10.4: Recover missing menubar icons in 10.4.4
Tinkertool's "Update Menu" usually works for me when my menulets go AWOL (which they do a lot). Or I'll just go to the relevant prefpane and check/uncheck the relevant "Show XXX Menu" checkbox a few times until the offending menulet reappears.
If that fails, I just force-launch (double-click) them directly from within Core Services, and have also even been known to drop the more troublesome menulets (like Script.menu, which NEVER stays put for me) into my account's Login Items, so that I can be sure they'll launch at boot. You can find your menulets (menu bar items) here: ~/System/Libray/Core Services/Menu Extras/Granted it's a pain to have to do this all the time, but there's really no reason why anyone should have to go without any menulet for extended periods of time if it disappears. Encouraging them to come back is usually a pretty simple process, albeit somewhat annoying. (Unfortunately deleting Search.Bundle certainly hasn't helped to permanently fix this minor grievance for me. And my menulets have been randomly disappearing for as long as I can remember. Waaay before 10.4.4, and across multiple machines. I'm surprised that more people don't complain about this issue. My regular offenders, incidentally, are Displays.menu, Bluetooth.menu and of course Script.menu, but even Clock.menu has been disappearing lately too.)
