When I click links in emails, it will not open the link in my default browser (Firefox)

Have worked through all of the suggestions here and still not working : https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/hyperlinks-in-messages-not-working?esab=a&as=aaq
Any ideas?
Thanks

hi, i did what matt suggested and started my mac in safe mode....the links worked well in safe mode....when i checked them after booting up normally, the links worked for a time, not long, and now they no longer work
what is happening with me, when i click on a link in tb, firefox will open to the proper link, however, if firefox is already open the link will just bring up the firefox browser and not the link....i have to close firefox and then click on the link and firefox will then open to the proper window......
any help would be appreciated
this seemed to happen right after i installed the OS bash update.

  • When I click on a bookmark, it will not open in a new tab, but I have this option checked?

    I have two issues since upgrading to FF4. The first issue is, when I click on a bookmark it will not automatically open in a new tab. I do have this option checked in my preferences, but it will not work. The second issue is when I search in the Google box, I cannot click on the auto search option.

    Bookmarks always open in the current tab unless you middle-click or use Ctrl + left-click to open the bookmarks in a new tab just like you do with other links.
    There are extensions that can change that behavior.

  • Why do email hyperlinks open a new ff browser, but will not open the link?

    '''''''''XPSP3 & FF3.6 & Outlook2003''''''''' : When I click on a hyperlink in outlook, a fresh occurence of ff opens (even though ff is already open) but the link will not open. This used to work before I upgraded to ff4.0, so I rolled back to 3.6 and still have the same problem. All the file type suggestions have been executed, but still no success. Can anyone offer any help?

    The '''SearchToolbar/1.2''' that messed with your UserAgent might be the cause of that problem. Try some troubleshooting.
    Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode? <br />

    This problem start in my Mozilla when I update it to 31 version. Now I use 33.1 version

    Пишу я же по родному.
    Проблема в том, что в Мозиле не работает функция "Открыть" закладку. В меню закладок выбираю нужную закладку, кликаю левой кнопкой сворачивается меню закладка не открывается. Чтобы открыть закладку мне необходимо правой кнопкой мыши выбрать "Открыть в новой вкладке" и только тогда открывается закладка. Кроме того, если правой кнопкой выбрать опцию "Открыть", то закладка также НЕ открывается. Проблемы начались с 31 версии Мозилы.

  • When i click on a bookmark, it will not open in a new tab

    I just got a Macbook Pro and installed Firefox. On a PC, whenever I clicked on a bookmark, it opened in a new tab. The same settings do not work on a Mac. The bookmark opens in the same tab I was on. Help please

    Hello,
    My understanding is that the default action for left clicking a bookmark is to open in the current tab. If you want to open in a new tab, the middle click button is usually the way to do it.
    Alternatively, you can install the following extension which will force all bookmarks to open in a new tab:
    * https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/open-bookmarks-in-new-tab/
    Or this extension which will provide more options for tabs (including what you want):

  • Additional tab will not open for links

    previously i have been able to click on a link, and the link would open in a new window or tab. but now whenever i try to open a link through a website, it will not open the link in a new window or new tab. how can i fix this?

    Hi ArletteGH, I'm not sure which one of these is the better description of your issue:
    If you Ctrl+click or middle-click a link:
    * Firefox creates a new tab, loads the link in that tab, but the tab stays in the background rather than being made active (default behavior)
    * Firefox creates a new tab, but doesn't actually fetch the page until you make the tab active
    * Firefox creates a new tab, but the tab and address bar stay blank, as though the address never got transferred to the page
    Are any of those close to describing your problem?

  • My outlook will not open yet all other microsoft packages will.  When I click on the icon, the 'o' logo will come up for a split second but will not open the package - need to receive emails asap!

    You're very welcome!
    I meant holding the "option" (or "alt") key on your keyboard as you click the Outlook icon on the Dock, and continuing to hold it until you see the Microsoft Database Utility come up. Alternatively, you can open the utility by navigating to Applications/Microsoft Office 2011/Office and then double-clicking the Microsoft Database Utility app.
    When you rebuild your database using that program, a backup copy of your original database (containing your account info, contacts, mail, calendars, etc) will be created. As a security precaution, you should also ensure you have a backup of your database (which you can find by going to Documents/Microsoft User Data/Office 2011 Identities/ and copying the contents of that folder onto an external drive).

  • My mum has an iPad 1, the email programme will not open properly.  If you click on the icon it opens only for a few seconds but then shuts.  In that few seconds you cant select anything that you see on screen.  Any ideas? Thanks

    If the Reset Ian mentioned doesn't work...
    Shut down and restart the Mail app...
    - From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
    - Tap and hold any icon in this list until they wiggle
    - Press the red to delete the Mail app from this list.
    - Press the home button twice when done.
    - Restart the Mail app

  • I am trying to buy an app (Aperture). I don't see a "buy" icon in the app store. If I go to Apple site, there is a buy icon but when I click it, I get a dialogue box saying the link needs to be opened with an application. Please help. Thanks.

    Hi ...
    Installing the OS X Lion Update 10.7.3 (Client Combo) will reinstall the App Store for you.
    Restart your Mac after the combo is installed then try purchasing Aperture.

    If third-party software called "Air Display" is installed, remove it according to the developer's instructions, then reboot. Back up all data before making any changes.

  • H8-1237c will not open web links/connection issues.

    Hello,
    I have a new HP H8-1237c with Windows 7 64bit.  Verizon dsl with a Westell Versalink 327 modem and an Apple Airport Extreme.
    Internet Explorer 9 will open the standard homepage, but will not open any links, or will sporadically open a few.  It will connect to google.com when I type that in the address bar, but not when I try to click on any search results.  
    Verizon tech support had me reset IE9 and it got hung up.  We restated the system in safe mode with networking and were able to ping google with good results.  Most links opened.
    Upon restarting the system in standard mode, the links are not working again,  He suggested HP support.
    I have not had any previous problems.  My laptop and ipads/touchpad all connect normally. 
    Suggestions?  Thanks in advance.

    Mazz520, welcome to the forum.
    I suggest trying Firefox or Chrome to see if either of them works properly.  If they do, it is a problem with IE9 settings.  If they don't, it is most likely your ISP/Network settings.

  • Email attachments will not open

    Running Windows XP on a Dell Inspiron. Email attachments will not open on any emails, they will open in IE. In the past it would only happen on once in a while but then it would just be a gray box where a pic would be. Now no attachments will open.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == End op April 2010

    Check the image exceptions: Tools > Options > Content: Load Images: Exceptions - See [[Options window - Content panel]]
    A way to see which images are blocked is to click the favicon (''Site Identification'' icon) on the left side of the location bar and click the "More Information" button.
    This will open the Security tab of the ''Page Info'' window (also accessible via Tools > Page Info).
    Go to the ''Media'' tab of that Page Info window.
    Select the first image and scroll down though the list with the Down arrow.
    If an image is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box ''Block Images from...'' then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

  • Since updating to iOS 6.0.1, email app will not open and other problems.

    Help! Since updating my phone to iOS 6.0.1, my email app will not open, my email/contacts/calendar settings will not open, my touchscreen is unresponsive, my battery is draining in two hours time, and my delete button only works one letter at a time (can't hold down to delete easily). I've done a soft reset and I've restored twice to no avail. This is a MAJOR problem! I'm not wanting to pay for the apple care since this may result in upgrading to the iPhone 5 (last option) and the closest apple store is an hour and a half from me.

    This seems to be a common problem.
    I am suffering too!
    It would seem to be very shoddy from apple to allow such problems.
    Not the first issue since upgrade to iOS 6.....think home button problems.
    Has anybody got news of a fix?
