Good to be careful...

Just type in the 'instructions' after the 'cryptodomus$' bit, and press Return. That sends the 'instruction/command' to the processor, and it does things...

Hi Ronni,
Great but I’ve not attempted to work in terminal before.
I found the app and opened it.
the text “Marcus-F-Harris-iMac27:~ cryptodomus$“.appears.
Do I then delete this and enter the instructions you sent “killall NotificationCenter” ?
Or do I open a new window?
Then what?
Hate to stuff up in terminal.
Cheers
Marcus

Hi Marcus,

Is it possible to reset NC somehow?

*Reset/Restart Notification Center:*

You can forcibly restart the Notification Center in Terminal.app by issuing the following command string:

|killall NotificationCenter|

*Note* there is no space between the names

Cheers,

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?
Cheers

Hi Marcus,

I have not experienced any problems with Notification Center in Sierra or iOS 10 on my Macs and iDevices. So I don't think your issue is caused by Sierra.

Have you had a good read on how to use Notification centre in Sierra?
https://support.apple.com/kb/PH25142?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US


  macOS Sierra: Use Notification Center.

Alerts, alarms, reminders, email-chances are you see a steady stream every day. Notification Center is Sierra's Grand Central Station for the information competing for your attention. It's settings control which apps can post messages to the upper-right corner of your display, as well as how those messages look. The Notification Center sidebar, which slides in from the right of your screen, gives you an overview of it all.

Have you set control Notifications' look? Individual notifications appear at the top-right of the screen. You can tweak how they appear, or whether they appear at all, on an app-by-app basis. Go to System Preferences > Notifications and select an app from the list at the left. Now set up the way that app will notify you at the right. You can pick from three Notification styles.

Cheers,
Ronni

Hi,
I’m still trying to resolve this corruption of (NC) Notification Centre.
NC operated well with El Capitan but is problematic with Sierra.

I think it is due to interference between Google and Apple mail accounts. I have tried turning them on and off alternately and the freezing of NC arises when email notices present to be either closed or replied to. If I try either of those options, nothing happens and the NC freezes for up to 20 seconds.
As long as these email notices don’t appear I can switch on NC.

BY THE WAY the email notices that appear are all from my gmail account.

I’m going to turn off gmail completely and access them from the website and see if that makes a difference.
If you have any other ideas, please feel free to let me know.


Cheers

Thanks Peter and Ronni,
I have an apple Bluetooth mouse only.
I have two gmail accounts and one iCloud account.
I will try turning off the gmail accounts and see if that helps.
Let you know ASAP.

Someone else may have problems with the Notification Centre since installing Sierra and had feedback that I missed.

Notifications appear as before on the RHS of the screen. These are mostly MAIL notifications.

Before installing Sierra with El Capitan all my apps worked well.

Now Notifications will not respond to mouse clicks and the system freezes for up to 15 seconds before responding.

I have tried disk doctor and looking for a solution in System prefs, but I’m stumped.

Any advice gratefully received



Everything is working fine on my system Marcus. Whatever else is going it’s unlikely to be a Sierra issue per se; more likely something else you have running that needs an update.The tried and true simple trouble shooting resource is to log into another account on your computer (create a new one if necessary) and see if the problem persists, just to rule out the possibility of something specific to your account.
