Recovering app icon on menu bar

Hi,


I have previously removed an app icon from the menu bar and I can't seem to find an option to add it back.


How do I do it?

Usually that option is in the preferences for the application. If it is an app that shows in the System Preferences/Settings, look to see if the option is there. Worst comes to worse, get the original installer to install it back.

When you say, "Menu Bar" do you really mean the Dock? If so, there are several ways to restore any app to the Dock.

Launch the app in Finder from the Applications folder. Then right click (or control click) its icon in the Dock and choose, Options > Keep in dock. Another way is to find the app in Finder and the Applications folder then drag the app from there to the dock.
