I like using Chrome for drat near everything. Is there a way to know which process is which tab? I've got a tab I use daily at work that I need open at all times and if my tab browsing SA crashes, I'd like to know which one to kill

I'm new to Chrome. I'm used to the Quick Search bar in Firefox, so I have no idea how to search using the Omnibar(?). Typing in poo poo uses my default engine (Google) and that's fine, but what do I do when I want to look up something on Wikipedia or YouTube real quick? Those two and others are in my search engines list in the settings, but I don't know how to utilize them without making them default.

You can set up keywords in the settings. E.g. if you set wiki as the keyword for Wikipedia search when you type "wiki" followed by something you'll search for it on Wikipedia.

Excellent. Thanks! Another question about search engines: The browser seems to be picking up certain sites I visit and adding it to the list. What determines whether or not a site is added (I noticed Dictionary.com was added, while Amazon.ca wasn't)? Are they in some sort of repository?

(efb ) Chrome can also auto-discover search fields on a lot of sites. I don't have a YouTube keyword defined, but I can type "you<tab>" and search YouTube: Mak0rz posted:Excellent. Thanks! From http://www.mattcutts.com/blog/common-google-chrome-objections/: quote:Just in case you’re curious, the auto-search-discovery is triggered by search fields on the root page of the domain. I don’t have a search field on the root page of my domain (www.mattcutts.com), so if I go to www.mattcutts.com/blog/ and do a search there, Google Chrome won’t learn the autocomplete-with-the-Tab key trick. Instead, I would need a search box on www.mattcutts.com for the Tab key to learn to search (it’s also good to use standard POST HTML submits instead of anything too fancy like JavaScript). If that sounds too hard, there’s an easy solution for you: Google Chrome supports OpenSearch discovery too. abraham linksys fucked around with this message at 23:36 on Apr 25, 2012 |

Anyone knows what the hold up is in creating a 64bit version for Windows? Searching for it, I land on a bunch of outdated wiki paged at their project site.

No need, lack of plug in support mostly I would think. I mean, IE 64 bit exists, but who uses it?
|
# ? Apr 26, 2012 17:57 |

I use the 64bit versions of Firefox. They appear to be faster, and they're currently a little more resilient, because any buffer overrun exploits and the like are not expecting 64bit mode.

So, why in the gently caress does Chrome require admin to be made the default browser? I'm thinking of pushing it out at work, since they've made that so easy, but the one sticking point I have is setting it as the default browser.

What about a users default browser goes into the machine hive, and why can Firefox and IE do it without requiring admin? I don't want to force people to use Chrome, I want to give them the option to use chrome.

I don't want to force people to use Chrome, I want to give them the option to use chrome. Actually, This TechNet forums article touches on it briefly. I guess it's a Google mandated thing? I've seen a couple of posts around on the Chromium bug list about this, but they're all pretty old or unanswered. Short answer: I have no idea. Is Chrome being run from their profile or is it in Program Files?

Anyone else having issue's using google maps? mine appears to sit there "Un-Responsive" works perfectly under ie9 & ff 3.6.28 win7 64bit Running the latest stable version of chrome. Funnly enough when i load up chrome under ubuntu 11:04 that uses the same extensions but synced under a different profile google maps works flawlessly.

So can anyone tell me what the hell is going on here? I have the Webkit Fix and SALR extensions and no combination of them seems to fix it. Enabling the timg fix in SALR doesn't make the huge space appear, but the expand link is still non-functional. I'm using Windows 7 64-bit with Chrome v18.0.1025.168 m. Weird thing is, the exact same configuration works fine on Xubuntu 12.04 with... whatever the latest Linux version of Chrome is. Before hovering over the thumbnail: After (clicking the expand link still doesn't work here):

I'm managing two different youtube/google accounts. Is there any way for me to be logged into both in different tabs? I've tried googling and everybody seems to suggest using one account in "normal" chrome and the other in incognito. I was thinking there had to be some kind of extension available for this.

Howmuch posted:I'm managing two different youtube/google accounts. Settings -> Users -> Add New User. Each user has its own cookies and history and such, so you can have multiple accounts open that way. The drawback to this is that you can't combine the windows.

Prize Loser posted:Settings -> Users -> Add New User. So it's basically the same as the incognito trick (stuck with two windows instead of two different tabs) except now it at least has cookies, which is a huge plus. Thanks for that, I'll probably end up using it this way.

I'm getting an annoying bug in the current public (18.0.1025.168) version of Chrome. Whenever I click on a link from an external source like an IM the link will open in a new tab in my current Chrome window, but it will also open a new window that goes to my default page. Is anyone else getting this behavior?

It's really annoying since IM/IRC are what I use the most, and copy/paste all day is tedious. I'm using the same version, 18.0.1025.168, but this has always been Chrome's behavior and one of the things that kept me on Firefox for a long time. Is there a way to fix this?
