Seems that no matter how i tried to hold onto a ref to the
NSToolbarItem, it would be a copy.

So had to do this:

NSArray* toolbarVisibleItems = [[[self window] toolbar] visibleItems];
NSEnumerator* enumerator = [toolbarVisibleItems objectEnumerator];
NSToolbarItem* anItem = nil;
BOOL stillLooking = YES;

while ( stillLooking && ( anItem = [enumerator nextObject] ) )
{
if ( [[anItem itemIdentifier] isEqualToString:@"myIdentifierString"] )
{
[anItem setImage:newImage];

[anItem setLabel:newLabel];

stillLooking = NO;
}
}


Just FYI.
