@herf Would it be possible to make the notification dismissable by a two-finger swipe to the right? Most notifications can be dismissed this way. For some reason, the flux one can't.

It sounds like another app is in conflict with it. Do you have Iris installed?

I have mid 2012 MacBook Pro, and I'm using the macOS High Sierra. When I moved the sliders nothing happens. I've tried custom colours and changing settings but nothing changes the screen colour temperature.

Yes, I have a similar issue on High Sierra, I'm told a fix deleting a file (credit to user bobzippymail). I know this is an olf thread but pretty high up on google so hopefully this helps someone.

Delete "backgrounditems.btm" file under this path, and then restart your mac.

/Users/$your_user/Library/Application Support/com.apple.backgroundtaskmanagementagent/backgrounditems.btm

My issue is similar that it flashes on for a second and then breaks and stays off. When I reboot it starts up and works fine, but then it'll turn off, usually triggered by pressing one of the function keys like volume, brightness etc.

If anyone has a fix for this PLEASE help me, I can't really live without flux :(:(

Oh also it seems that when it randomly turns back one for a second, it's triggered by moving the mouse, but I can't turn it on by moving the mouse, it's just occasionally (every 5-10 minutes?), moving the mouse flicks it on.

What happens if you open the f.lux menu to the left of your system clock? Are you able to access it? Can you quit from there? Pics of what I mean are here: https://justgetflux.com/news/pages/macquickstart/

If you're on a dual-GPU Macbook, I made a note in a related thread about disabling our ICC profile writer, which may help:

See if this stops the crashes?

I think this machine has two GPUs, so f.lux is writing an ICC profile every so often to avoid flashing when switching between GPUs. Assuming that this profile causes problems in the new macOS, let's try disabling that:

What you can do, from Terminal:

defaults write org.herf.Flux disableProfile 1

@crishoj Could you try reinstalling from the homepage (https://justgetflux.com)? We shipped a newer version (but have not updated everyone yet)

I have the exact same problem and can't find anything that solves it. It has been doing it for a couple of days straight now and always starts 'late' at night (after 9/10)

We are working on a version with more than two settings so we had to pull this out for a bit.

For now adjusting the "sunset" setting to be a bit stronger may help. When the sun's up, dimming your screen shouldn't make as big a difference.
