Setting Google Maps as default Map program

I am using Torch 9810 Ssw V7.0.0 build 2404 on ATT.  I have installed Google Maps and it seems to be working fine.  Of course the Torch also came with ATT Maps and Blackberry Maps.  How to I set up Google Maps as the default map program so that when I click addresses in the address book, on the web, or in email Google Maps is opened rather than Blackberry Maps.
I have searched all of the set up options on the Torch, withing Blackberry Maps and within Google Maps but can not find the this possibility.
Thanks,
Paul

You don't, only Apple can do such. However, Google's SDK for their Maps app permits developers of other apps to use Google Maps. Obviously will take time for that to happen.

  • HT1637 How to set gmail as my default email program?

    Hi, I have attempted to follow the instructions to change my default email program. However, when I open "mail" and go to general preferences, it gives me the options of selecting from an application downloaded on my computer. I want to use gmail as my default email program. But it isn't an ap on my computer, it's online. So how do I set gmail as my default email program? Thanks very much!

    If you mean set it in your browser, you can't As you already pointed out, gmail is not a program on your computer it is a web site. You need to get your gmail account into an email client, such as Mail, on your computer. Then set your default email client to Mail, which in effect will be the same as using gmail since Mail is set up with your gmail account.

  • Can I set Google Maps to be the default map app?

    OK, I've had enough.  I thought I could live with the quirks of Apple Maps, but the other day, I was trying to get directions from Reagan airport to my hotel in DC. Although the app correcty located me at the airport, it insisted on starting the directions from *a golf course on the other side of the Potomac*.  Seriously?  This wasn't a tiny mistake.  It couldn't figure out a major airport in a major US city.  That was the last straw.
    I downloaded the Google Map app, and it was wonderful.  Not only did it (of course) give me the correct directions, but it even talked to me (I have an iPhone 4, which Apple has deemed unworthy of turn by turn directions).
    Is there a way to make Google Maps my default Map app? so that when the OS recognizes something as an address it opens that instead of Apple Maps?

    What on earth is wrong with Apple??  The ENTIRE REASON I MADE MY ORIGINAL PURCHASE WAS GOOGLE MAPS. The arrogance of they know better than the folks using their product is astonishing.  I don't care what the articles say, this map debacle is killing potential iPhone sales.  If they will not support MY NEEDS, I'll abandon my investment in applications as the important ones use Google maps and will be worthless anyhow.  Already applications I want demand iOS 6 which I refuse to download.  This phone will become an iPod and I will never again trust apple with my future.  This is not the first time apple has decided for me.  It's going to be the last decision you make for me.  Trust.

  • How do I set Google as the default search engine in the URL search field (now have Yahoo)?

    I'd like Firefox to use Google as the default search engine for the URL search field, instead of Yahoo as I currently have. I've tried to find a place to reset this in Preferences but can't find a solution. Would be very grateful for any advice. Imagine it's simple.
    NB: I'm talking of the left search field, not the right search engine one where it's easy enough to define.

    You can reset the prefs general.useragent.override and keyword.URL on the about:config page.<br />

  • How do I set Google as the default search engine in Firefox 5? I have tried several fixes but I keep getting a Yahoo search instead of Google.

    I want to use Google as my search engine but no matter what settings I change the default search engine is always Yahoo.
    Also I would like to have the feature back where when I open a new tab it shows frequently used pages that I can click on and open.

    '''Remove the Yahoo Toolbar'''
    # "Ctrl+Shift+A" (Add-ons Manager)
    # Select Puzzle piece on left-side for Extensions List
    # Find "Yahoo Toolbar" and click on "Uninstall" button
    '''Then to fix the default search engine''' used at the Location Bar, change the value of '''keyword.URL''' in '''about:config''' to one of the values shown in [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Location_Bar_search#Location_Bar_search_.28external_-_search_engine.29 Location Bar search] at MozillaZine.
    * Google Search (Google search results page)<br>'''http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q='''
    # type in '''about:config''' into the location bar
    # if the warning message nonsense comes up uncheck the box before dismissing the dialog message
    # '''filter on keyword'''
    # right-click on '''keyword.URL''' and choose "modify" then paste in the Google search engine string of your choice.
    '''More information on configuration variables''' available in

    See a Windows support forum about '''''not''''' having a default browser. AFAIK, you need to have one browser as the default browser.

  • How do I set google as my default search engine

    Hello Firefox,
    Google comes up as my Home Page, but when I enter, it defaults to www.ask.com. How do I keep it on Google please?
    Thanks,

    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

    To place a google map in your site, have a look here http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/exchange/index.cfm?event=extensionDetail&extid=2187524. This will enable you to place a pin on your address.
    To have your address placed in a google.com hosted site, you will need to Google the subject.

    Hi.. is there a way to change the default setting in the Google map so it appears at suburb level rather than as it currently does (almost state level). Thanks DC

    Come here good people, gather around, fresh community solution coming up!
    Eat it while it's hot!
