Skype does not use the default browser.

I DONT WANT ANYTHING TO DO WITH BING.   GETTING SICK AND TIRED OF SKYPE CHANGING MY SEARCH ENGINE WITHOUT MY PERMISSION. ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY GIVE ME AN OPTION AND I REFUSE. THIS TELLS ME THAT THIS IS INTENTIONAL AND NOT A BUG. 

Skype has an optional make Bing my search engine selection.  It's never set Bing as my search engine if I didn't keep it selected thought it may have updated the list of available search providers (currently my list is Bing, Yahoo, and Google, though I could add more) in case I change my mind.   Skype doesn't install anything from Yahoo.  If something like that was installed it came from another installer. Skype uses IE's engine in the background but that shouldn't affect your default browser.  If you find some add activity occurring make sure your IE is up to date and reset IE to it's defaults.  This will ensure the IE engine is up to date and that everything is reset properly.  After an IE reset you can set your default browser back to your browser of choice.  Download and install the latest IE  (if not already updated)

  • Stagewebview is not using the default browser?

    Hello community,
    We encounter an issue regarding the userAgent we get with Javascript when our page is viewed from an Android App running Air and using the Stagewebview.
    We noticed that despite the default browser set as Google Chrome (Webkit v.537), we identify that app using Webkit v.534.
    After a lot of trouble shooting, it seems that there is a difference between "native" browser and "default" browser.
    Is that correct?
    If so, the question is: Is there a way to make Stagewebview use the user selected browser/engine ?
    Our website needs to display text vertically (japanese text) and the form elements are not well recognized in the 534 version browser, but work perfectly in the last version of Chrome we can get running on those devices.
    (We target Android 4.2+ users)
    Any input will be appreciated.
    Cedric Simon

    Hello ArkadiuszOkoń,
    I downloaded the 4.4W sdk and replaced the file as proposed, but I don't notice any change.
    On Desktop, I can see that Air webkit 533 is used. did my compile really took the new file into configuration?
    I'm using FlashDevelop, are there settings to change in the bat fie or in the manifest?
    As you proposed about the <uses-sdk> settings, some are already setup and I didn' change them, should I higher the minSdkVersion for example?
    Here is the current section:
      <android>
        <manifestAdditions><![CDATA[<manifest android:installLocation="auto">
      <uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="8" />
      <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
      <uses-feature android:required="true" android:name="android.hardware.touchscreen.multitouch" />
    </manifest>]]></manifestAdditions>
      </android>
    Also, Jan-F-W, thank you for your proposal,
    I should explain something else:
    The app is using "stagewebviewbridge" package that one can find here : stagewebviewbridge -  Extend Adobe AIR StageWebView ( Desktop, iOS, Android ) - Google Project Hosting
    We do not have access to the source code of that app, but we have to investigate the case and propose a solution otherwise the development company in charge will not make a single move.
    So I created a sample application that loads a page on my machine and that displays the userAgent to check what engine is running.
    (in that case, I can use a StageWebView directly if I want)
    I can see that depending on the useNative boolean parameter of StageWebView I get a different userAgent, which is great.
    BUT, I had a doubt on mobile, as stated by Adobe Documentation: This parameter is ignored on mobile.
    In doubt, I checked on the mobile device, and in both base, the device "native" browser is used, not the Chrome set as "default".
    Maybe my tests are not accurate enough? I'm not a flash developer, so I feel a bit lost there.
    Thank you for your guidance.

  • Data field FUNCTIONAL_YN does not support the default value (Message 14120)

    L.S.,
    When defining a data type of category NC, I would like to use data fields of type checkbox. At NC logging data entry the checkbox should be "checked" by default.
    When looking for the proper value to indicate that the ccheckbox is selected, I have tried values like: 0, 1, TRUE, FALSE, T, t, X, x ... etc. But always I got the same error message:
           "Data field FUNCTIONAL_YN does not support the default value (Message 14120)"
    What should be the right value?
    Kind regards, Hans

    Hans,
    It looks as if by means of GUI you cannot specify default state of being selected for Checkbox field. The default state is unselected.
    It is easier to invert the statement in the label of the field so that an operator could use unselected state as default.
    Regards,
    Sergiy

  • My table of contents does not use the entry style I select for words in the paragraph that have character styles applied to them in the chapter, so some of the letters are showing up as green, which is fine in the chapter but not in the TOC.

    My table of contents does not use the entry style I select for words in the paragraph that have character styles applied to them in the chapter, so some of the letters, specifically parameters, are showing up green, which is fine in the chapter but not in the TOC. I can manually fix this in the TOC by changing the character style to none after the toc  has been generated, but I don't want to do this.

