Hi,
I just upgraded to Sonoma and everything looks to be working fine with the exception of the wallpaper. If I change it, and switch between spaces, it restores the original Sonoma wallpaper. This happens even if I set options "Show on all spaces", and "Show as screen saver". Does this have a quick fix? It looks to be a bug on macOS Sonoma.
Thanks
MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 11.0
Okay, thanks for checking out the wallpaper changes on multiple desktops. This is not the behavior I saw. I manually created two desktops (no full screen apps). Then switching between any space reset the wallpaper to default.
I finally figured out what was causing the issue. It is because I was using the app TopNotch (version 1.3.2). This app hides the display notch on the macbook pro. Disabling it fixed the issue for me. So it is not a macOS bug.
For a longer term solution to not be distracted by the display notch, I found System Preferences > Accessibility > Display. Here I turned on Reduced Transparency which makes the menu bar greyish in color (on dark mode). This hides the notch to some extent.
Got it, thanks. Personally I don't use command tab to switch between apps/spaces. For that matter I don't bother with multiple Desktops.
edit: or Full Screen.
You're welcome. Glad you found the problem.
The Lock screen and the wallpaper are two different things.
Did you ever find a solution. Mine happens when I move my macbook m2 air to different monitors ... unplugging usb-c from one display. Completely annoying to reset the wallpaper each time.
Wallpaper is set for specific Spaces, and displays. Your mac should recognize previously used displays, and use the proper walllpaper for each. Is that not happening to you?
Wallpaper changes back to default after switching spaces
