Mail 2.1 corrupting embedded links

Mail is corrupting my embedded links (e.g. the ones I create using the Edit Link selection).
Here is an example:
Actual URL:https://pds.ptc.com/Windchill/netmarkets/jsp/document/view.jsp?oid=document%7Ewt .doc.WTDocument%253A200701568&u8=1
Embedded URL: https://pds.ptc.com/Windchill/netmarkets/jsp/document/view.jsp?oid=document%257E wt.doc.WTDocument%253A200701568&u8=1
The part around =document%7Ewt.doc is changed in the embedded link to =document%257Ewt.doc

This is driving me crazy too! Trying to embed Wikipedia links which include "%" signs prompts Mail to add the number 5 for some unknown reason, creating bad links. WHY?

Mail not recognizing embedded links

Just installed a Samsung 840 EVO SSD and then cloned my OS using CCC.
Now when I boot from the new drive, Mail no longer recognizes embedded links in any messages...
Help!
Thanks too...

Ok....I used Cocktail to repair permissions on the SSD drive and now all links in Mail are working again as normal!

Mail I inherited an iMac, OS X 20.6.8. The Mail system is corrupted. I cannot close mail formats that opened to be written and sent. I just get an unpleasant noise when I try to close these. Also, I don't know what the outgoing mail link should be.

Quit Mail, Trash this file...
Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions, test if things work OK in Safe Mode.
Then move these files to the Desktop for now...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.recentitems.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
Reboot & test.
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.

Embedded links in text no longer available in Yosemite's Messages?!

Hello! I've been using iChat and Messages for years with my co-workers and I've discovered that in Mac OS 10.10 embedded URL's no longer seem to be possible. I am used to selecting text, hitting [command]-K and pasting in a URL before I send a message, but now my only option is to past in an ugly, raw URL in my message. This is a huge problem when I send a link to a funny video or cat meme picture whose name or descriptor is in the URL, completely ruining the punch line. I have to tell the message's recipient not to read the URL but to simply click on it and trust me, which ruins the joke. How am I supposed to rickroll my friends? I can still embed a link in Mail or even TextEdit. Even in this online forum format I can link in that stupid Rick Astley video.
Dear Mr. Apple,
Please let me add embedded link to my messages in the Messages app in Mac OS 10.10.
Love,
Bruce

Hi,
From time to time the thinking on this seems to change.
AIM stopped their App and other Clients (at that time this included iChat) from sending hyperlinked text due to several incidents of malicious code in links.
Only plain text links could be sent.
Some time later, when people seemed to have forgotten about this the ability was added back.
It would seem that the issue is back again.

Embedded links in emails won't open new window or tab in FF.

Running Mac OS X 10.6.6 and FF Version 3.6.12. I'm using Mail Version 4.4 as my email client and when I try and open an embedded link from an email, the link doesn't open a new tab or window. FF recognizes the link, but doesn't respond with a new tab or window. If I copy and paste the link into the browser the links work fine, so I feel like it's a setting or bug that has been changed somewhere somehow. This problem only happens when I try to click directly from the email. I've tried searching the preferences in both Mail and FF, but can't seem to find anything that fixes the problem. This issue started happening two weeks ago when I did the latest Mac OS X security update. Any thoughts or suggestions?

Hi everyone, I have Snow Leopard 10.6.8. I have been very very frustrated by this problem. [I could not create new windows, and anything that opens new windows, such as trying to see what Add-ons you have etc would not work]. I read about changing screen alignment to the top... I have one screen so the option does not exist. The above messages would not fix this problem. I searched hard and did find a solution in the end. I read stuff about removing Add-ons until the problem is fixed, but its simply not the case.
First of all open Firefox. next go to options: Help --- 'Restart with Add-ons disabled'. Tick the box for add-ons, restart firefox. Next go to Tools --- Add-ons. Next (In the Add-ons Manager' click on 'Plugins' on the left hand side pane. Look for the small blue writing that says 'Check to see if your plugins are up to date'.
Now notice it should say 'Missing Flash'. "For your safety, Firefox has disabled your outdated version of Flash. Please upgrade to the latest version". I followed this, reinstalled Flash and it now works as it always did, no problems. For people where the above fix didn't work, try this one out. Hope it helps people!

How to create an embedded link with VBScript that references user website from Active Directory?

I have scoured the web for days and have not been able to quite come up with exactly what I need for this. I have created an Outlook signature deployment using VBScript which sets information in an already formatted Word doc using placeholders. (Ex. [Displayname],
[Initial], [City])
All of that works as expected, but now marketing would like to have an embedded link reference some of our users personal web pages. So the link would display some kind of standard text like "Click Here". Once clicked on the user would be redirected
to the personal web page of the person who sent the email. My problem is, I have no idea how to get the hyperlink to pull in the information from Active Directory...another problem is I know only enough coding to be dangerous so I am stuck.
Here is a sample of what I am working with, I am hoping someone can point me in the right direction. Thanks!

