Unable to mail webpages from Safari

I am unable to email "links to" or "contents of page" from safari I get the following message:
This issue was carried over from Leopard and is the same in Snow Leopard.
Any suggestions? And yes mail is installed.

Hi Jeff
The disconnect is caused by a misread of the setting in Mail preferences.
Try this: open Mail and go to Mail preferences>General panel. At the top, select an default email reader option other than Mail (it doesn't matter what you select), then close the panel. Now reopen the same General panel and reselect Mail as your default email reader. Close the panel, restart Safari and try the Command/I or Command/Shift/I for sending a web page, or related link.

Unable to send mail link from Safari

After updating to Yosemite, I am unable to email a link from Safari's toolbar. The same thing happens with Share, I see "no service". Can anybody assist?

This seems to be linked to a bug. We are all having issues and it seems linked to the no widgets problem also.
Alot of us have no built in widgets along with the Social Widget not working & Social Sharing including Email not working in Safari.
We found a manual fix for the widgets as seen on page 2 in this post.
How to get widgets in OS X notification center?
But we need Apple to patch the Social Widget and Social/Email Sharing in Safari as it worked in the Beta but not in the Final Release for most people including myself.

Problems mailing pages from Safari

At one time I was able to mail web pages or links from Safari with Mountain Lion, but now it has stopped working. The first time I try to mail a page, I'll get a new mail window open (and probably not coincidentally, a second instance of the Mail icon in the dock) but it presents me with a "Loading..." message that lasts until I quit it.
If I simply close that mail window, any other pages that I try to mail will not even open a new mail window until I force-quit the extra Mail app from the dock.
Anyone else seen anything like this, or have any ideas about what might be causing it or how to fix it?

Having two instances of Mail running is definitely not right. If the OS were functioning properly, it should not let more than one instance of Mail run in the same user account.
Restart your computer while at the same time holding down 'command-R' on the keyboard. When the Utilities window appears, choose 'Install OS X' from the menu. Your user data and apps will not be affected (just the system files get reinstalled), but do take the precaution of making proper backups before you do this.

Unable to load webpage in Safari that loads fine in Windows XP

I can not load a webpage in Safari that loads fine in Windows XP. Any suggestions?

Hi,
They may be doing some checking of the user agent information the web browser sends and handling Safari incorrectly. Try changing the user-agent to, say, Firefox 3.0.5 and see if you can then access the page.
To change the user agent, you need to enable the Develop menu. This can be done via the Advanced section of the Safari preferences. In the new menu that appears at the top of the screen, you can then select an alternate user agent.
This setting only lasts as long as the tab remains open, so everytime you open a new tab you will need to change that setting from the default.
If that does help, send feedback to the bank about their site not working correctly with Safari. The only browsers they recommend are Netscape 4.5 and IE 5.0 which are both about 10 years out of date

Unable to mail pictures from Camera

iPod 4G 64 GB latest OS version.
I take some snapshots and videos, select mail, interface appears, I fill out to To field, press SEND and no mail ever arrives. I am able to send mail from Safari or other (Opera...) with no problem. Any ideas, TIA

A reset:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
will result in loosing nothing.
- The second time I said reset I mad an error and meant restore (from backup and factory default/new iPod).
- A restore from backup will result in the iPod being like it was when the backup was made provided that all the apps and music that are on the iPod are also in your itunes library so these can be synced backed at the end of the restore.
- A restore to factory defaults/new iPod make it like a new iPod. You have to reload everything on your iPod.
Sorry for my confusion/ error.

Unable to sync bookmarks from Safari

I have been unable to sync my bookmarks to my iPad from my MacBook Pro. It does not work from either iTunes or iCloud. Why doesn't this work? Am I missing a step??
Thanks

If you export bookmarks from Safari to an html file, can you import them into Firefox using Import from the bookmark library window Import and Backup menu item?

Mail link from Safari freezes?

When attempting to "mail link to this page" from Safari the screen goes to gray, and refuses to respond. The only "fix" is to abandon the attempt. Why is this happening and is there a solution? It has happened on an increasing number of various sites.

HI and welcome to Apple Discussions...
Try deleting this file. com.apple.Safari.plist
/Users/YourName/Library/Preferences. Drag that file from the Preferences folder to the Trash, empty the Trash and restart your Mac.
If that doesn't help, post a crash log.
How to locate a crash log:
1. Open Finder.
2. Click "Go" in the menu, then select "Go to Folder".
3. Copy and paste this path into the Finder dialog: ~/Library/Logs/CrashReporter/
4. Click the Go button.
5. Finder opens the folder containing the crash log. Look for a the crash file with a date field that looks like the most recent.

