How can I add the hard drive icon to the menu bar on a MBPr

How can I add the hard drive icon to the menu bar on a MBPr?  I have downloaded Google Earth and it wants me to drag it to the hard drive for install. I was able to display the icon but now I would like to put it on the menu bar. Is this possible? Or can I add it to the hardware section under system preferences?
I'm a new Apple user, coming out of the dark ages of a lifetime in the PC Windows world.
Thanks

It's on your Desktop, is it not? You cannot put it on the menubar through OS X although you may find third-party utilities that will. If you want it on the Desktop:
Select Preferences from the Finder's Finder menu and check the desired boxes:
Click on the Sidebar icon in the toolbar to set what you want displayed in the Sidebar.

  • How can I add the address bar that I've removed before ?

    I removed address bar from my Firefox but now I can't bring it back . when I right click on the top bars, it doesn't show any choice to bring the address bar back !
    Could you please help me ?

    * If on Windows in Firefox 3.6 the menu bar is hidden then press and hold the Alt key down, that should make the "Menu Bar" appear.
    * Go to "View > Toolbars" and put a check-mark for "Menu Bar" to make that permanent. See [[Menu bar is missing]]).
    * Make sure that you have the ''Navigation Toolbar'' and other toolbars visible: "View > Toolbars"
    * If items are missing then see if you can find them in the "View > Toolbars > Customize" window.
    * If you see the item in the Customize window then drag it back from the Customize window to the Navigation toolbar.
    * If you do not see that item then click the "Restore Default Set" button in the "View > Toolbars > Customize" window.

    how can i add new identity option in file option of menu bar

    There are, but not with a DVD written as a movie disk. It must be closed when completed, or it doesn't work.
    Apple's built in Burn utility also automatically closes any data CD, DVD or Blu-ray disk you burn. Doesn't matter how much space is unused, you can't use it. You'd have to use a more advanced disk creation app, such as Toast Titanium. I then have the option of choosing to write the data as a session:
    I can keep doing this until the disk is full. If I've written five sessions to the disk, when I put it in the drive, five CD/DVD icons will appear on the desktop since the OS will treat each session as if they are separate physical disks. At any point you choose Write Disk when writing a group of data, that means you're closing the disk, and again can't add anything after that. So if I had written two sessions, and the third was Write Disk, it's over. I can't put anything else on that disk.

  • How can i see the MENU bar. Help says "Right-click on an empty section of the Tab Strip. What is a Tab Strip?

    My friend just bought a Windows 8 laptop so I told her to download the latest version of FireFox. Unfortunately, some idiot removed the Menu Bar which most people love. You can see all of your options in plain English. Anyway, I referred her to help and cannot believe it's so hard to get a simple answer to this question. Why does FireFox make it so difficult to get an old fashioned menu bar?
    Help says, "Right-click on an empty section of the Tab Strip and check Menu Bar". OK, what is a "TAB STRIP" and where does she find it? Who writes these silly, useless help tips?

    Grad, you made some good points but we still disagree. I'll acknowledge that maybe millions was a slight exaggeration but nobody has an accurate count. However, I do understand the difference between making something simple and obvious versus a programmer trying to prove how clever he or she is.
    Grad, I'm guessing you and your friends are much younger than us as we are well above the age of 50.
    As for the number of clicks, I'm confused by your comment. My Menu Bar is always visible so I have to merely '''click once on Bookmarks''' to get to those menu options. It sounds as if you have to initially click on the orange FireFox button in order to see the Menu Bar, and then click a 2nd time on Bookmarks. That sounds like 2 clicks of the mouse to me.
    I have Windows 7 and never saw Windows 8 so I can't comment on your excellent question. I personally had the '''Menu Bar displaying 100% of the time''' for as long as I could remember. I just couldn't remember how I initially turned it on several years ago and the help file proved to be more confusing than helpful.

  • How can I get the Menu Bar in P/S Ele. 9 to show in the organizer?

    The Menu bar IS in Edit.  Problem occured when I updated from XP to new computer w/ Windows 7.  There is a small rectangle where the menu bar usually is.  I can click on it and the menu bar opens vertically.  The rectangle can not be seen unless you stand up to locate it.

