Icon gone after 0.10.10 update about itsycal HOT 5 CLOSED

@tiaanwillemse I'm glad it's working. It's not a bug and there is nothing I can fix. It only affects users on OS X 10.10 who are upgrading from a previous version. New installs and users on 10.11 don't have to restart. A restart is required because of the way the OS X SystemUIServer process caches the menuextra (the icon you can move in the menu bar) which was changed in this update. An alternative to restarting is to kill the SystemUIServer process and let the system automatically restart it. It's easier to just tell people to reboot than to explain how to go into Terminal or Activity Monitor and kill the process.

There is a note about this in bright red text in the release notes (https://www.mowglii.com/itsycal/versionhistory.html) which upgrading users see in the Sparkle updater dialog for this version. Since you updated from an old version of Itsycal from before Sparkle was incorporated, you didn't see the note.

I'm going to close this issue now.

@clarklab Hmmm, rebooting should have done it. Are you on OS X 10.10? Is there any chance there is more than one copy of Itsycal on your machine? Could there be an older copy somewhere?

I think this is related: After update of Itsycal from 0.9.2 to 0.10.10 an icon briefly shows on app startup then disappears. Afterwards it behaves like @clarklab's screenshot above.

@tiaanwillemse Any luck after restarting? Do you have any other copies of Itsycal on your system? If you only have the latest version and you restart, it should work properly.

@sfsam the icon is appearing after a restart. Thanks for the help. I still think that this issue should be resolved to work on install and not just on restart. If you let me know when you fixed the bug, I'll build a release and test it on my side.
