Not sure what you mean by a controller bar - although my Xbox 360 gamepad looks a little hungover this morning so I guess IT knows where the controller bar is :D
Have look at this tutorial here: http://xpadder.com/phpBB3.0.5/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=48

If you're still stuck let us know and we'll provide more steps.

Well, I have installed it, but under the image of the magnifying glass, and controller, I don't see the menu to add my profile, and image.

I have an xbox controller, and the usb cable attached to my computer, and I can't get it to connect. I have downloaded the software from Microsoft, and i got the utility running, but for some reason it just won't connect. :(

If you can see the magnifiying glass then Xpadder is looking for a controller which means one is not connected (or installed correctly).
Click the scanning animation and it will open the Windows Game Controllers Control Panel.
If your controller isn't listed there then it is not fully installed and Windows cannot see it at all.

That's the thing, it is not listed there, but I installed, and updated the microsoft drivers.

So, yeah, I just checked in Device Manager and it is listed.

I have Driver Version: 2.1.0.1349
XBox 360 Wireless Controller Play & Charge Kit

That's the problem. You have the wireless controller connected with the Play & Charge cable. You need the Xbox360 Wireless Gaming Receiver for Windows. The Play & Charge ONLY charges the battery, the play still needs the receiver.
