Safari toolbar missing on iMac I have a new iMac running Tahoe 26.1. There is no Toolbar on Safari. When I go to the File Menu for Safari and list View, the only mention of Toolbar is to customize the toolbar. There is no Show or Hide Toolbar. It has just disappeared. I have checked in System Settings Menu and Desktop and Dock but I get no clue as to how to restore the toolbar. Any help will be appreciated.
