish the SWF file.

    I keep getting this error when I publish my SWF file.
    Fonts should be embedded for any text that may be edited at runtime, other than text with the "Use Device Fonts" setting. Use the Text > Font Embedding command to embed fonts.
    ReferenceError: Error #1065: Variable TLFTextField is not defined.
    And these compiled errors

    This is the only action script 3.0 script that I wrote.
    import flash.events.MouseEvent;
        skipbtn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, btnClick);
    function btnClick (event:MouseEvent):void{
        skipbtn.gotoAndPlay("home");

    the first line is a warning, not an error.
    and you have more actionscript than you think.  open the movie explorer panel and toggle the actionscript only button to find all the actionsript in your fla.

    I keep getting an error when signing in, it wants me to start a trial, but i have purchased the product already?

    If you purchased a serial number, then click on "License this Product". You will be asked to sign in with your Adobe ID/password and you will be asked for a serial number, or you might click on "I have a serial number".  Once you enter the serial number, it should be properly activated as a permanent license.

    YAY!!! Saved it in my Mac's Firefox Bookmarks for easy future access!
    Hope you are having a lovely afternoon today! I'm about ready to go bobo....I have an early meeting, and I don't want to oversleep! The nice part is that I work remotely, so I only have to wake up 15 minutes or so before the meeting.... I don't even use an alarm clock anymore (really, my iPhone alarm, which is much more pleasant), unless I have to get up at 6:30 or something....

  • HT204406 hi!!!! I keep getting an "error" when trying to activate my iTunes match. I get to the 1st step, then it gets stopped, and I get the error message. HELP!!!!!!

    hi!!!! I keep getting an "error" when trying to activate my iTunes match. I get to the 1st step, then it gets stopped, and I get the error message. HELP!!!!!!

    That's definitely enough to start.
    It sure seems like it should work...and then I saw that you're using a router. It could very well be that the router is the weak link here.
    Instead connecting to your network router, try using a direct USB connection from your MBP. If that doesn't work, you read this post, which may be relevant to your problem:

    It seems you're up to date with software. Post with your results.

  • TS3274 I keep getting an error when trying to download a tv series right on my iPad from the iTunes store. I am able to download on my laptop then synchronize but it's a hassle specially if my laptop is not with me. All other Apps seem to be working fine.

    I keep getting an error when trying to download a tv series right on my iPad from the iTunes store. I am able to download on my laptop then synchronize but it's a hassle specially if my laptop is not with me. All other Apps seem to be working fine. Help!

    If anyone is reading this still looking for what caused the issue and how to fix it here is what I discovered.
    The antivirus program our company uses, Bitdefender Antivirus Plus, was causing some of the PDF files not to open. After troubleshooting the different modules and settings the culprit was..
    Scan SSL in Privacy Control Settings. Turning it OFF solved the problem and all the PDF files that previously would not open now open just fine. This issue has been sent to Bitdefender for them to review. If you use a different antivirus program and are having this issue try locating the Scan SSL setting and see if turning it off solves the problem.

    I keep getting this error when trying to backup time capsule with time machine. The backup disk image “/Volumes/Data-1/Dan’s iMac.sparsebundle” is already in use.

    Make sure that no other Macs are backing up at the time.
    Pull the power cable from the back of the Time Capsule
    Count to ten
    Plug the power cable back into the back of the Tme Capsule
    Wait a few minutes, then try a backup again.

  • Keep getting this error when ever I try to use the CC_2014

    keep getting this error when ever I try to use the CC_2014 InDesign
    Unable to launch Adobe InDesign as you do not have sufficient permissions to access the preferences folders. Ensure that you have appropriate permissions and then restart Adobe InDesign.
    Also have Ai quit out on me in the CC_2014.
    This is very frustration since I use these the most

    For MAC try to give permissions to Adobe Indesign Folder:
    Users/[user]/Library/Caches/Adobe InDesign
    Users/[user]/Library/Preferences/Adobe InDesign
    Access hidden user library files | Mac OS 10.7 and later
    For Windows try to give permissions to Adobe Indesign Folder:
    C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\InDesign
    C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\InDesign
    Also you can try logging in under a local administrator account as suggested by jeff.
