How do I get google search in my Safari address bar?

I have a MacBook Pro with Lion 10.7.  Apple store just reloaded the 10.7.  Everything works except that the google search is no longer in the Safari address bar.  How to I get that back?  Thanks.

Safari preferences, General icon, select preferred search engine from dropdown menu. Or do you mean the Search Field? If so, it's not used anymore. Use the URL field to search.

  • How Do I Change Google Search Results in Safari 3.1?

    I travel a lot. Currently I'm in India. When I was using Safari 3.0, the Google Search Bar search results were always from google.com. Now that I've upgraded to 3.1, the search results are from google.co.in.
    How do I get the search bar to give me .com results again?

    Unless they've changed it in the past year, the auto-complete on Inquisitor was a deal-breaker. It kept on completing words that I didn't want to type.
    Inquisitor has changed a lot over the past year. I used to use AcidSearch. This has it beat hands down.
    Unless directed otherwise, I believe Google adapts the search function to your location based on the IP. Hence, the "Indian search".
    Back to Inquisitor, one picture is worth a thousand words.

  • How do I get Google search bar results to open in a new tab instead of the current tab?

    When I use the Google search box, I would like the search results to open in a new tab instead of the current tab.

    It turns out there is an about:config setting just for this purpose. Toggle browser.search.openintab to 'true', and all is well.

  • How do I change Default search engine in the address bar, not the search window on the top right or by using about:config, doesn't work. Worked fine until this FF 8.0 update, now defaults to Yahoo 7. About to throw it in and use Chrome.

    When Firefox 8.0 installed it has automatically changed my address bar default search engine to Yahoo7 which is crap. I can not change this back. So when I start FF it opens to my google home page, when I type a subject and search the results are displayed in a Yahoo 7 results page, not google. I am not talking about my default home page or the search bar to the top right. This is still google.
    The settings in about:config do nothing.
    This was fine until FF 8.0.

    Thanks dmcritchie,
    Nice effort but that answers a different question about fixing the add-on Yahoo toolbar.
    Pernich and I want to know; If you type search criteria directly into the address bar and hit enter, how to change that search engine from Yahoo to Google.
    Otherwise I too will go back to using Google Chrome, even though I really like FF8.0
    please help

  • Won't Google search single word in address bar

    Whenever I type in more than one word in the address bar it does a Google search, but whenever I type in a single word it takes me to http://domainnotfound.optimum.net with an error.
    I've tried the following fixes that I found on this forum and nothing has worked:
    https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/963366?esab=a&s=address+bar+one+word+doesn%27t+work&r=4&as=s
    https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/968086?esab=a&s=address+bar+one+word+doesn%27t+work&r=7&as=s
    and the one where you swtich off some setting in a different tab.
    Can someone please help? It's super frustrating

    Switching search engines
    The name of the active search engine is listed in the Search bar and is identified by the small icon. In the following example, the active search engine is Google. To change the active search engine, click the down arrow next to the search engine's icon, and select a new search engine.

    A new tab opens by default as a blank tab (about:blank).
    If that isn't the case then an extension has changed that behavior.
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
    You can middle-click or hold down Ctrl and left-click the Home button on the Navigation toolbar to open the Home page in a new tab.
    You can look at this extension to set which page to open in a new tab:

  • How do I get Google back as my preferred search engine?

    How do I get Google back as my preferred search engine after this morning's "update" of OS X? Having spent a lot of time setting up a computer to work seamlessly the way I want in every respect, I really resent my time being wasted by "helpful" software engineers. I have tried changing it in the Firefox configuration, which no longer accepts anything other than Yahoo as either a home page or a search engine, all to no avail. The only thing has been changed since everything was working sweetly is the update of OS X a few hours ago.

    What OS X update did you perform?
    To change your default search engine in Safari: Safari menu > Preferences > General > Default search engine.
    To change it with Firefox, click the icon at the left of the search field and choose one from the dropdown menu. If that does not work you may have to ask in a Mozilla support site.

  • How do I get Google on Safari to search UK sites only?

    How do I get Google to search UK sites only> If not is Firefox better than Safari?

    Hi
    The best way to refine your searches is to start with Google's UK site. Is your Safari search window set to Google.com or Google.co.uk?
    I use Inquisitor 3 to modify my search function. Once installed, its preference file is part of Safari Preferences. Open Safari Preferences and select the "Search" panel (if it doesn't appear, look for the >> at the end of the panels, click on that and you'll see "Search". In that panel you can modify your search needs based on a number of criteria, including making Google.co.uk your preferred search engine.

  • In version 3.x.x I used to be able to type search terms into the address bar and the page would load, similar to Google's "Feeling Lucky" button. Now it just brings up a Google search for the terms I typed in. How can I get this time saving feature back?

    The change between Firefox 3.6.* and Firefox 4 is how location bar search works. In Firefox 3.6 it uses Google "Browse by name" search. With the browse by name search, it performs a Google search and if there is a clear match it will take you to the site, otherwise it shows the Google search result. With Firefox 4 it just performs a Google search if you type something which is not recognised as a URL.
    To get the Firefox 3.6 behaviour on Firefox 4 you need to change a hidden preference.
    # Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press enter
    # Accept the warning message that appears, you will be taken to a list of preferences
    # Locate the preference '''keyword.URL''', double-click on it and change its value to the link shown below

    If you prefer, you can also do this by installing the Browse by Name extension - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/browse-by-name
