Google Search Field in Safari

Is it possible to change the Google Search Field within a Safari browser to be specific to the country you live in? Eg. I want mine to be a Google AU search field as opposed to just Google.
Thanks.

If you want to fix your Google search to Google Australia, I recommend that you download and install the free plug-in Glims:

which not only does that but also much more equally useful stuff!
(It adds items to Safari Preferences).

  • Cmd+v doesn't paste in the file upload dialogue's search field in Safari

    In Safari 4.0.4 on OS X 10.6.2, cmd+v doesn't paste in the file upload dialogue's search field in Safari. It just makes an audio beep to indicate an error.
    Using a sample file uploader:
    1.) Visit http://upload.youtube.com/myvideosupload
    2.) Click the "Upload Video" button.
    3.) Select file(s) to upload to s.ytimg.com
    4.) Click on the search text field
    *5.) Cmd+V to paste text. Nothing happens.*
    However, if you right-click, "Paste" is not grayed out, and you can paste normally.
    This is for version 4.0.4, but this behavior has been present for as long as I can remember using Safari.
    Can anyone confirm this bug?

    HI,
    I can't confirm a bug but you can report it.
    From the Safari Menu Bar click Safari/Report Bugs to Apple.

  • As of this morning, I am being redirected to uk.gomeo when i click on google search results in Safari. Do I have a virus?

    Hi,
    First time poster and very non-techy person here. I am being redirected to urls starting "uk.gomeo..." when clicking on Google search results in Safari. Quick search on this seems to suggest I have a virus. Not sure what to do or how to get rid of it. Not sure what could have caused it either. Downloaded Acrobat update couple of days ago which took hours, and Twitter account was hacked about a week ago. All software updates up to date. Any advice much appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Sorry editing that way doesn't work anymore in Lion. But you can look and see if there are any google entries in it. If there are not any google entries you can ignore my posts. If there are try this:
    Open terminal
    sudo nano /etc/hosts
    When prompted for the sudo password - The correct password is your own (the password of the user logged into OS X, also the password you provide when doing system updates and so on).
    now you can delete the line(s) that contain google and save.
    Using your arrow keys go to the line containing google. Delete the line. Do the same for all lines containig google.
    if you have a problem deleting, do a control-x to exit, and reply n to the modified buffer question. To save your changes do a  control-o and hit enter , then do a control-x to quit.
    Note: normally you never edit the hosts file, but if you see google entries in it then a malware programs has added them. It has been happening with a bogus flash update, that installs flash and asks for your system password. SOmething that seem quite normal when installing software. This bogus flash update makes the hosts modifications adding their own IP adrress for google.

  • How to delete google search history in safari on itouch ?

    Hi All !
    I would like to know how I can delete the google search history in safari?
    Thanks

    I just found the answer somewhere else in the forum - it worked for me.
    Clear it while in Safari by going to bookmarks, then "History," and then the "Clear" button in the bottom left.

  • Google search field - missing "red arrow"

    Hi,
    not sure why but my "red arrow" in the Google search field has disappeared.
    You know, the arrow which appeared after you clicked a search result allowing you to return to the latest search you have done...
    Any ideas how to get it back?

  • Google search field is now eBay

    After upgrading to Firefox 4.01, my Google Search field just to the right of the URL address field, has now become an eBay Search. I do not want this and I want it changed back to Google. Can someone please help me with this?
    Thank you!

    The search bar (the field where you type in the search terms) should have a little down arrow click on that. You will then get a list of search engines to choose from and should be able to choose Google from that. You also get an option to manage the search engines that allows you to add or remove them, or reset to the default search engines.
    * see [[search bar]] <-- clickable link ---
    Post back with how you get on.
    (In some cases installed software may be making changes to Firefox settings)
    * see also [[searches are redirected to another site.]]

  • Is URL data in Unified Smart search field in Safari shared with Google?

    I note that Safari 6 now has a unified smart URL and search field.  Does this mean that every URL that is typed into this field is shared with Google?  In other words is this another way for Google to collect data about our online habits and which sites we visit and so on? 

