I want to organize my new bookmarks by putting them in the correct folders but this version of Firefox doesn't seem to have the bookmark sidebar like the old version. I choose "show all bookmarks" and it shows the folders but not the new bookmarks. The help file is only for the older versions of Firefox. Can someone please step me through this please. Thanks. Please notify me at artsiii@aol.com

After you click on Show All Bookmarks, click on the Bookmarks Menu which is showing in both the right and left side panels. Click on either side. This would bring up all of your bookmarks.

Hello Amy. Maybe I'm being dense but when I click on Show All Bookmarks I am presented with a new screen. It has a sidebar like the old Firefox but the folders are shown but none of the new bookmarks i want to organize. I must be doing something wrong

OK Amy. I got it. In the center panel there is a choise of "Bookmark Menu". When I click on that all my unorganized bookmarks appear and I can sort them. Thanks very much for your help.

Press Ctrl + B for the side bar, if you want. Right click it to make new folders and other things.

Wow that was intuitive... I should have know... Is that a Mac thing or something? Are menus getting old fashion? Or did they forget that small feature?
