Hi Ronni, Thanks for your advice. Yes, Sierra otherwise operates just fine. I pretty much know how NC works as I had no issues before with El Capitan.
I wouldn’t be concerned except when NC is functioning it reveals Mail alerts which cover the RHS of the screen and cannot be deleted. In fact if I point the mouse any where near the alerts, the system will freeze with the spinning wheel turning for up to 20 seconds. I have turned all the NC alerts off and that clears that up. As soon as I turn Mail back on the alerts reappear and block the screen. Then I have to restart. I have a lot of emails in iCloud as I’m uncertain how to delete them en masse so maybe that’s an issue Is it possible to reset NC somehow?
