No URL address tab in my toolbar

I have woken up this morning and there is no URL tab for me to type in an website address. I've tried 'view' and 'show toolbar'. I've tried a diagnostic test and no problem was found.
Any ideas please? There's only so many times I can look at the Apple homepage.
Cheers

Choose View -> Customize Toolbar
Drag the Adress Field into your Toolbar
Click Done

  • Worst update ever! On my Vista everything is wrong! Back button never active; If I want open pages as new tab it opens new window; FF starts with blank page instead of Google; No url address shown on status bar when I move mouse arrow on the link etc

    Worst update ever! On my Vista everything is wrong! Back button never active; If I want open pages as new tab it opens new window; FF starts with blank page instead of Google; No url address shown on status bar when I move mouse arrow on the link etc.. Please Help!

    Try the Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there. <br />
    ''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
    * You can open the Firefox 4.0+ SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
    ''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
    '''''If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. <br />

  • Changing the URL address in browser toolbar

    I develop websites and interactive content to be used on screen for film and tv. I usually don't upload sites to a server and just preview them locally on laptops and desktops by obviously opening the .home or .index page in whatever browser is installed.
    My question is, is there anyway to change the URL that is displayed in the toolbar to another address ?
    Generally the toolbar in the browser will display a path where the files are saved i.e. file:///Users/Documents/WEB%20DESIGN/ABRD/home.html - but I would like to display for example www.mysite.com
    Most of the time I just hide the tool / address bar in Safari or Firefox, but it would be good to be able to show a real looking address other than a file path.
    Hoping there is some way to achieve this in the html code that will work locally ? I've read about URL masking but that needs the sites to be uploaded to a server for it to work?
    Thanks, any help is greatly appreciated.

    Depending on the local server you are using you could set up a virtual host:
    This is a basic example using a Windows host with an Apache server:

  • Why is screen blank when click "new tab", where is the window to type in url address

    I cannot see the URL address of page I am on if I want to cut/paste and keep it, also I have to keep opening another mozilla firefox over and over as the newtab feature shows a blank page each time. Where is the area to type in URL address? How come I cannot have a series of pages open typing a new address on each page like I used to?

    I found my own answer. If this happens, go to "view", "toolbars," and put a check next to "navigation toolbar."

  • Lost my url address window. U clicked "customize toolbar" from "View"  but no instructions on what to do next. HELP! on

    Lost my url address window. I clicked on "Customize toolbar" from "View" but there were no instructions on what to do next. How do I get url window back?  Thanks!

    Hello:
    Simply drag what you want (view>customize toolbar) to the toolbar.

  • When I open a second Firefox browser window, the URL address window, instead of showing the URL, says "Go to a Web Site;" also, and more importantly, the "back" button is greyed out. This is a new problem, and the first Firefox window I open works fine.

    After I open the first Firefox browser window, any additional window I open does not open my homepage, but opens a blank page with "New Tab" showing on the tab. An orange "Firefox" tab with a drop down arrow shows at the upper left hand corner of the screen. All of the options (File, Edit, etc.) are greyed out, however they will work if you move your cursor over them.
    The URL address window says "Go to a Web Site". After I've gone to a website, the back button remains greyed out and I am not able to go back to a previous page. My RoboForm and Netcraft toolbars only show up in an abbreviate form. The add-on bar doesn't show up at all.
    Again, this is a recent problem, and only happens after I've opened one browser window (which works fine) and then open additional browser windows (as few as one additional).

    I had this same problem. Seems to be caused by the web developer tool bar FF extension (this started happening after a recent update to that extension). After disabling it, my FF is back to normal :)

  • The URL address line box, google earch box have disappeared, please help!

    The URL address box and the Google search engine box normally at the top of the page have disappeared. Also the back/frorad buttons have disappeared - please help!

    Hi,
    Please try going to '''View''' (or '''Alt''' + '''V''') > '''Toolbars''' and enable (tick) '''Navigation Toolbar'''. Alternatively right-click on the '''+''' on the right side of the last tab or the empty space after and choose '''Navigation Toolbar'''.

  • Why doesn't iCloud retain hyperlinks or live URL addresses in iCloud contacts?

