The keyboard shortcut to show the Bookmarks Sidebar is Command+B. Some pages may intercept Command+B to bold text, but it should work most of the time.

One issue that seems to affect bank sites is Firefox's "Total Cookie Protection" feature. This limits how sites can use "third party" or "cross-site" cookies, meaning cookies from different websites than the one you see in the address bar. Some sites pass you back and forth between different servers during login because they have their services spread out over a number of different servers. In those cases, you might be able to submit a form successfully on one page and then the next page says you are not logged in. Frustrating!

You can make exceptions to this feature when needed (for each server that you visit as part of the process of using this company's services). More info in the following articles:

Any difference?
