Edit "Search with Google" service to open in a new safari page

I frequently use the search with google service in OSX.
This appears in the contextual menu as "Search in google" and in the services menu as "Search with google".
When I am in Safari and I want to search some word or phrase in google, I am redirected to the google page in the same page I m at. So if I want to search several words in google, I have to do it one by one.
I want to be able to edit this function so the word I am looking is searched in a separate tab or browser window.
I cant find the workflow in the Services folder so I can edit it. Anyone have an idea?
Thank you

this is a built in service not made with automator. You can not edit it. you can try making your own service for this task using automator although I don't quite see how to make one that will do what you want.

  • Suddenly, "Search in Google" service doesn't work

    When I right-click on some copy in most apps, one of the choices is "Search in Google". If I select that, it opens up Safari, and starts a Google search for the highlighted text.
    Now, for no apparent reason, when I try this, I get an error box saying:
    The “Search With Google” service could not be used.
    (Strange that it says "Search WITH Google" when the context menu says "Search IN Google".)
    This happens to me from any app I have - TextEdit, Address Book, iCal, OmniOutliner, DevonThink Pro, Preview, Safari, everything. Yesterday it worked in all those apps. Today, none.
    Any idea why this is happening and what I can do about it?
    Thanks in advance,

  • Opening "Search with Google" in New Tab

    When you highlight text and right click to choose Search With Google, the results are displayed in the same tab. Can the results be opened in a new tab instead?
    Thanks

    See, I get that.
    Here is what I'm looking for. Say, I'm reading an interesting article in Safari and I see a term that I want to search. I highlight the text and Right click to select 'Search with Google'. The results populate in the same tab. I want the result of that in a new tab so I can continue to read the original article and go the new tab to see what google results are...

  • Is there anyway to get the "Search with google" feature in Safari to automatically open in new tab?

    Is there any way to get the "Search with google" feature in safari to automatically open the link in a new tab?
    I am indifferent as to the solution, whether it be an extension, plug-in or apple script using automator as long as it is well documented.
    Have yet to see an elegant solution.

    Hold down the command key while selecting the menu item.

  • Mail wants to use the restricted Service "Search With Google."

    This is the response/error I see when I try to do a Google search from an email message - "Mail wants to use the restricted Service “Search With Google.”"

    Interesting - I just created a new user account I named "Test", and tried "Search With Google" in Notes and it worked fine in this new account.  Without any additional change, I went back into my normal user account, and tried to use "Search with Google" on the highlighted word, and it pulled up the Google search fine as well.  No reason I can think of that these actions would have resolved the problem - e.g., either the creation of the "Test" account, or switching between this "Test" account and my normal account.  Possibly creating new account caused a cleanup of the Safari preferences to point to version 6.0.(essentially reset the default)
    Would be curious if droow007 solution works for others.  Definitely quicker than the route I went :~)

  • Safari (7.1.3) forgets preferences in Mail 7.3, when "search with Google"

    When in Mail 7.3, "Search With Google" on any selected text causes Safari (7.1.3) Icon to bounce in dock and when selected, it opens with a screen to set up my preferences.  As if it were the first time I used Safari. None of my extensions are installed in the safari preferences. 
      When I open Safari first THEN open Mail, then Safari behaves normally.  I am using a non-standard "home page" but Google is my default search engine.  I am running Mavericks  ) 10.9.5.
    Tho it is easy to work around this issue, over time it has made me curiouser & curiouser.  Any help or ideas would be most welcomed, 
      Thanks...

    I installed Photoshop CC (2014) yesterday through the Creative Cloud app. Now, when in Lightroom when I go to "edit in"and select Photoshop CC (2014) and click on "edit copy with Lightroom adjustments",  it opens Photoshop CC (2014) but my photo doesn't show up?  My photo does show up when I click on "edit copy" or "edit original".
    How can I correct that so that I can open up a photo from Lightroom WITH the Lightroom adjustments? Thanks!

    I'm having a similar problem, but only with jpg's. I have PS CS6, CC, and CC 2014. Other image file formats function normally with regard to the "open with" list. PS CC 2014 appears on the list. But with jpg's only PS CC appears on the "open with" list and 2014 can't be added by the browsing for it.
    The curious thing is that if I have any of the three versions of Photoshop open, click on Photoshop CC in the "open with" list, the image opens in whatever version is already open on my computer. This is true of all image formats. No matter which version I pick from the "open with" list it opens in the currently running program. I use only the latest version so keeping it open all the time is an easy work around. I won't uninstall any of the earlier versions lest more file association quirks result. it would be nice to have this matter fixed.

  • When highlighting text and searching with Google, even though my default browser is Chrome, it searches with Safari.  How do I change that?

    Using iMac and Maverick OS.  I have Chrome as my default browser.  I find that going to System Preferences/General under default browser, I note that Chrome is chosen as default, yet the browser "above the line" is Safari and Chrome, while checked off is "below the line".  In other words, the top listed browser is Safari which is unchecked with a line underneath, even though all the other browsers are listed below the line and only Chrome has a check mark. 
    When I am on a website and I select words to search in Google, it always searches with Safari instead of Chrome.  How do I change that?

    Thanks for your response.  I think it was my error in that I did not define the problem properly.  Indeed Chrome is my default browser.  And Maverick does not have a "next line" to default to Google.  I can do that in the Chrome settings. 
    My problem is that when I am in another application.....and it is apparently an application native to Maverick....for example Contacts or Calendar, Reminders, Notes, etc., if I highlight a word or phrase, and right click and choose "search with Google", it defaults to Safari.  How do I change that?

  • Searching with Google

    I trying to make a application that can make searches with google. Is it possible to send a form to the google server. I've made a connection with the
    openConnection class and can read off pages from the web. Is there a class I can submit data with?

    I'm not sure if it is Google or firefox. FF3.6, FF3.6.4, and FF3.6.6 all fail in the same way for me. This behavior just started in the last day or so.
    Your Google searches will work if you don't let Google use Javascript. The most practical way to implement this workaround is with the NoScript add-on, available from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/722 - just allow the sites you trust (good security practice anyway), but DO NOT allow google.com. This will allow your google searches to work while they fix this bug.

  • Right click to search with google

    In Safari when I select a word and right click it I get a menu that has two "search with google" options, one that googles the selected words in the same tap, and the other googles the words in a new tap:
    How can I delete the first one and keep the second?
    and in general how can I customize right click menus in OS X ?

    That issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • How to force weblinks to open in a new Safari window

    Hi,
    This morning, I just upgraded Lion from 10.7.3 to 10.7.4, and I upgraded Safari to Version 5.1.7 (7534.57.2).  Since then, when I click on web links in messages in Mail, they seem to open in a tab in an existing Safari window, where they used to open in a new Safari window, which is what I want.  It also appears that these pages load, they are loading in an existing tab and flushing the history, so tabbed pages end up disappearing with no way to determine exactly what they once were.  My Safari tab preferences are "Open pages in tabs instead of windows:  Never", and the checkboxes below this option are both unchecked.  Any help would be much appreciated, as I usually have multiple Safari windows open, each with 2-4 tabs active, and this current behaviour is quite destructive.
    Thanks,
    Ken

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled under Mac OS X 10.7 or later, you can’t boot in safe mode.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.
