Since upgrading to FF5, "mailto" links no longer work - my "tools/options/applications/mailto" is set to gmail.

Since upgrading to FF5, "mailto" links no longer work - my "tools/options/applications/mailto" is set to gmail.
Previously, when I clicked onto an email link, my gmail would open up.
Now, nothing happens.

Please do the following.<br><br>
#Open Microsoft Internet Explorer and then click '''Tools '''and go to '''Internet Options'''.<br><br>
#Click the ''Programs ''tab and where you see "Email", choose your email client.<br><br>
#Remove the checkmark from where it says "''Tell me if Internet Explorer is not the default browser''" in the same menu.<br><br>
#Click Apply/OK and close Internet Explorer.<br><br>
#Next, start Firefox and click the orange Firefox button, go to '''Options '''| '''Options '''| '''Advanced'''.<br><br>
#In the '''General '''tab, '''System Defaults''' at the bottom, checkmark the option: "'''Always check to see if Firefox is the default browser on startup'''" and then click the "''Check Now''" button.<br><br>
#Click OK, close Firefox and then restart it again.
You should now have a mailto: option in the Applications panel.

  • Since upgrading to ios5 spell check no longer works on my iPad 2

    I have tried turning spell check off and on again and rebooting the iPad but that did not help, what am I supposed to do? Reinstall ios5 because it took me 8 hours the first time round I'm not going through that again.

    I have not used the Support Communities before... meaning we pay our med care to answer Apple questions? And where is that answer or at least the... "we are working on it... " comment from Apple. The first post is OCTOBER how is that possible?? Did you see the last quarter Apple profits?
    Anyway I too have that problem... where is the red line? Maybe the promotion of writing errors and dumbing us down is... the goal? Obviously with the iPad "keyboard" the redline is needed and how was it left out in the first place?? Hope there is not some simple tick we are all missing... .

  • Upgraded to CS3 and Flash no longer works in browsers

    Since upgrading to CS3 my Flash no longer works in my top
    table. Exact same files worked fine in CS and CS2 and whatever it
    was before CS. Any Flash that is in the top table on any of my
    pages doesn't appear.
    Now it doesn't appear in IE or Firefox. Can see it fine if I
    "preview in browser" but when uploaded to site can't view at all.
    Any solutions? Please reply to [email protected]
    Thanks.

    Ok got this working. Went into my code and deleted everything
    from the javascript tag to the closing script tag (see below).
    Reinserted my SWF file and it works like a charm.

  • I have been using a WD Passport with Time Machine on my iMac.  Since I upgraded to Mavericks, the backup no longer works.  What do I need to do?

    I have been using a WD Passport with Time Machine on my iMac.  Since I upgraded to Mavericks, the backup no longer works.  What do I need to do?
    I assume that upgrading the WD SmartWare is irrelevant as it is not being used.  Should I upgrade just as a precaution?
    One complication is that I have renamed my user since the last time I backed up.

    the problem is with the WD Passport drives.   I also have one, and since upgrading to 10.9 I can no longer use mine either.  See if this solution works for you: https://discussions.apple.com/message/23943103#23943103

  • Mailto: link no longer works

    After working tfor the years the code for adding a email link no longer works. What's going on? For example this piece of code worked fine for years <a href="mailto:[email protected]">Email</a>. Now when I try to use the link my email programs opens up fine but in the place where the email address goes it includes the the full mailto:[email protected] where the email address goes rather than just the email address.

    Mailto links are inherently unreliable for several reasons:
    The end user must have an mail client like Outlook installed on their device.  Most webmail users don't  need an email client anymore preferring to log-in to their accounts with a browser.   If your end user has no email client, nothing will happen when they click the mailto link.
    Spam.  Email links are a neon sign for robot email harvesters who will bombard your inbox with unwanted spam mail.
    People who use computers in public libraries, schools or community centers won't be able to use your mailto links.
    For best results, use an HTML contact form with a server-side script that processes form data and sends it to your email address.  Preferably a script that is secure and has built in spam prevention.