    Why doesn't iCloud retain hyperlinks or live URL addresses in contacts?
    Hardware/Software Setup Scenario:
    PC with Windows 7 and Microsoft Office 7 Pro at home for which all ISP (Cox Communications) e-mail is integrated with Microsoft Outlook 7. New Apple iPhone 4S linked to MS Outlook Contacts, Calendars, Tasks (Reminders) and Notes via iCloud. All e-mail bypasses iCloud (not needed).
    Problem:
    When initially migrating Microsoft Office 7 Contacts to Contacts in iCloud, Outlook creates a new folder named "Contacts in iCloud," which does synchronize quickly with your iCloud Contacts folder (in Outlook) on your computer at home and your iPhone when you're on the road. That is a great thing to have, and it works well for my calendar, which constantly changes. The unfortunate predicament is that there are some major problems that occur when you convert your Contacts records to iCloud as follows.
    My Contact Notes in Microsoft Office 7, which contain rich formatted text, Microsoft program hyperlinks and live URL addresses (web sites, email addresses, etc.) are all lost because iCloud converts all of it into basic text, rendering the entire Contact Notes box useless. The only way to note a hyperlink is to go back to the web site or email address (if you still have it) and copy the properties in plain text into your notes -- not a reasonable solution.
    An additional problem seen when moving Outlook Contacts to Contacts in iCloud is that the Contact Notes in the new "Contacts in iCloud" are systematically affected by sporadically dropped spaces between words requiring a manual or spell check "cleanup" of every contact -- not reasonable for a folder of approximately 1,000 contacts.
    I have also found that importing my Outlook Contacts into iCloud empties the Outlook "Contacts" folder. Once you have created your new "Contacts in iCloud" folder, the Outlook contacts are gone for good, unless you want to retrieve them from a backup file. The problem is that Outlook will only allow one of these two Contact folders for use; so you’re faced with choosing between syncing your Outlook Contacts manually between your iPhone on iTunes using the USB cable connected to your computer -- not reasonable for someone on the move; or, transfer your contacts to iCloud live with worthless notes for your contacts.
    Can anyone suggest a better work around?

    I'm replying to myself here, but just in case someone else has this problem: I uninstalled the Avery Toolbar and iCloud works on by browser once again. I don't know why or how Avery Toolbar makes a difference, but apparently, it does.  If anyone knows how or why, I'd be interested.

  • Firefox 8 crashes when clicking on a link that has a very long URL address

    I use Windows 7. I have crashes only with links that have a very long URL address, e.g.
    http://b.bm324.com/public/?q=ulink&fn=Link&ssid=10573&id=50hf3f24ltqgsgf2l342rz7tdtugj&id2=4m0o6e8hmn9bixohu56j29j2ah0bf&subscriber_id=aiblbktoaociiexqfdaqifnfacgubpl&delivery_id=adspyssufmivdxikgbynsteprrknbpj&tid=3.KU0.Bp_cqw.CXq9.MPvF..UDBh.b..l.ApvV.a.Tr8LdQ.Tr8LdQ.-KHXEw

    No, I am not using the Trend Micro toolbar. After much trial and error, I discovered that Firefor 8 crashes only when I click on the the long URL when Firefox is not running. When I start Firefox before I click on the long URL, Firefox does not crash

  • How to open a URL address within a PDF document?

    I'm using Adobe Reader X, v 10.1.3
    When coming across a URL address, my curser turns into a "hand" when clicking it, but it won't take me to the website, even though I have an open browser (chrome) in the background. The Help Files have been of no help. Can anyone help me? I tried preferences, looking under the Internet option, but nothing seems to address this need.
    Many thanks!
    susan

    Hi there - I could click the URL in your note above and I wound up on the Adobe website. (When hitting the windows key and the letter R key together, if that's what you meant, nothing happened. When going via Start button, RUN, the http entry resulted in chrome openining a new Adobe window/tab as expected. I've not had any trouble getting any hyperliks to open, until I tried one in a PDF document using Adobe Reader X earlier today. I tired reinstalling Adobe X, updated from the 10.1.3 version, but the new version never seemed to install. However, going back to the original program, same PDF doc, when clicking on the hyperlink, lo and behold, this time, a window opened up asking me if I trusted the site, to which I checked off "yes", then clicked Allow, and it took me to the appropriate website. I haven't a clue why this failed to work before, and no window appeared like the one I just tried.
    So thanks for your help, but it appears that it's fixed itself.
    Best regards,
    Susan

    thanks for your help - when I hit View, I then chose Customize Toolbar and that allowed me to drag the address bar into the toolbar area.

  • Lost URL address

    The URL address bar has disappeared from my toolbar. when I go to 'customize toolbar' I can see it but when I close this and view my homepage in Safari it isn't there. the only way I can type a URL is if I select Google which I previously saved as a bookmark.
    I have also tried to change my current toolbar and nothing happens. It's like it's locked or something.
    I'm a very new MAC user and getting so frustrated

    Have you tried dragging the address bar from "customize toolbar" up to the top of your browser?
