Make link in e-mail

Hello,
Haven't posted here in a long time because my mac has been trouble free....however, can somebody please tell me why I can't make a link in my e-mails anymore. I used to just copy and paste and then highlight and right click and it gave an option of "make link". I'm not sure which update caused it to disappear but it no worky any more.
I did a search and somebody had the same question but it was left unanswered.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Just copy and paste the url into Mail and it will be a hyperlink when you send the letter.
Make sure you inclose the link like this, in case it wraps. <http://www.000webhost.com/>

How should I do to make links to websites "clickable" when I send an e-mail?

If I use Explorer the links in e-mails always are blue and "clickable", I just click once on the link. When I use Firefox the links are not "clickable", I have to copy and paste the link directly into the browser. I am using Hotmail for my e-mails.

The link button is the one with the little piece of chain on it.

HT5312 I didn't make a rescue e-mail and now i forgot the answers of my security questions!!' And the apple support contact wont open???

I'm not sure what you mean by the 'apple support contact wont open' (?). If you mean the 'contact iTunes Store support' link on the page that you posted from I've just tried it and it seems to wok ok for me, though I haven't gone as far as to actually contact them.
You can contact either iTunes Support or Apple to get the questions reset.
e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then 'Forgotten Apple ID security questions'
or try ringing Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Accounts Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
When they've been reset you can then use the steps on the page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use, or if it's available in your country you could change to 2-step verification : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5570

After the Firefox 6.0.2 update (up from 6.0), Firefox does not open a tab/page anymore when clicking on links in e-mail(have Thunderbird 6.0.2)

Firefox no longer receives clicks on links in e-mail and others. No response at all. When I click on URL links in Windows, I receive "Windows cannot find http://<an address>. Make sure you typed the name correctly ...". When I click on e-mail links in Thunderbird, I do not get an error but nothing happens.

This problem disappeared after a few days by itself but the last significant change in my PC prior to noticing normal Firefox link behaviour was MS Vista update KB2607712 & restart. This may or may not be the solution to the problem.

Where did the old left click shortcut go - to 'make link'?

Aloha, Please tell me if there is a way to make a link like there was prior to installing the 10.4.11 update.
Before i installed that update i was able to press control & click and the pop up menu would give me the quick option 'make link' from the link text i typed. Now, since i have installed the update, it is gone and some of my links don't automatically become links; in email they seem to but on, for example, myspace they do not.
Please tell me if there is a shortcut to get to that sweet, quick and easy old 'make link' option.
many mahalo's

But, Simon...
where is the link to mail?
I did use your link (as I have before) but nowhere on this page is there a link to mail. Is it hidden somewhere? Is it a secret? All I see are ads for using .Mac.
This is what I see:
• Tour .Mac
• One-click web publishing
• Photocast with iPhoto
• Exchange files from anywhere
• Communicate Apple style
• Bring groups together
• Stay in sync
• Backup your life
• How it works
• .Mac in action
• Membership options
Where the heck is Mail? And why did Apple decide to make it so difficult to find?

Links in e-mail won't open!

Links won't open when I click them in the e-mail that I'm reading!
What's up with that?
I have tried all the preference options that I could find in Mail, Safari, and Firefox.
(The "set default browser" preference in Safari makes no difference!)
I also searched all over the apple site to no avail!
The inability to follow links in e-mail, renders this application useless!
Please help me resolve this problem!

My experience hasn't been anything like yours and I've been using Macs since the Apple IIe which didn't have a hard drive. I've always used PCs and Windows at work so I have extensive experience with both platforms and my personal money has never been spent on a PC running Windows and it never will. I'll live without a computer first.
There are alternatives to purchasing MS Word for OS X which are compatible with Word and don't cost a dime. If you did some checking on things like this instead of being more concerned about not having access to Google Maps, you would have saved some money. The beta version of Google Maps for OS X is available BTW.
Do you believe Microsoft Office or Word is included with every PC/Windows purchase at no charge?
Think again.
If most of the OS X users are perfectly happy, then why are these discussion forums so immense?
For one, these Discussions are the equivalent to a Hospital ward for Macs. There are nothing but problems reported here and this represents a very small percentage of all Mac users. When you visit someone at a Hospital, do you leave the Hospital believing EVERYONE in that city or town must be sick since the Hospital is full of patients? Or when visiting any car dealership regardless the make, seeing their repair and service shop full of cars coming to the conclusion that make must be defective or the owners must not be perfectly happy or they wouldn't have their cars in for repair or service?
Visit Dell's forum or the equivalent of the Apple Discussions if you want to see immense and their large number of satisfied customers. Based on your logic about this, I wouldn't consider going anywhere near a Dell computer after visiting Dell's forum.
I can go on and one but hopefully you get the point.
I hope they're paying you well to deal with jerk-os like me!
This is a user to user help forum only that is provided and moderated by Apple. People that post here with helpful suggestions volunteer their time and are not paid by Apple.
Unfortunately, if this company continues on this same course,
your next paycheck won't include any commissions from my purchases!
With your attitude, you should sell your Mac and all software on eBay or wherever and purchase a Windows PC. Get ready to fork over additional money for Microsoft Office which is not included with every PC purchase and don't forget about purchasing Firewall and Antivirus protection since you'll need it. If you believe owning and using a Windows PC will be less trouble free, you are in for a big surprise and rude awakening.
Good luck.

I'm using windows live mail as my default, when I click file, send link, the proper mail window opens but the link is not highlighted in blue and cannot be opened by recipients

The link that shows up in the e-mail I send cannot be opened, there is no hyperlink I believe.

