Also experiencing this issue on mac OSX 10.9.1.  Also present in WB 6.0.7 and didn’t correct itself after upgrading to 6.0.8. 

It worked fine for a few months, then suddenly stopped working.  Not corrected on uninstall/reinstall.  Menu item is grayed out, and keyboard shortcut does nothing.

Coworkers are also experiencing this.

when will this fix get in?  find and replace is a major part of my work in the sql input area.

fix confirmed in 6.1.2.11647.
CMD+F now properly brings in the search bar, and puts the focus into the search-textbox.

Fixed as of the upcoming MySQL Workbench 6.1.2 release, and here's the changelog entry:

On Mac OS X, "Command" + "F" did not open a search box in the SQL editor.

Thank you for the bug report.
