Mail 4.4 urls link opens different website

hello,
we experience something very strange, in one of our emails we have included a url (syntax http://www.example.com) which opens a completely different website in safari, while showing the url included in the email.
we have tried the following:
1. emptied safari cache;
2. tried from different computers on various networks > same behaviour;
3. checked the raw source of the email > no reference to the other website anywhere;
needless to say the other website is available when simply typing the url in safari's address bar.
any ideas much appreciated.

Restart your Mac then try both browsers in the main account.
If that doesn't help, remove all startup items in System Preferences > Users & Groups > Login Items
And check startup items.
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following:
/Library/StartupItems
Click Go. Move any items in the StartupItems folder to the Trash.
Restart your Mac then try a browser.
If that doesn't help, back to the Finder.
Copy and paste the following:
~/Library/Cookies
Click Go the move all the files in the Cookies folder to the Trash.
Try a browser.

Can't open different Websites

Hello,
if i try to open "www.facebook.com" or "www.ebay.de" it is not possible to open the website.
Every Website works fine! I have the same Problem in other Browsers. In addition it is possible to connect to facebook with an other notebook.
So i opened my Network-Diagnostic-Tool and try to Trace:
traceroute to www.facebook.com (127.255.255.255), 64 hops max, 72 byte packets
1 * * *
2 * * *
My MacBook try to open the IP-Adress "127.255.255.255" (the same happens with ebay)
This is my Routing Table:
Destination        Gateway            Flags        Refs      Use   Netif Expire
default            fritz.box          UGSc           18       10     en1

What can I do to route Facebook, ebay to the correct IP-Adress?
I hope you could help me... thx!

You, or someone using your computer, hacked the system to block certain servers. The file modified is /etc/hosts.
By far the easiest way to fix the hosts file is to restore it from a Time Machine (or other) backup that predates the modification. If that's not possible, then do as below. Please read this whole message before doing anything.
Back up all data.
If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out these instructions.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below to select it:
open /etc/hosts
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste (command-V) into the Terminal window. A TextEdit window should open. At the top of the window, you should see something like this:
# Host Database
# localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
# when the system is booting. Do not change this entry.
127.0.0.1                              localhost
255.255.255.255          broadcasthost
::1                                        localhost
fe80::1%lo0                    localhost
Below that, you'll see some other lines. There should be nothing before the first line above. Make sure you scroll all the way to the bottom of the document. In OS X 10.7 or later, scroll bars are hidden by default until you actually start scrolling, so you may not realize that you’re not seeing the whole document.
If the contents of the TextEdit window are as described, close it, then enter the following command in the Terminal window in the same way as before:
sed '/lo0/q' !$ > Desktop/hosts
You should now have a file named "hosts" on your Desktop. Double-click the file to open it in TextEdit, and verify that it has only the contents shown above, with any extra lines removed. If so, close the window without making any changes.
Next, go back to the Terminal window and enter one final command, again without typing:
sudo sh -c 'cat Desktop/hosts > /etc/hosts'
This time, you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. Confirm. Quit Terminal. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
That will fix the hosts file. You can now delete the file that was created on your Desktop.

Send Mail with Long URL - Link getting split w/CR/LF in Email

I am using a send mail step and including a long URL so that the user can
access an Iview directly from the URL Link. The URL which is about 250 characters long is getting split across multiple lines in the MS Outlook Email therby losing the link (only the first line underlined). I am loading the container element contianing the link from a standard text and appending the necessary IView parmater to the end. I tried enclosing my URL within an href but that did not work wither. My current workaround is to code my own method
which sends the email but would rather using the standard Send Mail Step.
Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.

Linking between different websites

Hi
How to get a couple of rows of from a search result of different website from ours.
For eg.:
I am entering a search criteria from
http://www.a.com/examples/a.jsp
and searching the result from
www.b.com/examples/query?q=query
Now, the tricky part is: i shouldn't display the complete result (I just need a couple of rows from the result) and also searching 'b' website should be a background process and display in my website using b.jsp
Hope I am not confusing too much.
Thanks in advance.
Idress

Hi guys
To add to my previous query above:
I have retrieved the page (reading it line by line), but that hasn't solved my purpose actually. What I need is to get (from the html page read) the order no. and product id, say for example, that are dynamic and varies for different users. The problem here is that I don't have permission to talk to the databae of "b" website to retrieve these.
Any idea on how to accomplish this will be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Clicking a Link opens old websites in Firefox 4.0 Help?!

Basically... say I click on a link while im on a flash-game or something similar and then the link opens in a new window, the link will open a new page in Firefox (which is fine...) but then will open my last visited page instead of opening the link that I've just clicked on to navigate to.
Any ideas how to solve this problem?
Thanks

Thanks for the responses guys. I reset Firefox and restarted my computer, and it seems to have fixed the issue.
Phillip, i'm not sure how to disconnect the keyboard, or if i even can on my laptop, however, it did not appear to be a stuck key, but as i was also experiencing the same issues with Chrome and Opera, it may have been the sensitive pad under the plastic key was somehow stuck.
Fred, thanks for that, i'll save it in case i ever experience this again. :)

Can't open AOL Mail with Firefox, but can open AOL website. Have to use Internet Exp. to get into mail. Help!

Have always been able to get into AOL Mail, until recently; last 2 - 3 days. Can get into AOL website, just not mail. No problem with any other websites. Have to get to mail using Internet Explorer, and I hate Internet Exp. What has happened and how do I fix it? I tried reloading Mozilla Firefox, but that did not help.

