Hide Tab Bar command

Under the View menu, there is a command that says 'Hide Tab Bar'. Mine is grayed out. Is anyone else able to select it? This command works with the Windows version.
btw- I liked the tabs on top in the Mac beta version

You should be able to select it. Try deleting the com.apple.safari plist from Home/Library/preferences.

How to use the Hide Tab Bar Command in Yosemite?

I guess I need a lesson in some basic Safari functionality. In Safari 8, when only one page is open (one tab, therefore), the Hide Tab Bar command in the View menu is functional. But, when a second tab is opened, the command is grayed out and the tab bar (at least in my configuration) is on screen with both tabs.
What is the point, therefore, of the Hide Tab Bar command if it is only functional when one tab is open? Or, do I need to configure my Safari differently so it can be functional with many tabs open?
Thanks for the guidance.

I tried this solution (using CP 5.5) but only to limited success. The TOC search seems to be able to pick up on some of the script but not all. I think it might be chronological, as in it will search within the first part of the script but not in latter parts, but I can't be sure. Are there any limitations to this solution, such as script (within the text box) length? Also, this may or may not be related, but the TOC rearranged and renamed all of my slides. For example, I have no duplicate slide labels and they are in order within the project, but my TOC looks like this:
Slide 2
Slide 2
Slide 3
Slide 4
Slide 4
Slide 21
Slide 40
Slide 70
Slide 16
etc...
As the project plays, the TOC status checkmarks jump around the list, appearing next to the corresponding slide (although in most cases mislabeled). Any guidance correcting these issues would be most helpful. Please let me know if you need any more information.

When I install firefox/addon/hide-tab-bar-with-one-tab, I loose the close "x" on all my tabs

PLAIN AND SIMPLE!!!!! I am starting to hate Firefox.

I'm sure the author will issue the final release at some point. It's their add-on and their call on the timing.

Yosemite hide tab bar

Can you hide the tab bar if there are multiple tabs? The command is grayed out.

Hi MikeAdamsCT,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
You can only hide the tab bar in Safari if you do not have multiple tabs open.
The article below mentions this for Safari 7 in Mavericks, but the function is the same in Safari 8 on Yosemite:
Safari 7 (Mavericks): Customize the Safari window
Hide or show Safari bars:
From the View menu, choose commands to hide or show the toolbar, Favorites bar, tab bar, or status bar. You can’t hide the tab bar when the window has multiple tabs.
Best Regards,
Jeremy

Any way to turn off Safari's full screen, auto hide tab bar mode?

FInally took the plunge and upgraded to iOS 8 on one of our i-devices. Really like the Panorama camera mode-- well done, Apple!
However, I was staggered to find that Safari now hides the tab bar as soon as you start scrolling down a web page! What's with that? I guess lots people wanted a full screen mode. OK, but for the rest of us, is there an option to turn off that mode and keep the tabs permanently visible?
With the new set up (now old to many of you), it takes 2 taps every time you want to close a tab or move to another one. That gets old fast! Plus, the animation each time is visually distracting and tiring and also gets tiresome. My browsing involves a lot of switching among tabs, so this is a real step backwards.
Hope there's a work around! Otherwise, we're going to have to leave our iPad Air at iOS 7!

Jim, appreciate the reply. Yes, I have submitted it as feedback to Apple!
I also stumbled upon the tap at top... The scroll upwards, though, rarely works for me! For example, here on this site one has to scroll down a long way, quickly. (It gets confusing, doesn't it? One slides down to scroll upwards!)
In browsing today, I realized that my habit is to come to the end of a story, then tap the close button on the tab bar, which takes me to the next tab and its story. Now, under iOS 8, I end up having to tap, watch the animation, then locate the button, and tap again. It doesn't sound like much, but it's a nuisance when one is moving from tab to tab reading news stories.
Of course, if I could wave a magic wand and fix just one thing about the iOS, it would be the incredibly lousy handling of contractions via auto-correct. It virtually never works unless one slows their typing down to the speed of molasses! I've used the feedback on that one, too, but iOS 8 in any of its incarnations has not fixed that!

