New voice search starts Google voice dialer instead of voice search app (fw 5.0.0.66)

Hello. I use Nexus 4 with Lollipop 5.1After upgrade I found that Sony released a new cool feature "Voice search" which should "forward search commands to phone's defaults voice search app".in facts when I hoold 2 sec on Volume Up button I see native ugly "Google voice dialer" instead of "Google voice commands".Is it behaviour by default? How can I use Google voice commands (aka Google Now) instead of voice dialer?Thanks.

Hi! You can actually use a free APP name " BT GNow". Set it as default APP as the Samrtband talk search function. Then you can use Google Now. Millet

Try the Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there. 
''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' 
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
* You can open the Firefox 4.0+ SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. 
''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
'''''If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.

Getting URL redirects from Google's "I'm Feeling Lucky" Search

Hello all! I'm working on my final project for my intermediate programming class but I've hit a bit of a snag. This project is a "do whatever interests you, as long as it incoporates what we've learned this semester" type of project. (My personal favorite type of programming project!) I have a significant amount of code already complete, but here's my problem:
To put it simply, my program:
1) Takes a list of movie names
2) Gets the movie poster from Wikipedia
3) Saves the poster images to a folder
4) Creates an HTML file, so I can see a visual representation of every movie on the list (btw, how do you like my idea?).
I'm using (what I think to be) a very clever system of searching with Google's "I'm Feeling Lucky" search (using detailed search terms such as "air+force+one+movie+wikipedia" that will, more than likely, always take me to the right page (if it exists))...
Basically, my getPic(String url) method is now throwing an exception when I try to search the page that Google redirects me to, and I'm guessing it might be because the code is trying to search the "I'm Feeling Lucky" redirect page, instead of the page it is supposed to redirect to.
I get the following error:
10000 BC
A connection to http://www.google.com/search?btnI=1&q=10000+bc+movie+wiki could not be established.
java.io.IOException: Server returned HTTP response code: 403 for URL: http://www.google.com/search?btnI=1&q=10000+bc+movie+wiki
     at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.getInputStream(Unknown Source)
     at java.net.URL.openStream(Unknown Source)
     at GetWikiPiki.getPic(GetWikiPiki.java:44)
     at MovieList.makeMovieList(MovieList.java:109)
     at MakeMovieList.main(MakeMovieList.java:13)(Etc, with all the movies giving the same exception.)
If my guess is correct, could someone please inform me on how to either:
a) Follow the redirection from Google to the Wikipedia page or
b) Obtain the URL which the Google search will redirect me to.
Preferably b, so I can program it not to need to recreate each movie search every time the program runs.
Or if you have another idea of what it could be, please feel free to make suggestions.
Thanks a lot,
Derek

When I tried printing the source of, for example, http://www.google.com/search?btnI=1&q=10000+bc+movie+wiki it gave me the source code to the Wikipedia 10,000 BC page with no errors at all.
Does this mean that it could be something wrong in my code and not Google?
Here is the code I'm using in the particular section that throws an exception:
      * Gets the image address of a movie poster from Wikipedia via
      * parsing the passed-in URL.
      * @param url The website address (URL) of a Wikipedia article containing a movie poster.
      * @return The first occurrence, in "picture_name.jpg" format, of an
      * image whose address contains "http://" and ".jpg".
public String getPic(String url) {
          try {
               URL connection = new URL(url);
               InputStream in = connection.openStream();
               Scanner console = new Scanner(in);
               while(console.hasNext()) {
                    String temp = console.next();
                    if(temp.contains("http://") && temp.contains(".jpg")) {
                         String temp2 = temp.replace("src", "").replace("=", "").replace("\"", "");
                         return temp2;
          catch(IOException e) {
          System.out.println("A connection to " + url + " could not be established.");
          e.printStackTrace();
          return null;
     }{code}

"Search in Google" always open Safari

I have Flock set as my default browser. When I'm in the Finder, or Mail, or TextEdit etc., select a word and command click to select "Search in Google," Safari opens instead of Flock. Is there another place I have to change this preference?

Yes, this is really pushy, annoying, and monopolistic behavior! I use firefox. I like Apple mail, and search in Google is a nice feature, but I don't want it to bring up Safari, especially when I'm already running firefox!
Anxiously awaiting someone with a fix, workaround, or for Apple to start behaving well. (Isn't this the sort of thing Microsoft is always accused of doing? Yet under Windows, I can make Firefox the default! Well, if that doesn't wake up Apple...)

