Q: Notification Centre does not Remember Settings

Same issues here.  Surprised this isn't a bigger known issue and hasn't gotten out in the media yet.  So annoying.

Exact same issue on mid-2013 MB Air. Thought I was going mad.

The article at this link provided a solution that worked for me.

WORKED!!  Thank you!!!!!!

Didn't work for me as I don't have a NotificationCenter folder in the Application Support folder.

Worked for me but one question:

Do I need to keep the folder I dragged to the desktop or can I get rid of it? Do I need to put it back where it came from?

Great!

This (finally) worked for me as well!

I just deleted it

Sent from my iPhone

This worked for me too. Thanks for passing that along. I did notice that a new folder named Notification Center was never regenerated in the Library/Application Support folder.

Same problem here. Looking for an official fix.

I have the same problem.

 

Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

Where do I submit feedback?

This solution worked for me. Thank you!

The fix given above is not quite correct http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1803815 as the Library/Applications Support/ folder is in most cases hidden.

To find it you click to the GO menu and hold down the Option key and voila a Library folder will appear. Click on that and you will find the Library/Applications Support/ folder which has the NotificationsCenter folder which you can then drag to the desktop.

So the updated fix is:

Here are the instructions I got from AppleCare from an Apple Engineer. I'm not sure if the fix was specifically for my machine or if it'll work for someone else. Follow at your own risk.

1. Open the Library folder in your Home folder (Use Option GO Menu and open Library - otherwise it is hidden).

2. In the now open Library folder, open the Application Support folder.

3. Locate the folder named NotificationCenter. Drag this folder to the desktop.

4. Next, open the Terminal application.

Copy and paste each line of these commands into the Terminal window, in order. Press Return after each line:

cd `getconf DARWIN_USER_DIR`

rm -rf com.apple.notificationcenter

killall usernoted; killall NotificationCenter

5. Close the Terminal app.

6. Restart your computer.

The notification preference changes won't stick until you restart a 2nd time after this.

You can then delete the NotificationCenter folder on the desktop.

Thanks a lot jgfidel - this worked for me!

also kudus to bahamas1 from the macrumors forum for finding/posting this solution!

Hint: to get to the "hidden" user Library folder try to following "command" in the Terminal:

open $HOME/Library/Application\ Support/

this should open the Application Support folder in the Finder for you to see - so you can drag out/(re)move the Notification folder,

and follow the commands and instructions as posted on the macrumors forum or as reposted by BlossOz.

best and good luck to everyone suffering from this "feature",

Same issue. Will try the link to the proposed solution in this thread.
