Change Captivate 4 Default Browser

Have 3 browsers installed (IE 8, Firefox, and Opera).
In Windows, Firefox is the default browser that displays.
In Captivate, Opera is the default.
How do I change it in Captivate to have Firefox be the default browser?

Captivate Usually takes the windows default password. I am not sure how come its using Opera for you. But to cange it back to Firefox you can set the default windows browser to Firefox once again which will reset the browser for Captivate also.
To set Firefox as default go to Firefox->Options->Options->Advanced->General->click on "Make Firefox My Default Browser".
There are chances that the button will not appear for you since it is already your default browser so for that you can change the default browser to something else first and then try the above steps again.
Just a workaround I hope it helps

Could not initialize the application's security component when clicking on a hyberlink from LotusNotes, default browser Firefox

I have Lotus Notes 8.5 installed on Windows 7 computer.
Firefox 4.0.1 works fine.
But when I change FF as default browser and launch a hyperlink from My mail client I get an error "Could not initialize the application's security component. The most likely cause is problems with files in your browser's profile directory. Please check that this directory has no read/write restrictions and your hard disk is not full or close to full. It is recommended that you exit the browser and fix the problem. If you continue to use this browser session, you might see incorrect browser behavior when accessing security features."
After this error I can open tabs but no website will work.
But if I close Firefox and reopen it will work.
When Firefox is running, if I click the hyberlink from my mail client, it launches without error message and works fine.
Gave Write access to profile folder. replaced cert8.db etc, but it is not helpful.
I installed Firefox 4 - same.
Installed Firefox 5 beta - same.
Installed Firefox 3.6.17 - error message is there but Firefox keeps working after launch.

In Mac OS X v10.7, the $HOME/Library folder is a hidden folder.
Open Finder and use one of these:
* Go > Go To Folder (Shift-Command-G) and in the dialog type: ~/Library
* Open the "Go" menu and hold down the Option key to make the Library appear
You can also use this command in a Terminal window to remove the hidden flag.
* Mac HD > Applications > Utilities > Terminal
* chflags nohidden ~/Library

Default Browser

This may be better placed in the JDev forum, but hopefully someone in here has come across this before.
I have a number of OAF projects that I run using local OC4J. At some point today I set my default browser to be Firefox to test running in that browser. I had problems with this (proxy) so want to revert to IE.
How can this be done? i.e. ensure JDev opens a project in IE when running?? I assume it has been set in a system file somewhere, but I can't find it. My PC default browser is IE now!!
Thanks in advance

I believe this is Browser setting and nothing to do with Jdev. You can set a default browser in your machine and by default OC4J should pick that at run time..
You can go to IE -> Tools -> Internet Options -> program
and check 'Internet Explorer should check to see whether it is the default browser.'
restart IE and it should ask you about changing IE as default browser. I hope this should solve your purpose..
Cheers,
Sumit

How to change the default browser in Xfce

Hi all,
I just installed Arch and am still using Openbox, but I was looking for info on how to change my default applications. After reading through several posts and documentation pages, I came across two handy files in my /usr/share/applications folder called, simply enough, Preferred Applications. For other newbies out there trying to change their default browser and having trouble succeeding with
$ nano /usr/bin/xdg-open
this seems to be a pretty quick fix. It feels pretty obvious, so I'm not sure if it's a warranted post, but I know it was a neat feature to discover and thought others might benefit.

You may want to mark your post as "[SOLVED]" so people that are looking for this info know that it is not just a question that has not been answered. And so people that are looking to help don't open and read through to find out it is not needed.
Or edit the title of the post to say "A way to change..." or something so it looks less like a question.

How to change default browser to Firefox.

Hi,
I've upgraded our Solution Manager 7.0 to EHP1. Most of the applications that I use: sld, smd, user admin, etc. run fine in my default browser, Firefox.
But when I use a workcenter, RCA for example, and I open a webdynpro application which runs on a separate browser window, Internet Explorer is always used. How can I change this behaviour to choose the right default browser ?
Regards,
Joan

Hi Joan,
You can set in your Firefox. Go to Tools->Options. Choose the Main tabs, then press button Check Now in system default and if your firefox not set as default browser you will be asked to change the default browser from IE to firefox. I've been using firefox as default browser to test workcenter service.
Hope it helps.
Rgds,

I work with a web app that will not run on Firefox, so I changed my default browser back to IE but the URL link continues to open in Firefox. How can I get it to default to IE?

After changing my default browser from Firefox back to IE, other URLs are defaulting to IE but I have one URL that continues to default to Firefox. This web app will only run in IE so the only way I can run it is to open IE first and then enter or select the URL. Is there a setting someplace that will change the default browser for this URL to be IE?

You can make IE the default browser, that will reset some registry keys 
Control Panel > Internet Options: Programs 
Put a check in the box next to 'Internet Explorer should check to see whether it is the default browser' 
Start IE and let IE make itself the default browser.
Check the default settings in: 
Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs > "Set Program Access And Defaults" (on the left) 
Open: Custom (click arrow on the right) 
Select "Internet Explorer" under "Choose a default Web Browser" 
Click OK

How do I change my default browser in apple mail to firefox

I would like to change my default browser in (Lion) Apple mail from Safari to Firefox - I don't like the small Safari screen that pops up and I'm also finding the full screen in Safari a bit of a challenge

So - 43 months - yes, FORTY-THREE MONTHS, and this still has no answer!
We're all on Yosemite now, and still Apple Mail invokes Safari whenever you try to search on content. Safari's preferences are set to Firefox, Firefox's preferences are (of course) set to Firefox. And there is no setting in Mail to specify a preference.
Come on Apple - we thought you were way too cool to use Microsoft's dirty 'browser monopoly' tricks! Please, please let us have access to a proper browser. Please? Pretty please?
Or do I have to trash Mail and switch to Thunderbird?