There is usually a toolbar button in the editor to turn a text link into a clickable hyperlink (look for a chain like button).<br />
You can select the text and click that button to turn the link into a clickable hyperlink.<br />
If you can't find the button then hover them all to check the tooltip of each.

Where did "make link" go in Notes?

Is it possible to create hyperlinks in Mountain Lion Notes? My old links in Notes created in Mail under Lion OS still work but I don't see any way to create new internet links or to edit existing links. I can't believe Apple would remove this functionality so I'm hoping I'm just overlooking something!

Well, it's not a very intuitive location on Apple's part but at least it makes link text clickable. Do you know if there is still a way to create a clickable link from a keyword or phrase instead of only identifable link text?
Thank you CaptFred!

Thank you, "the-edmeister" -- You render a great service, one that lifts my spirits.
Your answer also taught me to be a little more persistent, as I had started looking at Preferences, and just didn't notice the icons (including Applications) at the top of that window that would have led me to my answer.

How can I use terminal to make links open in same window the default behaviour, as it was in Safari 5.0, How can I use terminal to make links open in same window the default behaviour, as it was in Safari 5.0

In Lion, the default of pressing a link on a web page, is to open the page in a new tab. In itself, I do like this because this is what I did for 19 out of any 20 links, which I command+clicked in previous Safari versions.
However, there is a snag to this behaviour. Most (all?) secure site do not like links to be opened in a new tab. For example, when I am doing Web banking, The the linked page doesn’t open in new tab. Rather I get a page telling me my login session is expired. Probably a security measure instituted by my bank.
I since found out, that a command-click opens lings in the same window. Theoretically that solves the problem, if I would think about this all the time. I don't. Old habits die slowly.
Is there a terminal command to make links open in same window the default behaviour, as it was in Safari 5.0.

Hi Eric,
I got it figured out today, basically you have to load the Parallel Flash Loader first into FPGA ram. It is a special .sof file (pfl_epXXXX.sof) based on your FPGA. Code is actually pretty straight forward, using the Sys Exec VI. Use the windows based programmer to generate the .cdf file that identifies your FPGA, attached Flash and .pof file .
Syntax was odd going into Sys Exec. Note the extra "C" in in front of the "quartus_prm.exe" I have no idea why that was needed, but I was getting an error until I just happened to put it in there (Blind Luck :-))
I used a 2 element array going into a four loop
cmd /cquartus_pgm.exe -c USB-BLASTER -m JTAG -o P;pfl_epXXXX.sof
cmd /cquartus_pgm.exe -c USB-BLASTER -m JTAG S_FPGA.cdf
Defining the working director C:\altera\12.1sp1\qprogrammer\bin
And added match string with "Successfully performed operation" on the output in the loop to make sure everything loaded correctly then adding the array to give me a overall P/F
To anyone doing this same thing Altera's documentation is poor to say the least. It took most of a week to figure this out Not allowed to upload code, so anyone wanting details just post here and I will try to help. This was painful, with lots of lessons learned.
Thanks for the interest though
Best regards John

How can i check my mails on the iphone and make sure that the mail wont pop up again on my computer ?

How can i check my mails on the iphone and make sure that the mail wont pop up again on my computer/ will be deleted on the server ?

For that kind of connectivity you need to be using an email account configured either as IMAP or Exchange.
IMAP & Exchange accounts will maintain a sync across all your devices, so if you read / delete a message on your phone, it will disappear from the server as well. This cannot happen in POP email accounts.
If your using gmail, instructions on how to set up exchange / imap are here http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138740&topic=14252
Alternatively, if its anything other than Google, you will need to contact your email providor or IT department (if your email address resides with an enterprise environment) to get the correct settings.
Hope this helps!

How can i link my E-mail with my iPad in a way that i can delete my messages from my email inbox server not from my iPad inbox only?

How can i link my E-mail with my iPad in a way that i can delete my messages from my email inbox server also not from my iPad inbox only?
Because when i delete emails from my iPad inbox, it will be deleted on my iPad only but when i check my email inbox server from the browser its not deleted!
So how can i set up this link so when i delete any email from my iPad it will be deleted from my email inbox server also?

Hi Pierrot10,
Insert your backup disc (or plug your external hd), then open Mail.
In the File menu, click *Import Mailboxes* and follow the steps for a *Mail for Mac OS X* transfer.
Navigate to your CD/DVD's or external HD's backup and hit "OK".
This should create a new "Imported" folder in Mail with all your old messages in it, that you can then rearrange as you wish, creating new mailboxes etc.

How can I stop conversations from being linked together in Mail? I don't like that feature.

I don't like that conversations are linked together in mail. It always scares me that I sent something to someone who it wasn't intended for. Sometimes the conversations are relevant but most of the time one email has absolutely nothing to do with another email so I don't see why they are linked together. I have looked all through the mail preferences but I don't see any options to change it.
Does anyone has the same thoughts and any solution?

Yes this worked! Thank you! Also sometimes my mail completely disappears and then it comes back but I'm not sure why it does that and sometimes the search feature works and sometimes it doesn't.

How do u make new folders in mail when I press edit only move delete or mark comes up nowhere can u make new folder

I can't make new folder in mail on my normal acc or icloud

If you are in desperation for folders you could set up an imap account such as Gmail or Hotmail, create whatever folders you want, add the account to your iPad, send the emails you want to categorise to your new email address and manage them from within. You could also consider gradually making the new email address your future one thus eliminating the need to be always forwarding and thus creating duplicates in a sense. Might be a bit clumsy but it is a work around!
