ICal not using the default email application?!??

Hello,
I use Thunderbird as my default (and only) email application. In the preferences of Apple's Mail application, I selected Thunderbird as the default email reader.
However, when sending email from iCal, it attempts to use Mail, not Thunderbird?!? This happens both when emailing an event and when sending an invite for a published calendar.
How do I make iCal use Thunderbird for sending mail?
Tried searching the forum and Apple Support site, but failed to find an answer.
Thanks,

I am also now having this issue. I didn't have this problem previously. Other apps (e.g. AddressBook) are using my default mail program, but iCal strongly prefers Mail.app? I am seeing this on my laptop that I don't use as often, but will confirm on my desktop machine tomorrow ...

Excel 2010 not using the default print settings

Currently got an issue with Excel 2010 not using the default print settings for a couple of users on our network,
basically when pressing cntrl P or selecting the print option from the file menu the printer settings are different to the print settings selected in the devices and printers menu, we have checked the print drivers etc but this has still not resolved the
issue, all other office programs are fine and also other users are reporting this issue more and more with different printers,
tried restarting print spooler service and re-installing office but this has come to no avail,
any ideas would be much appreciated!

Hi,
This issue occurs because the Page Setup settings that you specify in your file override the settings that you specify in the printer driver properties.
To work around this issue, do not specify the paper size, page orientation, or page margins in the printer driver properties. Instead, specify these settings in your workbook.
To specify these settings, follow these steps:
1.Start Excel, and then open the workbook you want to change.
2.In Microsoft Office Excel 2010, click the sheet that you want to print, and then click the Page Layout tab. In the Page Setup group, click Page Setup to open the Page Setup dialog box.
3.Click the Page tab.
4.Under Paper size, click the paper size that you want.
5. Click Options button and in Printing Shortcuts tab, in the Paper source area, perform one of the following steps: ◦If the printer can automatically select the correct paper tray to use, click Default tray in the First page list, and then click Default
tray in the Other pages list.
Default tray is the default setting in both of these lists.
◦If the printer cannot automatically select the correct paper tray to use, you may have to select the paper tray that contains the paper size that you selected in step 4.
To do this, click the appropriate paper tray in the First page list and in the Other pages list.
6.If you want to change the page orientation or its page margins, click the Finishing tab.
7.Select the options that you want.
8.Click OK.
9.Repeat steps 2 to 8 for each sheet of your workbook for which you want to specify settings.

List users of specific databases that are not using the default storage quotas

I have an Exchange 2010 SP3 DAG with 4 databases. I am trying to use powershell to find out, per database, which mailboxes are
not using the "mailbox database defaults", which is unlimited in this case (no quotas for Issue warning, Prohibit send, and Prohibit send and receive).
Something like "get-mailbox | where {$_.UseDatabaseQuotaDefaults -ne $true} will not work because I just want the data for specific databases".
I have also tried "get-mailbox -database nameofdatabase | where {$_.UseDatabaseQuotaDefaults -ne $true} | out-file c:\temp\nameofdatabase.tx" but it lists some users that show unlimited for all categories and others some that have limits on certain
other ones. In short, it is not correct.
HDL

Hi,
From your description, I would like to clarify the following thing:
Running the Get-Mailbox -Database MBX1 | Where-Object {$_.usedatabasequotadefaults -eq $false} cmdlet will list all mailboxes who have a custom storage quota. But it only displays the value of ProhibitSendQuota. You can check the values of other storage
quotas via EMC.
EMC -> Recipient Configuration -> Mailbox -> double click the mailbox -> Mailbox Settings -> Storage Quotas
Hope my clarification can be helpful to you.

Is there a way to force href="mailto: to use the default email client

I would like to use the href="mailto:" in my website to automatically open an email but the end user gets the message "There is no email program associated to perform the requested action..."
Is there a way to force to the mailto to use the and user's default email client?
Thank you for your help

Hi James -
That is the default behavior of browsers when handling the mailto link.
Please keep in mind that nearly half of website visitors do not have an email client as they are using mobile devices or public computers or web-based email like Gmail, MSN mail etc.
Please don't feed the spambots. Best practice is to use an HTML "form" in conjunction with a server-side forms processing script. Ask your hosting provider if they provide one for you.

Stagewebview is not using the default browser?

