Open with Google

Hello,
From this morning... Safari ( 7.0 ) is opening 'search with Google' from the contextual menu in 'Ask.com'?
Any reason for this sudden partisan behaviour?
With thanks,

You can set your home page URL on Firefox Preferences, on the General tab - set it back to the old page.
See [[How to set the home page]] for a thorough explanation.

    when i first open firefox homepage (opens with google as set by firefox) after about 3 seconds the page freezes and cannot be closed or minimised. i have to open second homepage to shut pc down or continue to use pc. this has only happened since i installed firefox 4. what do i do to fix this

    I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
    When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
    At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
    I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

  • When I click for a new tab, how can I make it open with google as opposed to it being blank?

    The new tab always opens (untitled) with no www address. I would prefer it to open with google but cant find this option.

    You can look at one of these extensions:
    * NewTabURL : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/newtaburl/
    * New Tab Homepage : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage/

  • I cant work out how when i open a new tab it opens with Google... simple but cant do it please help

    A simple one but cant do it
    all I want is each time I open up a new tab it opens in Google can do it
    please help

    Have you got some kind of search bar added as a plugin that you need to uninstall. I note an entry in your system details mentioning 'BLNBAR'.
    * see [[Searches are redirected to another site]] - also lists some sites of interest if you have malware problems
    * and [[Troubleshooting plugins#w_manually-uninstalling-a-plugin]] (includes instructions on how to manually uninstall)

  • I have all tabs set to open with Google search, but when I open a new tab and start typing, the letters appear in the address bar and not the Google search bar. It didn't used to be like this!

    Firefox 9.01; Windows 7 64 bit;
    One of my set of home pages is the basic Google search page. When I open this, I can immediately start typing and the words appear in the Google search box.
    If however I open a new tab (white cross far right of tab bar) and start typing, the words appear in the address bar, not in the Google search box. Of course once I click in the search box I can carry on: but I'd like to make it start there as it does with the homepage.

    If you want a specific webpage (like the Google page) to always open when you open a New Tab, you can use the following add-on to Open New Tabs with your Favorite Pages:
    -> NewTabURL 2.2.3
    * https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/newtaburl/
    * NewTabURL will not work until you set the page that you want to open in the Options for it.
    * click Add-ons > Extensions, click Options next to NewTabURL.
    Check and tell if its working.
    Not related to your problem but do the following:
    -> Update Firefox to the latest version 10
    * [[Installing Firefox on Windows]]
    -> Update All your Firefox Plugins -> https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/

  • How do I disable "open with google docs" for pdf files?

    When I click on a pdf file link, I don't want Google Docs reader to open it because it does not support pdf fill-in forms. I do not know how to disable this in Firefox.

    See https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Opening+PDF+files+within+Firefox
    You can use the method shown to change it to use Adobe Reader, Acrobat or another PDF viewer.

  • I installed Firefox 4 two days ago, and my system immediately began to run very slow and/or crashes. Should I re-install earlier version (that opened with google instead of yahoo)? If so, how do I get it?

    Additionally I am getting a McAfee warning that "McAfee cannot update you software. Check your internet connection, and then try updating your software manually. If the problem continues please reinstall this software."

    You might try using the add-on 'NoSquint' which allows numerous zoom options specific to each page you visit & keeps your settings - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/nosquint/
    If you want to go back to 3.6x, you will find it here:
    http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    In most cases you can simply "upgrade" (meaning downgrade) directly from the installation. It would be a good idea to save your passwords & bookmarks just to be on the safe side.

  • How do I set new tabs to open with my home page

    When I open a new tab, it opens with bingle and I want it to open with Google, which is my home page.

    You can do that by using an add-on such as:
    * NewTabURL - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/newtaburl
    * New Tab Homepage - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage

  • Kmz opens with photoshop question

    All my .kHz files are being opened by Photoshop and not Google Earth.
    I select any a kHz file >>> CMD I >>> Open With Google Earth >>> Change all = No good.
    Then >>> Open With Other >>> From Apps. Enable Recommended Applications or All Applications >>> Check Always Open With Google Earth.
    The second I press Change All, the Open With jumps back to Photoshop.
    I cannot find any Photoshop or Google Preferences that helps.
    Thanks in advance.
    Google Earth V.5.1.3533.1731
    Photoshop CS 4 Extended V 11

    Using Get Info on the file to change the app, and then clicking the button to Change All really ought to work. You can try resetting the Launch Services database and see if that helps. See macjack's instructions here:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8669499
    If that doesn't work either you may have installed something that is over-riding the defaults.

  • Always open with not working

    Some of my .kmz files are opening with Google Earth (good) and some are opening with Adobe Photoshop CS4 (bad). I tried the following
    1) Rebuild launchservices database in Onyx
    2) Delete ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.LaunchServices.plist and ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.LaunchServices.QuarantineEvents per the advice at http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=11031322
    I still get the following in the Finder
    a) Select a .kmz with the icon that indicates that it will open in Photoshop
    b) Get info, select "Open with: Google Earth"
    c) Select Change All...
    d) Confirm that I am sure that I want to do this
    e) WATCH THE FINDER REVERT TO OPEN WITH ADOBE PHOTOSHOP CS4 for this document!
    Any thoughts, or is this just a bug I have to live with?

    I have the exact same issue. It occurs with every file type I've tried.
    Any suggestions?

    My Safari will not allow me to open my Google calendar with Google Apps. I have to open my email with the older version of Google Apps. This happened after I installed 5.1.4. I tried to use the fix of changing to 64 bit by unchecking the 32 bit box but that didnt help.

    I assume that there are legal restrictions on the way in which iTunes can get artwork automatically from any source apart from the iTunes Store (which is what the right-click > Get Album Artwork function uses).  For example, even though the Gracenote service that iTunes uses to match CDs and retrieve metadata (artist, album, track titles, etc.) also has artwork functions, iTunes does not make use of these.
    For manual addition of artwork, there are three cases where the image you select may not be correctly embedded in your media files:
    your media are in a format that doesn't accommodate embedded artwork - typically WAV files.  To embed artwork you'll need to convert to another format - Apple Lossless or AIFF if you want to preserve lossless quality, AAC or MP3 otherwise.
    your media files are read only - to fix this, use Windows Explorer to find the folder that contains your files, right-click and select Properties.  On the General tab there's a check box labeled "Read-only" - if this is checked, or is grey (sometimes blue), click the box so that the flag is unchecked and the box is white.  Click OK, and then OK again when the "Apply changes to this folder, subfolders and files" option selected.  Now try adding the artwork again.
    Windows permissions issues are preventing iTunes from updating your media files (there's some anecdotal evidence of a change in this behavior in iTunes 12).  See turingtest2's notes on Repair security permissions for iTunes for Windows for advice on fixing this, then try adding the artwork again.
