Notification Center greyed out

I'm running Mountain Lion 10.8.4 and have a problem where the notification center greys out occasionally and is unusable.
The only way to get it back I have found is to restart the machine or quit the process in Activity Monitor (which is still running when the problem occurs)...
I cant think why this is happening - are there any logs I can get into to see what is happening? or anything else helpful?
Thanks

If applicable, sign out of iCloud in the iCloud preference pane. Leave the preference pane open.
Back up all data.
Triple-click the line below to select it:
~/Library/Application Support/NotificationCenter
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu. A Finder window should open with a folder named "NotificationCenter" selected. If it does, move the selected folder to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Log out and log back in.
Sign back in to iCloud, if you signed out. Test. If there's no change, or if the notifications you expect to see are not shown, sign out of iCloud again and put the folder you moved back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Log out and in again. Otherwise, delete the folder you moved.

  • Notification center "grayed out" and will not open. Any ideas on how to fix?

    I purchased Mountain Lion this morning and updated from Lion. Everything worked smoothly. As I was looking through various new features, I see that Notification Center is "grayed out" and won't let me open it.
    When I go to System Settings, Notifications is there, and will let me go in and make changes. There's no indications that it shouldn't work.
    Mid-2007 iMac, 4GB RAM, 2.8ghz Extreme.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Little late to the party on this, but I was having the same issue. My notification center icon was greyed out and nothing happened when I clicked on it.
    Here is the fix that worked for me.
    Found the following folder:
    ~/Library/Application Support/NotificationCenter
    Inside it were two files. Presumably there should only be one.
    The first was
    XXXXXX.db
    Where "X" was a series of numbers.
    The second was
    XXXXXX.corrupt
    I deleted the file with the corrupt extension and emptied the trash. Then went to activity monitor and force quite the Notification Center process. This caused it to restart and everything was back to normal.
    Hope that helps.

  • Window Intune Center greyed out

    Hello We are currently trialling Windows Intune and Kaspersky (as Windows Intune does not work on servers) and I have 2 issues.
    1. When right clicking on the Intune agent icon in in taskbar the Windows Intune Center option is greyed out this means users will have to go to Start - All Programs - Windows Intune Center to be able to install applications, request support etc.
    2. Since installing Kaspersky Windows Intune portal says that my laptop has not contacted it in "nDays" I have checked Kaspersky settings etc and cannot see anything wrong. I've even tried disabling Kaspersky and seeing if that makes a difference
    but it doesn't. Has anyone got any experience using Intune and Kaspersky or another AV solution?

    I know this is old but I’m trying to clean up old posts. Did you ever solve this? If so it would be good if you could post the solution to assist others. If not, at this stage,
    as nobody has answered, I would recommend that you call Intune support.
    You will find your local Intune support number here

  • How to change Mission Control and Notification Center grey background on Mavericks?

    Has anyone found a solution that works, to this day?
    I've been able to change the login, dashboard and launchpad backgrounds (launchpad I actually only un-blurred with OnyX)...so they now all look like my desktop wallpaper.
    But I can't manage to find an actual solution for MC and NC, yet. It would be nice if Notification Center could be even just black or maybe restored to linen, don't know, but not that ugly *** grey!
    Does anyone have any new tips?
    Or is it true that the MC grey backgroud is done with code, therefore not changeable? Seriously hope not!
    Thank you.

  • IOS 8.1.1 Notification Center stretched out

    Hello Apple Community!!!  I've ran into an issue.  I'm on my iPhone 6+ with iOS 8.1.1.  My notification center has decided to stretch out and not display properly. If in portrait mode it looks as if it's in landscape mode and drops half way down the screen.  So I turn the phone into landscape mode thinking its "stuck" and it looks the same.  I've tried a restore and reboot to no avail it's still an issue.  Does anyone have a solution?  Thanks!

    I'm in Standard view mode. Here's a screen shot supporting and a screen shot of how the Notification Center looks in landscape mode.

  • Applications with two deployment types makes uninstall button in software center "greyed" out.

    Hi
    SCCM 2012 R2 running on Windows server 2012 with Windows 7 clients.
    We are publishing applications to users that are available (not required), so that they can be downloaded from the application catalog web site. We have som applications that needs more then one deployment type (different pre requirements depending
    on OS architecture) and when I create two deployment types for one Application the uninstall button in Software center is greyed out? If i remove one of the deployment types so there is just one, well then the Uninstall button is available again.
    An example is Itunes. I publish one Itunes application to the store that has two deployment types, one for X86 and another for X64 with requirments on OS architetcure. the correct version gets installed but the uninstall button is not possible to use. If
    i remove one of the deployment types then the deployment button is not greyed out.
    Is this a bug?
    Thanks everyone. 