    Great exercise to document the problem like this.  It got me thinking about how an app with modules would be different from an app that does not use modules.  Solution: I moved the dummy reference of PersonPhotoView out to the main application file (as opposed to being inside the module) and it worked.  I've probably been lucky not to have experienced this problem earlier, because for most other entities I have an instance attached to my model which is linked / compiled with the main application.

  • Excel 2010 not using the default print settings

    Currently got an issue with Excel 2010 not using the default print settings for a couple of users on our network,
    basically when pressing cntrl P or selecting the print option from the file menu the printer settings are different to the print settings selected in the devices and printers menu, we have checked the print drivers etc but this has still not resolved the
    issue, all other office programs are fine and also other users are reporting this issue more and more with different printers,
    tried restarting print spooler service and re-installing office but this has come to no avail,
    any ideas would be much appreciated!

    Hi,
    This issue occurs because the Page Setup settings that you specify in your file override the settings that you specify in the printer driver properties.
    To work around this issue, do not specify the paper size, page orientation, or page margins in the printer driver properties. Instead, specify these settings in your workbook.
    To specify these settings, follow these steps:
    1.Start Excel, and then open the workbook you want to change.
    2.In Microsoft Office Excel 2010, click the sheet that you want to print, and then click the Page Layout tab. In the Page Setup group, click Page Setup to open the Page Setup dialog box.
    3.Click the Page tab.
    4.Under Paper size, click the paper size that you want.
    5. Click Options button and in Printing Shortcuts tab, in the Paper source area, perform one of the following steps:  ◦If the printer can automatically select the correct paper tray to use, click Default tray in the First page list, and then click Default
    tray in the Other pages list.
    Default tray is the default setting in both of these lists.
    ◦If the printer cannot automatically select the correct paper tray to use, you may have to select the paper tray that contains the paper size that you selected in step 4.
    To do this, click the appropriate paper tray in the First page list and in the Other pages list.
    6.If you want to change the page orientation or its page margins, click the Finishing tab.
    7.Select the options that you want.
    8.Click OK.
    9.Repeat steps 2 to 8 for each sheet of your workbook for which you want to specify settings.

  • BOE 3.0 Designer does not show the table browser

    Hi,
    I am using BOE 3.0. I was able to view the table browser a few days back. After I changed the license key, the designer stopped showing me the table browser. I am logging into Designer with Administrator previleges. Although the Administrator has "Full control", but when I click on "Insert->Tables" in designer it does not do anything, not even display the table browser. I have created Oracle client connection and tested it. The server is responding, but the insert-> tables does not work.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    SUS.

    1. When you invoke table browser using Insert->Tables do you see progress bar below the designer (task Bar)
    Sus: Yes I can see the progress bar. It exists for a few seconds and then disapperas,but does not do anything.
    2. Can you try invoking Table browser by double clicking on Universe designer pane.
    Sus: Yes I tried, but nothing happened. I mean I could not see the table browser
    3. Can you check if Designer can connect to your DB.
    Sus: Yes the designer is able to connect to the DB. I tested the connection and got the message "Server is responding". In fact when I am using the quick design wizard I can able to see the tables from my DB.
    4. How many tables do you have in DB, IF there are lot many table then it might table time to load those tables
    Sus: Currently my DB contains almost 40(20 tables and 20 views). I don't think it is concern. I worked with DB which contains more than this and that time I did not face this issue.
    5. Can you strategies tab in parameters (File->Parameters). What is the strategy for Tables. Try using built-in strategy.
    Sus: Yes it is built-in for tables. It is the default one and I did not change it.
    Is there a limit set to insert tables in designer?

  • New MySites does not use the specified permissions

    I've changed the MySite Settings in Central Admin so that only my AD group called "DOMAIN\All employees" is added to the Read Permission Level setting. I've removed "All" and "All Windows".
    Now users create MySites, and at first the permissions seems right. When I check top level permission on new mysite, only the user and the group "DOMAIN\All employees" is present in the list.
    The problem is that the folder "Shared with everyone" and the lists "Social" and "Microfeed" does not get the correct permissions. When I check the permissions (since they have unique permissions) I can see that it is the claim
    "All" that has access, not my "DOMAIN\All employees" group.
    This means that the documents added to the "Shared with everyone" is available for all users, not only my employees. The same is for content in the social lists, the elements are visible in search results for all users.
    Does anyone know how I can change the default permissions of the folder and the two lists that does not inherit permissions from the root web of the mysite?
    Regards ElinK
    ElinK

    Hi
    ElinK,
    There is no out of the box way to accomplish this with SharePoint
    As you had said, one way is that we can use the code to change the MySite list permission for the existed MySite.
    Another way is that we can create MySite programmatically, break inheritance and add unique permission to List.
    There are some articles for your reference.

