How to change the default browser for "Search in Google" pop-up menu?

This issue has come up for the last three OS X releases, at least, and it's still here for Lion.
I'm in Apple Mail and select some text. I want to search on the term using Google. Right-click brings up the context menu with "Search in Google." This inevitably results in Safari opening for the search.
Chrome is definitely set as my default browser. Clicking links in email messages brings them up in the proper browser. "Search in Google" does not. Wherever this context menu item is selected (Mail, TextEdit, etc.) it opens Safari instead of the default browser.
As far as I'm concerned, that makes the context menu item useless, since I do not use Safari.
Has anyone figured out a workaround?
Has anyone in the OS X team at Apple paid attention to this issue? It is not new.

This post helped me.
https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=147510
Basically, the "Search in Google" extension is from Safari and it can be disabled in System Preferences.
System Preferences -> Keyboard -> Keyboard Shortcuts -> Services -> Searching and unchecking "Search with Google"
It worked for me and I also disabled a few other right-click options that I never use.

Anyone know how to change the default font for the new pages? Apparently it does not even come up when I search the 'Help' section of Pages. The level of incompetence in this new version seems breathtaking

I cannot find how to change the default font in the new Pages. It does not appear in the Help area when I search for it. I am never sing Helvetica for my standard documents and cannot seem to change it. What am I missing? And why does Pages help not have an easy answer?

You open a blank template and change the font to you liking. Remember to also get all the styles changed with new font. Then Save As Template. Now you have a template with the font you like.

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 the default langauge for logon-Urgent

Hi All,
I need to set the default language for the web-UI login (say english). Could you please help me how can I do it?
My scenario is:
Lets say if the end user is launching Web-UI from Germany (His browser default langauage will have German most of the time), Web-UI is picking German as default language while my client wants to show everything in English to everyone despite of any langauge in the browser.
I have already set logon language to english in SU01/ in the service login data via SICF but still Web-UI is picking langauge from the browser, while If I am launching web-UI from my favourite list (in which i have set two paramater sy-langu = 'E' and sap-langauge = 'EN') then web-UI is not picking langaue from the browser.
But in the ideal scenario user will launch Web-UI from the portal (Which can have diffrent diffrent application coming from diffrent-diffrent system and I want to change the language only for web-UI application which is coming from CRM) not from the favourite list.
Kindly provide me your input.
Thanks and regards,
Sandeep

Palete Image trace: How to change the default settings for icon?

Hi!
New palette and action Image tracer is a good step forward and work better, thank you.
This palette has a built-in icons, which significantly accelerate the selection. How do I change the default action?
I know that you can save presets, but this is different. The icons are even faster and more practical.
eg I want to icon B & W automatically have enabled the option "Ignore White".
Best Regards!

No, there's no way to do that, and that's because Lightroom works best as a single catalogue. You have metadata fields like Job which can track individual assignments.
What you could do is create an empty catalogue with settings as you want, then copy the file each time you want to set up a new catalogue.

How to Change the default format for differnt language both in java and SQL

Hello,
I am using SQL Anywhere in my application.And in my java client application user can log in with their preferred language like English,French,German,Chinese,etc....When even the user log in to the application the data from the database will be displayed with respective to the language.But when i tried to see the dates in Interactive SQL all the dates r in the format of '2008-12-5 16:44:10:673' but say for example for Chinese it will be displayed as '08-12-5 16.44.10' and for some other language it will come in some other format(which is standard format for those language).
Mean while i am using java client.When ever i am displaying a date it will be with respective to the language using Locale and date format classes.When i am displaying the date for Chinese in GUI it will show the date as '08-12-5 下午4:44'. In summary
1. For Chinese,the default date pattern from SQL Anywhere date base is '08-12-5 16.44.10'
2. For the same language date using java code is displaying as '08-12-5 下午4:44'. and i am getting the time format pattern as 'ah:mm'.I tried to change the display format in regional settings but no change in display.
Is there any way to make both the time format as same?
Please help me to solve this issue!!!
Thanks in Advance!

Hello masijade,
I did as u said but still the date display is not the same......And I'm telling you that it doesn't matter. What "format" the DB likes to display a Date in when it displays it, is completely irrelevant to how you display it in your GUI.
A Date does not have a format. A String representation of a Date does.
As long as you use getDate from ResultSet and setDate from PreparedStatement you do not have to worry about this. Those methods will handle dates to and from the DB themselves. You can then use SimpleDateFormat to display the Date anyway you want to.
Just because you show the Date one way, and the DB shows it another, does not mean that it is not the same date. Don't get hung up on how the String representation of the Date looks.
Edit: If you simply want to be able to do "Human Comparisons" then look at the SQL TO_CHAR function (for Oracle, for other DBs the function name may vary). And for Java, read the API docs for SimpleDateFormat (as already intimated above).

How to change the default template for a concurrent prog ?

