Chrome, rather than Bing

I prefer to use Chrome, rather than Bing as my search engine. Where to change this setting?  I use Windows 7.

Thanks for your help.

Chrome is a browser, not a search engine.

My guess is that you want to replace the default search engine in Internet Explorer with Google search.

If that's what you want to do, click on the gear in the top right of the window icon and select "Manage Add-ons."  In the window that opens, click on "search providers".

If the only element of the list is Bing, click at the bottom left of the window to «Search again search engines»

In the "Internet Explorer Gallery" window that opens, scroll down to "Google search" and click Add.  Click on 'Add' in the pop up window. You can close the window "Internet Explorer Gallery".

Close window 'Manage Add-ons' and then click on the gear icon and open it again.  You should now see Google in the search providers list.

Click on Google and then click on "Set as default."  Close window 'Manage Add-ons '.

  • When I open a new tab, it goes straight to the Bing, rather than the white page.

    I recently downloaded a program called PDFlite to view the PDF files. He seems to have changed some settings on my Firefox, I does not allow to do so. I am today and there was a Bing toolbar, which I disabled it without problem. But now when I open a new tab, it goes directly into the Bing search engine, rather than the blank page where it used to go. This turn off the coast. I hate Bing. I checked my addons and there is no new addons added by the program. I can't understand what is happening. Help, please!

  • Firefox for Android only displays the desktop version of gmail rather than mobile.

    Android only question.

    I prefer to access gmail via a browser rather than the gmail app. Tests of other browsers on Android (Chrome and Dolphin) I see that they display a mobile-specific version of the gmail Web site.

    Firefox for Android only displays the version of office on my Nexus 7 (5.1 runs Android 2012) - and therefore more difficult to read and use. Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    Well, Yes, it's that Word annoying Tablet.

    What I'm going to describe is difficult to type, so I hope that you can open this page on your tablet.

    Select (0) and copy the following text on your Tablet if possible to avoid the excesses of type:

    general.useragent.override.mail.google.com Android; Tablet;#Android; Mobile;
    

    The forum linkifies this first part, but it is not supposed to be a link.

    (1) open a new tab to Subject: config (type about: config the Awesomebar and hit the arrow go or tap Enter).

    You can bookmark it for easy future access.

    (2) in the search box, type agen and make a pause while Firefox filter list

    (3) scroll down to the bottom and look for a preference named general.useragent.site_specific_overrides and confirm that it has its default value true. If it is set to false, press the reset button for it back to true.

    (4) scroll back up and press the big button "+" to the left of the search box to add a new parameter

    (A) the name of the preference must be general.useragent.override.google. com (for all Google sites) general.useragent.override.mail.google. com (for Gmail only)

    If you type this, beware of the correction automatic insertion of spaces and be sure to remove those.

    If paste, remove the part after that.

    (B) on the right side, type Boolean and in the popup, change it to a String

    (C) the value of the preference should be Android; Tablet; #Android; Mobile; -in other words, substituting Mobile for Tablet.

    If you type, pay attention to the excess spaces.

    If gluing, remove the preference name and extra space before this part.

    (D) then click on create

    If you open https://mail.google.com/ must now use the mobile layout.

    Success?

    Edit: To clarify the name of preference options.

  • How can I force a download rather than open a preview of the file of the file a hyperlink?

    When I hyperlink a file (pdf, txt, etc.) it opens a preview of the file, rather than just start downloading, I wonder how to achieve this.

    Example of what I want to do...

    https://www.Google.com/chrome/browser/desktop/index.html

    When you click on "Download Chrome", it opens a window asking if you want to download, then when you click Yes it downloads the file.

    I would like to do exactly that, or force the download immediately, without popup dialog box.

    Thank you!

  • "Weird" style CSS rather than JS Online

    On the parts of the IRR, out of the box, the odd table rows are assigned to the class 'weird' and rows are assigned to the 'same.' class In addition, they receive correctly following the user actions that modify the IRR content such as filter, control Break etc.. Thus, these classes always receive reliable.

