On my homepage, Firefox. I had a favorites menu on the left hand side. Now it is gone. I can get my bookmarks from toolbar but really liked it on the screen for easier access. Hw do I get it back?

Chosen solution

Version 1.5.0.12 is an extremely old version of Firefox, so these instructions may not be correct. Go to View > Sidebar and select Bookmarks. That should open the Bookmarks sidebar.

Is there any reason why you haven't updated to the latest version of Firefox? 1.5 is not being updated with security patches, and updates are free. See Upgrading from Firefox 1
