Hi Ronni, Great but I’ve not attempted to work in terminal before. I found the app and opened it. the text “Marcus-F-Harris-iMac27:~ cryptodomus$ “.appears. Do I then delete this and enter the instructions you sent “killall NotificationCenter” ? Or do I open a new window? Then what? Hate to stuff up in terminal. Cheers Marcus
