Phil writes: Thanks for the tip on the full-screen button [in Yosemite for Mac]. What happened to the Favorites toolbar? Now it seems that you have to click the little box on the left to get the tool bar to drop and then select. Seems long winded.
Repeat the command (hit the up arrow and press Enter) to create additional recent or favorite stacks in the Dock as required. To choose whether a new stack contains certain types of favorite items.

Hi Phil! I too was a bit surprised that Safari’s Favorites bar—you know, the bar with buttons for all your favorite sites that sits just below the address bar—disappeared once I installed the Yosemite update on my Mac. What happened?
Phew, it’s back!
Well, never fear. The Favorites bar isn’t gone forever. It’s just hiding.
To reveal the old Favorites bar, click the View menu, then select Show Favorites Bar. Done!
Want to keep the Favorites bar hidden? If so, you can still get to your favorites by clicking the address bar. When you do, a panel with icons for all your favorite sites will slide out. Click an icon to visit a favorite.
Or, here’s another option: As Phil notes, you can click the sidebar button in the top-left corner of the Safari window. When the sidebar appears, click the left Bookmarks tab, then open up the Favorites section.
Bonus tip
Want to know the easiest way to add a site to the Favorites bar? Just drag its URL from the address bar into the Favorites bar; when you do, the buttons for other favorite sites will scoot out of the way.
Need to delete a favorite? Just drag it out of the Favorites bar.

Our you can just go to Library and drag the favorites folder into the sidebar.
There is also an Applescript called 'New Favorites Window' located here:
/Library/Scripts/Navigation Scripts/New Favorites Window.scpt
What I'd like is to be able to see the Finder's 'Recent Folders' list in the sidebar. However, I couldn't find any way to access this as a folder...
How about using Default Folder to get the 'just used folders' feature?
Panther seems to have done away with the Favorites folder altogether, so this is why the key command no longer works.
If you look at the Go menu, Favorites is no longer in the list. I did an Archive and Install, and Panther did not make a new Favorites folder either. I guess Apple figures the Sidebar replaces the Favorites folder.
Favorites still exists - do a search for the word in Help and the first result covers this. The folder is in your ~/Library folder. The help file does suggest that the Finder sidebar be used in place of Favorites, and the icons in the sidebar will scale as you add more items, which is nice, but if you have a lot of favorites you'll probably be happier adding the folder to the sidebar. Now, if you do this, the icon for the folder does change to the familiar Favorites heart. But! Dragging and dropping does not create aliases any more - it moves the dropped item into the folder wholesale. So you need to cmd-alt drag to create an alias, unless I'm missing something vital. I suppose you could add a folder action to Favorites that moved the dropped file back to its original location and then created an alias in Favorites whenever you added a file...
It is also my impression that the sidebar replaces the favourites folder, which is a pity, since I liked to have access to a handfull of very often used folders via the finder bar icons, and having a separate longer list of favourites (mainly used in save dialog boxes).
My sidebar is now quite long, taking up a lot of space with all the long folder names I have, and also confuses me somewhat since in icon view it looks like the are some additional items in my folders. The finder bar icons were optically much more separated from the window content.
If I could only figure out how to restrict the sidebar to show only the icons; currently every time I open a folder the first thing I do is minimizing the sidebar so it only shows the icons.
If you did a clean install and want your Favorites folder back, simply create a new folder named 'Favorites' and drag it to your sidebar, or call it anything you want.
For hamarkus:
If you want to restrict the sidebar to only show icons, simply drag the places column bar to the left till you only see the icons. Note that this only applies to the current window. To make this apply to all new windows, create a new window and drag the places column bar to the left as mentioned above till you only get the icons. Then close the window. All new windows will inherit this view. For aliases you may have in your dock, click the alias to open the window, do the same steps as above for a new window, then close the window.

Oh, and one other thing. You can still drag folders to the Finders toolbar as in Jaguar and earlier.
