Changing Default Navigation App

Hi all,
I'm new to the Win8 Lumia 920 and so far love it, love it, love it. I got mine through AT&T. I used the voice command to "navigate" to a place however, my only choice was the AT&T app. Is there a way I can change that "default" nav app to nokia drive? I love Nokia drive over AT&T's nav app not to mention it is an extra fee. It is not worth paying versus Nokia drive , I just don't prefer it.
So that's my issue How do I change the default app the phone wants to use (ATT Nav) to Nokia Drive. Thanks in advance for any help.
Dave

Thanks for the quick response however, I don't ask for the specific nav app. I just say "Navigate to Walmart" for example and the voice app says "Starting AT&T Navigator". There is no other option. And if I say "Navigate using Nokia Drive" it saves that command to one note. I am trying to change AT&T Navigator to Nokia Drive when I tell my phone via voice to "Navigate" to wherever.

Changing default map app

Is there any way to change the default map application? I know I can open other Mapping apps, but I specifically mean changing the map application that automatically opens when using other apps. I like the New Mapquest Mobile better, but when I'm using any other app to find a location, they use the default Google Maps. The ability to change this was one of the few things I liked about my Crapberry Curve.

Computer changes default image app from PS to AI by itself

I'm not sure where I should post this. I have my computer set to open all bitmap images in Photoshop (TIFFs, JPEGs, GIFs, BMPs, PNGs, etc). About once a month, my computer decides to make Illustrator the default application for images. It's annoying as bloody hell. Anybody have an idea as to what causes this?

There must be a system or software that updates once a month that is either conflicting and telling the system to see Illustrator as the default or is corrupting the preferences so it looks like Illustrator is the default app.

Trying to find default Navigation

Before the 2.2 update, I had the default navigation app that came with the phone. It was simple and really easy to use, not to mention free. When I updated to 2.2 i was forced to do a reset due to some issues that I was having with other software. Now, no more navigation app. I was wondering if there was a way to get it back.

Didn't the Fascinate originally come with Bing search and VZ Nav? I thought I heard something about Verizon going back to Google for search and maps (who likes Bing anyway). Either way, both VZ nav and google maps can be found in the market (as SFObrien suggested).
Bing is still embedded with the Fascinate unlesss you, well you know. VZ Navigator is optional. A good program but ten bucks a month.

Acer e700 acer nav how to set it as default naviation app

Hello, How do I set the acer nav app as the default navigation app on my e700? Now google maps is always used and I really do not like it. It always send me in weird routes and some how I am always driving a bit next to the roads. My phone is on kitkat 4.4 and rooted if that is any help.

I often use an app called "All Motorhome Parkings" on the play store. Here you can locate a location you can go with your motor home and touch "route". It gives me 4 opens. 1: navigation (grayed out) 2: Sygic (which I do not have) 3: maps 4: Other When choosing "other" instead of maps it still opens Maps for navigation. The same goes for an app called "markplaats" a sort of ebay for the netherlands. (I think ebay even owns it) You can locate where the product you want to buy is located and tap a route button. When I touch the route button I get a pop up asking me how to open it. Chrome or Maps are the only options. Now maybe Igo (which I also have) might be an "alien" app but the Acer Nav app is installed by default on the phone. Why can I not choose this one for my navigation app. Now I always have to go through a lot of trouble not to use google for navigation and launch the app manually and enter the address. This seems very very very old fashioned and feels like some sort of sabotage from google to force people to use maps instead of somethings else. But surely more people have this problem or I am just not seeing how to fix this.

How do I change the default calendar app used by my system?

I am using BusyCal as my calendar application in Mavericks and using Postbox as my email application. They just work better for me than the default mail app and calendar on the Mac. One problem I am having, however, is when I get an email with a date in it, which I want to add to my calendar, it automatically opens up my system Calendar app, not BusyCal, to add the item. Is there a way to change it so that my BusyCal app acts as my default app in these and other situations like this?

Try going into settings > General > international > region format > new zealand.
Hope that works.

How do I change my default messaging app to be Go SMS Pro?

Does Verizon disable the clear default button so that you cannot change your default messging app?

The link on your home page is just a shortcut, all you have to do is remove it and add the link to Go SMS... Open app tray and press and hold on GoSMS and the link will be added to home page and then go to the stock app icon and press and hold and then drag to the recycle bin..
Example: I am using ADW nut the stock UI works basically the same way..

Changing Safari's default mail app...

