The path of the program appears to be /Library/KFBKVGZz/KFBKVGZz.app/Contents/MacOS/KFBKVGZz

You can go to /Library (Accessible by going to Finder -> Go -> Go to Folder) and delete that app.

Edit: Looked up some other stuff, appears to be malware. Delete it, I'd also run a malware scan from a reputable source (my personal choice is Malwarebytes @ https://www.malwarebytes.com) to remove any other nefarious apps...

thank you. it helped :)
 
Blank gap on loading OS. I own a Macbook Air 2015. I upgraded to Mojave and while loading the os, the screen goes blank for 1 second and then it continues to load. At this time, the keyboard illuminates as usual.

Is this a bug?
 
Mojave 10.14.1 Beta 3, there are still video glitches in Safari, try watching videos from apple.developer with subtitles, turn them off and on, and you´ll see the video stretch vertically for a second.

Anyone else able to add an internet account and not have it removed? In particular I am adding an Exchange account using the Microsoft login option. After a few minutes with it open in Mail, the account disappears without an error.

I've reported this to Apple already.

Have you heard of any fix for this yet?

Not any help here but I am having the same issue. Don’t have a clue how to resolve or where to turn for assistance. TM backup hangs at Pteparing Backup.

I am talking to Seagate CS right now so hopefully they can fix it and I will pass on any info I get.

So apparently Apple, according to Seagate CS, will be issuing an update for Time Machine in Mojave that will correct this situation. Just need to wait, I guess. I hope this update will work with other external hard drives since my Lacie Quadra does the same thing. Hope this helps.

Thank you! :) Will just have to wait and see.
 
Anyone seeing this one:

Using 10.14.1 b3 when using DuckDuckGo as search provider in Safari...

1. Hit command + L to access the search bar
2. Enter any search string and hit enter
3. DuckDuckGo search results appear appropriately, but the search bar continues to stay active with quick suggestions being displayed

Switching to google as my search provider does not cause this issue.
 
10.14.0 Horrible contrast of initial "Search" text against the dark background, to the point of it being almost unreadable.

Has this been fixed in beta?

You're using some sort of theme and that is most definitely the issue. I've never seen that on any of the betas and it it certainly not present in the GM.
 
Keychain seems to be broken on some websites, when I try to change or set a password sometimes the user ID is blank especially on forms where you are asked to type your old password and/or the new one twice. I think it has to do with autofill as I had to turn it off and get a temporary password from the site devs.
 
My MacBook Retina is updated to the latest OS and works OK but I've noticed each time I open a new tab in Safari, half the new tab flashes up in orange and yellow lines quickly (less than 1 second). It then works like normal.
I don't think it's a screen issue because the yellow/orange only appears in the new tab, not in my Bookmarks Sidebar.
 
drag n drop link from address bar in safari not working, i'm using this for saving link to sidebar, but dragging from favicon working
 
To those who did a clean install of Mojave - I think I may have found a bug.

In Messages and FaceTime, go to "Preferences" then "Blocked". Does it show your blocked numbers? It did when I was beta testing but does not after I did a clean install on my iMac. It doesn't list anything, but they are still on my iPhone. Does this mean blocked FaceTimes or messages can come through?
 
So far the biggest ones I've come across:

- Unable to send text messages to anyone if they don't have an iPhone

- The System Preferences app is horribly buggy. Constantly freezes, drop-down menus don't work.

- I don't know if this is a bug or not, but I haven't had a single app need updating since Mojave launched. And I have auto-updates turned off


Side note, not a bug, but the screen that had all the widgets on it. I miss it :(

messages works fine here, check your settings, or google the issue. system preferences, also fine here. might be worth reinstalling the OS... or, try moving com.apple.systempreferences.plist (from the user library preferences folder) to the desktop, then rebooting (you may have to re-do some settings); if that fixes it, you can delete that file from the desktop.

No luck on iMessage. Just installed the OS again. It's still not syncing non-iPhone messages nor is it sending any to non-iPhones. I get a "Message was not delivered" thing. Every single option box is checked in the iMessage preferences on the iMessage tab.

Do you mean the "Dashboard"? Simply turn it on in Mission Control preferences panel.

Why the hell was is not checked in the first place?!?!? Thank you.
 
Anyone else having problems using Time Machine to create back ups? Neither my Lacie Quadra or Seagate Back Up Plus are working since upgrading to Mojave. Back up starts but never finishes. Seagate says it's a Mojave problem. Curious what people are seeing. Thanks.

Well I've made several backups with no problems - I have a WD Elements external disk if that helps.

Thanks for the reply. The more I search, the more wide-spread this problem seems to be. People have posted workarounds but nothing from Apple yet.
