Lost Address Bar

I have lost the Web Address Bar in Safari. How do I get it back?
There used to be a Web Address Bar and beside that a Google Search Bar. All that remains is a long Google Search Bar. It is also missing from Default Toolbar in Customize Toolbar. This is what my Customize Toolbar page looks like.....
And this is my Toolbar....
The highlighted blue bar above is the Google Search Bar
Can anyone help,
Thanks

Now its just one. You can't separate it.

Lost address bar on safari

I have lost the address bar on Safari. Any help getting it back?

Hi mbert and Welcome to Apple Discussions ...
Are you talking about the Address Book not being bookmarked? If so, read on:
If your address book isn’t bookmarked
If you don’t see your address book listed as a collection in your bookmarks library, or the Address Book Collection doesn’t contain any websites, the information here may help.
Here are some things to try:
■
Choose Safari > Preferences and click the Bookmarks tab. Make sure that Include Address Book is checked. You can add the address book to the bookmarks bar, menu, and/or library (as a collection).
■
In your address book, check to see if any of your contacts have websites listed in the “home page” field. If no websites are listed, there are no home pages to include as bookmarks.

Lost address bar, bookmarks

My 80-year-old father, who lives 250 miles from me, called today to tell me that Safari "went crazy" and he had to reboot. When he restarted, all his bookmarks were gone. More seriously, his address bar is gone.
The View menu has a command, "Hide address bar." When he chooses it, it is still gone and it says "Show address bar." When he chooses it, it is still gone. He tried to restore it using the "Customize address bar" command, but the address bar is still gone.
He is running OS X 10.4 on an iMac G5. I suggested he upgrade to 10.4.4, which he did but it did not solve the problem. He tried to install Safari 2.01 for OSX 10.4.4, but it returned an error that it could only be installed on 10.4.4, which is what he was running.
I told him to find his system DVD and reinstall Safari. But for the future, what could cause the disappearance of the address bar? What could cause the loss of bookmarks (which he says he has suffered before)? If bookmarks are lost, can they be restored?
Thanks for any help,
Randal

Let me get this straight . . . your 80-year old father is doing system upgrades and reinstalls? He sounds like one sharp character!
I have no idea how these things got lost, but the bookmarks can be saved and restored. They're at Library/safari/bookmarks.plist. If he has a subscription to dot Mac, he can use the Backup program to back up to an Apple server (called his iDisk), or to DVD, CD, or an external drive.
I think he could also load a "demonstration" version of Backup that would let him backup to CD or DVD, for free, from the dot Mac site at http://www.apple.com/dotmac/
Backup files are compressed. I've not tried it, but I'd guess he could also copy the file to another file and/or CD or DVD.

Lost address bar- HELP!

My mouse went crazy making it right click everything. Anyhow, I was trying to get it to get it back to normal and clicking multiple times. Doing that I accidently (somehow) got rid of my url (where the http://www.mac.com goes) bar! Thankfully, I was in safari and at the apple website when I lost the url bar so I could direct myself to the Support>DIscussions. Does anyone know how to get the url bar back? I would very much appreciate it if someone could tell me!
Also, if anyone knows how to keep your mouse from right-clicking everything let me know!

Look in the menu bar under view (I think that's the English translation I work with the Dutch version of Safari, anyway it's left of history) and see if the address bar is still there and click it. That should do it.

Lost address bar/area

i've lost my address bar and don't know where to find it.
i've confirmed that it is there in firefox and internet explorer but not safari.
i upgraded to safari 3.2.3 but still no address bar.
i've gone thru all of the preferences and even reset safari but no luck.
any help is appreciated.
thanks,

I have this problem and have tried both solutions listed but it does not appear.
When I open the Customize the address and Google boxes appear, but when closing the Customize window they disappear again.
I have tried resetting Safari and no change.
I have tried closing the window without the address box, selecting an exising window with the box and starting a new window but the new window appears without the address or google box.

