Media bins

I have just downloaded and begun using Movie Studio 13.0 and have opened an old 9.0 project and all is well except I cannot find any way to create media bins or otherwise arrange my project media. The media window shows some (but not nearly all) of my project media. A search of the help file turns up nothing about media bins. The 'Adding, managing and arranging media' section of help explains nothing about how to 'arrange' my media.

If I right click a clip in the media window, a context menu offers a 'remove from current bin' selection (disabled), and a 'search media bins' selection. If I run a search (even on a known clip), absolutely nothing happens.

So it appears 13.0 supports media bins, but can someone help me find them or explain how to create them?

Also, is there a way to change the 'view' of the media window (thumbs, list, details etc.) ala Windows explorer?

Many thanks,

Ripper

Do you have Movie Studio 13 or Movie Studio Platinum 13? If you are still on the trial, I suggest you go for the Platinum version. The basic Movie Studio Application Help says nothing about e.g. using bins, whereas MS Platinum Help does say, so these features along with a lot of others are probably missing.
