screen saver options not saving
I have just updated to Yosemite and now my screen saver option is not saving, it reverts to national geographic each time. What am I not doing???
iMac (21.5-inch Late 2009), OS X Yosemite (10.10)
Hello,
I had this problem too and like you, I couldn't find a fix for this.
And then, after days of search, I found this page http://www.macissues.com/2014/12/10/fix-reverting-screensaver-settings-in-os-x/
I followed the first tip of that article:
- Open a Terminal window
- Type this command (just copy-paste it): defaults -currentHost delete com.apple.screensaver
This command clears all your screensaver settings and reverts them back to default. When you open your screensaver preferences, just set them up the way you like it.
Before applying this fix, my screensaver would revert to national geographic several times a day.
Since then, my settings seem to stick and its been days since I've tried this fix. 🙂
You can try that and tell us if it works. Good luck!
