I have migrated over to Safari as I am liking it more than FireFox.
Whenever I open an attachment on an email, it chooses FireFox as the browser to open.
How do I change that preference on a MacBook so that the attachment opens with Safari instead of FireFox?
I have tried to find it everywhere and can't seem to find it.
Thanks in advance.

Disregard.

After a half hour of trying, and then posting here, finally located it.

Please close as not needed.


It truly sucks to be old and blind.

I made the switch awhile ago and then switched back. I'm not using a Mac, but I didn't end up liking Safari. Glad you found your answer though, Carlos. I'll go back to being lazy now. :D

Not sure if MAC compatible... Try Googles Chrome, screaming fast browsers. Beat them all as far as I can tell.

Not mac ready yet. Why use Chrome though? SRWare Iron is the exact same browser except it doesn't breach your privacy like Chrome.

I really like FF just cause of all the plugins. I do however use opera on my netbook. Great browser, small footprint, and smoking fast. Well worth a look as there is a mac version. Safari just doesn't do it for me :c

Lately, Firefox has been slow.
I go on Safari and it moves normal.

Safari is the fastest mac browser when it comes to flash based sites. I wish we had chrome though. If you have any other mac questions you can always PM me i've been through my share of hurdles making the mac switch
