When I try to send a link to someone from Firefox it's defaulting to Outlook Express instead of Windows Live Mail which is what I use. How do I change that?

The question basically says it all.

    When I try to send a link via email a lot of incoherent information comes up in the To.... box and not in the body of the email or the Subject.

    Does this happen in Thunderbird? http://www.mozillamessaging.com/en-US/support/
    Or in a web based interface? Then check whether same happens in another browser to see whether that's a browser or website issue.

    when I try and send a link from mail it says I must re-install my OS in my 2012 Mac Air

    Typing in additional text seems to get the job done.  This seems to be a feature of the latest IOS update, I have never had the problem before the last update.
    I use the box with the arrow just to the left of the URL block at the top of the page to send myself links to pages of interest.  Adding the extra text seems like a pointless step, but it does work.
    Thanks.

    It sounds like you may have multiple problems, but none of them are likely to be caused by malware.
    First, the internet-related issues may be related to adware or a network compromise. I tend to lean more towards the latter, based on your description of the problem. See:
    http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/baddns.php
    http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/hackedrouter.php
    If investigation shows that this is not a network-specific issue, then it's probably adware. See my Adware Removal Guide for help finding and removing it. Note that you mention AdBlock as if it should have prevented this, but it's important to understand that ad blockers do not protect you against adware in any way. Neither would any kind of anti-virus software, which often doesn't detect adware.
    As for the other issues, it sounds like you've got some serious corruption. I would be inclined to say it sounds like a failing drive, except it sounds like you just got it replaced. How did you get all your files back after the new drive was installed?

  • I am volunteering in Haiti, when I try to update apps, says I am in the Vietnamese store.  I went to settings for my apple id, which still list USA?  How do I switch stores?

    I am volunteering in Haiti, when I try to update apps, says I am in the Vietnamese store.  I went to settings for my apple id, which still list USA?  How do I switch stores, when it appears I am in the US store?

    If you have Location Services turned on turn this off, then follow steps below:
    Go to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Your_Apple_ID>View Apple ID
    When you tap your Apple ID and select View Apple ID you'll need to enter your password, once done you can change the Apple Store.

  • When I try to send a link to a page from Safari, I get a message saying that sending the message to the server failed.  It places a copy in the outbox.  All other email and safari functions work properly.  Ipad 2 IOS 7.1

    My Ipad2 works fine except when I try to email myself a link to a safari webpage.  I get an error message saying that the message failed to connect to the server.  It says that a copy of the message has been left in the outbox.  I cannot get the message from the outbox.  All other email and safari functions work as expected.
    I have cleared data and cookies, powered down, and done a reset.  Nothing seems to help.

    Typing in additional text seems to get the job done.  This seems to be a feature of the latest IOS update, I have never had the problem before the last update.
    I use the box with the arrow just to the left of the URL block at the top of the page to send myself links to pages of interest.  Adding the extra text seems like a pointless step, but it does work.
    Thanks.

  • Have set Yahoo Mail as my mailto yet when I try to "send a link" I get a Yahoo sign in page and am then taken to my inbox. How can I get an email box to send the link?

    I can't get Firefox to send either photos out of Picasa or "send a
    link" using my Yahoo!Mail option. Have set Yahoo as my default
    and have set Yahoo as my mailto using tools/apps. When I
    use "send a link" I am sent to my Yahoo sign in page and it takes
    me to my inbox. How can I get a blank email form to come up?

  • Mail freezes when I try to send a group an attachment from contacts

    I tried to send an e-mail group located in my Contacts app a .pdf attachment but the Mail app freezes and does not send the e-mail.  When I manually input the e-mail addresses and try to send the same attachment the e-mail goes through just fine.  Has anyone had the same problem trying to send a Contacts group an attachment?

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then take an action that isn't working the way you expect. Select any lines that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
    Some private information, such as your name or email address, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

  • When I try and send photos taken on the pad to my work email, it literally takes up to 10 hours???  whats up?

    WHy does it take so long to send photos taken on Ipad to another email address.  Some have taken 10 hours?????

    with your work e-mail, could your work IT dept be queueing the mail? I know ours has a bad habit of queueing mails with attachments unitl they can scan them
    or does it do that with every mail address you send photos to?

  • When I click on an email link on a web page, it goes to my Outlook Express inbox, not a new message

    It used to open to a new message with the relevant email address in the "To" line. Now it just opens Outlook Express to my inbox.

    Hi, cor-el,
    Thank you for responding so quickly!
    I tried to follow the instructions, but it didn't work. There are 10 mimeTypes.rdf files on my computer!
    I tried to follow the website instructions of
    Tools -> Options -> Content / File Types -> Manage
    but once I get to Content I am stuck. No Manage button. (there is nothing that says File Types)
    What do you suggest?
    Thanks again.