(Chrome Like) Auto-Hide Tab bar in Safari Full Screen mode

Is there a plugin or some other way to auto hide the tab bar in Safari fullscreen mode like the way Chrome does?
This is the only thing stopping me from using Safari, it's way smoother than Chrome and feels much more native to Lion, but the fact the tab bar just keeps hanging there is annoying.
I tried the Cmd+I method mentioned in the community, but it only works when you're only opening one tab, if you open several tabs, the tab bar will show up again. It also comes back up once you exit Full Screen mode.
Thanks for your help !

Hello myzzzl, this is normal behavior in full screen mode, you can set the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Browser.fullscreen.autohide browser.fullscreen.autohide] in about:config to False, to change that, but if you do that tabs and location bar is enabled in full screen mode.
wait if another contributor/helper give you a code which I don't know.
thank you

Firefox extension that hides tab bar?

I have only been able to come across one that was for Firefox 2.0. I'd really like to be able to loose the tab bar as I have buftabs (Vimperator plugin).
Thanks in advance!

I haven't tested these three but they are the most promising I could find.

How to hide tab bar and application bar? In ID CS4.

Hello all!
Please help! Maybe someone have idea how to disable both?
It is only waste of space imo. Will not use them for sure...
Never opening more than 2-3 docs and than can easy use shortcut ctrl+`. Tabbed pages are good in web browser imho... Application bar is also just useless and (as menu itself) too fat. Most of those are in menu and have shortcuts. New features could be in menu as well.
Don't know why interface changed so much. And why this direction.
I know monitors are bigger nowdays etc - but are wider rather than higher.
Also - maybe new interface is great and ppl love it - but would be nice to have a choice. Some may prefere maximize workspace...
M.

Thanks for responses...
Yes - mac users can be really happy. What about PC? What was wrong with classical menu?
Are designers really works with several documents the same time? So need to use tabs? Well maybe. But those who works with just one or two don't need it really. (Maybe easy solution could be: one doc = no tab, more = tabbed, would be more natural imvho. As well as turning it off for PC users as well.)
So really no trick similar to 'noallcaps'? Notabsbar? Noapplicationbar?
"You can turn off the tabs in the preferences, interface section."
Yes, I can - but no more place coz of this... Window isn't maximized in fact - is floating, what also personally I don't like. Anyway - it is the same size and use the same space as before... If u make next one doc it is even smaller, to show bottom one. Maximizing it to full screen... hiding menu and docked 'control panel' (OK this docked menu can float, np - but where is menu?).
As for maximized letter size document in CS3 vs CS4 it's 131% to 129% on my lcd. Sure - it is not much maybe. But why it must be less? Why to change smthng what was good and aesthetic solution. And why not allow people to use it in classical way? Are Mac users ("to keep the hardcore Mac users happy") better than others? :(

How to unhide Tab bar in Safari

i am using the Safari Browser - Version 6.0.3 (8536.28.10), recently tab bar is not showing. Can any one help me to unhide the tab bar. When i checked view->Hide Tab Bar, also inactive. Looking help to unhide the tab bar. Thanks in advance

I suggest using Apple menu - Software Update (after backing up your computer) to get a newer Safari & OS version.
The tab bar is hidden by default unless there's more than one tab open - you can alter that with the following Terminal command... do it after quitting Safari.
defaults write -app Safari AlwaysShowTabBar -bool YES

How to stop the tab bar from automatically hiding itself?

ive only found how to stop the address bar from disappearing and everyone with the tab problem seems to have posted this over a week ago and still hasnt been fixed yet if noone has a fix im out and done with firefox they can suck a fat one
why add this feature! i can understand the address bar but not the tabs all you have to do to hide it was push the tab button again and its gone was that so fucking hard that you had ruin a perfectly fine browser

Hello,
In Firefox 23, as part of an effort to simplify the Firefox options set and facilitate future improvements to Firefox, the option to hide the tab bar was removed.
Fortunately, this can easily be resolved if you desire the keep tabs hidden. You can install "[https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/hide-tab-bar-with-one-tab/ Hide tab bar with one tab]", an extension hosted on Mozilla's add-ons site, which will restore the ability to hide the tab bar.
Thank you and I hope this helps!

