If you ever want to set the your default Chrome instance back to the non-Canary version, just launch that version and go to settings and click “Make Google Chrome the default browser” (or use the Safari method I mention above. You can check it by going to your Chrome Settings/Preferences. Choose the browser you want (in my case, I wanted “Google Chrome Canary.app”).Īfter that, Chrome Canary should be your default browser for all links.Click on the “Default web browser” dropdown.Here are the steps to change your default browser: Apple wants you to use Safari so they bury the Internet preferences in the settings there. But then I remembered…look at Apple’s Safari browser. My first guess was to go to System Preferences, but there is nothing that controls the Default Browser there. The process to change your default browser on the Mac is actually pretty easy, once you know where to look. How to Change the Default Browser on the Mac Looking at my normal Chrome settings, I saw that it was set as the default browser: “This is a secondary installation of Google Chrome, and cannot be made your default browser.” So, I went to the settings of Chrome Canary to set the default there, but was presented with an interesting error: However, since I already had Chrome installed (and it was set as the default), I wasn’t prompted. Instead of editing the registry, use the preferred method for Windows OS: Set Default Programs in Control Panel 1. Normally, when you launch a new install of a browser on a Mac, it asks you if you want to set it as the Default Browser. Since I already had Chrome (not Chrome Canary) installed and it was the default browser, every time clicked a link (e.g., in email), the “older” version of Chrome (not the Canary version) would open. I had been using the beta channel (and dev channels) for my “regular” version of Chrome on my Mac, but I wanted to test out the 64-bit version of the browser as it was supposed to be “faster.” However, I ran into an issue. It has the latest features and is targeted towards early adopters, developers and the like. If you want what Google calls “the bleeding edge of the web” type of browser, you can download and install Google Chrome Canary for Mac (or Windows). For this reason, Google is advising online publishers to clean up their act before the feature goes live, i.e., to begin complying with Better Ads standards and remove annoying ads from their sites.Google recently released a 64-bit version of its browser, Chrome Canary.

But in the long run, if it helps move the industry towards a better ad experience and reduces the use of ad blockers, it’d mean everyone wins.” which would mean we take a short term hit. ![]() We may have to turn off some networks or ban interstitials etc. “It is going to suck short term for publishers like us when we’re already fighting hard every day for yield. ![]() This leaves many publishers in a bit of pickle. Google also has some helpful advice on how to craft the whitelist message. ![]() Named Funding Choices, the program is in beta and available to publishers in North America, U.K., Germany, Australia, and New Zealand, with roll out planned for other countries later this year. This led us to assume that as of now, Google may be testing the ad filter in countries where it is also testing Funding Choices – a metered paywall for adblock users which will let online publishers offer them one of two choices: Disable (third-party) adblock on the site or buy $1 ad removal pass to access content. Techcrunch later confirmed the findings, but neither NDTV nor we at AdPushup (in India) could find the option in the Chrome Canary or Dev builds for Android.
