Help does not work, the url links do nothing

I have windows 8.1.
When in thunderbird, I press F1 and nothing happens.
Even clicking on the Release Notes or the help contents.
The same thing happens when I click on a link to a URL in a received email.
I went through all the help on the net and none doesn't change anything.
I use Firefox and it is set as my default browser.

OK, I found the problem.
Here is the solution suggestedin https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/hyperlinks-in-messages-not-working
Make sure that no application is specified for the HTTP content type

In Thunderbird, you can specify an action that occurs when you click on the different types of attachments and content online. If the action for the HTTP / HTTPS content type is broken, this will prevent the links to open correctly.

If the operating system default browser is specified correctly as described above, it is not necessary to specify an action for the HTTP / HTTPS content type. To check this setting, select Tools | Options (Windows) or Thunderbird | Preferences (Mac and Linux). Click on the attachments page. If HTTP or HTTPS are listed in the column to the Content Type, remove the action or make sure that the specified action is correct.

Even with its value (by default) Firefox, it does not work.

If you reset it asking when you say to use Firefox and click the box to remember... area so it will work and to remember. The option looks the same in Thunderbird / Options / attachments / incoming, but it behaves differently. (must love microsoft eager, eager to Internet Explorer by default so that they can track everything you do)

Also delete the entries for http and Https also works as well as deleting the file mimeTypes.rdf together.

Can't really tell if the problem lies in the mimetypes.rdf layout I have or how Windows 8.1 manages permissions (which seem to be a little weird with a strange "account unknown" created if Firefox is installed).

  • CS6 help does not work in Local mode

    Hello

    I downloaded the demo and installed Mac OS Lion. The request for help does not work; the omly thing that it will display's settings window. After local content downloading and clicking on the fact, the window disappears, but when you click the application icon, it reappears again. In short, I can't display help at all in the aid application, even though I have it set to always use local content. Anyone else run into this?

    Hi telebutch,

    Sorry for the inconvenience, you face.

    The path on your local computer would be:

    / Users / [user name] /Library/Preferences/chc.4875E02D9FB21EE389F73B8D1702B320485DF8CE.1

    If the folder above does not exist, check if you have more than one medium volume? If so, the directory above can be created on the mount where launches 'Manager Adobe help.

    Another reason why 'Adobe help Manager' keeps popping up that is already active sound the system tray. YOY can "Force quit" the application after you set preferences and try an another invocation of help.

    If nothing works, workaround to stop "Adobe help Manager" to launch whenever you launch help, maybe remove the application from your system. Open "/ Applications/Adobe" in the Finder and place 'Adobe help eat' into the trash. Note that this can also mean that you will not be able to download any help offline - and all the help incovations would need internet connectivity.

    Hope this helps and let us know if you still see issues.

    Kind regards

  • Why is that now, when I click on a link for a Web site I have saved, it does NOT show the URL in the address bar? I don't and then drag it to an email to share the link.

    How is it that, in these new versions of Firefox (I have 21.0), when I opened a link that I recorded, it does NOT display the URL in the bar of addresses?

    I can't drag and drop the link in an email, and I don't see the actual address that I'm connected to for reference OR for security reasons. Why is - this has changed?

    It becomes necessary to reveal the properties of the URL link that I saved, by using the 'Properties' window, then copy and paste the URL in the address bar of Firefox, until I can do something with it.

    I had the same problem. Looked at all the addons and extensions referred to in the conversation between philipp and dadmr. All extensions and plugins off and on again with each shot. Problem has been resolved by disabling app 1.0.85 Goodshop and RealDownloader 1.3.2.28. It may be that these versions were outdated, but were postponed during the upgrade from previous versions of Firefox. I hope this helps.

  • menu of hyperlink is displayed when text is selected, not when the Menu item is selected. And of course does not display the available links. Where I'm wrong?

    Try to make hyperlinks in a menu item. If I select the menu item, the menu of hyperlinks is not displayed in the menu bar. If I click on new and then the tex in the link is selected, the hyperlink menu appears but the drop down menu does not offer the available links. Where I'm wrong?

    I think you use a menu by default on the page?

    It's design of menu by default, because they are already linked with the respective pages that you can't change.

    You can try to create the menu manual.

  • I installed Firefox today but it does not open and the icon in the taskbar will not close and I can't uninstall it and the helper does not work either?

    I tried everything I know to uninstall the new version of Firefox. I also installed Aurora beta and it had the same behavior, and I managed to uninstall that. I can't open a browser ff to work on it with the help of a large part of your support information. I click the icon, but it does not start on the desktop but the clock running as Task Manager. I have to end task in Task Manager to close it. I can not uninstall and tried the system restore, but this also does not work due to another problem with my antivirus program.

  • Fuzzy search help (does not work if change the order of some 2 letters)

    Hello

    need help with search fuzzy. It's pretty simple - we use fuzzy search on varchar2 columns that contain the name and name. The problem is that I don't really understand why she can't find the name in some cases.

    I want to get "Taekpaul". Then

    where CONTAINS (first_name, 'fuzzy (TAEKPAUL)', 1) > 0 - work
    where CONTAINS (first_name, 'fuzzy (TAEKPALU)', 1) > 0 - works (amended order to the last 2 letters)
    When CONTAINS (first_name, 'fuzzy (TEAKPAUL)', 1) > 0 - does not work, see "Brahim" is completely different (changed to the 2nd and 3rd order)

    How can I find 'Taekpaul', even if I get TEAKPAUL? Is she related to the index? As the text index must be created with different settings?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    I tried you have case, and I get the same results. I also tried with the soundex function "!" and gives me the result, so I tried this:

    where CONTAINS(first_name,'fuzzy(!TEAKPAUL)',1) > 0
    

    The difference is the "!" in front of the searchterm. Is this really the solution to your problem?

  • Navigation toolbar does not display the URL

    When I go to a website, the section of the navigation toolbar that displays the URL of the page is no longer indicates the URL http://www as he always did in the past. The size of the part has been reduced. Has expanded the area where you type URL for search engine. I have no problem with the navigation, history, bookmarks, tabs bar, etc. Only problem is that the URL does not display the page. Even this page has no URL displayed in the navigation bar. It has the logo for mozilla and when I put the cursor on it, it says it all "Web site does not provide identity information." The same shows for each site than go. Yes, I can to bookmark the page without any problem and can use bookmarks to return to the page. But no URL appears in fact as he always did in the past. Oh, I have an IMac and use a keyboard of razor.

    Hello.

    You should be able to resize the address bar, if the search bar is to the right by simply sliding the space between the address bar and the search bar.

    If that does not solve your problems, it is possible that you have a problem with some Add on Firefox which is an obstacle to the normal behavior of your Firefox. Have you tried to disable all add-ons (just to see) to see if Firefox goes back to normal?

    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you must make sure that it is not caused by one (or more) of your installed modules, whether an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do this easily and cleanly, start Firefox in safe mode (remember to select disable all add-ons when you start safe mode). If the problem goes away, you know that it's an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode and allow them one by one until you find the source of the problem. See this article for more information on troubleshooting extensions and themes and this one for plugins.

    If you need help with one of your modules, you will need to contact the author.

    If the problem does not disappear when all add-ons are disabled, tell me please, then we can work from there. Please be afraid not to follow my instructions to the line, as everything can be easily undone.
