I am having a problem with saving my Desktop Background.
I can change it, but after restarting the computer, it reverts back to the previous Background.
I am using OS X 10.8.2 on a new 21.5 in. iMac.
iMac (21.5-inch Mid 2011), OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.2)
Open Finder, select Go > Go to Folder, type ~/Library/Preferences, delete com.apple.desktop.plist and reboot
Thank you!
Actually, I just got off the phone with Apple and they had me do the same thing, along with some additional items (I also had a ScreenSaver problem) listed below:
Here is a list of procedures we went through:
- Navigated to ~/Library
- From /Preferences, deleted:
ByHosts folder
com.apple.desktop.plist
com.apple.preference.desktopscreeneffect.plist
com.apple.screensaver.plist
com.apple.systempreferences.plist
- Deleted contents of Library/Saved Application State folder
- Emptied trash, restarted computer
Thanks again,
Ken
You're welcome
Desktop Background will not Save?
