Where is option to have side bar in iTunes 12 ?

Since, 11 iTunes has been disabling my option of having the sidebar... which is annoying... but now I cant find the option to have it again... since I found this better and easier to use than that ribbon of silly icons... It is a pain in the neck dragging a song to my iPod, in its specific playlist(still don't know how to do it properly in this new version) ... This is why I had the side bar, it was constant to the GUI design of Finder...
Please enable the option to have iTunes sidebar again... the flat GUI is irritating as it is, but getting rid of the option to have the sidebar just made me crazy, mad and insane.

I found my own answer for those who are interested. From the "Playlist View" with Library -> Music selected in the Sidebar on the left, notice that "Albums" is the default in the menu bar at the far right. There is a drop-down selection arrow there. Click that and select "Songs" to put the library view back in "Column Browser" view. Very cumbersome to set up, but it does appear that iTunes 12 will re-open to your last view so hopefully I don't have to go thru all those clicks every time.

How can I have the side bar in iTunes 12??

I just installed iTunes 12 that was claimed to provide "a more pleasant interface for navigation"!?!?
Personally, I do not find the new view format pleasant at all. I expected to be allowed to go back to the lateral bar visualization, finding it as a view option. It was quite upsetting finding out that the option disappeared from the menue. Did you have the brilliant idea to remove it, or did you simply hide it somewhere else? (I am definitely too old to play "hide and seek" with visualization options and I really do not have the time either)
Probably, kids like big figures that do not require any reading skill, unfortunately I do not.
I conclusion, how can I have the side bar visible again in iTunes 12???
Thank you
P.S. Playlists is similar to lateral bar, but not the same, as it is not ONE allowing to navigate music, movies, podacast, but one for each.

The functionality of the sidebar has changed indeed. But what's the problem? Category's of the library have been separated from playlists and moved to one of the top bars. I think it's an improvement for people using iTunes as a media-management tool. In the old version the playlists were at the bottom of the sidebar and if you had all options activated you had to scroll down to find your playlists.
You don't have to do that anymore. Your music library is now aside with the playlists. If you want to activate another categorie you can use the icons in the topbar and still keep the overview on your playlists.
People who use iTunes for syncing iDevices seem less happy with this new presentation. It seems a minor adjustment to me, but others seems to think otherwise.

Why would apple not automatically show the side bar in iTunes. Wasted 20 min trying to find out why my ipod was not showing up. Really really bad idea, Apple.

Why does the side bar not automatically show up when you first download apple iTunes? Really really bad design. It took 20 min to fine the setting that enable the side bar. ***? I could not access my iPod for 20 freakin min! Just show the **** side bar always! Maybe apple is too big and is starting to lose common sense.

Because Apple update iTunes to do it that way. Apple has not said why.

Pink Song List and Dark Green Side bar on itunes 8

I'm using itunes 8 and as soon as i downloaded and installed it, the song bar was hot pink instead of the normal white, and the sidebar was a dark green instead of the normal light grey. However, if you resize the borders, it goes back to the normal itunes colors. This is on everything in itunes, including the library and itunes store. The songs play properly and it functions as normal, but I want to get rid of the pink on the song lists! I understand that there is a new itunes version currently available, version 8.1. I'm reluctant to install this version and have the same problems all over again! Please Help Me!!!

Change the monitor's bitdepth to 32 bit from the Control Panel.

Iphone device doesn't show up on the side bar after new driver installed. How do I fix this?

I had to install a new drive into my laptop. When I tried to download an audible book into my Iphone the device doesn't show on the side bar anymore. When I try to sync it from Itunes it doesn't do anything either. Any suggestions on how to get my phone device back on the side bar?

I can no longer see the top menu bar in itunes. where you see the status of syncing. where you have the option to click and move a song you are playing to the middle of the song, etc.

It's iTunes screen menubar:

"load this bookmark in the side bar" is an option in bookmarks library. Where is the "side bar?"

Where is the option to hide/show side bar??

since i just did the new update 12.1.0.50 a few moments ago, it resolved the matter of not having the side bar, but now you cannot make it go away. what are you guys doing? first you take it away from us, now we cannot get rid of it. can you please put back the option in the menu to hide/show side bar? it would be greatly appreciated.

I'm guessing here, but when you say "you guys", you are referring to Apple? Well, this is a user to user support forum, Apple does not participate here. If you want to provide feedback to Apple, go HERE, and click on the appropriate subject.

Why most of the pages of my site are named "About me" if none have that name in the side bar nor in the inspector?

Here is my site for you to see what I am talking about; http://www.minkstereo.com after you enter, if you go to each of the menus you will notice that only Books and Ilustrations is named correctly in the tab, if you go to Drawings, Graphic Design, Crafts or any of the images you'll see that the page name is "About me" I have republished and check all over the page in iweb and I don't know why it is happening. Each page has a different name in accordance with the content both in the side bar and in the inspector it shows.
Any help is appreciated thank you.

Your images shows how to change the pagename, the filename. of the page.
Not the browser title.
Anyway, there is a textbox out of view that holds the title :
Beats me what it is doing there, but here is the oft repeated explanation :
iWeb uses the textbox in the Header layer of an iWeb page as the title in the browserwindow.
If the textbox in the Header is missing, iWeb uses a textbox down the page in the Content layer. If that textbox is also missing, it uses another textbox. If that fails it uses the pagename in the Sidebar. To replace a missing textbox in the Header, choose another theme and then change it back to the original one.
Sometimes you may want a different text in the titlebar and not display it on the page itself. Or not display it at all.
So use that textbox in the Header layer. Type your text. Do Command-T to open the font palette and make the font smaller (Or do Command--(minus)). Then select the textbox. In the Inspector choose T, click a color to open the color palette and drag the opacity slider to 0 (zero).
Resize the textbox. You may want to change the height of the Header layer.
Do Command-Shift-B to move the textbox to the back, possibly behind other objects.
Next add a optional second textbox to the Header layer and use that one to display text on the page.
If you want to move the textbox to the front again to make changes, but can't remember the location on the page, drag the area with the mouse to select the objects.
Deselect objects you do not want to move forward by Command-dragging the mouse over these objects.
Next do Command-Shift-F to move the textbox to the front. Repeat the steps in reverse order to make the text visible.

I had on my desk top PC (a vista OS) a version of FireFox that the book marks where listed in the book tool bar tab and the "book tool" was able to show all my favs and there was a scroll bar on the right side of the top right side. I would like very much to turn it on in the Laptop I just bought and am having a fit trying to figure out all the differences,.I very much like this function; however, I am now using win 7 which in and of itself is difficult to figure out troubles when they occur such as if the MSN Bing program opens a video window while I am playing, the media center will lock up, or if I am listening to BBradio.org and click on lestening to one of the pastors the laptop will show static on the screen and all you hear is static like you just went to the twilight zone.
