Hello Please HELP, I HATE updating but was forced to by another issue. Now I can't search in the Google window ...it moves to the address bar, where it resists amendments. How can I restore the old way please? Thanks

You can turn it off by entering about:config in the URL bar and switching browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.improvesearch.handoffToAwesomebar to false.