Hello community,
We encounter an issue regarding the userAgent we get with Javascript when our page is viewed from an Android App running Air and using the Stagewebview.
We noticed that despite the default browser set as Google Chrome (Webkit v.537), we identify that app using Webkit v.534.
After a lot of trouble shooting, it seems that there is a difference between "native" browser and "default" browser.
Is that correct?
If so, the question is: Is there a way to make Stagewebview use the user selected browser/engine ?
Our website needs to display text vertically (japanese text) and the form elements are not well recognized in the 534 version browser, but work perfectly in the last version of Chrome we can get running on those devices.
(We target Android 4.2+ users)
Any input will be appreciated.
Cedric Simon

Hello ArkadiuszOkoń,
I downloaded the 4.4W sdk and replaced the file as proposed, but I don't notice any change.
On Desktop, I can see that Air webkit 533 is used. did my compile really took the new file into configuration?
I'm using FlashDevelop, are there settings to change in the bat fie or in the manifest?
As you proposed about the <uses-sdk> settings, some are already setup and I didn' change them, should I higher the minSdkVersion for example?
Here is the current section:
<android>
<manifestAdditions><![CDATA[<manifest android:installLocation="auto">
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="8" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-feature android:required="true" android:name="android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch" />
</manifest>]]></manifestAdditions>
</android>
Also, Jan-F-W, thank you for your proposal,
I should explain something else:
The app is using "stagewebviewbridge" package that one can find here : stagewebviewbridge - Extend Adobe AIR StageWebView ( Desktop, iOS, Android ) - Google Project Hosting
We do not have access to the source code of that app, but we have to investigate the case and propose a solution otherwise the development company in charge will not make a single move.
So I created a sample application that loads a page on my machine and that displays the userAgent to check what engine is running.
(in that case, I can use a StageWebView directly if I want)
I can see that depending on the useNative boolean parameter of StageWebView I get a different userAgent, which is great.
BUT, I had a doubt on mobile, as stated by Adobe Documentation: This parameter is ignored on mobile.
In doubt, I checked on the mobile device, and in both base, the device "native" browser is used, not the Chrome set as "default".
Maybe my tests are not accurate enough? I'm not a flash developer, so I feel a bit lost there.
Thank you for your guidance.

I have never set up keychain, as I do not use the apple email. How do I set passwords for keychain? I am in an endless circle

I have never set up keychain, as do not use apple mail. It is driving me crazy. It interrupts everything I try to do every 3 or 4 seconds. I want it off my computer absolutely and forever. How???? PLease>

This article has some helpful information, but it reads like it was written by the crypo guys (a bit terse and mathematical, but correct).
OS X Mountain Lion: About your keychain password
It comes down to this:
If your keychain gets messed up, Launch Keychain access and try to repair. The important keychain that tracks with your username is "Login".
If you can't get anywhere with that, just discard the locked keychain and everything in it and slowly, over time, build up a new one on an as-needed basis.

Reader 11 does not recognize the default MAPI application Outlook 2013

I am having repeatable issues with Reader not being ablet to pop open an email from the Send File command in the File Menu.
All of the other applications such as QuickBooks and Word seem to open an email window and prepopulate it with the attachment as expected.
Here is the screen cap:
Note that Outlook is open and that it still does not recognize.
I can get the webmail interface to work with the Office2013/Office365 combo, but it only dumps a blank email with the attachment in your Drafts folder.
This problem has been shown to exist on both 32 and 64 bit versions of Windows 7 and both 32 and 64 bit versions of Outlook 2013.
This is a growing issue amongst my Office365 client base, which is a growing client base. Any help would be considered a blessing!

Ok sorry I've taken so long to respond. The reply button wouldn't pop up for me to reply!
There was never a dialog box asking for me to select the program from installed programs when I open the pdf from outlook express. But when I opened a pdf from my desktop it asked that question and I had it "always use this program to open this type of file." So I assumed that it was would work when opening from outlook express. But it doesn't.
I've tried unclicking the protected mode button under the preferences general section. And finally I'm not sure how to post screenshots of the attachment thumbnail and dialog. I'm looking all over my keyboard for a button to push I don't have a clue as to what to do! I do have a print Scr button but when I click on it nothing happens. I've tried holding down the shift key and the button and the alt key and print scr button but nothing happens.
Could it be that somehow it's not recognizing ARCO.EXCH.DOCUMENT as that's what it thinks the type of document is?
I've already created an association for pdf files and it'll open them on my desktop, just not in outlook express.