    We will be installing CU3 this Friday. During the next week or so, I will deploy the CU3 client to the workstations.
    I do not believe that the uninstall button issue will be addressed with this update either, according to what I have read so far.
    If, by some small yet profound miracle, my uninstall button regains full functionality, I will gladly let all of you know.
    I would hope that Microsoft would address this issue seriously, as I am sure the rumblings of dissatisfaction are beginning to grow louder with each passing CU that ignores the problem.

  • Why are the notifications in the notification center always out of date?

    The 'today' section of the notification center is always up-to-date, but when I check the 'notification' section, the emails and messages are always days old. In System Preferences, I have emails and messages set to show up as banners, which they do, and for 5 recent items to show in notification center, which does not happen. Do I need to set something so that older emails/messages are replaced by newer ones?

  • Notification options are greyed out!!

    Dear Expert,
    When I directly goto Transaction QA11 -> Menu-> Inspection processing -
    > Notification----> worklist/creation/change/display, then I am able to use all the Notification options.
    But if I directly goto Transaction QE51N and double click the Inspection lot number in the left side of this screen, it takes me to the "Record Usage Decision: Characteristics Overview" of QA11 screen, Where I goto menu-->Inspection pocessing->Notification--->worklist/create/change/display, the options worklist/create/change/display are greyed out, I need to enable them.
    Thanks in advance for your help!!!

    Hello,
    I dont think you can enable this. You can generate notification by defect recording and intiating notification in QA11.

    My iPhone Wifi is greyed out.
    In Uruguay in Cellular Center (+598 2 903 3333) that is where I buyed it told me it has no solution, it´s a problem of hardware accepted by Apple, that Apple change the phone in this cases, but that they can´t change it by another new one because their warrantee is 3 months and I bought in december, 2012. It cost me US$ 1,250 and I want a solution because I saw in the Apple web that iPhone warrantee is 1 year and I am still covered by it.
    I have the invoice dated December 24, 2012.
    Do you have any solution to my problem?
    It is hard to believe that a so expensive iPhone has a life of 6 months.
    Do I need to take my iPhone to anywhere they can solve its problem?

    As I can't see any complicated scenario in your requirement. So I suggest you can achieve this by simple standard configuration.
    Go to OME9, double click on the Account assignment category and make the field as Display.
    Then check in your PO.
    But I doubt, your requirement can not be simple like that.
    So either you didn't know the settings or your requirement is different or you are just trying to learn that can it be possible via coding.
    Let us know the appropriate reason for set it as display.

  • EPT on New project option at project center are all Greyed out

    Hello, 
    We have a problem with only 2 users within the PWA. They can not create new projects. When they click the New button on the project center, all EPTs are gray. 
    We think it was a issue with the permissions. So, we removed all the groups from the users and assign again, but the problem persisted. For other users with the same permission there are no problems. 
    Furthermore, we tested with the same user on other computers, and the problem persists. We believe it's tied to the user. 
    We are using Project Server 2010. 
    If more information is needed, please let me know.
    Tks!

    Hi Alessandro,
    If it was an issue about the permissions, the "new" button would be greyed out preventing users to click on it and seeing the EPT list. If they can click on "new" but only the EPTs are greyed out, then it is another issue..
    Are the users part of a department? Have you associated EPT with departments?
    Hope this helps,

  • Trying to email database backup notification, boxes are greyed out

    Hi all,
    I am running OEM Grid Control version 10.2.0.3.0. I have properly setup an SMTP server, with all of the notification rules, and it all works fine, as far as notifying me when a database is down, tablespace gets full, etc...
    However, for some reason, I can't get it to send an email notifcation from a db backup job. I have an existing job, that does a full backup of a 9.2 database, and it all works fine. But now when I go in and edit the job, then click on the Access tab, at the bottom I see the "Email notification for owner" section, and I see the 5 boxes that could be checked, Scheduled, Running, Suspended, Completed, Problems. But all of the checkboxes are greyed out - I can't check any of them. Does anyone know why this might be? I thought it might be because this is backing up a 9i database, but then I went and checked for my backup jobs against 10g databases, and I see the same issue. I am the owner of all of these jobs, and I am a "Super Administrator", so I don't know what else to check...
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks!!

