I have aol and Hotmail e-mail services.

I tried for weeks repair what can help you please?

Hello

Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community Forum.

  1. You can access your e-mail by using Internet Explorer?
  2. You use a client like Windows Live mail or Microsoft Office Outlook e-mail program?
  3. When you receive the error message exactly?

This error is received when you try to perform a function without going through the required software, allowing a customer to e-mail. AOL or Hotmail address that they can be configured using an e-mail client program.

If you have an e-mail client installed on your system, you can set this program as default to avoid this error. See the section: set your default programs in the following link:

Change the programs that Windows uses by default

Also, I suggest you post with the information required to provide you with better assistance.

    If you access Gmail via your browser, it won't work. The mailto prompt is looking for a default mail client.
     
    The easiest way is to simply start a new message and then attach the file. If you want to try to make Gmail default, that would work, but no guarantee.

    1. Click Startand then click run.
    2. In the Open box, type regedit and press ENTER.
    3. In the registry editor, locate the following subkey in the registry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Clients\Mail\Microsoft Outlook
    4. Select the subkey and press DELETE.
    5. Click Yes.
    6. Exit the registry editor.
    7. Start Outlook.

    Please take these steps to remove the mail folders 'sandbox '.

    Step 1

    Back up all data.

    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select this option:

    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail

    Right-click or Ctrl-click on the highlighted line and select

    Services ▹ Reveal

    the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open up with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If this is the case, move the selected folder - not only its content - on the desktop. Open the window Finder for now.

    Restart the computer. Launch Mail and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to re-create some of your e-mail settings. Any writing paper custom that you created may be lost. Ask for instructions if you want to keep these data. You can then delete the folder that you moved and close Finder.

    CAUTION: If you change the content of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may hang or starts any. Remove the tray to sand everything will be rebuilt automatically.

    Step 2

    If step 1 does not resolve the problem, repeat with this line:

    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.MailServiceAgent

    * If you do not see the item context menu copy the selected text in the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination. In the Finder, select

    Go ▹ go to the folder...

    from the menu bar and paste it into the box that opens by pressing command + V. You won't see what you pasted a newline being included. Press return.

    1. can I implement sort of local services that receive requests and post answers (events) to consume in GUI (event dispatch thread)? I mean reuse of e/s asynchronous implementation.

    2. back in windows 3. XX days (single threaded bone) he didn't there was "nested event loop" approach within the loop of calculation I can call something like dispatchMessages() to prevent the blocking user interface. Is this possible with flex?

  • Why I said no e-mail program when you try to send a scanned document

    Just bought the new laptop HP Pavilion and new HP printer all in one.

    First of all, I'm stuck with Windows 8 (horror! after XL)

    In addition, never used a scanner before.

    Configure printer OK. Not sure where the scanned document should go in 'Library', but managed to find a picture I had scanned.

    When you want to send the picture, I get a message that basically said...

    No e-mail program to perform the requested action. Install an e-mail program or, if you have already installed, create an association in the default programs control panel...

    as far as I can see, in the default programs control panel, when I click on the EMAIL he just said Microsoft windows. Cannot change, delete, replace... cannot do anything.

    I don't know that I'm being stupid. I have no one to ask. I am nearly 70, do not understand half of what is all about. Can anyone help - in understandable English, please.

    Thank you

    Hello

    If you are simply trying to select an image file, right click and select send to/recipient of the message, it will not work if you are using the default Windows 8 App Mail.

    You must have a Desktop Email program is installed to do this, such as Windows Live Mail, which is part of the Windows Essentials range.

    Windows Live Mail - free

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Live/Essentials-other-programs

    To attach the image using Windows 8 Mail App, open the Mail application and select new email message.

    Click on the paper clip icon in top/right (attachments).

    Navigate to the folder where the image is stored and Select the file.

    Click the button to join at the bottom of the screen.

    This will attach the file to the new email.
