When I am in my yahoo email I can attach anything I need, no problem. Its when I am not in my email program I right click on a photo or webpage and it pops up with "There is no email program associated to perform the requested action. Create an association in the default programs control panel " I am unable to find any way to do this.

I believe when you right click on a page and you select "Share this Page" the sharing add on is used. It is managed by the services on this page : https://activations.cdn.mozilla.net/en-US/

It will list emails and social media services that you can add to the browser. The other place is the Applications menu which is set to handle file types, but I do not think that this is what you are referring to?

Are you selecting "Share This Image" or "Email Image"?

If you are using the older "Email Image" command, Firefox should display a list of available options, one of which should be Yahoo.

The older "Email Link" command can be found on the File menu (tap the Alt key to activate if needed) or you can add it to the graphical menu or toolbar using the Customize feature.

Now... Yahoo does change things from time to time, so those functions may not work very well... but let's come back to that if you have issues with them.
