Tasker help - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hi everyone,
I am trying to figure out how to use tasker to open the Google voice search app. All the videos on YouTube show how to open apps by taping one button on the screen but I want it like the moto x. I want it to be touch less. Can you help me out?

[Q] music app opens wrong app

I'm having a problem where I can't seem to open google music. It worked the first day I got this phone but now whenever I click the icon, it just opens the last app I had opened. This also happens on my galaxy tab 10.1. It's really annoying because I really wanna listen to music but I can't seem to get it to open. Does anyone know what I can do to fix this?
Have you tried going to Settings, Apps, Google Music and click clear defaults
I had the same problem until exiting out of all the apps it opened.

I have the same issue (4.01). Don't know what, besides a restart, can fix it, you can circumwent it with the music widget, though.

Did you read through the tasker wiki? It is extremely helpful. I wanted to set up something that automatically opens a shopping list when I go to a certain grocery store and while it is difficult to do, the Wiki walked me through location-based triggers.
There is a wiki?? Link please.

Install My Tracks (it's a Google app). Works great, you don't need 3g service for it to work and can load GPX track files from your SD card.
OruxMaps is a more comprehensive alternative you can try as well.

Screenshots of your favorite multiwindow setup

Just curious. I see very few reasons to use this feature. I just hold home for to seconds and hop back and forth. Or copy and paste. What do you guys love it for?

Is it too late to modify the topic before it's flooded with tons of useless pics showing 2 apps running? No offense, but it's an idea as pointless as posting home screens or telling which color phone you bought.
Perhaps we would all be helped by elaborating on, "how have you gotten the most use or productivity using mw"

I would love to help you, but help yourself first: ask a better question

When I'm editing files on my phone per instructions of a developer, it is nice to have both root explorer open as well as a screen shot from gallery illustrating what needs to be done so I don't have to keep closing and opening the file editing app.

I find it makes it easier to copy text from an app (like browser) into an SMS/email etc without switching back and forth. Don't use it a lot but when i do use it, it's very useful and works very well.
For me it solves the problem of YouTube shutting down whenever the app is not in use. I listen to a lot of music there and many videos aren't even videos but just images with the audio playing. Now I fire up youtube in 1 section and open the browser or whatever else in the other and maiximize its size.
I use it while doing Google chat with people while also Web browsing.

I like to play Word Feud in one window but have FB or Chrome open in the other then I can surf while I'm waiting for people to take their turns! Lol True multitasking at its finest.

Phone book on 360

Thanks

That would be cool. At the minimum "Ok google show Jon smith contact info" should work, but it results in a forced close crash on my s5 every time. If I do the same google voice search from the phone it works fine.
I thought that it was already possible to do so looks like I was wrong
