I went from Version 3 to version 4 and when the new app was sarted there was a different toolbar , no bookmarks, no RSS items. 

At no time was there an alert or question about dumping the bookmarks , etc. In the past when upgrading to a new version the bookmarks and other settings and profile info was brought forward.

I tried to go back to the older version but could not.

Check that you still have the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" placed on the Bookmarks Toolbar

  • Make sure that you have the "Bookmarks Toolbar" visible: "View > Toolbars"
  • Check in "View > Toolbars > Customize" that the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is on the Bookmarks Toolbar
  • If the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" is not on the Bookmarks Toolbar then drag it back from the Customize window onto the Bookmarks Toolbar
  • If you do not see the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" then click the "Restore Default Set" button

Press F10 or press and hold the Alt key down to bring up the "Menu Bar" temporarily.

You can find the RSS feed (Subscribe) button in the toolbar palette in the "View > Toolbars > Customize" window and drag the button on a toolbar.
