Need assistance adding another search engine

I have an iMAC.
I am satisfied with Safari, but want the flexibility to use an additional search engine at the same time.
How can I set up my computer so I have the ability to surf with another  internet service provider (ex. explorer, google chrome) while I am using Safari?
Thanks,
Steve

Dear  Rudegar,
Thank you for prompt reply, and I apologize for not asking a technically correct question.  
I am currently streaming music through the Internet using Safari.
I want to steam another recording (at the same time), and was told I need to access another browser  in order to perform this function.
Judging by your reply, I think the  answer is "Maybe - but I need to check out https://extensions.apple.com" to see if this is feasible.
Did I ask the question more clearly?  Did I understand your response?
Thanks,

  • How to set another search engine in safari?

    hi all
    can anybody tell how to set another search engine than google/yahoo in safari (e.g. Bing)?
    thank you

    At this stage, I don't know of any workarounds (or available plugins) for Safari for Windows 4.0.4 that allow you to put a different search engine option in the search field.
    The workaround I've been using is to pin a Bing window into my Top Sites.
    You can send an enhancement request to Apple about it. Although it doesn't look to be set up for it, if you bring up your Menu Bar and go "Help > Report bugs to Apple", you can use that bug report form to ask for enhancements. I was skeptical about that to begin with, but apparently they check that for feature enhancement requests, according to the following document. (It's mentioned right down the very bottom.)

  • Everytime I click on a link through a search engine I am diverted to another search engine, why is that? Google + Bing are doing it!

    Everytime I search something in google and bing, then go to click on a link, I am directed to another search engine, something like K Direct seems to be the main one. At first I thought this was a problem with Google but now Bing has started it, is this a firefox problem, a google + bing problem or a problem with my computer? Help!
    == URL of affected sites ==
    http://www.google.com and http://www.bing.com

    Can you please copy and paste your about:support here? (Open a new window by pressing File > New , type '''about:support''' into the Location Bar, then press Copy all to clipboard .)

  • Need advice on web search engine

    I may need to install a search engine for a asp.x web site I am working on. I know nothing about ASP.NET and the these are secure web pages. Also, this is for just a portion of the web site.I have no experience with search engines.
    First question: Can search engines limit their search to just a section of a web site?
    Second question: What would recommend for my circumstances?
    Thanks!

    Answer to your first question: No, I don't want to provide a search engine to the entire site. There is a section you go in with several divisions. One division is the directory of services. The way that it's set up now is they have about 9 PDF files that are link to 9 headings. You click on a heading and it opens the PDF for that topic. The problem is that it takes a long time for the PDF to open and then the person may have to search it for the information they are looking for.
    I think you may have answered my question already. If robot files are required to limit a search, then a search engine may not be the practical choice in my case.
    By the way, to answer your last question, I am not coding in ASP.NET. I have made it clear to these people that I don't know a line of it. But I also think the solution to the problem is to convert the Directory to web pages, set up links of topics and maybe a JavaScript jump menu for linking to other bookmarked information. That way the searched is limited to only certain topics we decide beforehand but also limited to the directory.
    What do you think of this solution? Do you foresee any problems?

  • How do you open a DVD/file in another search engine

    how do you open a DVD/file in another search engine?

    Hi
    I think it is simpler than that: place DVD in computer and then try to run a video from the disk. It will not run using Safari, but I know it runs in Firefox which I have on the computer.
    I believe that I can depress one of the moifier keys while clicking an item on the application menu bar to open a menu where you can open the dvd using Firefox or another application.
    Should be simple, but yet to find solution.

  • Powershell script assistance - adding another property to existing script

    This is not my script but was written by Richard L. Mueller. It works perfectly for us but I would like to know if the account is enabled or disabled when the output is created. Basically it would output the name, lastlogon and then either enabled or disabled.
    I've attempted to add a new property by adding another " $Searcher.PropertiesToLoad.Add" and "$Result.Properties.Item ".
    It works fine if I add something like "givenName" but I can't find the property name to show if the account is enabled or disabled.
    The entire script is shown below:

  • Don't like Google. How add another search engine?

    I suppose the headline says it all: I used to be a fan of Google way back then. But as I rather support smaller businesses, I'd like to add e.g. www.clusty.com as default search engine instead.
    How can I do that?

    keats2010: Apology accepted and appreciated and I apologize myself if I came across as rude. But I assume you understood that your reply wasn't at all what I asked for (and also a suggestion that I'm so daft that I don't know how to even find/use another search engine) and therefore meaningless.
    And to be fair: it wasn't "bee" but "Golden shoes" that provided a relevant reply. "bee" has merely carried out his role as self appointed monitor/moderator. I'm still trying to figure out what he/she meant by "You came across as someone who wanted to help. "
    Cheers!

