OS X :: Can't Set Safari 4 Snow Leopard Google Search Box To Google

Oct 15, 2009

Previously the solution was to install Safari plugins Inquisitor or Glims but Apple have removed the interfaces from Safari 4 that these plugins used - and there is still no built in Safari Preference to set the locale of the Google search. Effectively this renders the Safari Google Search field pretty well useless - at least for UK users. If you're searching for UK-based businesses or individuals, for example, the thousands of USA results that come up first are just not relevant - (that's an example of British Understatement. by the way

Safari :: Unable To Use The Search Window On The Right To Get Results When Google Is Selected As The Search Engine?

Feb 23, 2012

I am unable to use the search window on the right to get results when Google is selected as the search engine.I type in a search term and I am directed to a blank google search page. I have to type in the search term again, then I see a list of "hits". But when

I click on one of these hits I am not directed to the URL displayed. I have quit out of Safari and relaunched. I have rebooted my Mac. Neither changes the problem... This is a Google problem: I have the same symptoms when I use Safari on Windows XP.  When I switch the search engine to Bing, the problems go away, for both platforms Has Google been hacked?  Is this a Google attack on Safari?  How can I enter GoGoDuck as a search engine choice?

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

OS X :: Using 10.6 And Safari Google Search Tab?

Aug 30, 2009

After three easy erase, install, time machine backups everything is working great. I am amazing at how quick and easy it was to do this for my family's computers.

The only trouble I am having is getting google search results in Safari to open in another tab, instead of the same window, or a new window. Anyone else see this, or have a way to make this work? I like to click on a google link, and have it open in a new tab.

Applications :: Using Safari And Search In Google

Jan 16, 2009

One of the things I like about using Firefox is the ability to select a word and search for it in Google. In Firefox this opens a new tab but with Safari it uses the current tab which messes with the flow of my work. Are their any tweaks to making Safari open a new tab when using the search in google feature or am I stuck with using Firefox until Apple addresses this?

OS X :: Safari Google Search Bar - How To Change

May 22, 2009

I use Safari when I use mac (which is all the time now), I do use Firefox sometimes.

WHat I need to find out is there a way of setting up the search for UK searches.

For instance if I actually use google.co.uk you get the option of - pages from the UK.

But instead of going to to the google.co.uk page all the time is there a way in Safari so that the Google search engine will only show - pages from the UK

It used to be when I highlighted a word and right clicked the word, I could do a google search on it.

Now when I press google search it downloads something vs going to google on the browser.

What am I doing wrong? I can't seem to find anything in safari to change that.

Safari :: Keep Google Search In Toolbar?

Apr 23, 2012

Suddenly the toolbar at the top that shows the website and a spot to search google is gone.  The only way I can access it is to go to Edit>Find>Google Search. Once I've searched the toolbar disappears again and then there is no "back" button, so if I need to search again I have to go back to Edit>Find>Google Search.  UGH!

Applications :: Setting Google Search To UK In Safari

Nov 10, 2009

How can I change the google search to search google.co.uk? 90% of the time I'm only interested in UK stuff. Other wise I end up doing the search then editing the .com to .co.uk and sending again. Which seems very silly. Or loading up google UK in the first place.

OS X :: Google Search Enabled On Second Attempt In Safari

Aug 11, 2010

A few weeks ago I began to develop a problem when using Google search in Safari. It takes me there. However, when I enter my search term and submit, it just returns me to Google. I then reenter the search term again, and this second time, it always works. I have tried clearing cookies and cache. Firefox does not display this behavior nor other Macs I have even under Safari.

Safari :: Google Search String Changes When Go Back To Previous Page

Apr 25, 2012

This has been happening for awhile now. No doubt due to some upgrade. When I search for a string I'll get the list of google hits. And the search string will still be right in the window where I typed it. But sometimes after going to a link, I'll come back to this page and the page will be the same, but the search string is from a previous search. This is an inconvenience as I frequently go back to edit the search. I can't seem to reproduce it at the moment.

iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.8)
