Now and then Freedome shows its  inactive menu bar icon (icon with backslash) , even if both the menu and the Freedome app says that protection is “ON”. Bug or feature?

  • Hi fereous,

     

    Did the issue occur with the previous OS version or only with OS X 10.11.3? Does the Freedome menu bar icon remain like this all the time or only for a short time?

     

    Does it happen during a particular time like after restart or after waking from sleep, etc?

    Had the same issue with the previous version of OS X (10.11.2). Don’t think I ever used Freedome with any earlier versions. The Freedome icon reverts to active when switching to another location, when on/off is toggled, and after a boot/restart.

     

    Though it occurs every day, I have yet to figure out if any special event is connected to the Freedome icon going inactive. Owing to a looming deadline I’m currently chained to the computer, and so just happen to notice the changed icon state from time to time.

    All quiet on the support front; no answer yet to my support ticket. Maybe I’m the only person in the world with this problem – a rather chilling thought.
