Safari: Display complete URL in search/URL Bar

OS/X 10.10.1
Safari 8.0
How do I make Safari always display the complete URL in the search bar and not just the abbreviated domain name?
thanks,
bill plunkett

Safari > Preferences > Advanced > Smart Search Field:
Checkmark the box beside "Show full website address".

Keep getting "invalid url" when searching title bar and built in google search.

When I use the title bar, or the home page to search using google, i get "invalid url". If I manually type in www.yahoo.com, or any other site, everything works fine. Usually if I restart the computer, everything is normal again. This does no happen all the time, but once it starts, it wont go away. I even restarted in safe mode and then disabled all add ons and still nothing.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

You can reset the browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone pref via the right-click context menu to the default on the about:config page and close and restart Firefox to restore the about:home page to its default.
* Open the about:config page via the location bar
* Type in the Filter bar: mstone
* Right-click the browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone line and select: Reset
* Close and restart Firefox

I suddenly lost search/url bar in Safari (Yosemite). How do I get it back?

I don;t know what happened. I was adding items to Favorites and suddenly realize my address/search bar had disappeared. I can only access previously bookmarked pages now as there is no way to type in a new URL or search???

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

Major bug in Safari 6: previous domain persists in URL bar when clicking a link

I've noticed an extremely weird and significant bug in Safari 6 / Mountain Lion:
When I'm navigating through a site, sometimes when clicking a link, Safari tries to open the corresponding URL on a previously visited site's domain instead of the current site.
For example:
First, I'm surfing on apple.com. Then, I navigate to another site, say estibot.com. On estibot.com, I click on a link that should take me to:
http://www.estibot.com/tools.html
Instead, safari takes me to http://www.apple.com/tools.html, which of course produces a 'not found' error. Nothing wrong with the link; this is purely Safari's doing.
This happens often, and apparently can happen with any site.
In other words, the domain name of a previously visited site persists in the URL, and the page that I'm trying to navigate to is added to the domain of the PREVIOUS site, not the actual site I'm using.
This is a major bug and is often rendering Safari useless for my workflow. How could a bug like this end up in the finished product?
Cheers

Having the same problem. It is randomly consistent, i.e. some links consistently get redirected to a specific domain. For example, I am experiencing this issue when using Basecamp and links being misdirected to a specific client's website. However, the criteria for why some links redirect and some do not appears random. This issue does not occur in Firefox. This leads me to believe that it is not a DNS issue. May be a Safari/DNS pair issue or solely a Safari issue. We do use an internal DNS (OS X Server) for browsing internal development wbsites which then rolls over to a public DNS. Again, this problem has never occured in Firefox and consistently occurs in Safari.
Safari Version 6.0 (7536.25)
Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4
On a side note...
Safari's strong-handed rewriting in the address bar as you type is crazy anoying. Or should I say "too helpful?" It seems to break the first rule of usuability: don't change the interface while the user is interacting with it.
And the unified address/search is rediculously annoying for developers who use non-complient top level domains for internal development (such as .dev)
And the new inspector seems like a huge step backwards in usuability. (debatable considering I'm probably not as advanced as some developers.)

I just updated my iPhone 6 to IOS 8.3. My safari will not let me search anything. If I type in a website URL, the Go button is greyed out. If I type in something to search on google, I press Go and nothing happens. Does anyone know how to fix this?

I have cleared history, reset my phone, tried using wifi and mobile data.

I have this problem too and have tried all suggestions to fix, with no luck.
Safari did work for a short time by switching to Private, but stopped working soon after

What is the Behavior.Navigation URL for creating navigation bar links for search scopes for security group and distribution groups?

...the search scope is used to subset the SGs and DGs. The search scope itself shows expected results. The search scope filter used is: /Group[Type='Security' or Type='MailEnabledSecurity'][(Domain = 'DomainX') or (Domain = 'DomainY')]
Tried the following, with the GUID being the resource ID from the search scope for security groups:
~/identitymanagement/aspx/customized/CustomizedObjects.aspx?type=Group&searchtype=e8ed98b6-e299-4b8d-bfe5-e4b2adf1cd60
~/IdentityManagement/aspx/groups/Groups.aspx?type=Group&searchtype=e8ed98b6-e299-4b8d-bfe5-e4b2adf1cd60
Thanks

are you talking about redirect URL in search scope ? FIM will automatically add the searchtype querystring
for custom groups search scope you can use :
~/IdentityManagement/aspx/groups/AllGroups.aspx
and configure you search scope to use the same UsageKeywords as for the security groups
and restart your IIS server using the command "IISRESET"
in your case if you want to create navigation bar link to your group-type search scope use may use this format:
http://{your fim server}/IdentityManagement/aspx/groups/AllGroups.aspx?searchtype={your searchscope guid}&content=%2a
ex : http://fimserver/IdentityManagement/aspx/groups/AllGroups.aspx?searchtype=47e0a973-0ab4-46f5-815f-f5028c1af58e&content=%2a

In recent weeks, when I open a new tab, the bars to input a URL or search has disappeared. How can I restore this option so I don't have to use other browsers?

