Windows 10: Bing search results

Fairly simple. All searches, especially for generic businesses or shopping related searches always return american results. Location is set to australia. I am signed in. Windows location is set to my city and country. Changing search engines isnt an option as i do most of my searching from the windows search bar.



Even international websites the american version is suggested only. dont really want to buy a kids playground in another country. Pizza near me?

Bing Map search not showing results

Hi,

When I do a search in Bing Maps (e.g subway or restaurant) it never finds any results. If, however, I search using Bing search application (outside of maps) it *does* find localised results!

I also check Bing maps from my PC, and that too finds localised results! Is there something I'm missing from my phone? Are we meant to use keywords when searching from Bing Maps on the phone?

I am from Melbourne (Australia), using a Samsung Omnia 7 phone on the Optus network.

Thanks,

Mike

 

Bing Maps - not working (search), and Bing Search (local results)

Hello



I have read similar problems with Bing where you need to get the phrasing correct in the Maps application for search results to show up, but I am not getting ANY results period in the map app, unless I type in an exact address. I also tried none local searches
(such as bestbuy dallas texas, or best buy dallas texas) to no avail. Bing search and everything else works but I cannot look things up, like if I type in Mcdonalds, instead of getting McDonalds results here in Edmonton, AB I get the town McDonald, BC. Wal
mart, etc nothing shows up. There are 4 offices in town at my work, on my Android type into maps and boom results, here I get no results found unless I type exact address. This is really odd.... Also no local search results in Bing Search(search button on
phone), I can type in Panago Pizza or just pizza in general and only comes up with tabs web and news, not local. My GPS works so i can't see it being a problem, and it shows up as Edmonton, AB in the bing search app as well (where it shows location). I live
in a city of 1 million so It's not an issue of no listings, an if i use bing on the computer the local search results show up fine. It's like a black hole in the phone, location is turned on, every setting I checked...
