What you need to do to be able to use Application Bar are:

  1. Add reference to Microsoft.Phone.dll

  2. Add following two namespaces

    xmlns:phone="clr-namespace:Microsoft.Phone.Controls;assembly=Microsoft.Phone" xmlns:shell="clr-namespace:Microsoft.Phone.Shell;assembly=Microsoft.Phone"

  3. Then you can use the application bar :

<phone:PhoneApplicationPage 
    ...
    xmlns:phone="clr-namespace:Microsoft.Phone.Controls;assembly=Microsoft.Phone"
    xmlns:shell="clr-namespace:Microsoft.Phone.Shell;assembly=Microsoft.Phone"
    ...
    >
    ...

    <phone:PhoneApplicationPage.ApplicationBar>
        <shell:ApplicationBar IsVisible="True">
            <shell:ApplicationBarIconButton IconUri="/Images/button1.png" Text="Button 1"/>
            <shell:ApplicationBarIconButton IconUri="/Images/button2.png" Text="Button 2"/>
        </shell:ApplicationBar>
    </phone:PhoneApplicationPage.ApplicationBar>
</phone:PhoneApplicationPage>