Nokia N8-Cannot use any search engines Google/Bing

Internet connection via 3G and WLAN is fine.
'Go to new web page' option also works if you enter web address direct.
BUT when searching via Google, Bing, BBC or any other search engine no search results come up and phone defaults back to original home page.
Any ideas please?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

In browser search for Google Search, when the page loads, choose the Google home page, once open, touch the arrow in bottom right corner of screen and select options>settings>general>home page>set to current page, Google will then open whenever you open the Browser

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,
rb

Replace Nuance Voice Commands with Google Voice Search

I would like to replace the Nuance Voice Commands with Google Voice Search when i press the call button on my bluetooth stereo headset.
I do not see a way to uninstall the Nuance Voice Commands...
I do not see a way to configure the phoe so that it uses Google Voice Search instead of Nuance Voice Commands...
Factory reset defaults the phone to Nuance Voice Commands...
I would like to press the call button on my stereo headset and have more voice commands than the Nuance app provides. Has anybody found a way to change this behavior without special access?
Sorry my phone is stock and no special access...

Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.
I just tested it here and i get the same result as you but i'm swedish as well.
Not sure if this has to do with how Google Maps behaves in different countries but a Google search is made when you say a voice command that's not recognized by any of the apps you have for the watch. There's a discussion about the "Navigate to" not working here and it seems Google is looking into it.
What i've also noticed myself is that some apps actually give wrong information about which voice command you should use so sometimes you have to try another phrase than the exact one the app is telling you to use.

How to Voice Chat on Google Talk with IChat

I am a new mac user, started using just yesterday. I need some help to configure my IChat for Google talk. I managed to configure ichat to do normal text chat thru the settings in google's website. but i am unable to do voice chat. i need help coz google talk is one application that i use extensively..

Gizmo (http://www.gizmoproject.com) allows you to by using a proxy to convert SIP to Jingle. It also does the same thing for Yahoo! Messenger and Windows Live/MSN Messenger users. I've no idea how well it works though.
We'll have to wait until Leopard's released before we know whether Apple has added Jingle support to iChat. If they have you'll be able to do audio (and possibly video) with Gtalk users natively. I wouldn't count on Apple doing this though.

When I am NOT private browsing Firefox will not allow me to delete or change the website address in the location bar. My only remedy is to open a new window and search in google then click the link to that site through google. How can I resolve this?

Question
When I am NOT private browsing Firefox will not allow me to delete or change the website address in the location bar. My only remedy is to open a new window and search in google then click the link to that site through google. When I swap to private browsing firefox allows me to anter the website address directly into the location bar - but this is a slow [prcess to swap back and forth - also by dint of using private browsing I loose my website information.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

After I search using Google in Firefox, and hit the back arrow button to return to the main homepage I use, the browser won't take me there. Instead, I'm left at the initial results page from my search.

Assume I start at Google as my homepage. I search for Federal Reserve. Google then brings up a number of selections for Federal Reserve. I can scroll through to more search results on page 2, 3, 4, etc. Now suppose I want to use the back arrow button to go back to Google as my homepage. I’ve found what I was looking for. When I try to get back to Google, the furthest back I can go is to page 1 of the search results. The browser won’t take me back to the original starting page which was Google. Also, it doesn’t matter what the starting page or initial page was. The browser will only take me back to the initial page after the original homepage. By the way, I did not install any new software or applications prior to this problem occurring. My guess is that it may have something to do with the function keys at the top of the keyboard. But I can’t figure out what the problem is with the function keys. It’s only a guess.

using Google toolbar for searches?? disable instant search (click the wrench to the right of the tool bar, untick enable instant, and hit save. worked for me

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
kbhat

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...

Hello. Whenever I plug in my headphones, the music speeds up, changes, and stops by itself. And then Voice Control starts for no reason. I put back Siri to see if that was the problem and the same thing happened with Siri. How do I fix this?

When I plug in my headphones the music starts to soeed up and stop ayi g by itself. Another issue is when it does stop, Voice Control is on when I don't hold on the home button. I turned on Siri because this is what started my problem (taking off Siri) and it didn't help, instead of Voice Control, Siri started to turn on. I didn't want Siri, so I put Voice Control and disabled it. I did so, and the problem still kept on going. Any ideas on how yo fix it?

I'd guess that the problem is due to a short in your earphones. Try another set.

You (or your kids) inadvertently installed adware. You do not need to download or install anything to fix it.
Any tips on how to stop it from happening?
Yes. To learn how to avoid it in the future read How to install adware.
If you require them, Apple's removal instructions are linked in the Recovery Procedure near the end of that document. Read and follow them carefully. Pay particular attention to the easily overlooked passages directing you to restart your Mac when required.

There may be a defect in the phone. As you bought it in the US the only place you can get it looked at is in the US.
When you say you bought it new, unlocked did you buy it directly from an Apple store? If you did not it was hacked to unlock it, which could also be your problem. Apple stores are the only place in the US that sells legitimately unlocked iPhones.