Lost Address Bar & Google Bar

I'm not sure how but I have made my www. address bar and google search bar disappear. Anyone know how I might get it back? Thanks.

Have you tried the settings in the View menu of Safari?

How do I get back my small icon for one click completion of my name and address etc. I lost it when I got back my web address bar

I was getting frustrated that I had no address bar to put in an address and go straight to the page, but in restoring that I have lost my small icon which I clicked on when I wanted to complete all my personal data on the many sites such as the council, shopping sites etc. It used to fill in my name, address, telephone number, email address, etc. It was a small square firefox icon. I am using a Toshiba Laptop, with Windows Vista operating system

"small pencil" - Is this the '''exact''' extension you have installed? 
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/autofill-forms/
I don't know where you are getting '''Ctrl + Q''' from - that extension uses '''''Alt + J''''' to trigger the 'autofill' feature when the cursor is in the first form field.
'''FillForms''' extension doesn't seem to have a "small pencil" associated with it. 
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/fillforms/ 
But it does use '''Ctrl + Q''' till web forms. 
''Sorry can't help you with that extension, the 'support' page is written in a SE Asian language which is undecipherable to me. http://www.symental.com/bbs/

I tried editing my first post but couldn't get there...
If you can open Safari go to the top of your screen, click Safari / Preferences then select the General stab. You can type in the web address for your Home page there.

When in Safari, I try to text the link in the address bar to a contact through the link at th ebottom of safari and it never goes to th econtact and the message is lost. Any fix here or is it a bug in 7.0.2?

Re Create the task:
1. Open Safari
2. Go to the desired website/address
3. Click the send icon at the bottom (Square with arrow pointed up)
4. Click Message
5. Add contact in "To:" line
6. Hit send
It locks up and lags here on me and the message never shows up at the contacts phone/imessage/etc.

Hi,
/Users/sarahschadek/Desktop/Safari.app/Contents/MacOS/Safari
Move the Safari app from the Desktop to the Applications folder.
Restart your Mac.
That's why you see this:
When I try to do the updates my computer says it has ready it goes through like it is downloading them then at the end it says some of the files could not be saved to "/" files.
After your restart your Mac, click the Apple  menu (top left in your screen) then click: Software Update ...

I have lost my address bar, how do i get it back

i have lost my address bar, how do i get it back

Which address bar are you reffering to?
Safari ??

Why Have I lost the address bar, back/forward buttons etc, and how do I get them back or should i use internet explorer?

After updating Fire fox I seem to have lost the address bar,back/forward buttons and all my little apps. How do I get it all back and stop it from happening again?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Today 21/06/10

To get the Menu bar I followed the excellent advice - I had to press the Alt key and V to get the chance to pick toolbars from the drop down menu. I just right-clicked on the blank page and hit Alt-V.
Thanks for the tip.

I have lost my safari internet address bar how do I re-install it

I have lost my Safari internet address bar {the area I put an address into) how do I reinstal this please

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
To get back the URL bar, open Safari and go to View menu (in the menu bar) > Customize Toolbar. Then, drag the URL bar to the Safari toolbar.

Lost my dashboard with all icons, cannot access bookmqarks, address bar, etc.

I selected a persona. i tried to minimize the dashboard to see the persona. I lost the dashboard with all the icons and address bar. how to restore it.

That is not called the "dashboard". Each '''toolbar''' can be shown separately, as shown here. Menu Bar, Navigation Toolbarbar, and Bookmarks Toolbar 
https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Menu+bar+is+missing
Firefox 4.0 versions have a new "Firefox button" which allows to user to hide the Menu Bar, and if that is showing you can have the Menu Bar appear temporarily by hitting the '''Alt''' key. Then you can click on the '''View''' menu item and open Toolbars.
If that doesn't solve your issue, try the Firefox SafeMode - you may have an addon that is causing your problem.
