"Open links from applications" in Safari 5

Preferences > General > "Open links from applications"
This has been removed in Safari 5, so when I open, say, 10 weblocs I keep in a folder in the Finder, I now get 10 separate windows.
1) ***, Apple?!?
2) Any suggestions for a hack to fix this stupid oversight?
I could probably change Preferences > Tabs > Open pages in tabs instead of windows (which I currently have set to "Never" because it overrides keystroke+click for telling Safari how to open a link) and see what that does, but I like that preference the way it is.

Hi,
     Is there any workaround for this issue. Because when multiple window gets spanned we are getting confused. Or let us know if there is any way to open the download prompt alone instead of opening up with the new window. One more thing to note is once the download is complete the new window also doesn't closes automatically which needs to be closed manually. This makes very annoying. Kindly let us know how to prevent the new empty window from opening.
Vijay.

  • Open links from applications in new tabs

    I want to make it so that when I click a link in, for example, Mail, instead of opening in a new window in Safari, it opens as a new tab in the most recently used Safari window. Is this possible, either with settings, or with a 3rd party application?
    Thanks so much,
    David

    Hi David
    Go to Safari Preferences>General. At the bottom you'll see an option for opening in a tab. Makes sure Tabs are enabled in your Tab panel.

  • Opening links from safari

    Whenever i try to open a link to a document in Safari it downloads as an .eml file and when i open it, it opens in mail. How can i fix this, so it automatically downloads as an .mht file so it will open in word?

    I suggest you to file a bug report regarding this issue: https://bugreport.apple.com/
    I can confirm that Safari has serious issues with opening links from other applications. For example Content Guide links in Quicktime Player opens empty windows.

  • I can no longer open links from my email account into safari, how can I fix this?

    I can no longer open links from my email account into safari, on my iphone 4.

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPhone?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds).

  • Safari not opening in landscape mode when opening links from mail

    Hello,
    Since the update to iOS8 I experience following: when using my iphone in landscape mode, opening links from the default mail app doesn't open Safari in landscape mode. I have to manually tilt the phone to portrait mode and back to get landscape mode.
    When opening Safari manually in landscape mode, it works fine.
    Anybody else experiencing this issue?

    Hey there streatuac,
    It sounds like the Safari app is not automatically switching to landscape when you open a link from the mail app on your phone. I would start by closing all the running apps on your phone first:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    When you have done that restart the device and test the issue again:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,

  • Firefox 3.6.15 on OSX 10.6.6 no longer opens links from Mail; Safari and Chrome will

    Sometime around version 3.6.12 firefox, when set as the default browser, won't open links from Mac Mail. The firefox window will come to the front, but the link won't open. If I set Safari or Chrome as the default browser, they work.

    The following worked for me:
    http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/684867
    "Problem: I had the same problem but with mac osx 10.5.8, Firefox 3.6.6 sometimes prints and sometimes does not, but the preview was always blank and I could not save to pdf file.
    Solution: I downloaded Firefox 3.5.10, installed it on my desktop and opened it, tried print preview and it worked, quit Firefox 3.5.10 and ran 3.6.6 and voila! print preview is working fine and I can save to pdf fine.
    I guess running 3.5.10 fixes the profile in a certain way. I have no idea how that happened but it worked."

  • Not opening links from mail - firefox turns grey at bottom

    firefox usually opens links from "mail" in a new tab. Sometimes
    firefox greys out and will not allow links to open. Clearing history
    or restarting firefox solves the problem somettimes. Multiple restarts
    may be required.

  • Firefox does not open links from google

    I am using Firefox 12 on a Mac. I am not able to open links from Google, e.g. google maps, google groups. Also google maps does not show up on other websites. Safari does this all.
    I have disabled all add-ons and went into the safe mode of Firefox. No improvement. I can't open google maps or google groups. Apart from this, other webpages don't cause a problem.
    What is going on?

    Have a look and see if SPDY is enabled. Enter about:config in the address window and spdy in the search window. If "network.http.spdy.enabled" is true, double click on the entry to disable it.

  • I cannot open links from my Yahoo or Google email accounts

    When I try to open links from my Yahoo! e-mail or even Google mail, the links will not open. I get a message saying  "Safari can't open the page". This happens repeatedly! Any other websites open are fine and working.
    I know this is another subject, so you don't have o answer if you don't want to.  Can you tell me where the Screen Caption button is or how I can take a screen pic?
    Thank you for your assistance.

  • Can't open nautilus from applications menu

    I find that I can't open nautilus from applications menu any more.
    In the terminal, it won't open nautilus when running 'nautilus' without specifying a location or --new-window option.
    I've checked and tried to modify /usr/share/applications/org.gnome.Nautilus.desktop and /usr/share/applications/nautilus-classic.desktop, but it didn't work.
    The values of Exec option in the two files are as follows:
    /usr/share/applications/org.gnome.Nautilus.desktop: Exec=nautilus --new-window %U
    /usr/share/applications/nautilus-classic.desktop:  Exec=nautilus --no-default-window --force-desktop
    Also, I have tried to reinstall nautilus. I didn't work, either.
    Any one can help?

    Are you using gnome classic session? Or have you enabled desktop icons?
    Sounds like the nautilus-classic.desktop could be getting launched  during gnome-session startup, which should happen in both of the cases above.
    According to my testing, starting nautilus with 'nautilus --no-default-window --force-desktop' causes the exact behavior you're describing.
    I'm using standard gnome without desktop icons, and I don't have any issues with nautilus, so disabling them would probably help, although that could be a drag if you really want desktop icons.
    I still don't understand why the org.gnome.Nautilus.desktop wouldn't work though, since it has the --new-window flag. Apparently you can't even launch a new window via the right click menu item.
    This could happen if gnome-shell recognizes the nautilus-classic.desktop as nautilus, and starts using it's .desktop file instead when you try to launch a new window.
    If so you could probably fix this from the .desktop file somehow. I might be able to look into it later..
    I'm also using standard gnome, and I have enabled desktop icons.
    Disabling desktop icons makes it work.
    Thanks!
    I once tried to modify nautilus-classic.desktop to Exec=natilus --new-window, but it didn't help.

    Hi,
    Have you tried the hyperlinks in other Office programs like Outlook and PowerPoint? Do they work well?
    You may need to run the Fix it in this kb below:

    You can also try the steps in the section "Let me fix it myself". Although this kb is written for Outlook, it may help in your scenario as well.

  • Firefox won't open links from Skype?

    Windows 8.1 Pro (x64), Skype is the latest version for desktop 6.10.0.104, Firefox is the latest version (of writing this question) - 25 Stable.
    When I click on link in Skype nothing happens! Firefox is set as default browser for all the supported file types. If I change the default browser to IE 11 and click on Skype link, the link opens in IE without a problem.
    Setting back defaults for Firefox doesn't help. I tried reinstalling both Firefox and Skype without success.
    Any ideas? It's very unpractical to copy every link and paste it.

    Hello,
    Can you please confirm that the problem you are facing is different from the one reported earlier - [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/961242 Firefox not opening links from Skype].
    Or is the issue that there is no activity when you click on a link from Skype. Do other links (say in Outlook / Word) open Firefox when you click them? We want to narrow this down to see if this is a Skype specific issue.
    Thank you
