How to set google.co.uk instead of google Canada

I sue Firefox and Google is my default search engine. I live in the UK and want Google to start seacrhing for UK entries. However it starts searching in Canada. How do I change it to search the UK?

You must select "English/United Kingdom" as your first preferred language if you want to have search results for your country. Check out [[Options window - Content panel]] for more details.
To change your default search engine, see [[Search bar]].
Note: it exist a en-GB version of Firefox that you can download from: http://www.mozilla-europe.org/en/firefox/. In this version, "English/United Kingdom" will be defined by default as your first preferred language.

  • How to set google search language in latest Safari

    There are various posts on how to set the default Google search language for the new unified search bar within Safari. But, those did not help me at all. I'm still having french as default language for Google in Safari. I set my language to english (as wanted) under the mentioned link (http://www.google.com/preferences?hl=en)  and saved those settings. I live in the german part of Switzerland (and not in France) and I connect to the internet over my nearby ISP. I even reset Safari completely but still each time I do a search in the unified search bar this google sh... shows up in french. Which I definetly do not want and speak.
    Any help very much appreciated.

    I finally figured it out.
    I had to go to Google France (http://www.google.fr/preferences?hl=en) and set my language to English there. Hopefully I don't have to go to the Chinese page as well and set my language to English there as well. I guess I would be lost again.

  • How to set Google to UK version

    Does anyone know how I can set the inbuilt Google search engine in Safari to search Google.co.uk instead of Google.com? I get too many non-UK resulst for my searches and I'd like to hone them down.
    Thanks!

    [ O.T ] however from reading other peoples posts it seems to be a more complicated problem than I was hoping for.
    Not that complicated, third party Safari enhancing apps, can make Safari crash when our os is update & the haxie is not. Flash, improperly updating... etc. Posting your crash could of been helpful.
    I may just use Firefox untill the next update comes out and see if that solves the problem. you also try Camino at www.caminobrowser.org made by Mozilla.
    Enjoy your intel mac.
    Cheers~!

  • How to set Preview as Default instead of Adobe Reader

    How can I set Preview as the default application for PDF files instead of Adobe Reader?

    Go to a PDF file and selected it. Either "File"- "Get Info" in the menu bar or press Cmd-I. This will give you a pop up screen where you have an section called "Open with".  Go there, select Preview as the application to open the document with, press the "Change All" button and confirm.

  • Atomic Web Browser -- How to set as preferred browser instead of Safari?

    I recently installed the Atomic Web Browser on my iPad.  However, whenever I tap on a link outside this app (in an email, for example), the Safari browser is activated.  Is there a way to make the Atomic Browser the preferred browser so this won't happen?
    Thanks in advance!

    Not at the moment no, there is no way to change it from Safari. You can try leaving feedback and maybe it'll happen in a future release : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

    Google Apps users, please follow the default instructions unless otherwise noted, replacing 'your_domain.com' with your actual domain2 name.
    this is all greek to me. WHAT IS STARTTLS? On the first page of Apple set up there is a TLS certificate and it is marked NONE- should I change it to the long APPLE CERT option?  The next page under ADVANCED: THERE IS A BOX SSL MARKED.  Then IMAP Path Prefix - I put stmp.gmail.com.. is that right?  Port 993 can  use this one? as 456 doesn't work and 587 said it wasn't safe.  Under AUTHENTICATION I used PASSWORD.  Should I have used external client cert TLS?
    Please help me set this up securely. Thanks

  • Can someone tell me how to set my name so when I send a text it shows up instead of my phone number

    Can someone tell me how to set my name so when I send a text it shows up instead of my phone number

    You can't do that. Only the sending number is transmitted by the carrier with an SMS message. If the recipient has you in their address book, with most smart phones and some others, the name will display, but that's a function of the phone on the receiving end.

  • Set my own key instead of using KeyGenerator.generateKey() - how?

    How can I set my own key instead of using KeyGenerator.generateKey()?
    I don´t see any method that is alowing this.

