The search window has disappeared in our location bar, and the address window now runs where the search bar used to be. How can we get the search window back on top?

I am assuming that you mean the search box to the right of the address bar? I am using windows, but I assume that it should be the same for Mac: 1) Open the hamburger menu in the far right of the toolbar 2) Press customise 3) Click and drag the icon that says 'search' to where you want it on the toolbar 4) Press 'exit customise' in the bottom right 5) You can adjust the size by dragging between the boxes.

Thanks so much. I thought I had looked at the customizing options and didn't find "search", but it was indeed there to put back in.

Really appreciated your advice.
