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.

  • Is there a way to retrieve an Apple ID using the backup email?

    Hi!
    So I have an iPad mini that I purchased about a year ago and I activated it with an apple ID that was under by brother's name. Recently I updated iTunes on it and it reset. I have to put the apple ID that i activated it with but I can't remember it. The email that I used was a yahoo, and the thing with yahoo is that if its inactive for a few months (the email) they recyle it. So, I can't check my brother's email or even guess at it because it doesn't exist anymore and he doesn't remember it. I do know that my email was the back-up email that I used for the account. I know my email, but I have to use his apple ID first for an email to even be sent to mine. Is there a way that  ican go around this and just get an email sent to mine (his back-up email)?? (I don't know the operating system, but what I do know is that I purchase it on March 2013)

    Can your brother use his iTunes account?  If he can log in then he has his passcode, use it.   ???
    AND
    The yahoo email does not get recycled unless your brother deactivates his yahoo account, and nobody does that.  So I doubt it is inactive.   The email account is the same as the Apple ID and it appears in the iPad, in settings, under iCloud or Mail account information.
    That doesn't help recover a password.  But if your brother still uses iTunes, he  remembers his passcode.

  • Is there a way to force a MBP to use the on-board on reboot?

    My wife has a 2009 15" MBP that has the Nvidia 9400 and 9600 GT video cards. She's had repeated problems with flickering and crashes, it's been serviced once with a video failure doing a wide vertical band down the screen. It's out of warranty.
    I'm pretty sure there's a problem with the 9600 video. What we'd like to do, since it's going to be a few weeks before we're in town to get to an Apple store and we can't do without the computer, is configure it to always boot to the 9400 card. Is there an easy way to do this? It seems like every time she has to reboot it, it always defaults to the 9600. We basically want it to totally ignore the 9600 and forget that it's there.
    Thanks!

    You might see if this works on your machine.

  • Is There a Way to Force a SYNC/BACKUP of the IPHONE

    Hi All. Thanks again for the help on the logo stuck issue. Is there a way to force a sync/backup of the phone so if another restore is necessary the backup is recent and can recover the phone? Thanks all.
    Bob
    Wethersfield, Ct.

    This is close to the problem I'm having. My husband let someone at work "update" his program and the goober deleted everything. I can only get a screen that has itunes logo and a usb cable picture. When I try to sync it Itunes doesn't bring up the phone on the left side. It doesn't recognize it at all. Can someone please tell me what I need to do? I've already tried reinstalling itunes, I've tried to sync on another computer and all I get is that itunes screen on my phone.

  • I sent iTunes to trash. I was able to recover the program but have to "put back" songs one at a time. Is there any way to put back from trash using the "select all" command?

    I sent iTues to trash by mistake (trying to delete files from "yesterday"). I got the program back but have to "put back" songs one at a time. Is there a way to put back multiple songs using the "select all" command or anything else? Thanks for the help.

    The prgram is in one location and the library (media + library files) are in another. Sending it all to the trash would take some pretty delibrate multiple actions and digging through multiple folders, so I don't know how this was managed unless there's something in Snow Leopard that's new. Occasionally I have moved a file to the trash in Finder that I didn't want to and I can use Finder's "undo" to undo the last move. With many files...?

  • Is there any way to search for a term using the Firefox search field, and have the results automatically open in a new tab?

    Is there any way to search for a term using the Firefox search field, and have the results automatically open in a new tab? When there was support for Google Toolbar, I was able to do this; now, whenever I want to search for something, I have to open a new tab to do it, and cut-and-paste my search into the search field in the new tab. I used to be able to highlight, drag, and drop something into the search field and have it automatically open in a new tab. This is enough for me to switch to Chrome . . .

