										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Missed that old Windows handy calendar on the taskbar?</h2>
<p>There are quite a lot of menu bar calendar alternatives out there.<span id="more-90"></span></p>
<ul>
<li>Itsycal (<a href="https://www.mowglii.com/itsycal/">link</a>)</li>
<li>Calendar (<a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/calendar/id415181149?mt=12">link</a>)</li>
<li>Fantastical (<a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/id435003921?mt=12">link</a>)</li>
<li>Day-O (<a href="http://www.shauninman.com/archive/2011/10/20/day_o_mac_menu_bar_clock">link</a>)</li>
<li>CalendarMenu (<a href="http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/43064/calendarmenu">link</a>)</li>
</ul>
<p>Having tried all of the above, at least in Mac OS X version 10.11 El Capitan, I&#8217;ve found that the most practical is Day-O. That&#8217;s just simply because it can replace the original calendar and just show the little drop-down month view calendar as expected.</p>
<p>After you install the application, you&#8217;ll see two calendars on the menu bar.</p>
<p><a href="http://georgemastro.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Screenshot-2016-04-03-02.31.32.jpg" rel="attachment wp-att-91"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-91" src="http://georgemastro.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Screenshot-2016-04-03-02.31.32.jpg" alt="Screenshot 2016-04-03 02.31.32" width="458" height="44" srcset="https://georgemastro.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Screenshot-2016-04-03-02.31.32.jpg 458w, https://georgemastro.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Screenshot-2016-04-03-02.31.32-300x29.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 458px) 100vw, 458px" /></a></p>
<p>Just click the new one on the right and hit preferences. Now check the settings, so that it looks like the original.</p>
<p><a href="http://georgemastro.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Screenshot-2016-04-03-02.34.07.jpg" rel="attachment wp-att-92"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-92" src="http://georgemastro.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Screenshot-2016-04-03-02.34.07.jpg" alt="Screenshot 2016-04-03 02.34.07" width="816" height="506" srcset="https://georgemastro.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Screenshot-2016-04-03-02.34.07.jpg 816w, https://georgemastro.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Screenshot-2016-04-03-02.34.07-300x186.jpg 300w, https://georgemastro.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Screenshot-2016-04-03-02.34.07-768x476.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 816px) 100vw, 816px" /></a></p>
<p>Don&#8217;t forget to uncheck the &#8220;Show Icon&#8221; checkbox. All you have to do now is to hide the original time on the menu bar. Click on it and hit &#8220;Open Date &amp; Time Preferences&#8230;&#8221; and then uncheck this and you&#8217;re done.</p>
<p><a href="http://georgemastro.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/2016-04-03-at-02.37.png" rel="attachment wp-att-93"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-93" src="http://georgemastro.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/2016-04-03-at-02.37.png" alt="2016-04-03 at 02.37" width="555" height="313" srcset="https://georgemastro.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/2016-04-03-at-02.37.png 555w, https://georgemastro.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/2016-04-03-at-02.37-300x169.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 555px) 100vw, 555px" /></a></p>
<p>Now everything should look like this:</p>
<p><a href="http://georgemastro.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Screenshot-2016-04-03-02.39.03.jpg" rel="attachment wp-att-94"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-94" src="http://georgemastro.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Screenshot-2016-04-03-02.39.03.jpg" alt="Screenshot 2016-04-03 02.39.03" width="468" height="564" srcset="https://georgemastro.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Screenshot-2016-04-03-02.39.03.jpg 468w, https://georgemastro.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Screenshot-2016-04-03-02.39.03-249x300.jpg 249w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 468px) 100vw, 468px" /></a></p>