Skype does not use the default browser.

I DONT WANT ANYTHING TO DO WITH BING. GETTING SICK AND TIRED OF SKYPE CHANGING MY SEARCH ENGINE WITHOUT MY PERMISSION. ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY GIVE ME AN OPTION AND I REFUSE. THIS TELLS ME THAT THIS IS INTENTIONAL AND NOT A BUG.

Skype has an optional make Bing my search engine selection. It's never set Bing as my search engine if I didn't keep it selected thought it may have updated the list of available search providers (currently my list is Bing, Yahoo, and Google, though I could add more) in case I change my mind. Skype doesn't install anything from Yahoo. If something like that was installed it came from another installer. Skype uses IE's engine in the background but that shouldn't affect your default browser. If you find some add activity occurring make sure your IE is up to date and reset IE to it's defaults. This will ensure the IE engine is up to date and that everything is reset properly. After an IE reset you can set your default browser back to your browser of choice. Download and install the latest IE (if not already updated)

How to spot Mail from being default email application

Hi
Call me crazy but I like to use Netscape as my email application. I need to stop mail to launch as the default email application.
How can I do this?
Thanks

Yes, of course(I'm sorry, my last post wasn't so complete as it should be), exactly the same as it was with me... I've solved it at "the long way" (there must be a shorter way, something like an "abort"-way, but I don't know that way...). I've opened an extra account at yahoo (.ca or .com), which is easily to set in Mail (see in your yahoo mail > options). Than I have imported that mail-account into my Mail, so that I can use all the options (also mail>preferences). Than I have set my standard mail-application in the tab "general" into entourage. than it is just load your mail into netscape mail.
Greets,
Arne

Photobooth default email application change

Is there anyway to change the default email application in photobooth. The default is Mac Mail and I want to use Entourage instead.
I've switched the default mail to Entourage already but Photobooth is the only one that doesn't change.
Thanks

You can look at the network.protocol-handler.external.mailto prefs on the about:config page.<br />
If network.protocol-handler.external.mailto prefs are user set (bold) then right-click and Reset them to the default value.<br />
You can also try to change the network.protocol-handler.warn-external.mailto pref to true.<br />

Aattach as email option in Acrobat X Standard doesn't send to the default email address in Outlook

I am running Microsoft Office 2010 Proffesional + and in Outlook I have two separate (not aliases) email accounts that are attached to the same .pst file.
When I open a pdf file with Adobe Acrobat, and try to "Attach to Email", Adobe opens up Outlook and creates a new message like it's supposed to, but it does not select the default email account as the sending account.
I've tried removing the secondary account and then re-creating as new, but I still get the same result. I also created a new profile and configured both email accounts but didn't worked. BTW i have installed the most recent updates for both OS (Win 7)and Acrobat
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance

Sorry totally my fault - no issue at all... more a problem with the tester! users with an external email address are receiving the email it just seems when the email is sent from Apex standalone is appears in the inbox but when it is sent from within an iframe it is sent straight to the junk mail by the email client... still a little strange there is a difference in behaviour but at least it doesn't totally fail as I first thought.

How to add a mute button without using the default skin?

I want to use a mute/unmute button for my current project which does not use the default skin. I searched the web and found the following solution.
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/163/2ed9f163.html
I followed the instruction and it works fine on single slide. The problem is that it does not carry through the whole project. If I mute the first slide, the audio is on again on the next slide. My mute/unmute setting doesn't go to the next slide.
Any one have a solution to this problem? Any help or tips are greatly appreciated.

Hi there
Did you pay close attention to step 4?
Click image to see larger...
Addtionally, your post reads as if you feel the mute button is only avaliable with the Default playback control set. Note that there are all sorts of options with the supplied playback controls that offer enabling a mute button.
Cheers... Rick

Great exercise to document the problem like this. It got me thinking about how an app with modules would be different from an app that does not use modules. Solution: I moved the dummy reference of PersonPhotoView out to the main application file (as opposed to being inside the module) and it worked. I've probably been lucky not to have experienced this problem earlier, because for most other entities I have an instance attached to my model which is linked / compiled with the main application.
