• Cannot type in the address bar of Safari

  All of a sudden, I can't do anything type in the address/search bar in Safari. I tried everything I can think of to fix it. I searched the internet and support forums of apple, did a restore from a previous backup and finally reinstalled OS x. Nothing works. The only way I've gotten on the apple web site is because my home page has been set to Xfinity, and it has a search capability. Any ideas?

• Since the installation of the last update of iOS on my iPad I'm unable to type in the address bar of safari. I can access the Web sites of my favorites, but when I try to enter a new address safari closes its doors.

  Since the installation of the latest update on my iPad, I'm unable to type a new address in the address bar of Safari. I can access the Web sites of my favorites, but when I press the address bar Safari closes its doors.

  I reset holding home and power button at the same time. I did that 4 times. I also left all the settings.

  I am also unable to access the server from imessage. I don't know if these two things are related, but the two that happened after the update to iOS 9.2.1

• Cannot search from the address bar of Safari

  For some reason any since this morning when I type a search term in the address bar of Safari and press ENTER, the browser does nothing. Previously, it would do a search or go to the entered URL.

  I disabled all extensions Safari, no joy. It works only if I'm in Safari preferences and on the Search tab I uncheck Include of Suggestions of Safari.

  Looking at the logs of the system I see error below. Any ideas?

• Safari. cannot type in the address bar after software 9.0.3 update today

  Hello

  I've just updated Safari to 9.0.3 this morning.

  Now I find that I'm unable to type a search in the address bar. Or type in anything, by the way.

  Normally, clicking in the address bar would like to point out what is there and he would remove a return back and I could type in a new search.

  I tried to restart the computer.

  Anyone any idea of it please.

  Joshe

  Turn off the Suggestions of Safari in the preferences/Safari/search / uncheck Safari Suggestions.

• Cannot type in the address bar or search... even in safe mode

  I use Firefox for years, so I'm not new at this. I already tried in SafeMode... same problem... so who says this isn't an add-on / plugin problem. I have not installed brand new in any case within a period of time.

  The only thing I can think is playing the game DC Universe Online I could hit a key combination and I was check what competencies would be a good thing on the Web site and the tab then return in the game. But what combination of keys would prevent you from typing in the search bar or the address bar?

  I'm able to stick in the bar and in this way but if I type and copy it from another browser to search... I might as well just use this other browser.

  After much searching I found the answer here:

• Cannot type anything on the address bar of Safari after update of El Capitan

  I recently updated yesterday at El Capitan and had problems with my safari since. Whenever I type something on the address bar of safari, nothing shows up, and it is very annoying because I use it to do research on google and visit the websites.

  If you click in the address bar, you should see a blinking vertical bar?

• We are unable to type in the address bar and change the homepage

  Hello, after I accidentally installed snapdo, we can not type in the address bar or the search bar. I managed to remove snapdo now of the laptop. Export my bookmarks, reset firefox, nothing has changed - still does not. Uninstalled firefox, reinstalled, still does not.

  In the end, we tried all those - they didn't work, but this thread and recommended prog worked.

  http://www.techsupportall.com/how-to-remove-doSearch-com-from-Internet-Explorer-chrome-Firefox/

  Then we uninstalled Firefox, deleted all associated files - in the AppData folder and then reinstalled.

  So it has now been resolved.

• When you open a new window, it automatically loads the last content pop up (?) and I'm unable to type in the address bar or open a new tab in the new window.

  I don't know if they are technically pop-up windows (for example, if you perform a search on kayak.com, it will automatically open a new window of priceline.com with the search results), but that happens with Blocker on or off. Other examples are a little info to a financial site window or .edu, which opens a session is about to expire, or answer a FAQ (with the exception of the priceline example, these windows have an address bar or view a URL). In any case, once these windows are closed, if I try to open a new window, it will automatically load the content of this "pop-up". Whenever he does, I'm unable to type in the address bar or open a new tab in this window.

  How can I fix it? What I want is to open a new window which is empty, not load the previous contents.

  No, I just realized that I was holding Command-Shift-N rather than command-N

• Stop Auto-loading that I type in the address bar.

  Today, I realized that if I pasted the text in the location bar, it automatically does a search via Google. I tried to stop this behavior, so I looked into it. I ended up trying to change keyword.enabled from true to false. He did not take what I wanted. Now whenever I type in the address bar that Firefox opens not only a drop to the low menu suggestions charge but immediately one closest with each character typed. I need to get back to where I started and be able to type in the address bar without loading any page. I tried switching keyword.enabled back, but the browser will not stop this new behavior.

  Too bad. It was an option for an add-on I use to count the words on a Web page. I didn't know that instant search is part of the add-on.

• Text of the address bar in Safari (GUI Bug) overlay

  Hello

  Today, I have problems with the Safari address bar.

  Direct search through the address bar does not work.

  I can open the first site that I type in. After that, when I select the address bar, the former Web site title will remain as I type. I can repeat that these steps and all text will be overlap in the address bar. No Web site can be opened with Safari. Below a screenshot of my address bar.

• How can I change the order of the sites when you type in the address bar?

  I used to type 'go' in the address bar if I want to go to google, so it automatically ends and I just click ENTER after 'go', but lately, one other site took place so when I click on enter I come to the wrong site. I didn't want this site more than google. How can I decide that there will be automatic? It's really annoying!

  If AutoFill (browser.urlbar.autoFill = true) is enabled, then you can not get a drop-down list, but Firefox will AutoComplete entry automatically.
