So I updated MacOS Sequoia today to my Mac Pro 2020, and my touch bar is gone! Its black! It's not even showing up under the keyboard. Its nowhere to be found. Can someone please help me with this?

On an M-series Mac— for software issue

The best you can do if you have an issue— equivalent Shut down, close the lid 30 secs+ , reboot as normal.

If no resolve try SafeBoot to sort anomalies Use safe mode on your Mac - Apple Support

I did that and also updated my apps and after that, it just popped up and now shows up under the keyboard. 🤷🏻‍♀️ just happy its back up and working

Good computing katiria224 !

After I updated to sequoia like 1 week ago, my touch bar was gone.

Then I did a new update yesterday and the problem was fixed.

Now, after not even 24 hours the touch bar is gone again, and with it even the touch bar options within the settings menu. So like if it wasn't even installed... Can somebody tell me please how to fix it, or, what would be even better:

Could Apple engineers please try out their upgrades on all models before releasing them???

Thank you all in advance,

I constantly have this issue, and when closing the lid for 30s and re-open, as the solution suggests, resolved this.

There's also a weird flashing of the touch bar when I open the lid.

Is this going to be resolved any time soon?

Same problem here after updating Mac Pro 2020 to MacOS Sequoia

Same mine is not working. I can’t start up

How did you do that?

Can you tell me or send me your iMessage ID. So I can text you or Instagram please

with the power cable attached or not??

I had the power cable attached, but I think the key here is the 30s.

All these things didn't work for me up to now... Where's an apple support?? Why are they not sending an update to fix this problem? I am really angry...

My Student is currently coding a workaround for this. He is making it so The Touch Bar will work 24/7
