* Gnome Desktop Application Indicator display on Top Bar (GNOME Desktop Users Only)

• Gnome desktop users that prefer to have the application indicators displayed on the the top bar of the desktop can do so by installing the KStatusNotifierItem Gnome Shell Extension.
• Simply visit the Gnome Extensions page at https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/615/appindicator-support 
• If your you cannot install the KStatusNotifierItem Shell Extension you need to install the Gnome Shell Integration plugin first. For more information see https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/GnomeShellIntegrationForChrome
• Another way to display the icons on the top bar is to install Gnome Tweaks and then select Extensions > Top Icons > ON. This works well on CentOS 7. 
• On RHEL 8 / CentOS 8 use Gnome Tweaks and then select Extensions > KStatusNotifierItem/AppIndicator Support > ON. If the extension is not available, install with the following and enable with Gnome Tweaks:

sudo dnf install gnome-shell-extension-appindicator

• To activate the license enter the license activation code emailed to you, in the box provided and click Activate again.
• NOTE: The license code is only valid for the Google Account used during registration. If you get an Activation code error it is because the Google account used is not correct or the code was not copied and pasted correctly. The current connected account is shown in the preferences menu.

• Select My Drive and the location you want the shared items to sync to and click the ADD button.
