Thanks

    You might be able to hold the apple key and drag it out of the menu bar

    You don't have a dot-Mac account? No wonder you can't access the features. Now I'm wondering how you got the menu item enabled in the first place. There must be some other way to enable it. You can double-click on the app buried deep in the System/Library folder, and that might do it.



    Here's what the rest of the dot-Mac pref pane looks like:

    Possibly it's the iSync.app menu item that's activated in Preferences?