    Set a preference to have searches from the Search Bar (upper right) automatically open all searches in a new tab
    #type '''about:config''' in the URL/Location/Address bar and press the Enter key
    #if you see a warning, accept it (promise to be careful)
    #Filter = '''browser.search.openintab'''
    #in the lower panel, double click the item (or right-click and choose "Toggle") to change the value to "true"
    #close the about:config tab and test

    About Google toolbar............
    Google decided that they will no longer produce the Google Toolbar for Firefox 5 and newer version. It is best to move on to other alternatives than to try any "hacks" to the toolbar that may or may not perform in the future. Future versions of Google toolbar will only work with IE7-9. Google Toolbar is not available on any other browser, even Google's own browser.

  • Only an exclamation point shows up when I click a thumbnail in my iphoto folder. Is there any way to recover these photos by using the thumbnails?

    Only an exclamation point shows up when I click a thumbnail in my iphoto folder. Is there any way to recover these photos by using the thumbnails? Please help. Thanks!

    That exclamation mark is displayed when iPhoto cannot link to the original file.  First make sure you are running a "managed" library by checking iPhoto's Advanced preference pane to make sure the checkbox to copy files into the library during import is checked.
    Click to view full size
    If it is checked you can try the following: make a temporary, duplicate copy of the library and apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
    Fix #1
    Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
    Select the options identified in the screenshot. 
    Fix #2
    Using iPhoto Library Manager  to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
    In the next  window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    Click on the Create button.
    Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

  • Is there a way to force PE7 to conform/recognize the audio on a file?

    I imported a .m2ts clip but it doesn't see the audio at all.  I've already verified the project settings so I know thats not it.  Is there a way to force PE7 to conform or recognize a file again?

    What is the Audio CODEC used in the muxed MPEG file? G-Spot should give you the full details. Where, exactly, did the files come from?
    PrE and PrPro can often have problems with muxed files. Much of that depends on the exact CODEC used with the Audio. One method would be to demux the file, i.e. elemental streams with video-only and audio-only. Another method would be to rip the Audio from the muxed file with a program like Audacity, and then Import that separately.
    Good luck,

  • Is there a way to force A Mini to recognize the HDMI as a sound output.

    Is there a way to force the Mac mini to recognize the HDMI as a sound output?  I have the HDMI going through a matrix switch and the video works fine but the audio is not recognized.  My Apple TV has no problem with both audio and video through the same set up to a tv.

    Some general checking:
    Open System Information found in Applications->Utilities.
    On the left side under hardware, click Audio.  In the right
    pane, Expand items if necessary to reveal the contents and
    see if there is an HDMI listing.  If so, click on it to get additional
    info.
    Also, have you connected the Mini directly to the TV?  Narrows down
    if it is actually the Mini or just how the Mini is working with the
    switch.
    Another possibility is that there is a power up sequencing issue.
    Ran into a situation with my Yamaha receiver, Mini, and Samsung TV
    that if things were not powered in the right sequence I could only
    get two channel audio and sometimes only internal audio.  With my
    setup, I needed to power up the TV (waiting for it to come up completely
    showing the searching for signal box), power up the Yamaha, then finally
    power up the Mini.  Also, after all this, if anything was switched, I would
    end up having to reboot the Mini to get audio the way it should be.

  • Is there any way to disable Quick Find and use the old VS 2010 find?

    I really dislike the Quick Find dialog. It's one of the few tools from the VS 2010 Productivity Pack that I always disabled. It looks like they've forced it on us with 2012 though, so I'm wondering if there's a way to disable Quick Find and use the old
    style Find dialog?

    I wish the VS2012 devs would realize just how badly the Quick Find tool slows me down. It's poorly labelled, does a full search immediately after every single keystroke, and doesn't default to whatever's highlighted in the code when invoked. It
    makes me feel like I'm the only one who uses the product.
    I agree with ElectricNinja and
    Disable Quick Find in VS 2012
    The quick find is terrible, and was one of the few tools that I'd disable in the 2010 pack.  wish there was a way to return to the good old normal find.
