Mailto: Function opens Paypal app instead of native email app (on mobile) - email

i try to figure out why my mailto function doesn't work like expected. I get redirected to paypal everytime i click on it. I use an Android phone (S7).
The button link looks like this:
mailto:?subject=I%20wanted%20you%20to%20see%20this%20site&body=Check%20out%20this%20article%3A%20https%3A%2F%2Ftestsite.net%2F
Of course i could delete or disable Paypal on my phone...The problem is: i want to share the link online and if people get redirected to paypal instead this would cost me money.
There must be any solution...Do you have any ideas ?
With best Regards,
Fabi

Hold down the paypal app icon. Click info. Go down to settings, then where it says set as default, click "clear defaults".

Sign in with google in my website

I have created Client Id in google console, and I put the code given in google console,
but if I have already signed in gmail in other tab, and I open my website it automatically sign in with gmail.
I want to know that how can I implement this so that when user press 'Sign in with google' then only it goes to other page.
I am also having that issue. I think if we use a javascript onclick function, that should work. But have you got any solutions yet?

PayPal Developer my apps - how to remove them?

On my PayPal Developer account, under Applications, My apps, I created a REST API app.
I don't need it anymore and want to delete it, but just cannot find the right place to do so. Is deletion not allowed?
Delete App facility is now added in PayPal.
Goto developer.paypal.com
Click My Apps
You will get all applications list
Then look at right side of each application there you will get the "Delete" button.
Clicking it will pops an window
Write your application name in text box and click delete.
That's it.
At this time you can't.
The only thing that you can do is retire an application. Once you retire it, its API credentials become invalid, and the name is displayed as
your app name [RETIRED]

cant login into paypal sandbox site (paypal hell)

I am trying to login to my sandbox account (using chrome) but since the new change in paypal i cant.
PayPal now ask me to log in to the developer site. i do.
and then i go to the applications->sandbox accounts and there press the 'sanbox site' link.
if am lucky then i then get the login screen to the sandbox.
i enter my credentials and click on the login button.
i then get this screen:
I press the "paypal sandbox" link and i return again to the developer.paypal.com site.
ofcurse i use the email address that is listed in my sandbox account.
if i try and use firefox and go to developer.paypal.com i get a very long json response
that start like this
{"data":{"master":"inc/master","googleAnalyticAccountId":
ok i am not giving up i go and delete all my cookies that belong to paypal i then go to
https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/home now i enter my credentials again now i get this screen:
i click the "paypal sandbox" link and i get the long json again :(
another wonderful work by paypal.
btw i contacted paypal on the 8/5/13 but did not get an answer yet.
does anyone know of way to end this hell and be able to use my sandbox again ?
Try clearing all of your cookies and cache prior to opening up your browser window. The once you have done this, open up a browser. Pull up a tab, and navigate to developer.paypal.com and log in. Once you have successfully logged in, you should be able to test your site, or the sandbox site. Open up your site or the sandbox site in a different tab while leaving the developer.com site up.

Can I use the Sandbox and Add to Cart buttons for testing?

Basically, what I want know is whether or not one can test Add to Cart buttons via the sandbox.
I have an Add to Cart button. I click on on it. I am directed to https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr and asked to click on a link to log me into Paypal. I do that and then I am directed to developer.paypal.com where I click on "See our New Sandbox." I then am told to log in again, which I do. the page refreshes and I am logged in. I click on the See Our New Sandbox link again and I see two sandbox accounts, a Business and a Personal. I expand the personal and click on the sandbox link and I am directed to sadbox.paypal.com, where I am asked to log in. I log in ( with my Paypal account ) and then I am asked to click a link to log in to the sandbox, which I do, and once more I am at developer.sandbox.com, with a "See our New Sandbox" link. Click on that link and the circular logging in starts again.
I've tried this on IE, Firefox, Chrome, a separate computer, clearing cache and cookies, and even using an Incognito window, but still the same loop.
Click Add to Cart
Go to Sandbox
Click link to log me in to PayPal
Click on See Our New Sandbox
Login again.
Click on See Our New Sandbox.
Go to one of my sandbox accounts and click on sandbox site link.
Directed to sandbox.paypal.com, log in.
Asked to click link to login.
Directed to developer.sandbox.com, click on See Our New Sandbox.
Go to 6
Months ago, the Sandbox worked great, but now? Loop after loop. Is this being addressed? Can one actually use the Sandbox for Add to Cart buttons? T
As far as i'm aware, the answer to your question is yes. Regarding your problem, I recommend you to open the "Log in into the sandbox" link in a new tab/window, then once you log in, refresh the page that gave you the link, it should work as expected. Another way will be to log in and then go back to your page and click in your Add to Cart button again.

auto redirect from paypal to website

I have a Buy Now button which works fine but my problem is that I want to return to my website after the transaction is complete. a link or something so that the user will not type again the url or hit the back button of the browser . Thanks!
Login to Paypal > Profile > Website Payment Preferences
Within here, enable the auto-return option.
Then enter your return URL - your website.
Please note that Paypal requires you to have some sort of text letting the user know that their transaction has completed.
Hope this helps.

When you are configuring or editing your button, you have the option under Step 3 to "Take customers to this URL when they finish checkout."
Using this, you can not only take them back to your website, but to a specific landing page. You can also designate different landing pages for each type of transaction.
Hope that helps.