  • Since upgrading to FF5, i get the following xml error on local development server (IIS 7 Windows 7): XML Parsing Error: no element found, Line Number 1, Column 1. The pages display fine when uploaded to hosting server. How do i resolve it

    All aspx pages running locally via IIS or Visual studio inbuilt server can not be displayed in FF5. This problem has only occured since upgrading to FF5. The same sites/code worked fine with the previous version of FF.
    When uploaded onto a hosting server the pages display fine. Pages all display ok on local IIS on IE, chrome, opera etc.
    I do go through a proxy server, but so do the other browsers.
    All this means i can't develop locally on FF. Help please!

    Maybe your application doesn't support "Send NTLMv2 response only. Refuse LM & NTLM".

  • Why do podcast album view links no longer work in iTunes 11?

    I've recently updated to iTunes 11, and now the podcasts I have that contain links no longer work. What can I do?

    Duplicate your copy of iTunes 10.x before upgrading to iTunes 11 (or restore it from a backup) and use iTunes 10.x to listen to (and in particular access the links in) podcasts. Further, file a bug with Apple that these links don't work when the album art is displayed in the album art mini-player.

  • Links no longer work after signing document

    Links no longer work after signing document - I have updated to latest version and run installation repair, is this a problem or is it supposed to do that?

    Hi;
    This question would be best asked in the Acrobat signatures Forums, it is related to using Adobe Acrobat/Reader and does not have anything to do with the online service, Adobe Fill & Sign.  Someone should be able to answer your question here: https://forums.adobe.com/community/acrobat/security_%26_digital_signatures

  • My Relative links no longer work in Captivate 7

    My Relative links no longer work in Captivate 7. They worked in the 5.5 versions of the exact same lessons. But they do not work after saving and re-publishing in Captivate 7. What's up with that? Any suggestions?
    Just found out from Adobe it's a reported bug that is not yet resolved...

  • Google Application Links No Longer Work in Safari

    Hello,
    It seems something is up. Google application and profile links no longer work in Safari 7.0. I downloaded Chrome for OS X and they work perfectly fine in that. So is it Google trying to gain more share of the browser market by modifying there code or is it a Safari update that recently broke the functionality? All I know is I have had to download a different browser to get my google mail working.
    If you want to test, go to your gmail and try to click the google applications icon near the top right. Nothing will happen in the latest Safari. Now try it again in Chrome and guess what! This used to work perfectly. More importantly is the profile icon (far top right, usually your picture) which allows you to login/logout/switch google mail accounts also will not work at all which makes it impossible to use this with Safari.
    Apple you may want to track down what changed as this will impact your browser's market share if its is not fixed asap. I will come back and try Safari again in a week and see if they have fixed anything. For now, sadly its off to Chrome for me.
    If you would like me to provide any diagnostic information I am more than happy to assist in this matter.

    Hilarious,
    Its a Safari bug. Go fullscreen and the icons work fine. Now go back to non-fullscreen and they dont work.
    Apple..... ho..... Apple?????
    Time for a fix......

  • Hot links no longer work. When I click on them nothing at all happens. What do I do?

    Hot links no longer work. When I click on them, nothing at all happens. what do I do to fix this problem?

    That is just a link to what is already on this website. I don't know what any of that stuff MEANS. Tell me what to click on in my computer, if you know. I THINK it has Windows 8.1 but don't know how to tell. I was nagged into installing 8.1 and didn't like it and tried to uninstall it but I think it is still there. The hyperlinks were still working long after that. Now, suddenly, google chrome doesn't work, hyperlinks in emails (only) don't work. I don't know how to "reset" anything. This was working fine; now it isn't. I didn't do anything different, and every time I get a message it directs me to click on a hot link and my problem is that hotlinks in my e-mails are NOT WORKING!!! HELP!!!
