Thanks for the call, David. I was not aware that just pasting the URL into a message with rich text composition would automatically make the URL an active link to the recipient of the message. I feel better now. <smile> On Oct 13, 2013, at 1:42 PM, Stephens Leslie <leslie956@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: Hi Alll, I received the "update is ready " message for OSX when I powered on today. So I let it restart to install. Now I have a major problem. When I try to "add a link" , it lets me place the url in the field but the OK button is dimmed, preventing me from completing the action. I use this several times per day. Anyone else have this issue? Should I try to remove the update? I am not able to live with this defect. I have closed and reopened Mail. I have restarted my MAC. Thanks in advance for any advice you can give. Leslie ************ You are subscribed to the mac4theblind mailing list.
