This is in the top line...Apple icon, Mail, File, Edit, View, Mailbox, Message, Format, Window, Help, It (the icon for strength of signal) and sound level icon, plugged in icon percentage, and Date and time. But at times, it's just not there...all the others are. I just don't know why it sometimes is gone but the connection remains... This and the strange sleep failure to wake properly are the only two problems I've noticed. Any help is appreciated on either problem.
