Why can't I open "mail" from "home page" any more?

Until today I could open yahoo! mail from a link in the upper left hand corner of my "home page." The link is gone and now I have to Google "Yahoo! Mail" to open mail. From mail I can go to home page by clicking on the house icon but not vice versa
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Today

So... You want your home page to be Yahoo! Mail??

Why can't I open email attachments in Firefox?

I can open my e-mail attachments if I'm in Internet Explorer but I cannot open email attachments if I'm using Firefox. Why?

I've been on here for hours trying to figure out where the directions are for this - there's never an answer but finally found it. Go to Tools, Options, Applications and then Help. That's where the instructions are for Firefox File Handling - it helped me alot, although I still like the way IE opens attachments better. I am getting so I really like Firefox though, especially how incredibly fast it is. :)

After my OS update I can no longer open email attachments. What could be the issue??

After my latest OS update I can no longer open email attachments. What might be in the issue??

Quit Mail and restart.
Select each of your mailboxes and select Rebuild under the Mailboxes menu.
If those don't help, then reinstall Yosemite:
Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks or Yosemite without erasing drive
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks, or Yosemite
OS X Yosemite- Reinstall OS X
OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

I use a web-based CRM system. Last night it suddenly blanked out some images but mor importantly did not allow me access to emails stored on each record.

How can I open email attachments in Pages?

I am unable to open email attachments such as Word docs and PDFs in Pages. If I select them I get "open in mover lite." Until recently, when I selected them I could open in iBooks but that is no longer an option for me. I am not sure iBooks would help anyway!
How can I open attachments in Pages?
Thank you,
Prea

according to MS KB article:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/278061
That file is made when someone is using Rich text format and attaches a file. Have them switch to either HTML or plain text and reatatch the file and you should see the proper attachments.

Can no longer open email attachments

All of a sudden I was unable to open email attachments with my att yahoo account. I was able to open them using Explorer. I tried all the suggestions posted including clearing history, safe mode, and resetting Firefox, to no avail. This problem occurs with all email extensions.

''I solved the problem by doing an uninstall and reinstall of Firefox ''
Glad that worked for you. <br /> Whilst posters in this thread have the same broad and vague symptom the cause may vary. Reinstalling Firefox may be overkill for this type of problem, and a simple reinstall is often not a very good solution to anything.
Walter & the sign out solution.<br />Probably a quick and simple trick if it works. The clear cache and site cookies suggestion in the second post of this thread is probably a more reliable method of doing of solving that sort of issue.
== ''';-)''' ==
This reminds me of another Forum I was on.
Threads often had suggested solutions along the lines of
#Uninstall browser A use browser B, that worked for me
#Followed by another poster saying uninstall browser B use A
In fact the thread would be one where clearing cache and cookies would be the preferred solution. Uninstalling a browser and reinstalling a brand new instance of another has a similar effect to clearing cache and cookies, but is nowhere near as convenient.

Why can I not open email from comcast?

Suddenly I have lost the capacity to open email on my Comcast account. I can view that I have mail but they will not open.

FIXED!
Had the same problem. AOL had been working for months, stopped working for no reason. I checked the settings against aol's instructions and the username was wrong - aol state that the username should not have the @aol.com suffix but it did. The next problem encountered was that the iPad would not let me change the username under outgoing smtp settings. Answer is to do the following:
Go to settings -> mail ->aol account ->outgoing mail server.
Turn the primary smtp server off.
Create a new one for smtp.aol.com with the username without @aol.com at the end and your password.
The rest of the settings should populate automatically.
Good luck.

Open email attachments with Pages?

Have just recently purchased 2 iMacs and am having a problem with email attachments. iWorks is installed on both machines. In one machine, when an email attachment comes through I can "Command-click" and get an option menu to select the application that will open the attachment- in other words choose Pages rather than TextEdit or Word (if I had it installed).
On the second computer, all "Word-type" documents are automatically opend by TextEdit. If I "Command-click"

You are probably not doing anything wrong but sending to persons not having Macs with Pages of the same version. If you are sending to person on PCs or Macs without the right Pages you have to export to Word or Pdf so they can read it.

Why can't I open html documents in Pages 3.0 but could in v2.0.2?

We used Pages v2.0.2 to open html exam documents to reformat the exams before sending to the printer. We recently upgraded to Pages 3.0 via iWorks '08, and we can no longer open html documents. Does anyone know if this is just an oversight in Pages 3.0 and will be fixed in future updates or has Apple intentionally abandoned html support in Pages?
We need to find a workable solution. We prepare exams for 1000s of students each semester.
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Rick

Pages 3.0 (that is iWork '08) doesn't have an HTML entry in the CFBundleDocumentTypes of it's Info.plist file. Pages 1.x and 2.x both DO have an HTML entry in their Info.plist files. Thus Pages 3 won't open HTML while Pages 1 and 2 both will.
So the questions are:
Why did Apple remove HTML as a file type for Pages v3.0? Was it a mistake? Was it intentional? Will it come back in a quick update to Pages?
And then again for you Allan Eckert:
How are you able to open HTML documents in Pages v3.0? By rights, any ".html" file shouldn't be openable in Pages v3.

WHY CAN'T I COMBINE FILES WITH RIGHT CLICK ANY MORE? HOW LONG AM I EXPECTED TO WAIT BEFORE SWITCHING TO A COMPETITOR'S PRODUCT?

I used to be able to select a set of documents in the Windows file explorer, right click these highlighted documents, and then right click-->Combine Files in Acrobat.
This used to open the combine files page in Acrobat and I would be able to combine the files directly.
Now when I use right click to combine files in Acrobat it simply opens Acrobat. If I want to combine the files I have to go to Acrobat, select the option, and then navigate to the files.
This similar issue exists for edited PDFs. I used to be able to right click a document and select "Edit with Adobe Acrobat" and the document would open when this option was selected. Now if this option is selected it opens Adobe Acrobat and I have to navigate to any files I want to use.
How do I use the right click features in the file explorer? These features don't work any more and they used to.

Hi
Could you please tell which Acrobat version you are using and also the OS- Windows 7 or 8.1?
Also can you please tell whether you are getting Acrobat specific combine and Edit options in the right - click menu?
If yes, are they working or nothing happens on clicking them?
If possible, can you also try to restart your system and then try Right-click -> combine files in Acrobat?
Thanks
Tanvi