    We wanted to have the alternation of the colors of line for the lines 'weird '. We have been able to do this with JavaScript as follows:
    function applyAlternateRowBackground()
    {
        var rows = $('table.apexir_WORKSHEET_DATA tbody tr:gt(0)');
    
        rows.each(function(index) 
        {
            evenOdd = index % 2;
    
            if( evenOdd == 1) 
            {       
                $(this).children("td").css("background-color","#F3F3F3");
            }            
                   
        });
    }
    However, we really try to keep our formatting and our separate functional code. Therefore, we greatly prefer to control this operation with CSS rather than JavaScript, especially since the assignment of class work has already been done for us. So, we tried that, I think, the work should :
    .apexir_WORKSHEET_DATA tr.odd td
    {
        background-color: #F3F3F3;
    }
    It does not work. I see the corresponding rule in the tools of Chrome to our CSS file, apexOverrides.css. However, it is marked by the intermediary.

    Why does js?
    Why it does work with the above CSS code snippet?
    What can we do to make this work in the CSS (so we can get rid of JS)?

    Thank you

    Don't forget Re: weird IRR button colors in Internet Explorer (only!) we would ignore specificity? Time to stop making...

    Looks like this, from 4.1.css, it a substitute for it:

    #apexir_DATA_PANEL > table .apexir_WORKSHEET_DATA td, #apexir_GROUP_BY > table .apexir_WORKSHEET_DATA td
    

    What can we do to make this work in the CSS (so we can get rid of JS)?

    How 'replace '?

    Either use a selector with greater specificity (using the theme selector + tr.odd will do this):

    #apexir_DATA_PANEL > table .apexir_WORKSHEET_DATA tr.odd td {
      background-color: #F3F3F3;
    }
    

    or force the issue with the ! important directive:

    .apexir_WORKSHEET_DATA tr.odd td {
      background-color: #F3F3F3 !important;
    }
    
  • Can I actually delete messages rather than having that they are sent to the Recycle Bin?

    I want to know how I can delete messages rather than the envoys in a junk folder or recycle bin and then delete them from there. I have several filters set up and send them to separate subfolders. But of course, when I look at these and remove them, they go in the trash. Then I can actually delete them so that they're gone, that's what I think delete would do in the first place. Is it possible to do so, to delete messages without moving them to the trash and then remove them from there? It is important that I don't miss any messages, I still sometimes do, but I'll have 50 posts or more per day that are trash. Most of them pass through my filters, but if I do not have a daily interview with a bunch of garbage I'd meet a real nightmare.
    Surely people have requested this, and I've seen some with answers like "it's the way it was designed. Can it be done?

    Thank you, if there is a useful link that send.

  • How can I close a tab that has locked up, rather than farm the whole browser to be insensitive?

    I have a bad habit of having several tabs open. If I click on a link that translates the whole browser becomes unresponsive, how do I close the tab offending rather than having to close the entire browser and losing all my tabs?

    It is not a bad habit, it's normal.

    Unfortunately, there is currently no way to 'kill' a single tab without picking up Firefox.

    A few times a week I get "not responding" when I exceed the amount of memory Firefox can use. Usually about 60-90 seconds, I can close Firefox by using the menu, either:

    • "3-bar" menu button > button "power".
    • (menu bar) File > Exit
    • These same keys in order:Alt f x

    Freezes caused by other reasons could not out, in which case you get stuck. Prevention is the best cure.

    This support article covers some common reasons for freezes: Firefox crashes or does not - how to fix.

    Since the Flash plugin can also cause this problem and it is used everywhere around the web, I suggest the following to minimize potential problems with Flash in your troubleshooting:

    (1) to avoid unnecessary pain on the sites where the Flash is not really essential, try to set the Flash on Click-to-Play (Ask 'activation'). This will delay the Flash start on a page, until you approve.

    To set 'Ask to activate', open the page modules using either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click on Plugins. Search 'Shockwave Flash' and always change 'enable' to 'ask to activate '.

    With this setting, when you visit a site that wants to use the Flash, you should see a notification icon in the address bar and usually (but not always) one of the following values: a link in a gray rectangle dark in the page or an information bar sliding between the toolbar and in the page area.

