I have 2 identical 2017 Macbook Pros and this is happening now to both of them daily after upgrading to Ventura. Reboot fixes, but it's a pain.

Hi man, I have a Macbook Pro 16-inch 2019, I was using the Touchbar just fine, but after I updated to MacOS Sonoma for a couple of days, the touchbar was just gone, however, I am still able to use it but it is not showing but, the touch and function working alright. Would it be a software problem or a hardware problem related to the display connection? Thanks

Thank you so much. Your comments were extremely helpful. I restarted the computer and the problem was fixed. Prior to watching your video, i had read all kinds of more complicated instructions that were confusing me like anything and making it seem like a hopeless case. All gratitude to you sir. :-)

This morning I had 16" 2019 Intel MacBook Pro with a perfectly fine TouchBar. I updated to Sonoma a few hours ago and since then have not been able to get the TouchBar to light up. It does work, as I can kinda guess where the icons should be and adjust the Mac's brightness and volume, but the TouchBar remains pitch black. I also tried the SMC reset, the PRAM reset and the Kill commands in the terminal, but nothing has worked.

So no, I believe it is not a hardware issue, cause it was perfectly fine just before updating the OS. Unless the software update in some way physically cripples the hardware. Like sending incorrect voltage or something.

Perhaps there are not enough users with this issue for Apple to take notice, which makes me wonder if it is either a "chance" or lottery thing during Sonoma's installation process, or a rare combination of factors that only a small group of users share, or if indeed this is affecting all TouchBar users under Sonoma but only a few are posting about it. If that were the case, it is a major fail that a heavily touted functionality like the TouchBar is crippled by an OS update that remains unfixed as long as it has.
