No widgets in Yosemite notification center

I can only view the weather in the notification center. The only other widget that can be enabled is Social. I had stocks, calendar, and the calculator all working with Public Beta 6. Does anyone else have this issue or know how to fix it?

I'm using a Mid-2012 Macbook Pro - I didn't install any of the PB's and I'd lost the notification widgets and the social sharing options. Managed to get the notification widgets working again, bar the social one using the information in this thread. It works on the guest accounts and I'm contemplating migrating to a new user account to just have stuff that works.


This is what I'm getting below, and I get this when I run the similar notifications widget file. I don't understand what this means, but I'm guessing "cannot execute binary file" is the issue. Anyone found a fix for this?

What worked for me, was adding the widgets via the simulator in the resources window. Then in the Today view pane, I removed the widgets one by one. Then repaired and verified disk permissions. Do a restart and you should see the widgets in the edit pane of the Today view. Add the widgets and even after a restart they should still be there, at least for me they were still there.


Steps:

1.) Add widgets via the simulator in NotificationCenter.Framework

2.) Remove them from the Today view main pain

3.) Repair and Verify Disk Permissions (not sure if this is really necessary)

4.) Restart and everything should still be working (hopefully)


Hope they come up with a fix for this soon. No comment on the Social Widget LOL

My Social Widgets are working, fixed it whilst fixing the Safari Share menu issue


I went to :

/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/ShareKit.framework/Versions/A/PlugIns/

Clicked on each plugin in turn opening with the Widget Simulator ignoring the error message and they were all appearing in the menus, both in the System Preferences > Extensions and the Safari Share Menu. I've restarted and they are all still there and yes, I tried the Facebook one and it worked