Can you ask a specific question? You have posted a script and noted you need a link but there is no question.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

CANNOT SEE EMAILS WITH EMBEDDED LINKS ON MY HTC INCREDIBLE

I recently linked my Outlook account through a POP3 on my HTC Incredible. For some reason I'm not able to view messages with embedded links in the body of the email or the senders signature. For example - If someone sends me an email and they have a FB icon embeded in their signature, I'm unable to view the email. I can see who it's coming from but cannot see the text in the body of the email. Does anyone have any work throughs for this issue? Thanks!

Hello,
Please try the troubleshooting step provided below:
Touch the Email icon from the Home Screen.
Touch Mail size limit option.
Touch No limit.
Another tool that you may find useful, is the HTC Simulator that can be found at the link below:

Receive e mail but when trying a link screen freezes

I receive e mails but when using a link from the e mail screen freezes for 15minutes or so.
How to overcome?

I would focus on getting just one of these services running first--Gmail runs fine for inbound and outbound mail on my Yosemite/Apple Mail system. Let's check your outgoing Mail settings for Gmail:
Is the "Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP)" for your Gmail account (under Preferences/Accounts) set to a definition you made for Gmail, as opposed to some other e-mail service? And is "Use only this server" for this Gmail account checked?
Is this Gmail outgoing server definition (choose it via "Edit SMTP Server List") set according to the Google documentation (https://support.google.com/mail/troubleshooter/1668960?hl=en&from=13275&rd=1)?
On my system, under Account Information for my outgoing Gmail server settings, I have "smtp.gmail.com" as the Server Name and "TLS Certificate" set to None. Under Advanced, I have "Automatically detect and maintain account settings" checked, Port set to 465, "Use SSL" checked, "Authentication" set to Password, "Allow insecure authentication" unchecked, and my User Name (which includes the @gmail.com extension) and password. If you're using 2-step verification, you need an "app password" from Google instead of the one you'd type in a web browser. I've seen Mail drop this SMTP password setting if I don't save the configuration before editing a different account setup.
If you've made changes, save them and exit Mail, then restart it and verify the changes took hold.
There could also be an issue with redundant or corrupt entries in your Login Keychain (via Keychain Access) for your Gmail account, but I'd focus on the Mail preferences first.

Embedded Links that can't be deleted.

I have several embedded links of an old image added onto my work, however several of the links could not be deleted and are invisible on the artwork. I can select them by using Go to Link but I cannot move them or delete them only resize it.
How can I get rid of this as I don't want to risk it appearing when coming up for print?
Thanks

Turn off the preview to see where the images are. (You should see rectangles. You should also find them somewhere in the Layers stack)
Check if anything is locked. (Object > Unlock All.)
Check whether layers are locked, if so unlock them.
Select the images (Links panel, click on link and then Go to Link button) and delete them.

When I want to mail a web-page or link firefox keeps opening new windows and cannot be stopped.

My laptop is a Samsung R730 (quite happy with it). I use Eudora for e-mailing. If I want to mail a web-page or link and click under 'file'to send it, Firefox starts opening new tabs without stopping up to over a hundred. I have to brutally switch off my lap-top, start agaiu. Restart Firefox which wants to open all the old tabs, click it off quickly. After that I can reopen to normal.

You get that problem if you select the Firefox program to handle a file if you get an "open with" dialog.

How can I send a ThinkLink image with all the embedded links in Thunderword Email?

As you are aware, ThinkLink images have embedded links (word files, images, videos etc.). I am, however, not able to send these images through Thunderword emails. I have tried both Inset Image and Insert HTML but nothing works. Of course, I can understand that ThinkLink is a new concept and most of the email clients don't support it.
Thanks,

No I am not aware. I have now googled thinklink, joined their site and found that they do not create images. Only Javascript.
So no email client such as Thunderbird, which does not allow javascript, or any person disabling it in their browser for security reasons, will see your interactive images because they are not images they are interactive programs written in Javascript.
Now how to get unsubscribed from these folk, they already tried spamming my whole Google Plusfriends list.

Is there a way to create a PDF from outlook e-mail that does not embed the attachment? better, is there a way to convert the e-mail with attachement (not embeded) as pdf pages?
- Problem: I have 1400 e-mails with attachments that need to be converted into pdf and the attachments cannot be embeded.
System: PC Windows 7 using Acrobat X Prof. - Thank you!

Hi ,
There is an option of embedding index for faster search while converting email to a PDF .
However I am not sure that will serve your purpose or not .
I would recommend you to get in touch with Microsoft support as well .
Meanwhile I'll work on it and get back to you in case I get a desired solution .

After upgrading my iPhone 4S to iOS6, my Find My Friends app no longer links to my Contacts and does not show contact names. It only shows e-mail addresses and does not link up to the corresponding email address in my Contacts. How can I fix this?

I am also having problems with a site I am building. No matter what websafe font I use it displays as New Times Roman in FireFox. The correct fonts show in both IE9 and Chrome.
In addition, text shifts in FireFox. I have to position other text objects farther and farther apart as I go down the page or they start to overlap. Nav buttons and other images also have to be positioned in the wrong place for them to be in the correct place when the page is opened in FireFox. FireFox should display pages correctly by default. I can't expect th average user to have to tweek his/her settings to display my site.
I have been recommending FireFox on my website as the best browser. I might have to change that and abandon FireFox myself.
