Notification center alert styles reset on restart

Hello everyone,
I couldn't find anybody else with the same issue, but since I upgraded to Yosemite my alert styles in the notification center keep on reseting every time I restart my computer. I hate these banners notifications, especially for Facebook and other social networks, so I keep on switching the alert style to None, but when I restart my computer, they are reset to Banners.
Any ideas how to fix this/what to do?
Thanks in advance.

Press cmd-r at boot. From disk utility repair permissions and retry. If the issue persists, reinstall from scratch... Same happened to a friend.

  • Change location of notification center alerts

    My notification alerts always appear on my Firefox browser tab at the top right corner!
    There is a place I can change the number of pixels from the top that I can lower it for about 20 pixels and it would be ok??
    I'm running Yosemite 10.10.1!

  • Applescript for alert styles in notification center

    I'd like to be able to have a sort of selected do not distrub for some apps. For example, during work hours I don't want Facebook to show alerts but when I'm off work, it would be great to switch the alert style.
    Can this be scheduled via AppleScript?
    Many thanks

  • Alert messages from Notification Center hang after using close button

    After opening my MacBook in the morning, Notification Center displays the alerts from my Calender (I realy like this new feature!).
    Problem
    When I click the Close Button on an Alert Message the Alert Message does not close but stops responding and stays displayed.
    The only way to get rid of it is to logout and login to OSX.
    Does anyone have the same problem?
    I am looking for a solution.
    All suggestions are welcome!
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    Uploaded with Skitch!
    As you can see the System Preferences > Notification Pane talks about "Alerts" in a general way first
    Then it offers options on how the Notifications are displayed.
    I was presuming you were talking about the Notifications in the same general way and I was asking which option you were using
    Since my first post in this thread I have changes my Mail Notifications to Alerts (It seems to be the one with more issue)
    It does hang around until I deal with it
    It then send me to Mail but the Incoming mail item(s) is(are) no longer marked  as unread.
    This makes it a little difficult to check the generic Inbox rthat has five Accounts set up.
    I am not getting a spinning beach Ball and the Alert Style Notification goes away.

  • 3rd party app alerts no longer show up in the notification center

    I upgraded my iPhone 5 to iOS7 last week and ever since alerts for 3rd party apps (like gmail and others) haven't been showing up in the notification center.  I've checked my settings for both the notification center and for my individual apps to make sure they weren't reset, made sure my apps were up to date (not all of them have had updates since iOS7 was released but some definitely have), tried toggling them on and off and rebooting, but so far nothing has helped.  The banner alerts work, but nothing pops up in the notifications.  Has anyone else experienced this or have any other ideas how to fix it?
    I've generally been pretty pleased with the new version of iOS, but I'm hating everything about the changes made to the notification center.  Even if I do get my notifications to work again, I hate that we're forced to have that "Today" tab even if you switch the summaries off!  I like the unified page from iOS6 much better.

    Hi cyn999!
    I have an article that can help address this question:
    iOS: Understanding notifications
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3576
    As you can see in the screenshot, the weather does show up in the notification center, but it is in text form instead of icon form in iOS 7. Thanks for coming to the Apple Support Communities!

  • How do I get Gmail to "ask permission to show alerts in Notification Center" ?

    In my Safari preferences, under notification settings, it says "These websites have asked for permission to show alerts in Notification Center." How do I get Gmail to prompt that. It used to be in there, but then I removed it to troubleshoot some notification center issues/.

    * click '''Firefox''' button and click '''Options''' -> Security panel -> Remove Checkmark from '''Remember Passwords for sites''' -> click OK
    OR
    * click '''Firefox''' button and click '''Options''' -> Security panel -> click '''Saved Passwords''' button -> select the http://login.gmail.com (or something relevant to gmail.com ) entry -> click '''Remove''' button -> click Close -> click OK
    -> Restart Firefox
    Check and tell if its working.

  • Settings for notification center constantly reset

    Hi,
    my Mac always resets the settings for the notification center. Sometimes this happens after a restart, more often after a crash.
    I couldn't find any solution for this via Google.
    Does anyone else have this problem and if so, have you found a solution?
    Thanks in advance.

    Back up all data.
    This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership, permissions, and access controls to the default. If you've intentionally set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it, but you do need to follow the instructions below.
    Step 1
    If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
    Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
    sudo find ~ $TMPDIR.. -exec chflags nouchg,nouappnd {} + -exec chown $UID {} + -exec chmod +rw {} + -exec chmod -N {} + -type d -exec chmod +x {} + 2>&-
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
    You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The command may take several minutes to run, depending on how many files you have. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
    Step 2 (optional)
    Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if you prefer not to take it, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
    Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
              Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
    Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select
               ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.

  • I pulled down the notification center, tapped the "tap to tweet" and my phone was jammed. It stayed that way for a minute then restart itself. Is there any way to fix it or at least give me an explanation

    Hi Abbie. You have every reason to be upset. These issues normally happen in our country. You can send them an email regarding your concern here:

    Regarding your battery, you can probably reset the SMC and see if that improves your battery life. Here are the steps.

