Address bar disappearing

I recently had to reinstall Safari because it was crashing every time I opened it. I think maybe something was wrong with my preferences file.
Now that I've installed it from scratch (version 5.0.3), I cannot make the address bar stay visible. When I open a new window, it always opens without the address bar visible, and I have to go to View > Show Toolbar to make it appear again. I've looked in the preferences but I can't see any option to make the default behaviour to have the address bar visible. I've also tried right-clicking the address bar and choosing "Keep Item Visible" but when I open a new window, the address bar is gone again.
Am I missing something very obvious? If anyone knows how to make address bar visible by default, I'd be very grateful.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
From your Safari menu bar click View / Customize Toolbar. Drag up the default bar straight up to the address bar.
Carolyn.

Search the Web box to the right of my address bar disappeared, how do I get it back?

The "Search the Web box to the right of my address bar disappeared. How do I get it back?

It is gone in the new version of Safari and the Safari in Mountain Lion. You cannot get it back.
Search is now done inside the adress bar, so you did not lose the search functionally. The location has changed.

Why the address bar disappeared?

The address bar disappeared in Safari's web brower. I goto "view", chose either "show address bar" or "hide address bar", but couldn't solve the problem. Would any one know how to get the bar appear? Thank you!

I came across the same problem where I can't do anything in "Customize Address bar" option window.
If "Customize Address Bar" doesn't change anything, it's likely you have the whole toolbar hidden, such that customizing it won't make any visible difference.
Try this: View > Show Toolbar

The address bar disappeared from all webpages and I don't know how to get it back. Can someone help me?

The address bar disappeared from all web pages and I can't type in a webpage. I don't know how to get it back. Can someone PLEASE help me get it back? Thanks!!!

Hi Jordyn. I'm assuming you're using Safari. Open it. On the top bar click on View > Customize Toolbar. You should see the address bar there and simply drag it where you want to place it in Safari. Hope this helps.

Address bar disappears

After I installed iOS 8 on my iPad my address bar disappears when I'm on the Safari page. Any idea how to keep that from happening? It shows back up once I start scrolling down similar to what the iPhone does but it's rather annoying. Also when I use the bookmark tab to click on a new web address it no longer disappears automatically, I have to manually close it again any idea how that works?

If you want the desktop version try this.

Address bar disappears in browser after scroll

I was looking at an iPhone 4S at the Verizon store, and was reading a very long webpage article about the phone. When I got to the bottom, I noticed that the URL bar was gone, and it took me over 10 swipes to get back up to it. This is really a pain in the butt and I couldn't figure out how to get the bar back. How do I do that? Android is really easy in that it scrolls really quickly and only takes me one swipe, but iPhone slows down fast and I have to keep swiping.

Congratulations, your statement is correct.
As for the question hidden in there, swipe up too the top of the page, and slide it a little bit more and the address bar appears. Too my knowledge there's no setting for it.
If you don't like it, don't buy it.

no address/url box at all!

Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
* If items are missing then open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize"
* If a missing item is in the toolbar palette then drag it back from the Customize window on the toolbar
* If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up.

Address Bar Gone???

Dear Users, my address bar disappeared so I can't enter a URL. What do I do?

Hi
Drag the circled item to the toolbar (position it towards the right side). Then, select "done".
While you're at it, you can drag any other icon to the left side of the toolbar. Some users like to keep the toolbar simple (few icons). Others like me - the "sky's the limit".