When emailing a webpage from Safari using Mail, why is the page no longer rendered correctly?

This never used to happen
Previously (before Yosemite) when I was looking at a web page I wanted to share, I clicked on the email icon in Safari and a new Mail page opened with the web page I was looking at perfectly rendered. I added an address and emailed that page to the person I wanted to share with.
Currently, when I try to do the same thing, the mail message that gets copied over to Mail is a terrible, useless distortion of the original web page.
Anyone know what's going on here? Have you experienced this? Can I fix it?

Hi Wyodor,
Thanks for your reply.
I am sending the mail to a Gmail account, enabled displaying of HTML content. Even then the images don't show up.

Unable to open webpage in Safari, Firefox, Explorer, Camino, etc..

originally posted in the Safari forum, and someone suggested i post here also:
I'm almost at my wits end here.
first off here is the site I need to connect to:
www.eyemedvisioncare.com
not only this address but all pages connected to this URL do not load. The message I get is "Safari can’t open the page.
Safari could not open the page http://www.eyemedvisioncare.com/because the server stopped responding."
I've scoured this board to find similar problems. And I have and had followed all advice. Though the key difference between my problem and all others is that the page will not load in any other browser.
I'll run down the list of things I've tried.
Empty safari cache
Reset Safari
deleted prefs
checked firewall
reinstall Safari
archive and install system
clean install
I've also eliminated the router as a cause by directly connecting to the net from the modem.
i had been able to connect to the site in the recent past and had not changed a thing or installed anything. I thought a clean install would solve the problem but that's what drove me here. The office that uses this computer need to connect to 3-4 websites daily, that it, just a few sites and email. I cannot stand the thought of having to buy a PC just to connect to one website. I'd buy a new mac if i thought that would work but I've tried the site at home on 2 other computers with the same result. though i could connect to it from other offices and i'm sure readers and posters will be able to connect to it with no problems.
thanks in advance.
minor update:
i thought i'd try installing panther and deal with an older OS. Still no results with safari or even internet explorer. also tried explorer under VPC with no success.
someone suggested connecting with just the IP and that did not work either. I had a feeling when the site could not be pulled up with Firefox or Explorer that the problem might be somewhere else.

In Terminal, try:
curl http://www.eyemedvisioncare.com/
and see if it returns the page. If it does, then I think it may be something in the browsersniffer.js script that that site uses, http://www.eyemedvisioncare.com/resources/browsersniffer.js . If curl doesn't return anything, then it would probably be time to check routing as a culprit.

i haven't done anything in console. i don't really
understand that part of computing.
Console is not something you do anything in, it records what is going , where it logs errors, crashes et.. and where troubleshooting can start from.
I mentioned Looking to see if you had errors logged.
i can access any other site just fine.
The problem, again is Not with Safari or other Browsers, if other sites are fine.
i could understand that it may be the site if i
wasn't able to connect to it from other sources. the
computer are surely online or i would not be posting.
1) I would not be able to know which computer you are posting from.
2) Again I can connect to the site and browse, does not mean there is not something wrong with it.My console produce errors as I have mentioned.
also i just got off the phone with Apple Care tech
support. it seems that because i can access other
sites this is not an issue they will support. so,
That is is because the issue us NOT with Safari , rather your ISP, or your Network Settings.
that means that my problem as well as all similar
problems on this board will not get the attention
Apple Discussion is a User to User Forum, folks that reply to you
are not Apple employees, we all give the help we can & plenty of it.
they deserve. i love apple and this really was quite
a slap in the face. i'm still sorta in shock.
Good Luck.

Emptying mail boxes from Safari Mail

I keep getting message/s that I am nearly full regarding emails in my mail boxes. I continually clear these boxes from all my accounts so I do not know how to clear whatever messages are still there. Can you advise me how to fix this situation?

Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.

Can't e-mail from Safari's Reader after upgrading to 7.0

How come I can't e-mail directly from Safari's Reader after upgrading to 7.0? That was a great feature. Why did Apple disable this or is something wrong with my Safari browser?

Thanks. I didn't know the command but the old version had a menu that appeared at the bottom of the page.