Hi--I tried your suggestion and no dice. A window came up with the following:The item 'Firefox.exe' that has this shortcut will no longer work properly. Do you want to delete?
Another window said 'C:Program files (x86) Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe' specified in the target box is not valid. Make sure the path and file name are correct.
I have no clue as to what that means. I did delete the shortcut.
Finally went into our Kaspersky virus protection and found Firefox is in quarantine and that is probably why I am unable to uninstall and reinstall.
Any ideas????
Thanks, Ginny

Mail Auto Detect URL Links

This is a long-standing problem that I have had that recently re-surfaced when I upgraded to Snow Leopard. There was a previous discussion with the same problem here (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2197566&start=0&tstart=0).
The basic problem is this. Mail will auto-detect and link URL and email addresses while I am composing an email.
This is quite frustrating as it will interupt what I am typing and pull the cursor back to where the url or email address is when it auto-detects and creates the link. Some people might find this useful, I do not because of how quickly it happens - it is very disruptive. While using Leopard and this problem surfaced, it appeared to be related to the MailTags plugin since disabling that plugin made the problem go away. I also found that the auto-detect and linking occurs during activity with the mail server as noticed by a quick burst of activity happening (as shown in the Activity Window) just before the auto-detect and linking occurs.
If anyone can provide any information and assistance as to why this is happening and how to correct it, I would appreciate it. Unfortunatley, I have grown even more comfortable and reliant on MailTags than when this problem surfaced with Leopard and do not want to leave MailTags disabled.

You create the new bookmark with the javascript replacing the original URL from any old bookmark you have and no longer need, or just create a new bookmark for any thing at all specifically for your links script. Then once you are at a page where you want the links displayed, you just select your new links bookmark. Your page will stay open, but a new window will open as well, with all the links listed. You might want to change the size of the window, the width=400 and height=200 result in a pretty small window. Anyway, I put the Links javascript bookmarklet in my Bookmarks menu, so while I am here on this page I just go to the Bookmarks menu, slide down and select Links, and a new window opens with all the links on this page listed.
Francine
PS--It would be more impressive if I had written that script, but I didn't. I found it years ago and saved it with a batch of bookmarklets that do other useful things, such as suppressing animated gifs. I just checked, and a particularly useful collection, Jesse's Bookmarklets, still exists:

Can't open file://-URLs (Links) in Mail or Messages. Adium works. What is wrong?

Hi, in our office, we send links to documents on our server with file://-URLs. In Yosemite (Mail and Messages) it is no longer possible to open these links via the services menu (open URL). Adium works. Do I have to change something in my Yosemite-Configuration? Thanks for helping. Best regards Michael

Apple broke the way Mail handles afp:// URL links in Mavericks and has finished breaking Mail in Yosemite by breaking file:// URL links as well.
AFP urls in Mavericks are mounting as volumes

Click URL to open in IE while another web page has been opened in kiosk mode.

I am using IE8 in Window 7.
I opened a certain web page in kiosk mode (call IE browser with -k option, a full screen without window frame). While this page remained opened, I pressed ‘Window key + D’ to return to desktop. After that I went to Microsoft Outlook, opened
a mail and clicked a URL in the mail. The URL was opened in kiosk mode which was not I expected. I expected to have this URL opened in normal IE browser mode.
I tried the same action, while a web page was opened in kiosk mode and it remained opened, I returned to desktop and opened a URL within a Word document or Excel document. The URL was opened in normal IE browser mode. It appeared that there was
something special with Outlook.
How can I fix this problem? While a web page was opened in kiosk mode and it remains opened, I return to desktop and click a URL anywhere no matter in Microsoft Outlook, Word, Excel or other applications, I want to have this URL opened in normal IE browser
mode.
Thank you for your advice!

In getURL you had a method parameter _self, look URLRequest
definition in Flash help to see if it receives a similar parameter.
_self is for link to open in same browser window, _blank is used
for a new window.

URL Link to Specific SWF Slide

Is it possible once a Captivate 2 project has been exported
to HTML/SWF to have a URL link open the SWF file to a specific
slide number? For example if a Captivate 2 project is 20 slides
long, the user could click a link that would open the swf file to a
specific slide in the middle, say slide 10. Or can the html coding
that opens the Captivate 2 exported SWF file be set to open the
file to a specific slide? I am trying to avoid breaking up a multi
scene file just so users can access one or two slides and not have
to navigate through an entire file.
Thanks.

It's pretty simple to do with JavaScript actually and Philip Hutchison just released the latest version of his "Captivate Controller" a couple of days ago.
This allows you to control Captivate 2,3 & 4 movies from JavaScript commands in a simple and non-technical way.
You can read more about it and download it here: http://pipwerks.com/journal/2009/06/07/introducing-the-captivatecontroller/

Wrong URL link is being sent to users

Hi,
There are workitems in user's inbox. An external notification mail is sent to user via a scheduled report.
These notification mail contains a URL link to log in SAP system. This URL link is old. Is it is possible to change an existing url in an email sent to user? If its not possible what workaround can be provided so that user gets the correct url to log in??
Regards,
Vittalprasad

Hi,
How can I resend the mail for the workitems for which mail has already been send once??
If you execute the Program RSWUWFML2
You can see From work item creation date & From work item creation time in the Block "Data for an Individual Run (Time Stamp Not Set)"
There give that date & Time ( Date from which you want to resend the workitem) and execute it.
Before that confirm whether it sending the New URL.