Hide find bar a) add-on not working b) add to preferences please?

The "hide find bar" add-on doesn't seem to be working with Firefox 25.0.1. It seems to be compatible, and is in the add-on tool bar, so perhaps the find bar has been implemented differently in this version of Firefox? Anybody know if there's a fix, or another add-on that does the same job?
In any case, it would be great if this kind of thing was an option in Firefox's own preferences, to allow users to set the find bar to automatically hide after, e.g., 10 seconds of disuse.

Hello oldified,
the add-on you use is made of a volunteer not of a contributor of Mozilla. The owner of this add-on has to update this add on and not the contributor of Mozilla. If you need more information about the update of this add-on or something else please contact the person who made this add-on.
if you mean this Hide Tab bar please follow the next step:

I'd like to use Fox Tab exclusively and not have the tab bar at all. Is this possible?

This isn't so much a problem as a request for information. Like the topic says, I want Firefox to not show the tab bar at all, but still retain the tab function so that I can open tabs and view them with Fox Tab.

Fox Tab wasn't what I had the problem with, I was simply trying to provide background information that could possibly help someone answer me. fortunately, it worked. indirectly. edmeister, your tip led me to Fox Tab's options, where I found a check box next to "Hide tab bar."

Cannot disable "always show tab bar" in FF 28.0?

FF 19 had an option to deselect "always show tab bar" so that the tab bar is shown only when 2 or more tabs are open.
FF 28 seems to always show the tab bar. I don't see any way to disable that (unless 2 or more tabs are open).
How can I coerce FF 28 to not show tab bar unless 2 or more tabs are open?

That definitely "helps" insofar as you addressed my question dispositively.
However, I do not agree with the decision. How does removing one option substantially "simplify" things? How does forcing me to install an add-on "simplify" things for me, the customer?
FYI, I few add-ons as potential risks and a definite maintenance headache. A GUI add-on is probably more susceptible to compatibility issues.
If you want to "simplify" the GUI by removing one option from a menu (that isn't very "busy" in the first place; klunk!), at least provide an about:config option to control this behavior.
As for "facilitating future improvements", that is not my concern, a customer. Everything is SMOP.
I was in product development and maintenance for 35 years, and we always put the customer first. One of our cardinal rules was: do not remove a feature unless it is a security risk; and even then, we might leave an option to re-enable the feature "at your own risk".
Oh well, I'm probably p.i.s.s.ing into the wind. But thanks again for an accurate response.

My file names have disappeared in grid view. Thery have been replaced with a dark bar along the bottom of the previews. If I toggle using the command u it hide the bar but I still can't see the file name. In list view all the file names are OK.

The dark bar is caused by the option "Show metadata below image".
Check the settings for the metadata overlays in Grid view (basic and expanded) by clicking the little "badge" icon below the Browser and selecting "Edit". Is the filename still enabled in the list? And in a high enough position to have precedence for other metadata tags, if the space does not suffice to show all selected tags?

Is there a way to hide the tab bar on my I Pad 2 in IOS 5?

Anyone know of a way to hide the tab bar in an I Pad 2 using OS5? It wasn't there on the previous operating system.

I can only assume that you are talking about Safari and the answer is no. Safari now uses tabs. If you want a tab free browser, download iCab. You can use tabs or you also have the old Safari way of browsing open web pages at your disposal. Another rally nice feature is that you can swipe from one open web page to another open web page. It also has a ton of other features that Safari does not have.