    Unfortunately, Google is still an excellent search engine. It isn't quite as good as it used to be, but still better than any competitors. Maybe things will improve. Here are some upstart search engines to try:
    duckduckgo.com
    Ixquick Search Engine

  • Can the Google search box in Safari be made to use the UK Google search page?

    I've only just realised, (after nearly eight months of Mac ownership!), that my Google search results seem to be rather US-oriented.
    I think this is because the search box in Safari, which I do have set to Google as my default, is using the US Google.com search engine instead of the Google.co.uk one.
    Am I correct in thinking this? And, if I am, is there any way of tweeking Safari to use the UK version please?
    I'm using Safari 5.0.5

    If you want to fix your Google search to a specific Google location, I recommend that you download and install the free plug-in Glims:

    which not only does that but much more equally useful stuff! Such as enabling Safari to run full-screen, and more.)
    (It adds items to Safari Preferences).
    Not only does it already list a number of search engines and regions, but you can also add any other search engine not already listed in Glims by using the method described here:

    Just enter the name you give the search engine in the name field, and the URL for it in the Query URL field.

  • Where is the search field in Safari 6.0?

    I have completed the Apple Software update today of several programs, but have not yet updated to MT. Lion.  My Safari browser now seems to be lacking a search box/field in the upper right.  I think that prior to the update there was such a box in the upper right of the url address box.  Can this be restored, or am I imagining things?  Thanks.

    The search field is now part of the address bar. Putting anything into it other than a website address will perform a Google search.

  • How do I get google search in my Safari address bar?

    I have a MacBook Pro with Lion 10.7.  Apple store just reloaded the 10.7.  Everything works except that the google search is no longer in the Safari address bar.  How to I get that back?  Thanks.

    Safari preferences, General icon, select preferred search engine from dropdown menu. Or do you mean the Search Field? If so, it's not used anymore. Use the URL field to search.

  • Can't go back to original Google search page in Safari 5.0.2 update

    A couple of days ago updated Safari to 5.0.2. I used to do a Google search, advance thru a few pages, on a link, and then click the "return" arrow in the Google box, top right, and would be returned to my "original" search page. In the Safari 5.0.2, the "return arrow" isn't there anymore. Where is it?? Very annoying, requiring more entries now to get back to my "original" search. Did Apple remove this or is it just turned off. Thanks!,

    Don't know what that is. There used to be an arrow in the google box at top right that aloud me to go back to the original page. But now if I search google from the bookmarks bar.. no arrow appears. So, what is the Snap Back from the extensions gallery??

  • How Do I Change Google Search Results in Safari 3.1?

    I travel a lot. Currently I'm in India. When I was using Safari 3.0, the Google Search Bar search results were always from google.com. Now that I've upgraded to 3.1, the search results are from google.co.in.
    How do I get the search bar to give me .com results again?

    Unless they've changed it in the past year, the auto-complete on Inquisitor was a deal-breaker. It kept on completing words that I didn't want to type.
    Inquisitor has changed a lot over the past year. I used to use AcidSearch. This has it beat hands down.
    Unless directed otherwise, I believe Google adapts the search function to your location based on the IP. Hence, the "Indian search".
    Back to Inquisitor, one picture is worth a thousand words.

  • Dead Google Search Links in Safari

    After making a Google search, I hit the 'back' button, only to find all of the links on the page frozen. This happens ALL the time in my Safari Google searches. Is anybody experiencing a similar issue?
    For example:
    1) I search "Martin Luther King" in Google (typing into the Google search box in the Safari toolbar).
    2) Google shows the search results.
    3) I click on an item to read it.
    4) After reading the article, I hit the 'back' button to return to my search.
    5) None of the search results are clickable. They're all dead. Not a single link on the page works. (Control-click does nothing, either)
    This happens on a daily basis, with nearly all of my Google searches.
    I have done many re-sets of Safari caches, etc. This incredibly frustrating problem continues.

    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
    If you wish, you may be able to salvage the errant extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. Its settings will revert to their defaults. If the extension still causes a problem, remove it permanently or refer to its developer for support.