    The glitches and workarounds include:
    -          The Organizer’s menu bar (File, Edit, etc.) won’t show up. You can either set the Windows text size back to 100% (96 DPI), or you can set the Organizer option Edit > Preferences > General > Use System Font. With the latter, the results aren’t always the prettiest, e.g. the font in the Editor’s menu bar stays small, but the font in the dropdown menus gets large. But this workaround at least lets you keep the text size large so that you can read the text in all your other applications.
    -          The Advanced Dialog in the Photo Downloader won’t be available in PSE 8.  (That also occurs on short displays.) You’ll need to reduce the Windows text size to something less – how much depends on the resolution of your display.
    -          The Editor on Windows 7 can show a mouse cursor for some tools that looks like three distorted shadows of the true cursor.  You’ll need to reduce the Windows text size to less than 150% (149% works fine).
    To change the Windows text size/DPI of your display:
    XP: Start > Control Panel > Display or Start > Settings > Control Panel > Display.   Click Settings > Advanced.
    Vista: Windows Start > Control Panel > Personalization > Adjust Font Size (DPI).
    Windows 7: Start > Control Panel > Display. To choose a custom size, click Set Custom Text Size (DPI) on the left.

  • How can i hide the menu bar at the bottom of the app in itunes

    how can I hid the bar at the bottom of the App screen in itunes. Where it shows how much audio, app etc space you have left on your device

    Unforrtunately the status bar doesn't make any difference, however I have worked out that the bar does show when I go into full screen. 
    I would have thought it should also work when not in full screen - it certianly used to.

  • My menu bar disappeared (maybe I pressed a wrong button before). In other words: I cannot select File, Bookmarks, options, Help etc. How can I reactivate the menu bar?

    My Firefox looks like this at the top now:
    Line 1: Icons for page backward, forward, refresh, stop, homepage and then the entry filed for Urls. This was line 2 before, I had the Browser menu as line one and cannot reactivate it.
    Line 2: Pdfforge ( aplugin for Firefox)
    Below is only the browsing area

    Firefox 3.6+ versions have a feature to allow the user to hide the Menu bar.
    Hit the '''Alt''' key to temporarily show the Menu bar, then open View > Toolbars and select Menu bar, so it has a check-mark. <br />
    The F10 can also be used on most PC's to temporarily reveal the Menu bar.

  • How can I disable the menu bar to pop up when I move the cursor to the top of the screen?

    Greetings, guys!
    I'm completely new to Os X.
    I want to know if the menu bar can be disabled not to appear when moving to the screen top.
    It unnecessarily appears when I play a shooting game like Contract Killer in Full-screen Mode, in which I occasionally happen to move the cursor to the top.
    Thank you...

    There are 2 Fullscreen modes for some games. And some games only use 1 of them. The usual Fullscreen that you'd expect, and the one we call "Borderless Window".
    The classic Fullscreen utilizes all your display and things like menu bar, OSD's, "Always On Top" windows won't pop up while you are playing. But the Borderless Window is just a window that has the same resolution and dimensions with your desktop, and has no borders. Other elements like menu bars, OSD's and "Always stay on top" windows can get into your way while playing. And it's also slower than the classic fullscreen.
    Check if your game offers any option of selecting between these 2 Fullscreen Modes, and select the classic fullscreen mode.

  • How can I get my hard drive icon back on the desktop

    I just erased my hard drive on my Intel MacBook getting ready to give it to my daughter. I had the Snow Leopard install disc in the drive and used Disc Utility to erase the drive. I then installed Snow Leopard and everything went smoothly without a hitch.
    Other than -- the icon for the hard drive is not on the desktop! I can open a Finder window and see everything that should be on the drive after an erase and reinstall, but the drive is not there.
    How can I get it back?
    TIA
    I am so sorry! This question has been answered more than once. I searched but didn't find it. When I posted this, however, the list of similar questions that pops up next to the message sent me to a simple fix and now all is well.
    Again, sorry for having cluttered up the board with this question.
    Thanks.

  • How can i add the status bar to the bottom of iTunes 11.4?

    In the past, on Itunes 11.0, when I opened the program, there would be  a bar on top that would read, "File, Edit, View, Controls, Store,Help"  and below , a status bar that would tell me the number of tracks in  a playlist and duration, "7 Songs, 28:20 Total Time, 51 MB"
    Those controls/status bars are gone in the new 11.4 edition of iTunes.
    Any idea how to bring them back?
    many thanks!

    Use the View menu to show the status bar.

  • How can I change the menu bar in a Quicktime video?

    My cousin and I are starting a video network and we want to create custom menu bars for our videos. We know about watermarks on the videos themselves, but I've seen some videos have custom menu bar titles irrespective of the file names and I was wondering how to do that?

    If by "custom menu bar title" you are referring to the player window title bar, then most users would use QT 7 Pro to add a "Title" attribute to the "Properties" window and then enter the title they want displayed in the player window's title bar and "Inspector" window without affecting or changing the current filename.
