Why the address bar disappeared?

The address bar disappeared in Safari's web brower. I goto "view", chose either "show address bar" or "hide address bar", but couldn't solve the problem. Would any one know how to get the bar appear? Thank you!

I came across the same problem where I can't do anything in "Customize Address bar" option window.
If "Customize Address Bar" doesn't change anything, it's likely you have the whole toolbar hidden, such that customizing it won't make any visible difference.
Try this: View > Show Toolbar

The address bar disappeared from all web pages and I can't type in a webpage. I don't know how to get it back. Can someone PLEASE help me get it back? Thanks!!!

Hi Jordyn. I'm assuming you're using Safari. Open it. On the top bar click on View > Customize Toolbar. You should see the address bar there and simply drag it where you want to place it in Safari. Hope this helps.

How can I stop the address bar from auto hiding

I dislike having the address bar disappear all the time. How can I prevent this.

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: Command+Shift+F).

If you are in full screen mode then hover the mouse to the top of the screen to make the Navigation Toolbar and Tab bar appear.<br>Click the Maximize button (top right corner of the Navigation Toolbar) to leave full screen mode or right-click empty space on a toolbar and choose "Exit Full Screen Mode" or press the F11 key.

I accidentally clicked something that made everything pertaining to the address bar disappear. (the home button, the refresh button, and the back arrows. also the ability to click on the folders like "file", or "edit") How do I get that back?

You should update Firefox to the latest version via "Help > Check for Updates"

When I am typing in the address bar, the cursor disappears after 15 or so characters and I have to reclick on the bar to continue typing.. why?

Sometimes it seems like it is prompted by some type of reload as the cursor turns into the blue circle before disappearing. I am not hitting any strange keys or doing anything with the mouse.

The one that indicates where you're typing (|). as you can see in the attached pic, i was trying to type "andrewager.com" in the address bar, but it jumped down to the search box and the e went in to the search box.

Text labels on buttons have disappeared, and the tabs have moved ABOVE the address bar. Why?

Last night I updated to Firefox 29.0.1. Now, I don't mind change - and I don't mind redesigns - but I HATE it when options are removed. I want text labels on my buttons (the "Home" button for example"). In the previous version of Firefox you could right-click in the grey space at the top, and select "customise". From there, you could drag and drop which things you wanted to appear in your toolbar or not - and there was a tickbox to selext if you wanted text labels to appear underneath them or not. Now as hard as I look, I can't find this option. It looks like you're now forcing people to ONLY use icons. I hate that. My brain processes the word "Home" a lot faster than it recognises a little picture of a house. You need to understand that people work in different ways - and just because the Firefox developers might not personally use the text labels, that doesn't mean that no-one does!
What is the point in taking away the option? None at all. Please re-introduce the option. In the meantime, I will revert to the previous version of Firefox.
Additionally, I see that the tabs have now moved on top of the address bar. Again - WHY? I like them below. Why do you feel the need to make design changes - and then not give people the option to customise things how they like?

Yes you can install the Classic Theme Restorer extension without a problem.

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?

Search the Web box to the right of my address bar disappeared, how do I get it back?

The "Search the Web box to the right of my address bar disappeared. How do I get it back?

It is gone in the new version of Safari and the Safari in Mountain Lion. You cannot get it back.
Search is now done inside the adress bar, so you did not lose the search functionally. The location has changed.

The address bar and all the command & tool bars disappear from my web page as soon as I log on. The leaves me with no way to enter a web address or navagate.

When I attempt to use Firefox, the address bar and all the command & tool bars disappear from view as soon as I start the program. I can see the scrolling our of view at the top of my screen. This leaves me with no way to enter a web address, navigate or even exit the program.

Why in address bar in not the url but "go to the web site"? How can I see url in the address bar?

Why in the address bar is not URL but "go to the web site"? How can I see the URL in the address bar?

those are some addons that other users have reported to cause the same problem in the past: Gom player, Ask Toolbar, DivX (Plus) Web Player, RealPlayer Browser Record Plugin...
in case you have one of them present, try to disable/remove it - otherwise you could disable all your extensions & reenable them one by one (a restart of the browser might be necessary after each step) until you find the culprit.

Why are URLs not saved in the address bar immediately upon typing?

