Dock icons are not bouncing

[itai]

Since upgrading to Yosemite none of my dock icons are bouncing upon receiving notifications. Has anyone else been experiencing this issue and / or may know of how to fix this?

Have you looked inside the Dock section of the control panel? There should be a bouncing toggle option there.

See attached, unfortunately there is not...

Hm... "Animate apps" checkbox doesn't do what you want?

If not, then I don't know the answer.

No it does not thanks though.

This is purely a guess but it may be worth trying:

"Animate Opening Applications" is currently not ticked.
When this is ticked opening applications bounce. So maybe if this is turned on so too will be bounce with application notification.

Hope that helps.

P.S. Sorry I somehow missed that this has already been suggested and did not work. Silly me needs some sleep!

force-quit the Finder? and/or you could try resetting the dock. in terminal:

Killall Dock

not sure these things will help...but first things i would try.

Thanks, but this one did not help either...

Make sure you haven't disabled the dock bouncing when apps require your attention. Paste this in the terminal:

defaults write com.apple.dock no-bouncing -bool FALSE && killall Dock

I noticed my dock icons are also not bouncing, and tried executing the above code with no success. A reboot also did not fix the problem. Weird.

Same problem here. Does anyone has a solution?

A couple things to try:

• Repair permissions in Disk Utility and reboot. Issue still happen in your user account?
• Create a new user, login to the new user and see if the issue happens.