    Hi all,
    Just wanted to update this issue, in case anyone was interested. I ended up logging an SR with Oracle, and got a reply back that this is a known issue, here's what they said:
    This is a known issue. I assume here you've gone into the database pages and scheduled a b
    ackup job from there, then when you look in the jobs tab you cannot edit the not
    ifications for the job. You cannot edit the notifications for this type of job.
    Here is what you can do:
    1. Go to your Database --> Maintenance --> Schedule Backup
    2. Work through the backup wizard until the review page.
    3. Copy the RMAN script from this page.
    4. Click on the Jobs tab --> Create Job "RMAN Script" --> Go
    5. Paste the copied script from 3. under the parameters tab.
    6. Go to the Access tab and you will now be able to set E-Mail Notification for Owner

  • Software Center Application Uninstallation Button Greyed Out and Deploying an Application with Uninstall switch Fails

    Hi,
    I tried everything I could find on the internet but no luck so far. I can successfully deploy MS Visio 2013 to the clients. I also want to be able to uninstall it from the clients. On the client machine Uninstall button is greyed out. This deployment is
    installed as "Available" and there is only one deployment type within that MS Visio 2013 Application.
    I tried the following uninstall commands in my deployment:
    setup.exe /uninstall
    setup.exe /uninstall
    VisPro
    /config .\vispro.ww\uninstallvisio.xml
    “\\SRVSCCM2012\Sources\MSApplications\MSVisioPro_2013_64Bit_ENG\setup.exe” /uninstall VisPro /config "\\SRVSCCM2012\Sources\MSApplications\MSVisioPro_2013_64Bit_ENG\vispro.ww\uninstallvisio.xml"
    \\SRVSCCM2012\Sources\MSApplications\MSVisioPro_2013_64Bit_ENG\setup.exe /uninstall VisPro /config \\SRVSCCM2012\Sources\MSApplications\MSVisioPro_2013_64Bit_ENG\vispro.ww\uninstallvisio.xml
    I checked Product ID from Setup.xml and I know it is correct. My uninstallvisio.xml' content is below:
    <Configuration Product="VisPro">
    <Display Level="basic" CompletionNotice="yes" SuppressModal="yes" AcceptEula="yes" />
    <Setting Id="SETUP_REBOOT" Value="Never" />
    </Configuration>
    Last night, I downloaded and installed Cumulative Update 1 for SCCM 2012 R2 and I haven't tried the deployment after the update,yet. I will try it today but please let me know what else to check.
    Yavuz Selim Atmaca

    After I updated SCCM Server and test client pc with CU1 , I tried to deploy visio as Required. It installed successfully. Then I uninstalled visio by deploying the application with Uninstall Action.
    After that I tried to deploy visio as "Available" to see if Software Center Uninstall button works. However visio deployment does not come to Software Center's Available Applications List. I check the status of the deployment under the Deployments monitoring
    node and it says Success "Already Compliant". I dont know what it means. Does config manager thinks that visio already installed?
    Yavuz Selim Atmaca
    2 or 3 hours later that -Succes "Already Compliant"- status of the deployment under the Deployments monitoring node is vanished automatically and Software Center application list showed the new deployment. I installed it and  uninstalled it succesfully.
    So, you are right Solution is the CU1 but I am still wondering why my available deployment took so time to be visible in Software Center althought I didn't enter any schedule to be available.

  • App Notifications Greyed Out

    Hi,
    I recently noticed that I am getting no App Notifications (Toasts) in the top right of my main screen. On a closer look, I noticed that all the settings are greyed out and a notice stating: Some settings are managed by your administrator. I've never seen this
    issue before.
    This is just a home PC running Windows 8.1 Pro. Not connected to any domain. 
    Also, on the main start screen, the first app has a weird grey border around it:
    Any help with fixing this would be great.
    Thanks.
    M Knight.
    Michael

    OK, I have fixed all issues. Took me a while but they are fixed.
    After the terrible Windows 8.1 Update 2 sort of really messed things up, I was left with no choice than to do a complete format. On re-installation from my Windows 8.1 DVD and most of the basic applications, I noticed that I was getting the same issues, though
    Microsoft have pulled Update 2
    KB2982791.
    At first I thought it may be because my settings were saved on my OneDrive account and that the downloaded settings may have included something from my previous problems or that the actual backup could be corrupted. So I deleted the backups and reset my system.
    Still no change. I was so frustrated and I thought forget this so I decided to start getting my applications set up how I like them. So, I came to Bitdefender Total Security 2015 to set a few things up and I noticed that they have this new option called Profiles.
    So I looked at them and their settings and low and behold, I had found what has been causing me so much trouble.
    The profiles disable or turn off many of Windows automated features, supposedly to improve performance. So I disabled all the options and switched off the profiles. Everything is back to normal now and working great.
    So, if you happen to use any Bitdefender 2015 products, disable this option. I contacted their support and told them of the issues as nothing in their documentation warns of what may happen from using the profiles.
    So, problem solved.
    Thanks to everyone who tried to help.
    Mike.
