default application for opening links

[michaeljenkins]

hi there,
have an asus transformer prime running android 4.1.1, the 1st time i opened a link to a youtube video from the facebook app it asked what app i'd like to open it with, i selected firefox and chose 'always', so now it always opens youtube links in facebook with firefox. I've changed my mind and would now like to open them with the 'youtube' app, where/how do i change this setting?? i've tried looking in the aplication settings, and tried clearing the data and cache for the facebook app but no progress.

Go to Firefox in the settings>applications, then "clear defaults". You have to scroll down for it.

thanks! that un-did the default setting so now i'm free to choose which web browser i want, but the 'youtube' app isn't an option, guess that's due to the way facebook made the app/not something i can change?

Choose the default browser, since its a Youtube link, once the browser detects it, it will ask you if you want to open it on the Youtube app.

Works like a charm, thank you very much once again!