    I have now tried my own.
    To send encrypted data through a CipherOutputStream, I have done this:
    private File file;
            private CipherOutputStream cos;
            private Cipher cipher;
            private PBEKeySpec key;
            private char[] password = "test".toCharArray();
            public SendFileThread(File file)
                this.file = file;
                try
                    key = new PBEKeySpec(password);
                    SecretKeyFactory factory = SecretKeyFactory.getInstance("PBEWithMD5AndDES");
                    SecretKey pbeKey = factory.generateSecret(key);
                    cipher = Cipher.getInstance("PBEWithMD5AndDES");
                    cipher.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, pbeKey);
                catch(Exception err) {err.printStackTrace();}
            public void run()
                byte [] mybytearray  = new byte [(int)file.length()];
                try
                    fis = new FileInputStream(file);
                    bis = new BufferedInputStream(fis);
                    bis.read(mybytearray,0,mybytearray.length);
                    OutputStream os = socket.getOutputStream();
                    cos = new CipherOutputStream(os, cipher);
                    int byteCount = 0;
                    int length = mybytearray.length;
                    while(byteCount < mybytearray.length)
                        cos.write(mybytearray[byteCount]);
                    os.flush();
                    os.close();
                    socket.close();
                catch(FileNotFoundException err){err.printStackTrace();}
                catch(IOException err){err.printStackTrace();}To receive the encrypted data and then decrypt it, I use the same password and Cipher.DECRYPT_MODE in the Cipher.init() method.
    private Socket sock;
            private DataInputStream din;
            private CipherInputStream cin;
            private BufferedOutputStream out_file;
            private Cipher cipher;
            private PBEKeySpec key;
            private char[] password = "test".toCharArray();
            public ListenForConnectionThread()
                try
                    key = new PBEKeySpec(password);
                    SecretKeyFactory factory = SecretKeyFactory.getInstance("PBEWithMD5AndDES");
                    SecretKey pbeKey = factory.generateSecret(key);
                    cipher = Cipher.getInstance("PBEWithMD5AndDES");
                    cipher.init(Cipher.DECRYPT_MODE, pbeKey);
                catch(Exception err) {err.printStackTrace();}
            public void run()
                try
                    serverSocket = new ServerSocket(2000);
                    sock = serverSocket.accept();
                    Runnable r = new Runnable()
                        public void run()
                            try
                                cin = new CipherInputStream(sock.getInputStream(), cipher);
                                out_file = new BufferedOutputStream(new FileOutputStream("received_file.txt"));
                                int inputLine;
                                while((inputLine = cin.read()) != -1)
                                    out_file.write(inputLine);
                                out_file.flush();

  • How do I set google bar to google.co.uk?

    That's pretty much it really.
    In the google search bar top right. How do I set it it google uk?
    Thanks apple heads!

    Hi guys,
    This is how you can set Google Bar to google.co.uk. It's like hardwiring it into the application.
    Please note that I used this method on safari 3.0.4. I guess it works fine with any 3.x.x version but not sure if it will work on previews versions as well.
    The Method:
    1. Take a backup of Safari (goto Applications and make a copy of Safari somewhere safe)
    2. Make sure you have taken backup of Safari!
    Quit Safari.
    3. Goto Applications > Safari
    Right click and choose "Show Package Contents"
    A new Finder window opens up.
    In that window goto Contents > MacOS
    Right click on "Safari" and select "Open With" > "Other..."
    From the menu choose "TextEdit" and click on "Open"
    4. Now you see a page full of not-so-easy-to-understand text.
    In this page search for:
    http://%@.google.com/%@?q=%@&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8
    Replace this string (there are two occurrences) with the following:
    http://%@.google.co.uk/%@?hl=en&q=%@&a=0000000
    NOTE 1: You better use the "Replace & Find" function.
    NOTE 2: MAKE SURE YOU DONT MESS AROUND WITH ANYTHING ELSE AND THAT YOU DONT DELETE ANY CHARACTERS AROUND THE STRING BY MISTAKE.
    5. Save the file (from the Application Menu choose "File" > "Save")
    NOTE: Do it exactly the way I said: goto to "File" > "Save". DONT click on the red close button and then save.
    6. Now open Safari. Hopefully it opens. If not then you've done something wrong!
    Try the Google Bar and walla it works.
    ========================================================
    I found this method on a website (http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20030514035516436) but it dint work for me so I had to alter some bits of it to work with Safari 3.0.4. If you want some general tips on this method visit the original page.
    Hope that was helpful.

  • How to set up iOS calendar app with shared Google Calendar data

    At work (in our small office) I've been given access to the shared Google Calendar that has our work schedule. It was set up using this page (click on Share an existing calendar):
    https://support.google.com/calendar/answer/37082
    The question I have is how to set it up to work with iOS calendar app on my iPhone?

    "currently there is no shared group calendar support."
    Well, not really. You hinted at it with: "set up a group wiki."
    Go into Workgroup Manager and set up an Open Directory group. Add people to it.
    Each client must then go into iCal --> Preferences --> Accounts and add an account. The name and password entered must be the same as that added to the group, Kerberos must be unchecked, and the account URL will be like (fill in the blanks properly):
    http://<your domain name here>:8008/principals/groups/<your group name here>/
    Now each properly logged in user of that group can make changes to the shared group calendar, without any "hacks" like making dummy users and delegation.
    However, I am getting a notifier: "Request Error: Accesss to <event name> in <your group name here> in account <your group name here> is not permitted." But that seems to be a lie, since multiple members of the group can make changes and others can see the changes.
    Oh yea, make sure you have a functioning DNS with valid reverse lookup.
