Website icon in address bar gone!

Where is it gone? and how do I re enable it?

I've just switched back to 13. There is no reason for Mozilla to change all this stuff on us. If it ain't broke, don't fix it!

When I type in a website in the address bar, it doesn't take me to the website I typed in. I hit enter and the green arrow also and it does nothing.

I have to go to google and type in the website from the address bar and go from there. Also the back and forward buttons do not work on any of the betas for FF4.

This type of behaviour can be caused by an incompatible add-on. Follow the procedure in the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article to identify the culprit. In Firefox 4 betas you can use the "Restart with Add-ons Disabled" option in the Help sub-menu to go into safe mode.
If you use AVG and have AVG Safe Search, start by disabling that extension as it has caused problems with the location bar for some people.

How to hide extra text and icons in address bar

I want to make the icons and extra text in the address bar go away since they do nothing for me and only take up space that I need to use to see the whole URL. Right now there's a green padlock icon on the left side with 1/4 of the space taken up by "Mozilla Foundation (US)" instead of the URL, other times it's a little globe or a little lego/car battery looking thing, or several icons in a row. There's a permanent star shaped thingy on the left and a down arrow that want to get rid of as well. I don't care at all what they mean, I just want them gone. I need to see as much of the URL in the URL bar as possible, not a bunch of icons and extra non-URL text. The address bar should be for addresses, and that's how I want my browser to function. I don't care one single bit what those icons or extra text are for, so please don't try to advocate for their staying. I've made up my mind 100% that I want them gone. Can I make them go away, yes or no?

I use code to hide the URL in case of a EV certificate and only show it on hover.
You still see the green padlock.
That gives me extra space on the location bar

No icon in address bar

Safari used to show the icon for my web site in its address bar, but doesn't any more. There has been no change to the favicon.ico file, but our site is on a new server with possibly slightly different configuration. Also, more than one version of Mac OS X (and therefore probably Safari) has gone by since I last recall seeing the icon in the address bar.
If I trash the ~/Library/Safari/Icons folder, Safari re-fetches favicon.ico from the server, but still does not display it. The site in question is www.animalhead.com. Have the criteria that Safari uses for the "correctness" of an icon changed?
Any help would be much appreciated,

I keep answering my own questions on Apple forums. Does this make me eligible for any special awards, like "self-healing"?
After reading some stuff about icons, I had added the following line to the main configuration file (httpd.conf) of my Apache2 server, several months ago:
AddType image/x-icon .ico
When I comment out this line and restart the server, my little favicon shows up just fine in Safari.
Wikipedia suggests using "image/vnd.microsoft.icon" instead of "image/x-icon", but I can't bring myself to try anything with the m-word in it just now. Maybe I'll try it in the future...

Change firefox icon in address bar

I'm attempting to customize firefox to look like IE, don't ask why, trust me I don't want to. But anyway, I downloaded FoxE9, that kinda customizes firefox to look like ie9, which I think its the closest I'm gonna get.
Only problem Im running across is the firefox icon that is in the address bar on the left side, I think its called a favicon?
Is there any way to change or remove it? Also this is firefox portable version 26.

That isn't a correct action for the URL bar.
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.

Firefox doesn't redirect us to the website when we type the name of the website in the address bar

Before when I typed orkut in the address bar of Firefox 3.6 and press enter, it automatically goes to that site by adding www & .com . But now when I type it in the address bar, it takes me to Google search results for orkut and then from there I have to click on the website. Can anyone help me solve this problem? This happedned after I deleted my Default Profile of my Firefox.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH AND MAY GOD BLESS YOU! THAT SOLVED MY PROBLEM! :D

Address Bar Gone???

Dear Users, my address bar disappeared so I can't enter a URL. What do I do?

Hi
Drag the circled item to the toolbar (position it towards the right side). Then, select "done".
While you're at it, you can drag any other icon to the left side of the toolbar. Some users like to keep the toolbar simple (few icons). Others like me - the "sky's the limit".

"customize address bar" gone from View

The customize address bar selection under view is completely gone. I have removed com.apple.safari.plist and restarted the computer with no luck. Any ideas how I get it back. I have downloaded the latest updates if that makes any difference. Thanks, Lee Anne

Hi Lee Anne
Which version of Safari are you using (Safari Menu>About Safari). If it is 2.0.4 (419.3), you can install a fresh copy of the application following these directions:
Thanks to Andy Ball in this forum, a simple method now exists for reinstalling Safari.
First, go back to your regular user account. Open Safari and go to this site to obtain a zip file of Safari. On this site page, select "free", then on the following page you'll need to wait about 30 seconds for the target site options to appear. Select one of them, fill in the "alpha/numeric prompt", and the file will download.
Once the download is completed, quit Safari. After the new Safari folder is mounted on your HD, go to the Finder and move the Safari.app to your Applications folder, selecting "replace" to overwrite the existing Safari folder.
Go to the Utilities folder>Disk Utility and "repair permissions".
Restart Safari.

How to getred plug in icon in address bar

Can not get javascript plugin in firefox. Instructions say , select options- content tab-mark 'enable javascrit check box' no such box appears under my content tab. A little further down on the same page it says 'javascript enabled in your browser'.
Have not got red plug in icon in my address bar, how do I get it?. this would be the simplest way for me to enable/disable javascript.
Main reason is that I can not enlarge photos in eBay.

Hello,
In Firefox 23, as part of an effort to simplify the Firefox options set and protect users from unintentially damaging their Firefox, the option to toggle JavaScript was removed from the Firefox Options window.
However, the option to toggle JavaScript was not removed from Firefox entirely. You can still access it from about:config or by installing an add-on.
'''about:config'''
# In the address bar, type "about:config" (with no quotes), and press Enter.
# Click "I'll be careful, I promise"
# In the search bar, search for "javascript.enabled" (with no quotes).
# Right click the result named "javascript.enabled" and click "Toggle". JavaScript is now enabled.
To Re-disable JavaScript, repeat these steps.
'''Add-ons'''
You can alternatively install an add-on that lets you toggle JavaScript on the fly, such as
*[https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/noscript/ No-Script] (to disable JavaScript on a per page basis, as required)
*[https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/quickjava/ QuickJava] (to easily disable and enable JavaScript, automatic loading of images, and other content)
*[https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/settingsanity/ SettingSanity] (adds back removed options for JavaScript, Advanced JavaScript Settings, loading images, and showing the Tab Bar)
Thank you and I hope this helps!

Tabs and address bar gone in fullscreen

I can't access my tabs or address bar in fullscreen on macbookpro. It only started doing this today

What happens if you hover the mouse to the top?
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/how-to-use-full-screen
Does it has effect if you toggle the browser.fullscreen.autohide to false on the about:config page?
You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar.
You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.
