Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
I just upgraded to OSX Mavericks, my Messages app works but I never get any notifications from Notification center about it. All options for Messages in the notification options are enabled though. Any help would be appreciated.
MacBook Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9)
I likewise installed Mavericks two days ago, and have encountered a number of problems, some more serious than others.
As with Dr. Blair, notifications from the Messages app have suddenly stopped working. In other words, if someone sends me a message while I am in an app other than Messages, a notification of their message arriving is not appearing in the top right corner of my screen.
If anyone has found a solution to this problem, please advise.
Thank you very much.
Using following steps, you can get the "NotificationCenter" in your desktop.
launchctl load -w /System/Library/LaunchAgents /com.apple.notificationcenterui.plist
3. Press the enter button.
Now, you can see the NotificationCenter icon in your desktop.
Hi there,
I am missing the file
/System/Library/LaunchAgents/com.apple.soagent.plist
Could I get that file from you also?
Thanks!
I have this problem too. None of the solutions in this thread have helped unfortunately. I'm guessing some program I have is interferring with them.
Mine weren't working either. Then I realized I had Do Not Disturb on. 😊
It seems that for me Apple tried to solve a potential problem and instead created a bigger one.
I had been using notifications with Messages and all of a sudden the notifications stopped. Like many others I started looking for a solution but was getting nowhere. By accident I decided to look on the notifications list on the menu bar and right there was the answer.
I recently got a new HDMI monitor for my Mac Mini. I connected a second TV / Monitor to the display port. Apple automatically assumed that I wanted this second monitor mirrored and I am guessing Apple's logical assumption is that you are using it for a presentation. When it does that, it chooses to disable notifications by turning on Do Not Disturb. When you go to the notification list, that option does not appear immediately but if you scroll backwards on the notification list you will see a Do Not Disturb On / Off switch.
Turning that off did not make it work immediately. I had to restart the Messages App.
It could have been implemented more effectively and elegantly.
Unfortunately this took a significant amount of time to figure out. It may be the solution for a lot of others I hope.
