All of a sudden, command-F (find) stopped working in Safari (5.1.7). Choosing Find from the Edit menu works fine. I checked the keyboard shortcuts in Systems Preferences, and there is nothing for command-F.
Is there anywhere else to look? Thanks.

Does it work in the Finder?
Yes, command-F works in the Finder. It just never works in Safari.
Select Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them and test.
Nothing odd with the extensions. I restarted Safari, and now command-F is working normally. Go figure. Thanks for your help anyway. It got me moving along.
When I try to use Command F in Safari, at best it will find things that are not there, and at worst it will totally flip out and make the text backwards/upside down, disable the scrolling, and just generally look like a graphics malfunction. Sometimes refreshing the page several times will bring it back to normal, though not the Find function, and sometimes I have to quit safari. Has this happened to anyone before?? Please help! I have 10.7.5