  • No calendar alerts showing in ios7 notification center

    First, want to say this is different than the several threads stating that all day events are not showing. I have no calendar alerts at all in the all or missed tabs. I do see events for today in the today tab , but that's it. I have it set to show the alerts in both notification and lock screen, but it doesn't work. This is true on a 5s, a 4s and my ipad 4. I do run fantastical (also set to show up in the notification center) on the 5s and 4s, but obviously not on the ipad.  Based on what others have said, this seems to be somewhat unique to me. Any ideas?  I've already tried toggling on and off and restarting the phone.

    Try going to settings - notification center - and turn on Daily calendar view

  • Facebook and Mail both send banner alerts in notification center for every action on facebook

    So I added Facebook to my accounts in Settings.  Then I logged in to Facebook and modified my notification settings so that I would get the notifications I wanted.  Awesome. Works great.  Problem is, these notification settings in Facebook are tied directly to your email on file with facebook -- there's no way (at least that I saw) that allows you to disable getting email from FB, but allow OS X to pull in those same notification settings. 
    So now in Notification Center, everytime someone interacts with my Facebook, I get an alert from Facebook and an alert from Mac Mail that Facebook was alerting me.  Super redundant.
    Anyone find a way around the duplications?

    I'm also having this problem.
    Notifications receives alerts from Reminders app, but not Mail.
    I've set preferences in Mail for 'Inbox Only' and 'All Mailboxes', sent test mail from ISP webmail and Google (Mail is not setup to receive from this account) - still no notifications.
    I had previously used Growl (v1.4) and GrowlMail very successfully (with 10.7), but while upgrading to Mountain Lion I was informed that GrowlMail was incompatible so I deleted it.
    While testing this problem of not receiving Mail Notifications I have disabled Growl and rebooted.
    Like others here:
    Checked: Notifications setup
    Checked: Mail setup
    Rebuilt permissions
    Rebooted
    Any help would be very gratefully received.
    Many thanks.

  • I need help none of my notifications are coming to my iphone 4 and in the notification center everything is turned on i reset and restored my phone but it's still not working i need help with this asap

    Hi R. Weav27,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  This article has some troubleshooting steps for issues with push notifications:
    iOS: Understanding notifications
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3576
    Troubleshooting notifications
    Push notifications require an active Wi-Fi or cellular connection.
    Note: Notifications use Wi-Fi only when a cellular connection is unavailable. Firewalls and proxy servers may affect your ability to receive notifications. For more information, see Unable to use Apple Push Notification service (APNs).
    If you're not receiving notifications for a specific app, try these steps:
    Verify that the app supports notifications.
    After installing an app or restoring a backup to a different iOS device, open the app to begin receiving notifications. If the app requires entering or logging in to an account, you will need to do this before receiving notifications.
    Check Settings > Notification Center to ensure that the app is configured for notifications. If notifications do not appear in the Notification Center, verify that the Notification Center setting for the app is enabled.
    Cheers,
    - Ari

  • Notification settings on iPad 3 are set properly but my new IPad does not get alert badges or rounds on apps with all notifications selected and in notifications center.  Why?  Others are reporting same problem.

    i just bought the new iPad and even though notifications are set exactly the same for mail and my app is turned on and in the Notifications Center and alerts and sounds selected for mail and apps only my iPad 2 is working.  No alerts on iPad 3.  I see other posts with same problem.  Any suggestions or posts re same problem will be appreciated before I return to Apple Store for help.  thanks.

    Do you have system sounds muted?  Check the button above your volume control on the right hand side of the iPad.  If, when you change the button you see mute on your screen, you'll restore system sounds.  If you see lock orientation, you can restore system sounds by double tapping your home button to bring up the task bar (most recently used apps).  With your finger swipe those apps all the way to the right to reveal a mute icon on the left.  Touch that icon and you'll restore system sounds. 
    Let us know if that was the issue.

  • Email alerts not displaying in notification center on lock screen (iOS 7)

    Hi,
    I am having issues receiving email alerts in the Notification Center when accessed from the lock screen.  I don't want to see the alert directly on the lock screen, only in the notification center.  Here are my settings:
    So basically, the Notification Center is allowed on the lock screen, but the alert itself will not be displayed on the lock screen.  However, when I get a new email, it does not display an alert.  If I unlock the phone, and check the Notification Center, the alert is there.  If I turn the "Show on Lock Screen" setting on, then I do in fact get the alert both on the lock screen and the notification center.  What is really weird is that if I check the Notificaiton Center from the lock screen (where nothing is displayed), and then unlock the phone the alert is no longer in the Notification Center, as if I had already accessed it. 
    What is also strange is that these exact settings work perfectly fine for texts and fairly consistently for my personal email.  However, it has never worked for my work (Exchange) email.  In both cases I am using Push. 
    Is anyone else able to replicate this issue, or do you have a solution?
    Thanks,
    Aaron

  • How can i reset my notification center preferences?

    How can i reset my notification center preferences and settings without doing a full reset?

    Many thanks,

    I am trying to reset all the settings under the menu 'Settings > Notification Center'.
    For example if i customised the Mail notifications so that it didn't display an update when i got an email, i would like to reset this. However i don't want to have to manually reset each app which i customised the notification settings for induvidually.