I used to be able to type in a URL or search when opening a new tab. Now I only get the "panes" that show most recently opened tabs. I have been having to go to alternative browsers to go to websites not in my top 9 or to open new windows, which is a pain.

Hello,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. 
'''Note''': ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

Can not copy a URL from the address bar/line

Why is it proving so difficult for me to copy a URL from the address bar using Safari? When I click on the link I want to copy, it does not highlight. I have used Command L and Command C, and that works but there has to be a simpler way. I also read that if I click the address bar once, then press the control key and click on it again that a menu would appear with cut, paste, copy. That does happen, but all options are greyed out, and not selectable. Another google search resulted in someone saying there was a button or arrow to click on and that this tool would copy the URL.
The URL I am copying is very long, longer that the address bar window
What Gives Here?

Click the icon (favicon) to the left of the URL.
That will select the entire URL.
Command C will copy the URL.

Why is it that now, when I click on a link for a website I've saved, it does NOT show the URL in the address bar? I can't drag it to an email to share the link.

Why is it that in these newer versions of Firefox (I have 21.0), when I open a link that I've saved, it does NOT display the URL in the address bar any more?
I can't drag and drop the link into an email, and I can't see the actual web address I'm connected to for reference OR for security purposes. Why was this changed?
It becomes necessary to reveal the properties of the URL link I've saved, using the Windows "Properties", then copying and pasting the URL into the Firefox address bar, before I can do anything with it.

No changes have been made and no problem with extensions has interfered with the URL appearing in Firefox before. Only with the last few new versions of Firefox has this cropped up. Also, the link opens correctly - it just doesn't display the URL in the address bar, instead it just reads (in gray) "Search or enter address." How could another extension interfere if Firefox is the sole program associated with .htm, .html files?

DON'T HAVE A HELP TAB IN MY MENU BUTTON. CANT EVEN COPY A URL IN MY ADDRESS BAR OR REFRESH IT ?

how on earth can you help people when all you do is direct them to another page to click on something that doesn't help. this new version is awful . i cannot even put a url address in my address bar, nor can i refresh the address bar as it won't highlight at all. i keep going to all sorts of help pages and they are no help at all. i have used firefox for years and never had so much trouble with anything. the worse thing is your support and not being able to talk to any about anything. as it is i have to go all over just to find maybe an answer to this.i am using a background theme that i used before the new updated version and had no problems with it. if your themes are not compatible then why have them ??? the address bar problem is not present if i get rid of the theme and use the plain boring theme that you have . all i want to know is why this issue is happening with the theme i am using. and if possible it would be nice to get an answer in my email so i don't have to click on a dozen help pages trying to find it . thank you ..
edit by a moderator: if you want to be able to discuss the issue with someone, don't do it in a shouting format (all uppercase), as this is considered rude on the internet - therefore i have converted your text into normal characters. in addition i have removed your address from public display since you will be notified per mail once somebody replies to the thread anyway.

'''What is your support question?''' This? CANT EVEN COPY A URL IN MY ADDRESS BAR OR REFRESH IT ?
A number of other users have mentioned a similar problem. 
Chances are that you have an add-on installed that isn't completely compatible with Firefox 29. '''You''' need to figure out the culprit and disable it until an update for that add-on is available.
If so, '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings, disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
*In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
*In previous Firefox versions, click on the Firefox button at the top left of the Firefox window and click on ''Help'' (or click on ''Help'' in the Menu bar, if you don't have a Firefox button) then click on ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode". 
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''

SharePoint 2013 public facing site - need to mask url in search results

Hi, we have sp2013 public facing site. Can we mask the display url in search results? Actually we are pointing two urls(ex: A & B) to same web application. Search results are already crawled based on A URL, so when people search in browsing 'B'
URL search results is giving URL with 'A' site. Please let me know if anyone have possible solution.
Can we have more than one url for internet zone in AAM? i browsed in blogs most of them say it is not possible.
Thanks,

How can I see the entire url in the address bar in Mountain Lion including the http or https?

I recently updated Safari and now when the url of the site I am visiting shows up in the adress bar...it is minus the http or https so I am unaware fo whether the site is secure or not. How can I enable Safari to show me the entire url each and everytime I visit a webpage? Like before??

Users can revert to the old behavior by setting '''browser.urlbar.trimURLs''' to '''false''' in '''about:config'''. 
 
 
To change this preference: 
 
type about:config in the Location/URL bar and press Enter. 
if you see a warning, accept (promise to be careful) 
Filter: browser.urlbar.trimURLs 
in lower panel, double-click that item to toggle value to false
