(Archived) When clicking on a link in a mail a new Evernote is created?

Hi,

I have a problem that I hope you can help me with as it is driving me nuts!

After updating Evernote to the latest version on my Mac (1.9.0 (83438)) whenever I click on a URL in a mail a new note is created in Evernote instead of the URL opening up in my webbrowser !?

I have checked the preferences in Evernote but can't seem to find any setting in the preferences. I have the same problem when opening a URL from my 1Password-program - It also opens up a new note in Evernote instead of logging in to the site that it used to do.

Hope you can help me!

Best regards,

fbrose

You've somehow configured Evernote as your default "web browser." We've seen this problem occasionally from people who use VMWare, which messes with your OS browser selection in strange ways.

To fix: Launch Safari and then go to Safari's Preferences > General > Default web browser

Hi engberg,

That did the trick and obviously had nothing to do with Evernote!

Thank you very much for your quick reply!

Best regards,

Thanks a lot for the tip !!

I was cursing Evernote, but as you say, I used VMware lately, and it must have mess up that...

Anyway, now it works again
