My friend, who is blind and navigates his computer largely via hotkeys, has asked me to try to discover whether there is a hotkey for attaching a file to an email in Firefox. I cannot find this on the web. Any suggestions?

Sorry, I don't know what other details I should provide. My friend has a program installed which lets him know out loud what is happening as he navigates, but it's been quite a process for him to attach files; he often requires help and it would certainly be easier with a hotkey.
I did check the hotkeys list on this site and discovered a whole lot of hotkeys I never knew existed, but none for attaching a file to an email. Any ideas that might be helpful are welcome, however I should say up front that I'm not nearly at the technical level most people on here obviously are. I can, however, follow clear instructions. :-)

  • When I opt to "download this as a file" from my email account, Firefox defaults to notepad to open the file. How can I change the default to MS Word?

    Question
    When I opt to "download this as a file" from my email account, Firefox defaults to notepad to open the file. How can I change the default to MS Word?

    Is FF downloading the file as a .txt file? If so, go to "Folder Options" in the windows control panel. Click on the "File Types" tab. Scroll down until you reach the TXT file extension. Look to see what that extension opens with (lower part of panel). It probably shows notepad. Click on the <Change> button. Scroll down until you find "Microsoft Word." Select it and click the <OK> button. That should show the TXT extension is now associated with Microsoft Word. Click the <Close> button at the bottom of the panel.
    If FF is downloading the file as any other type, use the same process as above except look for the corresponding extension instead. If the extension is not listed click on the <New> button and create an association using the extension in the file name and then associate it with MS Word.

  • A few months ago, my G5 started up with the address book and mail opened at startup. They are not in startup items, and I cannot get this to stop. Any suggestions?

    A few months ago, my power mac G5 began starting up with the address book and mail already open on the desk top.
    Neither of these is in my startup items, so I am at a loss as to stop this behavior.
    Any suggestions?

    Are they in Login items under System Preferences/Users/Login Items?
    In the Dock, right click the Address Book and Mail icons, select Options, and make sure "Open at Login" is not selected.

  • I am trying to set up e-mail on a second user account but mail preferences is grayed out.  I have looked at some posts which indicate it could be corrupt file and say to deletee .plist but I cannot find that at all.  Any suggestions?

    I am trying to set up a Mail account for a second user.  I have made the user account but when I try to set up Mail, it fails as if the password or e-mail is incorrect but I know it is correct.  When I try to go to Mail preferences, it is grayed out.  Any suggestions?

    1. If you haven't tried this already, just delete the user account entirely, and then try setting it up again.
    2. To find the permissions file:
         a. hold down the option key
         b. go to the Go menu in the finder
         c. scroll down to Library and open it
         d. in Library, go to Containers/com.apple.mail/Data/Library/Preferences
         e. drag it to the trash and restart.
    3. if that doesn't work, go to Applications/Utilities/Keychain Access. In the Keychain Access menu, do Keychain First Aid, and repair.
    This should keep you busy for a while.

    How to you finf your downloads with this new )to me) web Page

    You don't find it on here, if the film is still in your country's iTunes store and if you are in a country where films can be redownloaded (and if the studio allows redownloading) then you should be able to redownload it via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your computer's iTunes
    If you can't redownload it then have you got a copy of it on your backup of your downloads ?

  • I am trying to login to itunes for the first time, and am told to open an itunes tag in my toolbar. i cannot find this at all! any answers please.

    I have just downloaded itunes, and am trying to buy a disc through them, but whenever I try to log on, I am told that firefox does not recognise itunes, and therefore I cannot buy my disc.
    Can anyone help please?

    Delete the apps that have a different Apple ID and re-download/re-purchase them using yours.
    Apps are forever tied to the Apple ID used to obtain them.
    To updatethose apps, the same Apple ID & password must be used.

  • Can I please communicate with a human being in New Delhi, India to set up the CC ASAP at my film school? Give me a working phone number in reply. I cannot do this on the web site.

    The numbers listed at adobe.com/in are both completely non-functional. I have a number of questions to ask before we subscribe to the CC for multiple users for our educational institution - among them ways to pay. I cannot get in touch with a real person on line or off line... can someone in sales in New Delhi or Noida contact me at [email protected]?

  • If I attach a file to an email using Firefox it is received jumbled up but not so if I send the same file with Safari

    By jumbled I mean letters, symbols, punctuation marks etc. Total nonsense. If I scan a document then e.mail it using Firefox as my browser, when opened it is a jumble. If I take that same scanned document and e.mail it out using Safari it opens up completely legible. This is new stuff only since today. Heretofore Firefox has been terrific.

    In Mail's menu, go to Edit > Attachments > Always send windows-friendly attachments and click it.
    Attachments may appear embedded in the email on your end, but should appear as standard Windows attachments on the recipient's end.

  • Error: Cannot find or create the font '0, Bold'...

    I get this error when I try to open a .pdf file that someone sent to me. "Cannot find or create the font '0, Bold'. Some characters may not display or print correctly."
    I use gmail and can view the file but as soon as I save it or try to print it and adobe reader opens the file I can't see the any of the letters just lines of dots where the text is supposed to be.
    I did a quick search to see if there was already something in the forums or on the web but didn't find anything right away. I would like to print the file so any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

    Sounds like the file is corrupt. Try contacting the file's creator.

  • Thanks for the Firefox 4 upgrade. Here is my concern - Previously, the "Check for updates" option is found under the Help menu. In Firefox 4, I cannot find this option; how will we be able to check if there are available updates?

    Previously, the "Check for updates" option is found under the Help menu. In Firefox 4, I cannot find this option; how will we be able to check if there are available updates?
    Can this new version update itself automatically? How do I set this option?

    Why do developers move stuff just to move it?

    Microsoft Office 2011 - Has anyone downloaded this and is it useful? More importantly I cannot find it in the App Store.

    Hello,
    There are some Microsoft product like Windows Phone 7 Connector on the Mac App Store but for the moment Office is not there.
    In an interview last year Microsoft’s Amanda Lefebvre told Mobilized : “It’s something we are looking at”.

    If you have applications like iWork or the free OpenOffice (http://www.openoffice.org/) you will be able to read files created by Microsoft Office.

  • I have replaced my faulty hard drive on my macbook air 1.1 and need to reinstall the original software where can in find this on the apple web site?

    I have replaced my faulty hard drive on my macbook air 1.1 with a new ssd, I need to reinstall the original software,where can I find this on the apple site?

    There is no download for the software.  The factory software that you are looking for is called ilife.  It is all of the software that would have came preinstalled with your mac on your original hard drive when you first bought it.  You will have to get new software on your computer.  This might actually be a great opurtunity to upgrade to Lions.  Search the Lions software in the mac store and it will come up.  Click add to cart and check out.  The price for it is $20.  I defientely recomend Lions, it has alot of new great features.  Then wate for the install disk to come in the mail.  when it come just pop it in and follow the step by step instructions.  If you dont want to upgrade to lions however you can download the ilife package from apple.com for a small price.  Hope this helps.

  • I have been using Internet Explorer and have now downloaded Firefox but cannot find my imported favourites. Where can I find them?

    I have now downloaded Firefox as my default browser and when downloading I asked for my favourites from Internet Explorer to be exported to Firefox. I cannot find anywhere on the Firefox site that allows me to open my favourites. Can you please advise.

    As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?