    The plugin notification in the address bar icon usually resembles a little Lego block, dark gray. (If it is red, Flash must update.)

    The delay in the activation of Flash can help distinguish between the problems caused on the initial page load, put in folds and script activation vs Flash/loading bar.

    If you see a good reason to use Flash, and the site looks trustworthy, you can go ahead and click on the notification icon in the address bar to allow Flash. You can trust the site for the time being or permanently.

    But some pages use Flash only for tracking or play ads, so if you do not see an immediate need for Flash, feel free to ignore the notification! He will just stand here in case you want to use it later.

    (2) a common cause of errors in script does not work in Windows Vista and later is the feature of mode of the Flash player plugin. This feature has the security benefits, but it seems to have serious compatibility problems on some systems. You can disable it using the page modules. Either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click on Plugins. On the right side, find 'Shockwave Flash' and click on the link for more. Then uncheck the box for "Enable Adobe Flash protected mode" and try it for a day to see if that helps you.

  • How can I set my homepage to a new request tab rather than "suggested" or "white"?

    With the latest updates of Firefox, the tabs have changed. In the past, I was able to have a new tab open to my homepage (google), but seem to now have sites either empty or suggested/frequently visited. Although this sounds like a minor problem, he build a movement additional/click/selection and is a bit of your time and irritating - most of my use of the internet has its source in a research rather than a favorite site.
    Someone knows a way back?
    Thank you very much.

    The preference of browser.newtab.url has been added to Firefox 13. Over the years, he was repeatedly attacked by malware. From Firefox 41, the preference can be changed using an interface programming or, in simpler terms, an extension.

    For example, you can use this extension:

    https://addons.Mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-override/

    After installing the extension, you must use the Options page to set the new desired tab page (instead of use subject: config).

    Open the page modules using either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a (Mac: Cmd + shift + a)
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click Extensions. Then on the side right, find the new tab override and click the Options button. (See first screenshot attached).

    Depending on the size of your screen, you may need to scroll down to enter the address in the form. (See second screenshot attached). For example:

    • (Default) page thumbnails = > subject: newtab
    • Blank tab = > subject: empty
    • Built-in Firefox homepage = > topic: welcome
    • Any other page = > full URL of the page

    Then tab or click this form field and you can test using Ctrl + t.

    Success?

    Once you have set it as you wish, you can close the Add-ons page (or use the back button to return to the list of Extensions of this Options page).

    The massive 38 version of space around the titles and toolbars; the "subject" bar takes the massive space and is therefore no longer minimizable and attachments display in a new toolbar background rather than in the bar as to, subject and SIZE.

    THANK YOU, WAYNE. This addon got the + and - back themed bar releasing much needed content space.

    It leaves the 'bar fixing' at the bottom that is just a minor inconvenience, takes little vertical space. In the old system, it was just an element in the list of properties for incoming e-mail.

    Once again, thank you very much for your excellent help. Best for you, Eddie

  • Is it possible to create a spreadsheet Numbers alternating line colors I choose (rather than just a line alternating color)?

    Is it possible to create a spreadsheet Numbers alternating line colors I choose (rather than just a line alternating color)?

    Hi tochan,.

    No, but it is possible to create this look.

    Procedure:

    Open a table.

    Format > table

    Check the alternative line color. The yellow value.

    Click the form button, select the rectangle.

    Click the shape to select it.

    Format > Style

    Set the fill color to green.

    The border value without border.

    Move the shape to align with the upper left corner of the table.

    Drag the handle at the bottom right of the form to the lower right of the table.

    Go to organize > Send to back (or backward and repeat until the form is behind the table, and the Green shape is visible through the non colored lines).

    Note that the form is independent of the table. If the lines are added to the table, alternating lines will continue to have the yellow filling, as it has been applied to the table itself, but the lines between indicate white background, until the shape is expanded to match the size of the table.

    Select the Table (by clicking on the 'target' at the top left.

    Go arrange > Send backward. (Repeat if necessary until the form is in the front of the table)

    Select the shape.

    Resized according to the table.

    Go arrange > Send backward.
