Customize Address Bar has disappeared!

I'm running Safari (2.0.4 419.3) and suddenly (the past week or so) my "Customize Address Bar" menu item has disappeared and has been replaced with a laundry list of menu items. Somehow I think I caused this, but really I just want to fix it and get the Customize Address Bar item back.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!
Ron

Hi ya Ron, you are most welcome; )
It used to work, really.
Due to your first post, how do you think you altered it, she asks again;
alright you need not say;~))
Try running disk permission repair, to do so.
First, "Quit" all Applications.
Go to your Applications folder, see the Utilities folder, click on that
Now find the Disk Utility.
Double click to launch Disk Utility
Your HD will show up in the left side bar. Click on your HD.
Once you click on it, you will see the toolbar, click on "First Aid" tab
Click on button "Disk permissions repair". also on the left side of the
window, run repair not verify.
Now do a restart, when it has rebooted, restart once more.
This fixes a lot of problems, I hope it will fix this one for you.
If you already know how to, sorry just can to be clear.
as an aside to make a √, hold the option key down √ and click the v key
Please let me know if the perm run helps any, <fingers crossed>I hope so.

My address bar has disappeared in Safari 5.1 - not the same issue as discussed elsewhere in Forum

My address bar has disappeared in Safari 5.1. When I click "Customize Toolbar" to fix it, the Home and arrow buttons become unusable--they just click but nothing happens.See image below.
I have to close the window and open a new one to get the buttons to work, but the address bar does not return.
I am running OS 10.6.8.
Any suggestions?

Sorry, can't view the image. Try reformatting to JPG.
Re the toolbar. Since this issue started after the 5.1 update, could be a third party Safari add on that was compatible with the prior version of Safari but not 5.1 that's preventing the Toolbar to load correctly.

The Safari web address bar has disappeared, how do I get it back?

Thanks Roger I can now see the name of the website and if I right click on the name it shows me the web address. I used to be able to see the web address e.g. "https//google.co.uk" in this bar without having to right click on the name, is there a way of bringing this back?

In Firefox 3.6 on Windows you can hide the menu bar via "View > Toolbars" or via the right click context menu on a toolbar.
Press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the menu bar.
Go to "View > Toolbars" or right-click the menu bar or press Alt+V T to select which toolbars to show or hide (click on an entry to toggle the state).

Hi, my address bar where i would normally type a web address has disappeared. i don't know why. I have run virus scans and it doesn't appear to be that. I don't know how to get the address bar back. can you help please?

* If the menu bar is hidden then press F10 or hold down the Alt key, that should make the "Menu Bar" appear
* Go to "View > Toolbars" and check-mark "Menu Bar" with a click if you want to make that permanent
See [[Menu bar is missing]])
* Make sure that the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
* If items are missing then open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"
* 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 that item then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up

Address bar has disappeared

Can't find address bar

I am not sure what an address bar is, but if you mean the place you type http etc and it is not visible you should do this. Click on view at the top of your screen, then click on toolbars in the drop down menu. If the Navigation toolbar does not have a check mark beside it, then click on that and the navigation should return.

My addrress bar has disappeared how do I get it back

My arrow to take me back to the previous page and my address bar has disappeared on firefox.How do I get them back?

Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible:
*Firefox > Options
*"View > Toolbars" (press F10 to display a hidden menu bar)
Open the Customize window to set which toolbar items to display:
*Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout
*View > Toolbars > Customize
*If missing items are in the toolbar palette then drag them 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

The address and search bar has disappeared from Safari. How do I get it back?

I own an iMac (Mac OS X, version 10.6

My husband and I use the same computer. The address and search bar has disappeared from Safari on my desktop but not his. How do I get it back? All I have is the Apple page when I open Safari.

Choose Show Toolbar or Customize Toolbar from the View menu and put it back.

The location bar has disappeared from the top of any tab that I open. How can I get it back?

The location bar has disappeared from the top of any tab I open, so there is nowhere to type in a web address. Could I have accidentally made this happen? How do I get it back?

Just to be clear, it's not below the tab bar either? (That's the new style in Firefox 4 and 5.)
To hide or show toolbars, you can use the old View menu.
If you have the orange Firefox button, tap the Alt key to temporarily display the classic menu bar.
View menu > Toolbars > ''check'' Navigation Toolbar
If you are viewing the navigation toolbar but it's incomplete or corrupted, you can reset your toolbars.
View menu > Toolbars > Customize
In the large dialog with the icons, toward the bottom, click Restore Default Set.
Does any of that help?

Safari browser bar has disappeared! need to restore it

It sounds like the address bar itself is there, but maybe the buttons and/or the address and search windows are gone. (I've had my back/next buttons disappear for no apparent reason.)
If that's the case, it's easily fixed: Under the "View" menu, select "Customize Address Bar." This will display all the options for the bar, so you can drag whatever you want to the bar. (Note that there's a "default set" that you can drag all in one move if you want.)
Let us know if this works.

My space bar has disappeared when I open safari, and has been replaced by other keys. I don't understand why?

My space bar has disappeared when I open safari and been replaced by other keys, does anyone know how this happened?

When you tap in the address field to type the web address, another keyboard pops up without the space bar as no spaces are need when typing the web address. Just tap anywhere on the screen or on the keyboard icon in the lower right corner and the keyboard will go away.

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in Full Screen mode with all toolbars hidden.
* Press F11 to toggle full screen mode (Firefox/File > Full Screen)
If the menu bar is hidden then press the F10 key or hold down the Alt key, that should make the menu bar appear.
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" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout" (Linux, Windows)
* 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.
