It dawns on me that 'until now' is used only if the sentence signals a change of state from then on.

Did I understand the proper meaning of 'until now' until now/earlier? No but I seem to do now.

Have I understood the proper meaning of 'until now' until now earlier yet?

Have I already understood the proper meaning yet?

I haven't understood the proper meaning until now/earlier, but it seems I do now.

Until now, I haven't understood it, but it seems I do now.
