How do I disable the vertical bookmarks menu?

Firefox has begun opening with a vertical menu bar for bookmarks on the left side of the window.
Please tell me how to disable this.
I'm using a Windows 8 Lenovo G505.
Thank you for your help...
Jim

Thank you all for your replies...
Firefox version is 23.0.1
The vertical bookmarks menu has been opening automatically every time I start a firefox session. Been happening since Labor Day weekend. I'm 99% sure I haven't accidentally opened it by pressing Cntl-B.
When I use bookmarks, I access them through the bookmarks menu button (white star in rectangle)located to the right of the search engine field. I find only that button in the Customize palette.
Pressing f10 opens the Win 8 Second Screen menu, tapping Alt opens the hidden menu.
Now the vertical menu is not opening, and I can't even figure out how to open it to test the 'Alt' button on it. I don't know what caused this!!
This vertical toolbar is especially annoying because it occupies about 20% of the working area of the browser.
Thank you all again for taking time to help!! I greatly appreciate it.
Jim

    Hi,
    Looks like the Bookmarks Sidebar is currently open in your Firefox.
    There are 2 ways of closing it:
    #There should be a small X mark on the right side of this vertical listing. Just click it and the Sidebar will close.
    #Or, you can click on the View menu, select Sidebar, and then select Bookmarks. The Bookmarks sidebar will now close.
    Hope this helps.

    LOL,  I can't even begin to complain with the number if times I misread questions, and then try to break my own record for the number of typos in a single post.
    The image above was taken on a photgraphic weekend where the group (of all young ladies ) I was travelling with, set us a photography challenge.  The one above was my response to a 'faceless portrait'.  The only other one I attempted was this response for a picture of a 'wild animal', featuring camera club president Liz.
    Oh what fun we had, laughing and laughing until our faces fell off.

    Hi Sphericalterm,
    Is it the Reading List that you are referring to? Does it look like this:
    If that is what it is, you can either click on the little pair of glasses in the upper left-hand corner just below the forward and back arrow keys, or you can click on View then click on Hide Reading List.
    Hope this helps!
    Cheers,

    To control the Location bar drop-down list, click Tools > Options (''in Firefox 8: Firefox button > Options > Options'') > Privacy, in the "Location Bar" section choose one of the options (choosing "Nothing" will cause the drop-down to not show).

  • How do i disable the irksome redirect drop down menu

    how do i disable the irksome "firefox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page" drop down box?
    thank you
    mark

    See:
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > General : Accessibility : [ ] "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page"
    The setting in "Tools > Options > Advanced > General" is meant as an accessibility feature, as you can see by the label of that section, so that people with disabilities or people who use screen readers do not get confused and is not meant as a safety protection to stop redirecting.

  • How can I DISABLE the pop up 'Would you like to copy it to Library', preventing this message from bothering for each and every book, again and again, time after time? (Windows 7 64bit US).

    How can I DISABLE the pop up 'Would you like to copy it to Library', preventing this message from bothering for each and every book, again and again , time after time? (Windows 7 64bit US).
    I guess this may be a feature request. Adobe may think this is a good message for every new eBook.
    I sure would like to decide about that myself.
    Thanks in advance if this will be changed.

    Decided to setup the mail for exchange on my N8 so I could see my work emails. Worked like a charm but after a couple of hours decided I didn't like being that contactable so deleted the mailbox.
    Now to the problem, during setup I was forced to enable the phone lock and had to pick a 7 digit alphanumeric code. Fair enough I thought and went ahead. When I removed the mailbox however the lock remained in place with the default auto time of 30 minutes. When I checked in Phone management there is no option to disable this lock so I thought I could at least change the default time to something bigger but when you try, it remains at 30 mins. You also can't disable the auto time as it pops up an error message saying can't unlock phone.
    Does anyone know if I'm missing something obvious here or is this something which can't be disabled once it's switched on? I've done a soft reset back to factory settings with no luck and the only other thing I can think of is re installing the firmware which seems a bit extreme.
    Would like to hope there is some way to have control over this. Can someone help?
    Which firmware your N8 having now? You can check firmware by choosing Call, then type *#0000#.
    My N8 works fine on security setting and able to define Phone auto lock period, by choosing Menu>Settings>Phone>Phone management>Security settings>Phone and SIM card>Phone auto lock period>User defined>Lock after(minutes)
    You will prompt to enter Lock code each time u define auto lock priod or enable/disable auto lock.
    Hope this can help you.

  • How do I disable the mute microphone icon on the Facetime page so that others can hear me speak, in addition to them seeing me?

    How do I disable the "mute microphone" icon on the Facetime page, so that the video recipient can not only see me,(which they can), but also to hear me as well?

    When you are on a Facetime call, click on "Video" on the top menu bar.  You'll see "Unmute" on the dropdown menu -- click on it.  Your mic should now be unmuted.  Note: You must be on a Facetime call, otherwise the mute/unmute option will be grayed out.
    Of course, when your mic is unmuted the option will turn to mute.
