    Dark Mode Not Working 100%

    I always use dark mode. I just installed Sonoma and when everything booted up, all my apps are showing in dark mode, but the mac's main system menu bar is still white. I have toggled on light mode and dark mode, restarted the mac and nothing has helped. Any ideas?

    Uninstall NightOwl. Now

    If you've installed (or continued to use) the NightOwl app since its purchase by "new owners" last year, do yourself a favor and uninstall it completely and immediately.

    Switch background image depending on Light or Dark Mode on Win 11?

    I am using Windows 11 as a VM on a number of systems. I use Auto Dark to toggle Light/Dark mode depending on the time of day same as I do on macOS. I have not found a way to tie a particular background to a mode that switches with it. Has anybody figured this out?

    Can’t choose a Lock Screen without focus changing it back???

    So it turns out that if you have more than one Lock Screen and choose any of them besides the first one, it will automatically revert to the first one every time you switch focus on or off.

    I like and use Dark Mode in general. I also use Mac Mail's Dark Mode for message panels as well.

But the way all of them seem to work is Dark Mode needs to be turned...
