Safari: Address and Search bars missing
Posted: Dec 1, 2006 12:35 PM
 

The address bar on my Safari has vanished. Now, you may be thinking, "click View and go to 'Show Address Bar,'" yeah, I thought of that. No, see, the back, forward, reload, and add buttons are all still there. It's everything else (including the address bar and the google search bar) that's all gone. Nothing but a whole lotta silver blankness.

I've been having some troubles lately away... things have been taking forever to load and process (I've gotten stuck with that blasted spinny rainbow thing for minutes on end!), and at some point today, I was trying to go from one tab to another, when... poof. I mean, literally, poof, there was a cartoon of little poof of smoke at the bar, and then everything at top (save for the four buttons to the left) was gone! Now I'm kinda stuck and can't for the life of me figure out what happened.

I tried clicking "Hide Address Bar" and then "Show Address Bar," but all that does is hide and show the four buttons (back, forward, reload, and add) to the left.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thankee.

Hi,

Have you tried View menu -> Customize Toolbar... and dragging the address/google text boxes back onto the toolbar?
