What happened to my URL bar in Safari?

How do I get back my URL bar? I allowed auto updates today and found out after the update that Safari now bundles search and url in one bar. Hate it. Can I revert to the old preference?

You can get the URL bar back from the menu , View, Show Toolbar. (at least in Safari 5.1.7)

  • Search Google from the URL bar in safari not working, Help...

    Hi to everyone,
    im stuck here trying to find out why i can't search more in the url bar in safari. Just happened few weeks ago and i most use bing or yahoo.
    I did try to delete cache and plist etc, everything i read in the net but still not working. I have mac pro 2011, and I'm not sure but i think this happened after i open a second account for my girlfriend in my mac, so she can have her own account. I check and in the other account happen the same...some ideas?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • 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.

  • What happened to the downloads tab in safari - yosemite?

    Cant seem to find the downloads tab that used to be in the upper right hand corner near the link bar in os x yosemite?

    One possibility is that there are no files in the Downloads, or that the Safari list has been cleared.  What happens if you download something - does the tab appear?
    Also, in the View menu there is a command "Show Downloads" you might try.

  • What happened to the Activity window in Safari?

    there is no more Activity window in Safari.  What happened and how can I geet it back?

    In Safari 6 in preferences you navigate to the advanced menu and click on the "Show develop menu in menu bar" and you should be able to see much of what is in the page. It certainly is not what we are used to and there are certainly a number of strange changes i am not sure developers have tested on the average user before implementing.

  • What happened to my menu bar? It's gone.

    Firefox shows up on my dock and when I open it there is no menu bar or tool bar. What happened to them? Where are they?

    Yes, they made it able to start a "private Window"...
    But does it WORK?
    I noticed that in v20, Firefox send cookies that were set before the "private Window" was opened.
    This means NO PRIVACY !!!
    A site you visit in your "New Private Window" will ID you by the cookies it has set in the past.
    Privacy is gone... bye bye ...
    Of course one can manually delete the cookies for a certain domain.... but why would i want to go through all this work...
    I hope it's fixed.
    And if it's not fixed.. it will be bye bye Firefox ... terrible choice.

  • What to type in url bar to access servers?

    I don't know if I'm asking this right because my searches result in no help. I'm connected to my work via VPN. I remember that there is someway to type something in the url bar to access the servers. Something like \\servername\sharename. I don't know the syntax though. Can anyone help? Thanks

    Deanna, are you trying to map a sharename of a server from your windows machine? If so you can simply connect to the share through windows:
    Start>run then type \\Server_IP\Sharename
    or by server dns name if you know it.
    Start>run then type \\ServerDNS_mame\Sharename
    or you can do it from command line:
    e.g
    c:\net use * \\server_ip\sharename

  • How do I enable some scripts to run in some programs/websites and what happened to the status bar of my Mozilla Firefox 4?

    Well, first of all, I was tying to create a web-based computer game in Notepad in H.T.M.L., C++, and JavaScript codes. But when I tried to open the completed product, Firefox only came up with a blank page. What do I do with this? And also, I unwittingly removed the "Status Bar" on the bottom side of my browser(the one that always says "Transferring data from/to..."), and when I tried to bring it back up, I couldn't because I don't know how, since I'm new to Mozilla Firefox 4. If you could help me with these problems, Then I would greatly appreciate it.

    You can install the Status-4-Evar extension to regain some functionality from previous Firefox versions that was lost with the removal of the Status bar.
    Open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout" after you have installed the Status-4-Evar extension and drag the items (Status Text, Progress Meter, Download Status) upon the Add-ons Bar (View > Toolbars > [X] Add-on Bar)<br />
    Also check the Options of Status-4-Evar in Firefox (or Tools) > Add-ons

  • What happened to the scroll bar in version 11?

    I have thousands of songs but besides that I like to listen to an audio bible. I use to be able to scroll up and down very quickly to find what I wanted but now I have to scroll using mouse wheel which is tiresome and ridiculous.Am I just not getting something or was a simple scroll function overlooked?

    Try this maybe it solves your question:
    Try this to bring back the "old" iTunes view
    Ctrl + / brings back the status bar
    Ctrl + s brings back the Side Bar
    Ctrl + B brings the Menu Bar back.
    Other handy shortcut is Ctrl + Shift + B it will bring back the column browser.
    All these keys are under the View menu option

  • What happened to the mailto function in Safari 6?

    Here's my code:
    <A HREF="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a>
    When you click on the link, rather than the user being directed to a new session in their email app with the email address in the "to" field, this just opens up a new page in Safari, which of course doesn't help anybody.
    I've poked around the internet and brought this up in different forums and have yet to come up with a bottom line.
    I've never had this problem before prior to installing Mountain Lion and being introduced to Safari 6. What do I have to do with my code to make it compatible with Safari 6?

    BTW: This is the page that inspired all of this mess: http://newhopeforyou.com/small_group_display.php?class_id=31
    I don't know what the problem could be, but I can trace it back to the installation of Mountain Lion and Safari 6. Both great pieces of technology, but this email thing is something I've got to figure out!

  • What happened to the scroll bars?

    Apple has gone and made yet another infuriating change to one of their crucial applications, i.e., Finder. They have changed it so that you do not see the scroll bar at the right edge except when you first open the window or move the right edge, or scroll with the mouse. Then and only then do you even see the scroll bar. The did the same thing with the Preview, and here it is perfectly obvious that this is a really dumb idea. You have a vertical colum of icons on the left, and a picture on the right. If you set your mouse scrolling to work well for one, it does not work at all well for the other. This is a fact. Reliance on the scroll wheel just doesn't work. They perhaps thought that everyone should be using their mice with touch sensitive surface. Perhaps there isn't a problem in that case, but it isn't an excuse, because not everyon likes the Apple mice. I don't like them at all. One of them has sharp edges, and there is something else wrong with the other one. I use only generic mice, and see no reason not to. AND, I am incensed at them once again for doing something that is just plain idiotic. I reiterate: it is just plain idiotic for them to have done this, and this is exactly the sort of thing that Apple does as a matter of recourse. They have got the idea in their collective mind that their purpose in life is to dictate to everyone else how to interact with a computer. It is an extraordinary degree of hubris, far beyond what I can tolerate. APPLE, PUT THE DAMNED SCROLL BARS BACK, YOU HORSE'S A$$ES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • What happened to the Scroll Bars in Adobe Reader 11.0.09

    The help file (such as it is) says "Use the vertical scroll bars to move up and down the pages or the horizontal scroll bars to move across the page." BUT THERE AREN'T ANY SCROLL BARS.  I have gone all through the menus and cannot find any way to display the scroll bars.  They always used to be there when the page extended beyond the screen, but now they are gone.  The alternative of trying to use the hand tool to grab and drag a page is awkward at best.
