Get rid of the MobileMe sync icon in Leopard’s menu bar
2 Oct2008
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!
Phew, the title took more to write than what the post really should contain, that is:
Keep Command key pressed while dragging the Sync icon out of the menu bar.
Now, why would you do this? Maybe, like me, you have a fresh Leopard install and you NEVER use MobileMe, and you want to declutter the menu bar. Easy, ain’t it?

Start up iSync (in your Applications folder), go to Preferences, and you can permanently make it go away, even after you reboot.

Yeah, being the cleanfreak I am, I thought I’d never be able to rid my menu bar of that unused, annoying little icon – http://blog.gingergeek.com/2009/06/how-to-remove-the-isync-mobileme-icon-from-menu-bar/

THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH! like really i was super aggravated about that and knew on windows you just right click and unlock ur menu bar, this is something that should be spread around. I feel really dumb as to how easy it was and how much trouble i have had with it.
