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?
Steve

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.

    Your Settings app is crashing. Sometimes, the only way to fix this is by restoring the iOS software but hopefully it will not come to that.
    1. Quit the app completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    2. Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    3. You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.

  • HTML Mails from Safari using Mailing List from Excel sent by Mac Mail

    Hi.... Anybody got any ideas how I can use VCards or Excel as a database to send HTML mails from Mac Mail without having to add the names into my personal address book as I do not want client contacts in with my contacts... any ideas ? Thanks....

    This should not occur.
    As an experiment, I have some old saved received messages in a user created mailbox that were addressed to an old email account/address that was cancelled. When selecting Reply for any of these messages, my default Send New Mail from account is chosen as the sending email account/address.
    When doing the same for any messages located in a user created mailbox that were addressed to an existing valid email account/address that is not my default Sent New Mail from account selection, the account/email address the message was addressed to is the account chosen as the sending email account/address.
    I believe there is some minor corruption to your Mail.app preference file. Let me know if you need the instructions for targeting the preference file which will require re-entering all email account information.

  • How to email a "link" from Safari?

    Since upgrading to Lion I can't figure out how to send a "link" from a Safari page in Apple's Mail. Example: I am surfing "MacSurfer" and I click on a link to read it. I then decide to email the link to my daughter. I used to be able to open Mail and drag the URL into the body of the email. Now, in Lion, the URL of the link just says "Go To This Address". I can't seem to have both apps (Safari and Mail) open at the same time on my desktop. And what's up with the  "Go To This Address" thing in the URL so often?
    I have both Mail and Safari each set up as "Full Screen" so they will be permanently stuck on a desktop in Mission Control. Could this have something to do with it?
    I'm also running into another issue in Safari. If I click on a link and a new page opens many times there are no "traffic lights" (red, yellow, green in upper left of page) and the "Back" arrow is greyed out. Also, the contextual menu does not offer to go back. The only way to close the page is to quit, which causes me to close Safari all together.
    What am I missing?
    And while I'm on my ***** fest here…I'm not thrilled with this new discussion board either. It wasn't broke, so why "fix" it? (Maybe I'm just getting old and don't adapt to change so well.) OK, I feel better now!

    Can someone help?
    In Safari File: Mail:Link o This Page has stopped working on my macbook pro running Lion-- all of a sudden I am seeing this error message when I want mail a website link to someone:
    An email message can’t be created to send the link because Safari can’t find an email application.
    This message does not show when I click on a hyperlink within the body of a webpage viewed in Safari.
    This does not happen in Firefox. The File: Mail Link works just fine. Maybe I should stop using Safari but I like it!!!
    I checked all of the system preferences suggested in various support documents. Did I miss something?

  • When emailing a photo from the updated iPhoto, how do I find the CC and BCC button, and how do I send to a group from my address book?

    when emailing a photo from the updated iPhoto, how do I find the CC and BCC button, and how do I send to a group from my address book?

    The email function from iPhoto is pretty basic. The only Bcc available is to yourself (in iPhoto > Preferences > Advanced), cc: does not appear to be available at all, and it does not appear you can email to a group.
    You can change this by going to iPhoto > Preferences > General and next to where it says Email photos using: select Mail. If you do this you have all the options available in Mail including Cc: and Bcc: and the ability to drag a group from Address Book into the mail addresses.
    Best of luck.

  • Dragging url from Safari to Mail creates web shortcut attachment

    I was accustomed to dragging the url from Safari's address bar into an open mail and getting a page title and url text inserted.
    This was incredibly useful for sending links of pages to mailing lists in response to questions.
    Now in Leopard, dragging the url from Safari's address bar to an open mail creates a web shortcut attachment.
    I can see this might be useful , but in a plain text email to a mailing list it's completely useless as it gets stripped my the mailing list software.
    now I have to copy and paste the url - a lot more effort and I don't get the page title anymore that way.
    Please tell me there's a hidden preference setting that can let me have the old way back...
    this tiny little thing is marring my otherwise happy upgrade to 10.5
    I just checked this action in my virgin Tiger install on my Mac Mini and dragging from Safari to Mail, gets a plain text url, but no page title, so maybe I had some helper or other adding that little bit...
    anyway, I want to drag urls to mail and get text not attachments - can anyone help me?
    thanks

    I'm used to doing command-L to select the address bar, so to do command-L, command-C, click in the mail message, and hit command-V doesn't seem like much work. But that's me. I also found that if I drag a URL from the address bar it does put the link in without a web shortcut. But if I wanted to send a link in an email, I'd just hit shift-command-i, which opens a new mail with the link in it.
    Just some thoughts....

  • Cannot view webpages from internet using windows server 2012.

    I can ping public websites, such as google.com etc

    No windows update are taking place either.

    Hi,
    Or please disable all your firewall and AV soft, as far as in know, some AV soft can block some “unsafe” website URL, or disable the IE ESC.

  • Annoying window switch in Mail Using Safari's "Mail Link to This Page..."

    Anyone else have the annoying problem where they use Safari's "Mail Link to This Page", and it opens a New Mail Composer Window, but then opens Mail's main window right over it, forcing you to switch back to the Composer window?
    Only seems to happen when Mail has NOT been running. The main Mail window seems to be programmed to take centre stage when it's opened. Very annoying bug!!

    I have Eudora as my default Mailer in Leopard and don't get that, jfyi.

  • Some of my Apps don't connect to the internet. For example, NY Times Web App, says it can't connect. But when I access it from Safari it does. I have a number of Apps like this. I've removed and reinstalled and it doesn't help. Please help!

    Some of my Apps don't connect to the internet. For example, NY Times Web App, says it can't connect. But when I access it from Safari it does (it is a web site and the App just accesses it form the desktop of the IPAD). I have a number of Apps like this. I've removed and reinstalled and it doesn't help. Please help!
    Thank you.

    On the wireless networks that your Mac has had trouble connecting to, do you know which Wireless Security type (WEP, WPA, or WPA2) is being used?
    If it is WEP, one of the problems is that the actual standard relies on a 10 character HEX key for 40bit WEP and a 26 character HEX key for 128bit WEP.   In order to make things easier, vendors use certain algorithms to convert simple alphanumeric passwords (or passphrases) into HEX keys, thus enabling the use of simple easy to remember WEP password rather than lengthy HEX keys. The problem is that different vendors use different algorithms to generate the HEX key and therefore a ASCII password on an AEBS will be hashed differently on a non-Apple client and vice versa.   You may find the following Apple Support article helpful.

  • When emailing a group from address book it opens individual emails....

    When emailing a group from address book it opens individual emails for each name rather than one email with all email addresses listed. Have I set things up wrongly or is there something I can do to have a single email sent to multiple addressees via Address Book?

    Hello,
    When addressing an email for this group, are you
    entering only the name of the Group as the address?
    More info, please.
    Ernie
    Thanks for your reply.
    Yes, it works directly in Mail - type in group name and all's well and lovely - but if I'm in Address Book and want to email a group it opens numerous emails. THere seems to be no way of opening Mail from Address Book and go straight to emailing a group.

  • I reset a Linksys extender, when I try to navigate Safari using The Linksys network, a Box askin for username And password pops out. What is this about?

    I reset a Linksys extender, when I try to navigate Safari using The Linksys network, a Box askin for username And password pops out. What is this about?

    Ask Linksys. If you reset the extender it presumably lost the username and password it was supposed to service.  I'd just supply the name and password and move on.
