In the View menu, the option to show the sidebar in the Photos app is greyed out. I have closed, forced closed, restarted the Mac, you name it and still unable to get to not be greyed out. Works fine on my other Macs, just not this one. Any ideas?
iMac (27-inch, Late 2013), OS X Yosemite (10.10.4)

Easy fix: just make your "Photos" window WIDER. It needs to have enough room to have sidebar.
again exactly as answered by the previous posts - correct but redundant
I made the Photos window bigger, and the sidebar reappeared, and the View/Sidebar menu item was no longer dimmed.

just make the size of the windows on photos bit bigger it should pop up by itself ok i just did on mine ok
the application window was too small. Once I dragged the corner to enlarge it, all kinds of wonderful things happened, including the sidebar option.

deleting following folder works , ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.Photos/
or you could just maximise ;-)

The answer is SO simple! I had this problem for days. I finally asked Apple. Just widen the Photos window and the sidebar reappears.
Thank you, this worked for me.
