I had same issue when I did an update for Ubuntu 11.10. Today I got the problem solved.

Just had to install blueman like this:

sudo apt-get install blueman

Got it solved, bluetooth icon is now back in the unity top bar.

    After installing Cairo-dock, the bluetooth indicator disappeared when I restarted my laptop. Bluetooth is working fine. But the bluetooth-indicator at top left of the panel is not showing up anymore. I have to go to System Settings>Bluetooth to add/remove bluetooth devices. How to bring back the bluetooth indicator?

    • /etc/xdg/autostart/bluetooth-applet.desktop and /etc/xdg/autostart/bluetooth-applet-unity.desktop exist

      Go into Terminal and type this: gksu nautilus /etc/xdg/autostart Then check and see if these two files are there: bluetooth-applet.desktop and bluetooth-applet-unity.desktop