This might be a tricky one to explain so please bear with me.
Sometimes, when I click on a link or type an address, the page will fail to load for any number of reasons. However, when this happens, sometimes Firefox doesn't save the URL of the page I attempted to visit in its address bar. Instead, the address bar is either blank or shows "about:blank". This means that hitting the Refresh button does nothing (since Firefox thinks there is no URL to refresh!).
Another symptom of this problem is if you open a link in a new tab (or window), then immediately attempt to bookmark the page while it is still loading. Say, for example, a page is taking a bit too long to load and you decide to bookmark it for later viewing. It turns out that what you're actually bookmarking is - again - the URL "about:blank".
This is incredibly frustrating behaviour. My expectation as a user is that *the moment you click or type a URL, that URL should be concretely cemented into the address bar*, and even if the page fails to load, takes a long time, or other problems occur, the refresh button should always work, the bookmark function should always work, and the window or tab should *always* have a concrete "identity" of that URL you clicked or typed.
Does this make sense?

I'm using Firefox 22 on Windows 7 64-bit, by the way.
You can very easily replicate this "bug" (or "feature"... ahem) by shift-clicking any hyperlink which opens up a new Firefox window. Immediately hit the "stop" button to stop the page from loading.
If you're fast enough, the address bar will be completely empty and you can't "refresh" or try again or anything.
In my opinion, the URL should be placed into the address bar the very moment that new window opens. I'd appreciate an explanation of why this is not already the case and if it will or will not be the case in the future.

Typing a phrase in the Address Bar of Firefox 3.6 used to lead me to the relevant website, but this doesn't happen in FF4, even though keyword.enabled value is set to true in the config page. Why doesn this happen?

In the about:config page the keyword.enabled value is set to "true". And the keyword.URL value is set to "default". When I type a phrase in the Address Bar, a page with a Yahoo! search result opens unlike intuitively loading the relevant page using Google. Why is this happening?

To use the Google's browse by name feature as used in Firefox 3.6, set keyword.URL to this link:
[http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q= http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=]

How do i get the refresh button to not disappear after i have moved it to the left side of the address bar in firefox 8?

when i customize the toolbar i moved the refresh button to the left side of the address bar, i also put the stop button and home button there as well. but after i click done when i have finished only the refresh bar disappears, but i can click customize and it reshows up in the same spot only to disappear again after i click done. it used to work just fine in firefox 3.

I've attached a screenshot. You may have to move one of the buttons around a bit until it settles down. Alternatively you can also add a '''Separator''' ('''View''' (or '''Alt''' + '''V''') > '''Toolbars''' > '''Customize''') between the two.

When I send a group email why does the address bar not present the names alphabetically?

I frequently send emails to groups. Sometimes, for one reason or another, I want to delete one or more contacts from the list that appears in the address bar. Why does the list not appear in alphabetical order and is there any way that I can edit my contact lists to make it do so? It means picking through a list one by one rather than scrolling down a list to find a contact in the correct order.

Basically I suggest you keep using Eudora.
Like most of those moving now, they are unlikely to be happy with anything else. But then that is to be expected, you have clung to abondonware for 5+ years after it's replacement. People that dedicated are unlikely to be happy with anything else.
The Business standard and professionalism are not based on the Eudora way of things. I suggest you stick undisclosed-recipients: into a google search box and get instructions on how to do things for all the major mail clients.
Of note Thunderbird displays nothing in the To field, even though the undisclosed-recipients: is inserted in the outgoing mail.
<blockquote>
I have tried using Bcc, and indeed, the recipients are suppressed, but not as a group. I have to change every recipient address from To: to Bcc: manually.
</blockquote>
Perhaps if you use the buttons at the bottom of the contact pane to add the list to BCC you would not have to manually change anything. See https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/addressing-email#w_selecting-the-entries-from-the-contact-pane
I am interested however how when you added a list so it appears on multiple lines. All I see is he list name until after I press the send button and look at it in the sent folder.
Most people use another address entirely in the to:, in conjunction with the BCC list. It verifies the list mail is sent by coming back and you can put whatever you like in the display name of the email address.

Dragging from the address bar to desktop... Why open a new window?

Running 64bit Windows 7 Pro with SP1 installed. Also running Internet Explorer 11.
When I drag the icon from the address bar of IE to my desktop to create a shortcut to that webpage, the current tab will close and a new browser window opens and loads the page. Why does this happen, and more importantly, how can I stop it?

Hi yes... it did work before Tear-able tabs were introduced...
I opened a connect ticket at the MS Feedback channel for IE.
https://connect.microsoft.com/IE/feedback/details/930834/dragging-from-the-address-bar-to-desktop-why-open-a-new-window-tearable-tabs-breaks-drag-drop-to-desktop-from-addressbar
I don't think it will be a show stopper...
another workaround is to store all of your links in your Favorites folder (or Favorites Bar folder)...
then the Address bar autocomplete makes it easy to retrieve the web address and navigate back to the website....
If you are using the desktop to store your downloads (zips/whatever), there is no need for this as the IE Download Manager will retain a listing of downloaded files (until you clear it)... you can also choose to save your downloads to the Desktop folder
I/o the default Downloads folder.
