Touch Bar Control Strip part does not display anything
Hi every one ! I have next problem:
MacBook Pro 15" 2017/ Monterey 12.4
Touch Bar displays only the left four buttons.The Control Strip does not display anything, but it is sensitive to touch.In System Preferences- Keyboard is set:
-adjust keyboard brightness in low light
-touch bar shows “App. Controls”
-Shows Control Strip
-Press fn key to “ Do nothing”
- Press and hold fn key to “ Expand control strip “
What I've tried:
1. Restart.
2. Force Stop Apps
3. Force Stop App on Mac Using the Force Quit Tool
4. Force Stop App on Mac using Activity Monitor
5. Refresh
the Control Strip via Activity Monitor ( at one point Control Strip no longer appeared in Activity monitor)
6 Refresh the Control Strip via Terminal (killall ControlStrip)
7. Refresh Touch Bar Using Terminal
8 Checked Touch Bar Display Settings
9 Reset Touch Bar app preferences and cache files (I do not find Library/Preferences/ apple.touchbar.agent.plist)
10 Reset SMC (press and hold the Shift, Option, and Control keys on the left side and
press the power button and hold all of these down for 10 seconds, then release
the keys.)
and NVRAM ( Press
the power button, and as soon as you power up the laptop, hold down
Command-Option-P-R. and keep holding down those keys for about 20 seconds).
11 Restart MacBook
12 Repair Mac’s Drive (cu Disk Utility).
13 Update macOS
14 Reinstall. macOS
Interesting is that if I take a picture of Touch Bar (Shift + Command +
6) the buttons appear on shot that I can't see on the Control Strip display.
I suspect the flaw occurred during Big Sur upgrades. I'm thinking to restore the mac to the factory state.
Please give me some advice, what else I could try. I appreciate any idea. Thanks.
MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 12.4