Hi i have Std Conc prog "Payables Posted Invoice Register". It has a std template with same name "Payables Posted Invoice Register". Now i have created a custom template and attached it to the same Data Definition.
The Requirement is that only particular users will use the custom template, hence they will chose it while running. BUt what happened now is in the Conc Prog submit screen it is taking my custom template as the default one.
Hence majority of the users wudnt look at the template and get the custom o/p.
I want to make the std template itself as the default template and make the custom template available to chose for a smaller set of users.
Thanks,
Vj

Hi Shadab,
Yes, that is a valid work around but my task is not to create a seperate data definition and a seperate concurrent prog for it. I HAD to use the standard concurrnet prog but jsut add my template as a non defaulted template.
Anyways, i have solved it now. This is how
System Adminitration => Concurrent Programs => select ur Concurrent Prog => Update => OnSite settings .... select the template you want to default.
Thanks,
Vijay

How to change the default setting for Output Preview

Good afternoon! I use the Output Preview feature under Advanced > Print Production quite a bit, to preview the rendering in one specific simulation profile (for me, its Web Coated SWOP 2006 Grade 3 Paper).
Is there any way to set the default to be a specific profile, instead of the one that keeps coming up (Output Intent: CGATS TR 001)?
It's very time consuming to have to repeatedly select my profile everytime I open a PDF and gauge the file in Output Preview.
Any help would be greatly appreciated... thanks!
- Johnny

All you need to do is set the default CMYK (under Preferences > Color Management) to the profile you use the most. It will then default to that profile in Output Preview, unless it has an Output Intent specified.

How to change the layout set for Search Results

Hi gurus.
Im developing a search component for KM Search iView, and as a requirement the layout must change dynamically to display the search results. How do I get this to happen?
public SearchParamsMap getSearchParamsMap() {
     SearchParamsMap m = new SearchParamsMap();
          try {
          IQueryEntryList list =                   this.createQuery();
               m.put(SearchParamConst.PARAM_SEARCH_QUERY_ENTRIES,                list);
          } catch (WcmException e) {
               e.printStackTrace();
          m.put(
               SearchParamConst.PARAM_SEARCH_IN,
               SearchParamConst.SEARCH_FROM_FOLDER);
          m.put(SearchParamConst.PARAM_SEARCH_FOLDER, path);
          return m;
private IQueryEntryList createQuery() throws WcmException {
          Hashtable searchParameters = new Hashtable();
          searchParameters.put(
               SearchParamConst.PARAM_ITEMS_SELECTION,
               SearchParamConst.ITEM_ONLY_DOCS);
          searchParameters.put(
               SearchParamConst.RESULT_LAYOUT_SET,
               "Sed_Comunicados");
          SearchQueryListBuilder sqb =
               new SearchQueryListBuilder(searchParameters);
          IQueryEntryList qel = sqb.buildSearchQueryList();
          return qel;
In the createQuery() method, code searchParameters.put(
               SearchParamConst.RESULT_LAYOUT_SET,
               "Sed_Comunicados"); is not working. Also, where do I find the documentation for Class SearchParamConst?

I have the same question. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

How do I change the default browser

Can anyone tell me how I change the default browser which is invoked when I run a web application from Jdev3.1(under NT 4.0). When I run main.jsp from the JDev interface, it invokes IE 5.5. But, I want it to invoke and the application on Netscape 4.6. I don't know if it's the NT registry, but I wanted to make sure w/the experts before I temper w/the registry settings.
Thanks!

Alan,
You got me started on this.
Unfortunately, IE also messed up my browser,
HTM file descriptions (MS...HTML...)
and the HTML file icons and ...
Any how, I also want to make Netscape my default, so I searched and I found this:

This is as simple as it gets.

How do I change the default settings for opening documents on my macbook?

Hi I would like to know how to change the default settings for opening documents on my macbook. Everytime I try to open a doc. it automatically opens with Textedit, instead of Pages or another program.

Select any particular document you wish to fix. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. In the Open With section select the desired Default Application from the dropdown menu. Click on the Change All button to extend the change to all similar documents.
You can only assign one default application to one type of document.

How do you invoke the default browser for Unix/OSX

Does anyone know how to programmatically display the contents of a URL in the default browser for a Unix system? I found a javaworld article on doing this using Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd). The article gives the cmd string for invoking the default browser in Windows, and for invoking the Netscape browser in Unix.
This can easily be extended to invoke any known browser executable in a known path on a Unix system; but I'd like to invoke the default browser without knowing what or where it is. I'm specifically targetting Mac/OSX, but any Unix solution is worth trying.
Is there a Unix command for launching the default browser to display the contents of a given URL? Or is there an alternative approach, rather than invoking Runtime.exec()?
-Mark

After extensive google searching, I came across a partial solution. This code detects the default browser on a Mac, and provides an elegant solution for trying standard browsers in turn for other Unix systems. I tested it on WIndows XP and Mac OSX 3.9, and it detected the default browser each time. A suped up version of this tool is available as a SourceForge project. You can find it here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/browserlaunch2/
Here's the simplified code:

How to change the default operators in sap web ui Search screen?

How to change the default operators in sap web ui Search screen?
For eg. Using advance search option , I have some fields with default operators like equals, contains,is between, is less than and is greater than. I don't need all these operators for this field.
I need only "equals" operator. How do i remove the rest of the operators?

There is a view cluster crmvc_dq where all the standard setting is present related to you r issue. Please try if you can modify that, that way you will avoid the code.
Incase you are not able to make any changes there then in that case you have to redefine the method GET_DQUERY_DEFINITION () of the IMPL class to delete the operators for a particular serach field.
