After upgrading to the latest version Google has disppeared from search bar
Earlier Google was displayed in the Search Bar, next to the Address Bar. I just had to click Google to go to Gmail. After selecting to try Firefox latest version, Google is not displayed in the Search bar. I have tried to change Search settings etc but with no luck. How can I get the earlier feature or migrate to the earlier version.

In the current Firefox 34 release there is a new "one-off" search bar. This search bar doesn't show the name of the search engine and a logo.
You can type one letter to make a drop-down list appear where you can see suggestions and see the used search engine and that also has bar at the bottom where you can select other search engines that are enabled via the Search tab in Options/Preferences. You can use the Tab key to select one of the other available search engines and press the Enter key to search with the selected search engine.
Click the search engine icon and click "Change Search Settings" to open the Search tab in Options/Preferences (positioned between Tabs and Content) to select the default search engine and select which search engines to show in the search bar drop-down list that opens when you start typing search terms.
If you want to restore the previously used standalone window to manage search engines then you can toggle this pref to false with a middle-click on the about:config page.
- about:config page: browser.search.showOneOffButtons = false
You need to close and restart Firefox to make this work properly.
You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.