  • Need an alternate Javahelp search engine

    Hi Friends,
    I have been facing this problem with Javahelp for a few months now. I have created a Javahelp system for my application and it works absolutely fine. However, I am not happy with the way the search works. As the Javahelp search engine uses relaxation ranking and morphing, it returns strings other then what is needed.
    For example: if i give a search for "Workflow Modelling" it returns "modelling" or "workflow" or "a weird string that has workflow and modelling separated by even 20 words". I want my search engine to provide exactly the word i have searched for.
    Please provide me a new search engine and the way i can change the default Javahelp search engine. It is a very urgent requirement. Would be extremely glad if any one of you could provide me a very quick solution.
    Thanks.

  • Searching in another search engine

    Hello all,
    i have a question, which probally sounds harder than it is
    but i think it should be rather simple.
    could any one help me out on this?
    my Q:
    I have made an HTML page, in this page i would like to have
    an search option.
    What i need is that when some one types a keyword to search,
    it actually takes the keyword and searches it in an external search
    engine, lets say like google. then a new window will open with the
    search result.
    as far as i know this will require a script and all it has to
    do is to take the keyword and add it to a URL. e.g
    http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=keyword

  • How doI stop it opening the internet with Creative Commons and use another search engine e.g. Google?

    When I first go to the internet with Firefox, then want to type in what I am looking for, it opens with Creative Commons. I would MUCH rather it opened with a search engine such as Google. How do I change to this? N.B I am using a Mac.

    ''morflorian wrote:''
    if the migth-be protocol has no handler, assume it is just a search engine request).
    The main problem with that would be that Firefox would fail to notify the user in case of a valid protocol that's not associated with a program, and would instead send the URL as a search query. Firefox would appear broken, when in fact the problem is with the external application. That's far from desirable. This isn't an uncommon occurrence with externally-handled protocols like ''magnet''.
    Also, I don't think the vast majority of people are likely to run into this problem. Even those that do can easily work around it, by placing the search words first (e.g. ''gingerbread intitle:recipes''), or by starting the query with a search engine keyword (e.g. ''g date:1 heartbleed aftermath''). To assign a keyword to a search engine, click the icon in the search bar and choose Manage Search Engines.
    If you feel very strongly about this, head over to the ''#firefox'' [http://irc.mozilla.org IRC channel] and see if you can find someone familiar with the File Handling component. If they think this change is a good idea, you could then file a bug report.

  • Adding new search engine(bing)

    is it possible. anything but google

    Hi lhcurlett,
    You should read the [[Search bar]] Knowledge Base article. It will show you how to switch search engines, add more, and even remove Google completely if that's what you want to do.
    Hopefully this helps!

  • Adding another search module

    Hello,
    I would like to use http://www.helpuu.com/ search engine directly from Firefox (as a search module - search box in upper right corner of the browser). Is it possible?
    Thanks.

    Install the "Add to Search bar" extension then you can right-click within the search area on that page and choose "'''Add to Search Bar...'''".
    * https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/add-to-search-bar/
    As an alternative to having a lot of search engines, you can generate a bookmark and a keyword using Firefox built-in facilities, no extension involved. Right-click with the search area on that page and choose "'''Add a Keyword for this Search'''" so if you created a keyword of "helpuu" you would simply type the following into the location bar:
    :'''helpuu''' firefox keyword shortcuts
    Because I use keyword shortcuts a lot, I have prevented default external searching from the location bar, and my keyword shortcuts include a colon(":") so I might use something like "helpuu:" or just "uu:" -- keyword shortcuts should be short, easy to type and most important easy to remember -- such as abbreviations. All of mine have the keyword at the beginning of the the bookmark title are in for the most part in one folder :"K" and are sorted on title so if I forget one I can find it easily from the folder for from an AwesomeBar search (internal search before hitting Enter at the location bar).

  • Need Assistance - iRecruitment Link "Search Open Positions at Oracle"

    I am a frequent user of the iRecruitment site to search for open Oracle Positions and have successfully accessed the site in the past. I am using Internet Explorer 8.
    When I access the link "Open Positions at Oracle (Please use Internet Explorer), a new session pops up and I receive the error message "Internet Explorer Cannot Display the Webpage". "What you can try - Diagnose the problem". Diagnosing the problem leads to nothing. In troubleshooting, my internet connection is good and I can access all other sites on the Oracle iRecruitment page (all other links, etc.).
    Is the site down? How can I prevent this from happening and use the iRecruitment site to search for open positions.

    Welcome to the forums !
    I would suggest you try these options -
    1. Use a different browser (like Firefox), or a different PC, to see if you can replicate the error.
    2. Give feedback at the site stating your issue. Forum members will not be able to help, nor are these forums monitored by Support.
