TanjaLewis 0 Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 I have Evernote on both my computers ( Imac and Macbook Air). On my Imac the default mail app is Mail - but on my MBA it is Outlook ( I used Outlook as my mail client at a time). I want to change the default mail client, so my saved mails open in Mail, when I doubleclick on them on my MBA as they do on my Imac. I have attached a screenshot. Link to comment
Level 5* JMichaelTX 4,115 Posted March 20, 2015 Level 5* Share Posted March 20, 2015 This is a Mac issue, not an Evernote issue. Have you tried the following on the Mac you want to change:Review Mac Mail Preferences Google "set default mac mail app" Link to comment
TanjaLewis 0 Posted March 20, 2015 Author Share Posted March 20, 2015 Hi there Yes, I believe so, if this is what you mean: https://support.apple.com/en-lb/HT201607 It doesn't change it. I can still choose to open with mail, but it's a 2-3 step proces instead of just clicking it open in the right application right away :-/ Link to comment
Dave Hiersekorn 2 Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 You're not going to get any help from Apple or any of the forums. Here's how to solve this problem... In Outlook, click and drag an email onto your Desktop. Right click the email file and select Get Info. In the info box, expand Open With and set it to Microsoft Outlook. Then click the button to apply that decision to all. The problem is that your Mac doesn't treat the email file as an email. It treats it as a file with the .eml extension. And, it goes through the preferences for Finder instead of Mail. Link to comment
