new documents not automatically added sidebar. have drag them there. control appears on sidebar, go finder > preferences > sidebar

drag or command-drag off. shouldn't reappear unless manually add it. if changes don't stick, try deleting ~/library/preferences/com.apple.finder.plist , relaunch finder.
