    Do you mean "Dock" when you write "bar"?

    If so, just drag the "Aol-App" to the dock.

    Granted i don't use "Aol".

    Well, send a message ([email protected]) to yourself, look if

    you do recieve it

    Or

    try to mount your "iDisk", which is propably your concern.

    AOL installs in your Applications folder. With some exceptions, Mac installers don't fill the Dock full of crap. As Vox Barbara said, if you want an application icon in the Dock all you have to do is drag the icon there.

    AOL, or an AOL folder should be in your applications folder. LIke most apps once you start it, it will pop up in your dock. If you want the icon to stay in your dock you can either slide it up one position, (or more) in your dock, and it will stay there after you quit the app. Or, you can hold your mouse pointer over the app icon in the dock with click held down to darken the icon, and once the menu appears choose "keep in dock."