How do I change my default browser when Safari won't open? (crashes)

I have not been able to get Safari to run, it crashes when trying to open it. I was going to change to a different default browser until I figured out a fix or had time to reinstall the OS (the solution offered by apple tech support) but the only way I know of to change the default browser is a preference inside safari - one that I can't get to. Does anyone know what file I can manually edit on my machine to change that preference setting without opening Safari? Many thanks in advance!

Hello Dorsey
Camino
Omniweb
Opera
Shira & Firefox
I am using Shira & it is a very fast browser, however i would run permissions repair & a disk repair, first if Safari can not be opened long enough to set the default ( You set the default In Safari Preferences->> General tab-> Default Web Browser:)
Are you using IE or other browser to download the browser of your choice?

How to disable updates and hide set as default browser option in firefox 31.0 for many users,like changing the setttings in any file

Hi,
I am trying to disable updates, set as default browser option and import settings from other browers permanently for many users for firefox 31.0.
can you please help me with that. I know settings are going to prefs.js file in user profile. How can make this permanent for many users.

Hi gaurav3012,
Permanent change would be locking preferences: [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences]
However importing many users profiles to different computers may require a new profile for each user.
Currently there is an option to import bookmarks from other browsers, but not preferences.
Update preferences can be read about here: [[Configuration Options for Updates]]
Firefox ESR is also another version of Firefox that is meant for Enterprise environments [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/organizations/] that mostly has their support on their mailing list.

Firefox is my default browser, yet a direct e-mail link brings up IE. I use Hotmail for all my mail, Can I change something so a direct e-mail links brings up hotmail in firefox rather than IE?

When I click on a direct e-mail link (e.g."send mail") Hotmail (my e-mail of choice) comes up in IE even though Firefox is my default browser. Can I change something so that it brings up Hotmail in firefox?

Please post info:
In Thunderbird
Help > Troubleshooting Information
click on 'copy text to clipboard'
paste info into this question
remove/edit all info on fonts and printers. but nothing else.
Please state which account is set as default.
It will appear at the top of your Folder Pane and Account Settings.
Go into Tools > account Settings
select the top mail account
click on 'Account Actions'
Is the 'set as default' greyed out? This means it is already set as default.

I have imported bookmarks from Safari to Firefox but the bookmarks bar does not change in Firefox and match that of Safari. That's the part I need most. Any ideas why? Also, I don't see where to choose for Firefox to be my default browser.

I use a Imac with OS 10.6.7. I've just uploaded Firefox 4. I had Firefox 3 already but do not use it often. I've been using Safari. I imported bookmarks from Safari to Firefox, but the bookmarks bar in Firefox did not change to match that of Safari, and that's where the important bookmarks are. Any ideas?
Also, I can't find where to choose Firefox as my default browser.

Copy the files from the old Profile into the new Profile, replacing the existing files that are in the new Profile. That will make your new installation just like the old one.
Or if you just want your bookmarks, copy only the '''places.sqlite''' file from the old Profile into the new Profile.

How do I change my default browser on my MBP back to Safari?

I made the mistake of changing my default browser to Google Chrome on my MBP. I have it on my Dad's Dell, only cause I updated that to Windows 7 and needed to update the browser settings on that. That change on my MBP transfered the Norton & MaFee as well.
Now it won't let me change back to Safari. I'm not thrilled with 'data sharing'and 'data mining' aspects of Chrome.
My MBP is using 10.9.1 Mavericks.
How do I change my default browser back to Safari from Google Chrome?

Open Safari, then go to Preferences. You can change the default browser in those settings.

I need to know how to change default browser for my desktop icloud apps to open with.

I like to use the desktop icloud apps, but when i use them, they open with IE when my default browser I like to use is Chrome. Is there a way to make it open with Chrome when I open Calendar or iCloud from my desktop instead of IE?
thankyou for your help in advance!

Ed...maybe a little less time gaming and a bit more time in English class? They got this thing called punctuation and sentences now. Last things first; there is no amount of money that can change your GPU so you can scratch that expense off the list. So you need a battery and a fan? Where do you live? USA? We can help you find a battery but where did you plan to have the new fan put in?

Change Default browser, Nokia E6 Belle

Hi,
I recently upgraded to Belle, is there any way to open links from email with Opera, not default browser.
The settings->Default Apps is not working.
Can I expect fixing of this problem soon?
Thanks
Moderator's note; Corrected post title and removed corrective post.

Well, I am Nokia 500 user and I have exactly the same problem. Default browser settings are simply ignored in Belle. Previously I have used Symbian Anna and there Opera Mobile was set (by me) as default browser and it was working as expected - means links opened from email client were opened in Opera. After upgrading to Belle, Opera Mobile still can be set as default browser, but this setting is simply ignored.
I am not so sure if it is Opera developers fault, otherwise why it was working on Symbian Anna ???
If nokia programmers have changed some standards (if they did - I do not have such knowledge) they should also support some backward compatibility. From my point of view (user point of view) it is simply regression. I have also reported this problem to Nokia Care without any result and response. Since that time I am checking updates regularly and instead reasonable fixes I got several minor updates related to social networking or alike . It is frustrating.
In fact currently I am not even sure who should I bother with this problem, Nokia developers or Opera developers ?
