Tahoe not updating clocks on secondary displays?

:arrow_right: Has anyone else noticed that secondary displays—any display that hasn’t been clicked on recently—don’t update the menu bar clocks (running macOS Tahoe 26.2)? :arrow_left:

It’s a bit disconcerting to see three different times, one on each display… Not sure if it’s a macOS thing, or some third party software I’ve got running. I don’t have any menubar managers running though, so I feel like it’s macOS.

I should get Keyboard Maestro to click on each additional screen once every 5 minutes… I shouldn’t have to but could be useful in the interim.

I’d noticed this one. Kind of fun as a focusing high score!

Yup - I’ve seen it too. Thought it was just mine playing up

Lol. Just restarted my computer after turning off the “Displays have separate Spaces” as requested by Apple Support. It fixes the clock issue… by removing the menubar from all connected displays. Not quite what I was looking for - back to square 1.

I don’t see that happening, but I’m on 26.3 Beta. So there may be hope for you.