Anybody know how to change Safari's default mail app??
I don't use Apple Mail, I prefer Entourage and I would love to have it as the default mail app in Safari. When I hit command + I or command + Shift + I , I want Entourage to open, not Mail. Is there any way to do this?
Methods that don't involve going under the bonnet (hood for you Americans) would be preferred.
...but if I must go under the bonnet/hood then I wouldn't mind setting the google bar to go to Google.co.uk not .com
Any suggestions?
Cheers,
Gaberdine

Thanks Ferd II, that's fixed it. And it was painless
It never ocurred to me that I might set my default mail app from within Mail... because I never open it except for when Safari opened it by default (grrr).
I thought I might have to use a hack or Terminal (that's what I meant by going under the bonnet (hood)really) but it turns out to be so simple if you only know how - and that's the absolute joy of these forums.
I suspect changing the default localisation for the Google search bar in Safari would be more complex however...
Cheers,
Gaberdine
Edit: For anybody anybody else who sets Entourage as their default mail app; be aware that it doesn't permit mailing a whole webpage from Safari (Command + I) only the link to the page (Command + Shift + I). Try it and you'll get an alert recommending you use Apple Mail. lol

How do I change the default email app Firefox for Android uses?

I'm using 8SMS as my default messaging app. When I try to share a link, Firefox gives me an error saying that messaging isn't my default app so it can't compose the SMS. Is there a place to change which app Firefox looks for when composing SMS messages?

Did you choose share via 8sms? And what does the error message say exactly?
Thanks

I brought iPad for my nephew logged in with my id and download iWork's which was free. Now as it was against my id I deleted the app and changed default I'd as his, now I try to install iWork's it is asking for payment though iWork's is free on this ipad.

That's because the free apps are already registered to your Apple ID. You can't use them with another Apple ID.

Change default app for DAT files as the su

Hey
I do a lot of work in the terminal and it's sometimes convenient to be "su" permanentely instead of login in and out of the root account. The problem is whenever I try to open a DAT file, it tries to open it with, of all the apps in my Mac, HP Photosmart or something like that -.-
I've done the "cmd+i -> change all" several times now and it only worked for the non-root user...
Does anyone know how to change the deafult app for DAT files as the su (maybe the command line(s) for doing so)??
It's not like it's a life or death thing, it's just that it's a bit annoying having to constantly write "-a Microsoft\ Excel" whenever I want to open such a file (which can be several dozens of times in an afternoon and since the names of the files may change it won't suffice to 'arrow up' to the line previously used =\)
Much appreciated

I'll try that, thanks
I sometimes need it 'cause of permission issues of the files...
(E.g., Some file is sent to me or I'm logged as su to install something using ports and compile/run programs and the output files generated are only readable/editable as su... As I said, it's not a life/death thing, just wanted to know if anyone knew how to fix it once and for all )
I'll post the result as soon as I've tried the proposed solution

How can I change the contacts app settings to view by groups?

When I had an iPod Touch (3rd generation), I was able to sort my contacts by groups by using another app and then when I launched the default contacts app I could tap the "Groups" button and I saw a list of them (Family, Friends, Businesses, etc). That way, I could tap the group I wanted and only view those contacts. Now I'm using an iPhone (4th generation with iOS 6.1.2) and it is the most obnoxious contacts system in the world. I now have to unselect every group I don't want to see, and it's a pain-in-the-neck to get Facebook contacts assigned to groups as the app I use to assign contacts to groups isn't "permitted" to use those contacts that are from Facebook or those who don't have a Facebook link unless I add them and delete the old. I work with a nonprofit organization and I have a lot of contacts for various businesses through them but I shouldn't have to unselect 12 different groups just to view a single group. I've tried looking in settings and can't figure out how to change this. I must have over 100 contacts and this is a pain to deal with. Did Apple really think this was the best change they ever made to the contacts app? Considering they still haven't implemented the ability to assign contacts to groups...
Another thought is why not also view contacts by business or "theme"? Such as, what if you have a large, extended family and might want to view just 1 section (like my cousins' family who have various last names due to marriage). This is why being able to view by group is so important to me but if I create 5 different groups for family and friends, that means I have to unselect 4 of them AND all the other groups for businesses, work, community, etc just to view the specific contacts. So, did Apple change this or am I just not seeing how to view them the way I want?

I assume that you are in Germany ? Try going to the bottom of the Featured tab in the App Store app on your iPad and tap on your account id, tap on 'View Apple ID' on the popup and log into your account, and then select the Country/Region section and select Germany.