  • Skype does not recognize the .moe TLD

    As the title indicates, Skype does not recognize any link with a .moe TLD. They are sent as plain text and any recepient then has to manually copy and paste the URL. This as you imagine become quite a hassle.
    Was wondering if the .moe TLD is added to the list of proper URLs in the coming Skype updates. And if so, is there an ETA on the next Skype update that will have proper support.
    Seems odd Skype is the only program I've used that doesn't automatically recognize all web links. They even are linked in a standard format: http://webname.moe
    Thank you for your help.

    Bumping this to gain more visibility.
    Perhaps add into Skype that all text that resembles a web-link be shown as a link?
    http* (so for http://stuff and https://stuff)
    and perhaps:
    www.*.
    Not sure, I'm not a coder, but would love to see this feature. As I said in my main post, literally every other application I have used but Skype can recognize any links I use, even all those obscure TLDs / gTLDs. I'm pretty sure the Skype devs are smart enough to figure it out

  • Treo800w does not use the ringer volume I have set

    I have my 'Phone: Known Caller' ringer setting set to the standard Treo ring tone that came preinstalled on the Treo800w. I have the 'Ring type' set to Ring but NO matter how high or low I set the ringer volume it only rings at the lowest volume setting when a call comes in.  It's so low that I basicly miss every call. I have tried changing to other ring tones and the same thing happens.  The ringer seems to work correctly when the Ring type is set to 'Increasing Ring' but that starts out so low that it does not increase the ring volume enough before the call goes to voicemail.  I need my ringer to use a relatively high ring tone volume setting.Has anyone else experienced this?  If so, what did you do to resolve it? 
    Post relates to: Treo 800w (Sprint)
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    I got a response to this from Paulcalif in another thread: "Have you tried "rebooting" by removing the battery and putting it back in. Try setting the volume all the way up first, then reboot it."
    Lil Red:  This seems to have worked although I still think there is a bug in the software.  If I set the ringer volume to a different volume level the phone does not seem to respond. Oh well, as long as it rings loud then for the most part i'm good to go.

  • Java Dynpro does not used portal default theme.

    Dear Expert,
    We have recently upgraded our support pack and everything works fine except the portal theme. We have our customize portal theme and we make it as the default portal theme. Everything looks fine with the portal where the customize theme is loaded. However when I call up some standard Java Web Dynpro application such as the Overview page or Leave Application, it is using the SAP default template (SAP_TRADESHOW). So it is a bit wierd where each part of the portal is using our customize theme but the content area where the Java Dynpro is loaded is using the SAP default theme.
    When i am trying to view the source of the content area (Overview Page). It is showing something like this.
      <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="../../../resources/sap.com/tc~wd~dispwda/global/SSR/themes/sap_tradeshow/ur/ur_ie6.css">

          border: 0px;
          width: 0px;
          height: 0px
      </style>
    When I compare it with my production (before the support pack upgrade and everything is fine), the code are as below.

    Anyone know how to default the standard Java Dynpro to use the customize portal default there?

  • List users of specific databases that are not using the default storage quotas

    I have an Exchange 2010 SP3 DAG with 4 databases. I am trying to use powershell to find out, per database, which mailboxes are
    not using the "mailbox database defaults", which is unlimited in this case (no quotas for Issue warning, Prohibit send, and Prohibit send and receive).
    Something like "get-mailbox | where  {$_.UseDatabaseQuotaDefaults -ne $true} will not work because I just want the data for specific databases".
    I have also tried "get-mailbox -database nameofdatabase | where {$_.UseDatabaseQuotaDefaults -ne $true} | out-file c:\temp\nameofdatabase.tx" but it lists some users that show unlimited for all categories and others some that have limits on certain
    other ones. In short, it is not correct.
    HDL

    Hi,
    From your description, I would like to clarify the following thing:
    Running the Get-Mailbox -Database MBX1 | Where-Object {$_.usedatabasequotadefaults -eq $false} cmdlet will list all mailboxes who have a custom storage quota. But it only displays the value of ProhibitSendQuota. You can check the values of other storage
    quotas via EMC.
    EMC -> Recipient Configuration -> Mailbox -> double click the mailbox -> Mailbox Settings -> Storage Quotas
    Hope my clarification can be helpful to you.
