When in my email, my links open into internet explorer instead of firefox

When I am in my email and a message has a link and I open the link, instead of going to firefox, it opens in internet explorer, I use firefox not internet explorer.

Hello, I'm having this exact same problem since the last few days, somethings changed on how the hotmail webpage is loading, or what it's loading, as Google chrome also reports an 'Aw-Snap' webpage error.
regards

  • Hyperlink in MS office to pdf opens in Internet Explorer instead of Firefox

    I have some documents (Excel, Word) that contain hyperlinks.
    Hyperlinks to websites (www.***.com or http://***.htm) nicely open in Firefox. But links to online pdf's (http://www.***.com/***.pdf) all open in Internet Explorer.
    How can I change this?
    I'm using Windows XP pro, Firefox 3.0.5, Office 2003, Adobe Reader 9.0.0

    I have the same problem (roughly) - I have PDF hyperlinks in an Excel spreadsheet and, when clicked, instead of them opening directly in Acrobat (or via Firefox, my default browser), they open via IE. Regular HTML links in the Excel spreadsheet open in Firefox.
    I have enabled the '''Block PDF files' access to all web sites''' option under ''Trust Manager'' category in the Adobe Reader ''Preferences'' tab.
    I have also disabled the '''Adobe PDF Link Helper''' Extension in the ''Manage Add-ons'' tab in IE.
    Obviously, neither of these settings made any difference.

  • .pdf hyperlinks in word open in Internet Explorer instead of Firefox

    I have website addresses copied and pasted into a word document, which automatically makes them a hyperlink. Normal website addresses open fine in firefox (which is my default browser) when I Ctrl+click on them. Web links to a .pdf, however, open Internet Explorer and then open in Adobe Acrobat inside Internet Explorer. How can I get .pdf links to open in Firefox when I Ctrl+click on them?

  • When I open a page from an email document it opens in Internet Explorer - how can I stop this?

    Hi, I use Firefox as my default browser but when I opened a link from an official emailed adobe document it opened in Internet Explorer - I want to force all browser links to open only in Firefox - I have checked the advanced options and Firefox is set to my default, please help.

    Hi PCM1, if i understand well the problem you have is when you click on a URL in a pdf file, the link opens in IE ? Have you checked in the default programs panel to see if all was well set ?

  • When I try to open a bookmark I get a box that says "what should firefox do with this file?" When I try to change the "open with Internet Explorer" I can't find firefox ? Last week this bookmark worked fine.

    When I open a bookmark a box pops up that says "What should firefox do with this file? "open with Internet Explorer? When I browse I can't find firefox to change to. Last week this book mark worked perfectly.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the ''Safe mode'' start window.
    You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (on Mac: "Firefox > Quit")

  • I have URL links to PDFs in an excel spreadsheet, the document opens in Internet Explorer, even though Firefox is my Default browser

  • My weather bug gadgets trys to open in internet explorer rather than firefox

    Have Firefox check to make sure that it is the default program.

  • Craigslist replies, opens Internet Explorer instead of FireFox why does this happen?

    When I reply to a add, instead of opening FireFox my default brouser, it opens IE and I have to login to my hotmail account again.

    It typically opens the default browser regardless of which browser you're actually using.  I'm wondering if there's a funky registry key or something that confuses things for your system.
    Either way, we usually launch the default system browse, which is not necessarily the browser you started the installation with.  This is a long-standing bad experience, and something that I complain to the team that makes the installer about on a regular basis.  Everyone involved recognizes that the behavior is less than ideal, but it's a fundamental design problem and it's not something that can be addressed with a simple fix.  It *is* very much on the radar as something that we want changed, and I'm pretty sure that it will get resolved in the installer over the long-term.
    In the meantime, if you would like to avoid the Flash Player upgrade process entirely, Google Chrome includes Flash Player as a built-in component.  There's nothing separate to download from Adobe, and all the updates are made available directly through Chrome's update mechanism.

  • How do I open an internet explorer tab from Firefox?

    In older versions of Firefox, I could click on a tab and open it in IE, but I don't know how to do it in Firefox 4.

    That has never been a built-in feature of Firefox, but is added by an extension such as IE Tab 2 - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/ie-tab-2-ff-36/

  • I use Earthlink mailbox, and I want my email links to open with Firefox, but they open with Internet Explorer; how to fix?

    I am using Windows XP 2002 operating system; Earthlink mailbox program for email with AT&T Broadband.
    I want to have Firefox as my default browser, but my email links open with Internet Explorer. I have followed the Firefox help page to set Firefox as my browser, but the problem remains.
    Do you know how to fix this? Is it a problem with Earthlink?

    I have Microsoft Outlook also with Firefox and can open just about every link, url, company page, etc via the email links. First, make sure you have noted the email as NOT JUNK so that the links are activated by Outlook. Second, Firefox needs to your default browser for the links to open in Firefox rather than IE. There are some links from Microsoft that may ignore the default and open in IE but not all anymore. I have a Sony laptop which ignores the default browser and opens all of its support information from its VAIO software loaded on the computer in IE. Besides that though, over 95% of my items will open in my default brwser selection, which is currently Firefox.
    Go to this link to make sure Firefox is your default browser.

    Or this link to make any browswer of your choice the default.

  • Google desktop and Picasa open Internet Explorer even though Firefox is my default browser

    I am using Firefox 6, and no matter what I do clicking on Google Desktop opens Internet Explorer instead of Firefox. I have set Firefox as the default browser in at least 3 places: In Firefox itself; on the Internet Options section of the Control Panel; In the add/remove programs Set Default Programs screen. This is all in Windows XP professional. The same problem happens with Picasa online albums (when I go from my computer's Picasa to Web Albums). I don't know when this started, but now I cannot get my Web timeline. I have uninstalled Google Desktop.

  • Hiding the menu bar of acrobat when opening in internet explorer

    Hi, i remember vaguely about a certain suffix you can give to the link of a pdf file so that when it opens inside internet explorer, it does not show the menu bar. Could someone help me out and tell me what this suffix is?
    I remember it was something like.... www.asfg.com/mypdf.pdf#NOMENU or something.
    If there is any other way to do this, it would be appreciated as well.
    Thanks,

  • TS4022 Why does my icloud open in internet explorer when it is not my main browser?

    Why does icloud open in internet explorer when I use Google as my main browser? I did something to make it happen and can't find how to change it back.

    Hey man I was having the same problem and I found the answer.... Im going to put the steps you have to follow.
    1.Open www.icloud.com on your Internet Explorer and if you're signed in you have to sign out.
    2. Open www.icould.com on your Google Chrome and then sign in and click on the box that says "stay signed in" or something like that.
    3. Try to open icloud the normal way you do it and it has to open on Chrome.
    This worked for me, hopefully it works for you man, let me know.

  • When I right click on an entry in the bookmarks and select Open in Internet Explorer, nothing happens.

    When I right click on an entry in the bookmarks and select Open in Internet Explorer, nothing happens. It does work when I am on a page , right click and select View this page in IE.

    If you right-click the image and choose View Image Info, what shows as "Type"?
    If it shows JPEG image, for example, make sure to save the file with a .jpg file extension. If you place quotation marks around the entire file name, e.g.,
    "myfile.jpg"
    then you can ensure that the name as the correct extension. Does that help?
