Anybody notice how if you put URLs in HTML emails, they don't work? The HTML code adds a lot of alphanumeric stuff in front of the URL so it can't be located. I don't recall this problem prior to Vista Mail. So, if I want to be sure they'll work I'll have to turn off the HTML. Or, I'll save it as a draft then see if the URLS work- if they work in the draft folder, they'll usually work OK.

I have an HTML file that I use as my signature in Windows mail. It works fine for the most part, but, if I create an email from Windows Explorer by right-clicking a file and selecting send to-mail recipient, my logo doesn't work when inserted. The rest of the signature is fine, it's just that the logo is missing.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have this problem since I use Vista and Windows Mail and it seems it's not Internet Explorer related, because it doesn't exist with Outlook Express and IE7/8. I think most of you know the feature some forums have, you get an eMail notice about a new posting in a thread you're watching. These notices usually contain a link to the new posting.
clicking on that url opens IE (or FF) and it directs you to the new posting. But when I click on it using Windows Mail in Vista (and I use IE) it opens the thread page in the forum that contains the new posting, but doesn't directly show it, so I often have to scroll till I found it. I noticed that IE just opens this url:
That means, the last part 208112 is missing and that's the reason why it just shows the current page (scrolled to top), but not the posting itself. Does anyone of you have a solution for that problem? I think it's kinda annoying, especially when there's more than 1 new posting in a forum

View 5 Replies View RelatedWhen I drag a URL from a browser to my Vista Ultimate Desktop, it creates an icon, but clicking on that icon brings up a file location and not the web site. Older Bookmarks or Shortcuts I saved from before this Vista machine, work fine. But ones created by dragging a link or url from a Browser to the desktop don't work.
When I bring up in any browser, and drag the link to the desktop, then clicking on the shortcut on the desktop (or in a folder too) I get the following (I've replaced my name):
file:///C:/Users/My%Name/Documents/Desktop/Welcome%20to%20the%20Montgomery%20County%20Maryland%20Website.URL The properties of the shortcut show no Web tab. The Location in the General Tab shows "C:UsersMy Name....[etc.]. It does show to open with my browser. The Details Tab shows the Folder Path as "C:Users...[etc.] and finally! The Computer is listed as the correct URL web address I have seen other discussions on dragging and dropping to the Vista Desktop not working listed on this site (found using Google) but couldn't bring them up in the search from within this Support site.
I now have a brand new HP m9100z and can not get email to work at all. My other machine is an HP s3123w aka "slimline". Both run windows vista home premium. On the slimline, email works just fine. On the new machine, nadda. Zip, zero. Can not get email to work using any client I have.
Thunderbird, windows mail, forte agent, all say "login failed". Even though both machines are setup exactly the same. The difference in the two machines is that the new one now has a wifi card and dual ntsc tuners. My domain works fine through browsers so I can get email through the website. Just can't do it on this machine. So what tricks can I try to get email to work?
I got a warning that some PC can't read this. I didn't know I was sending it. I was recommended to change to plain text, but did not tell me how to do so. some tips would be nice.

I cannot open any of the key HTML file in them. The choice is either player.html or index.html. I can view the source code but keep getting blocked. I tell Vista to allow blocked content. Nothing. I am the administrator. I started fooling with the Active X and Scripted security features since this is the warning I receive when trying to open the HTLM file. I enabled everything you aren't supposed to, received the dire warnings but still cannot access the content. I put everything back to default (because the dire warnings are scarey!) I am using Vista Home Premium. I am desperate to open any of these three files as I have a job using them next week.

I have a really strange problem on my VISTA home premium PC. I have a number of HTML files stored in documents folder, but when I try to edit the HTML file in notepad I get the following error message: Cannot create the file. Make sure that the path and file name are correct.
File and path are correct because I just opened it from the documents folder. What makes it strange is that if I change the extension from HTML to TXT I can edit and save without any issue, but once I change back to HTML I lose the ability to save any edits. Also, if I copy the HTML file to another folder such as desktop or C: root, I can edit without any issues. I've checked the properties of the folder and file and haven't found anything out of the ordinary. Searched the MS KB and haven't turned up anything.
Note: The following description refers to an HTML file residing in a folder
on my computer, not an HTML file on the internet (web page.) When I open an existing HTML file with Notepad, then attempt to "Save" it, an alert message box appears which says: "Cannot create the C:UsersMeDesktopfolder namefilename.html file.
Make sure the path and filename are correct." I can "Save As..." a different file name or different file type, but cannot "Save" in the normal manner. This problem only affects saving an HTML file. There is no problem with other file types. I'm not certain of the time sequence, but I think I downloaded an update to
QuickTime since the last time there wasn't a problem.
I can create and save an HTML file but can't save changes to an existing HTML file. When trying to save using Notepad, the error window says:
Cannot create the
C:UsersRoyDesktopWebPages est.html file
Make sure that the path and file name are correct.
When trying to save using Notepad++, the error window says:
Save failed Please check whether if (sic) this file is opened in another program.
What I can do with Notepad (I haven't tried any work-around with Notepad++) is to first save the .html file as a .txt file, then open the .txt file and successfully save it as a .html file. I tell you this as a possible diagnostic clue; it is by no means an acceptable fix. This problem appeared suddenly out of the blue. I can think of nothing that might have caused it. I have tried the usual stuff, such as re-booting, but nothing has worked.

However the username and password are correct, and the account does send and receive emails OK. The account is located with the same ISP as the fully functioning account. I have checked that all the settings etc for the caccount are correct, and have tried manually inputting them with same effect.
For background on this post, see "Unable to save HTML file" posted 9/17/2009 12:31PM. Comments:
(1) A reset of IE did not fix the problem.
(2) A system restore to the day before installing QuickTime did fix the problem. This doesn't prove that QuickTime is at fault, of course, but I still have my suspicions. I will probably reload QuickTime shortly, and if the problem returns, I'll post it.
Note: It appears that the system restore reversed the IE reset, so for anyone (like me) who might be nervous about doing the reset, the restore is a safety backup.

I have followed the help instructions as I wanted to change the font to another style, colour etc. However 'Help' tells you to format your signature in a WP package and save in html format. Easy, I thought! In Word 2007 when you try to Save As - the html option si not in the drop down menu. so i tried in Wordpad, no luck ther either. how I save to html in vista? I had no problems in W.XP. Wish I had not had to change!
