Support: Always v. Just Once

On my S3 I often get a prompt offering various programs that might meet my needs (IE, Firefox etc) for the next action and asking whether I want to use this facility 'Just Once' or 'Always'. If I select 'Always' it comes up with a message saying to set up Settings, Application Manager, All.

When I go to S/AM/All I cannot find what I am supposed to do to indicate the default method of completing the action.

Please advise.

When you select "Always", you are setting a default application for a particular action. The message is telling you that in order to clear the default app for that action, go into Settings>Application Manager>All then select the app in question. From there, tap the "Clear Defaults" button and the next time you complete that action, you will be prompted to select an app again.
