macOS Big Sur wallpapers
Having recently visited Bixby Bridge, I am really excited about this year’s new wallpapers. They are simply stunning. Captured at eight different times during the day, the Big Sur wallpapers will dynamically shift during corresponding real world local times on the forthcoming macOS upgrade.
Two additional images are the light and dark versions of the color banded wallpapers that could be seen in various macOS demonstrations during the WWDC 2020 software demonstrations.
The following images were gathered by @SnazzyQ, who claimed in a tweet they must have fallen off the back of a truck.
If you love wallpapers as much as the iDB team, then you should follow along with me @jim_gresham. I utilize Twitter to curate the Sunday, Wallpapers of the Week posts. Every seven days you can expect to find new, photo quality images waiting for download to your favorite Apple gadgets.

35 стандартных обоев OS X и macOS в разрешении 5K (+ бонус 6K macOS Big Sur)
Apple выпускала каждую новую версию своей операционной системы macOS (OS X) с новыми обоями рабочего стола. Вы можете скачать все стандартные обои OS X и macOS в разрешении 5K и 6K по ссылкам ниже.
Последние macOS Mojave и Catalina поставляются с обоями высокого разрешения, которые можно использовать на 5K-дисплеях, для macOS Big Sur в открытом доступе уже появились обои в разрешении 6K. Обои в более старых версиях имеют относительно низкое разрешение и использовать их на больших современных экранах нормально не получится. В мире дисплеев 5K они имеют весьма низкое количество точек на единицу площади.
Дизайнер @forgottentowel воссоздал стандартные обои на рабочий стол в формате 5K и 6K для всех версий macOS, начиная с OS X 10.0 Cheetah до macOS Catalina и macOS Big Sur. Вы можете использовать их практически на любом мониторе без проблем в качестве фона.
Разрешение 5K превосходит стандарт 4K на 77% по информационной ёмкости. Также они в 7 раз больше FullHD (1080p).
Обратите внимание, что разрешение 5K ниже разрешения монитора Retina 6K Pro Display XDR (6016х3384 пикселей). Использовать эти обои на новом мониторе Apple можно, но качество картинки может быть ниже ожидаемого. Исключением являются обои для macOS Catalina и macOS Big Sur — они имеют разрешение 6016×6016 пикселей и отлично выглядят на Pro Display XDR. А к концу 2020 — началу 2021 года ждем новый iMac на процессоре Apple и новой macOS Big Sur с дисплеем Retina 6K.
Также можно установить их на Windows, чтобы получить обои как на макбуке или iMac.
Apple использовала одинаковые обои рабочего стола по умолчанию в OS X Cheetah и Puma. Фактически, вплоть до OS X 10.4 Tiger, компания использовала слегка модифицированную версию Aqua.
Скачать в разрешении 5K:
В OS X 10.5 Leopard были представлены новые обои по умолчанию, которые были немного изменены в OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard. Они открыли «космическую эру» обоев OS X.
Версия Lion продолжила космическую тему, на этот раз демонстрируя галактику Андромеды, которая была продолжена в Mountain Lion.
OS X Mavericks получили изображение для рабочего стола в виде волны.
10.9 Mavericks
- Mavericks 5K.
Начиная с OS X 10.10 Yosemite, Apple переключилась на новую «горную» тему обоев.
Скачать в формате 5K:
Это продолжалось вплоть до выхода MacOS 10.14 Mojave, которая включала динамические обои с меняющимся фоном в зависимости от времени суток.
10.14 Mojave
Ниже можно скачать фоны, которые меняются автоматически системой в зависимости от времени суток:
macOS Catalina представила несколько вариантов обоев по умолчанию и возможностью автоматического переключения между изображениями в зависимости от времени суток и настроек системы.
10.15 Catalina
Новая операционная система macOS Big Sur (порядковый номер 11), анонсирована 22 июня 2020г. на WWDC 2020. Это будет ОС, обеспечивающая поддержку компьютеров Mac на базе Apple Silicon и обладающая совершенно новым дизайном.
Эти изображения имеют разрешение 6016×6016 пикселей и отлично подходят для размещения на новом мониторе Pro Display XDR.
Не так давно, были созданы объединённые обои версий MacOS от Cheetah до Catalina. А вчера стало известно, что Apple значительно доработала управление обоями iOS 14, выход которой ожидается осенью 2020 года. Beta версия iOS 14 уже доступна для разработчиков (с 23 июня 2020).

Question: Q: Big Sur Wallpaper Issue
Ever since installing Big Sur, whenever I shut down and then restart my computer, the wallpaper changes from my selection back to the default. I am using an external display (1080p). Perhaps the new dynamic wallpapers are not meant for this resolution? I tried a still image wallpaper also and the same issue occurs. Is anyone else experiencing this? Is this a known issue?

I have found a workaround for MacBooks:
- ensure lid is open
- disconnect external display
- reselect a wallpaper in settings
- shut down computer
- start up computer without external display connected
- reconnect external display
- the next time you shut down and restart, the wallpaper saves.
I’m not sure why this worked but for now it is a sufficient workaround.

Update: The issue is the external display. When the MacBook is disconnected from the display and shut down, it reboots with the correct wallpaper. If the MacBook is shut down and rebooted with the external display (1080p) connected, the wallpaper resets to default. I find it odd that the previous macOS did not do this; only since I updated to Big Sur am I having issues. Hopefully a patch will fix this.

Let the computer sleep.
If you shut down a reboot takes you to the preboot partition which contains the code that handles the login for an encrypted drive, after that is successfully unlocked it is handed off to the main OS— it is here your user preferences are honored.

Sleeping does not cause the problem to occur — you are correct. However, if I need to shut down, the wallpaper shouldn’t’ just reset back to default. The previous macOS did not have this issue.
Thank you for the response.

I have same issue with my external monitors. The Wallpaper selection is not saved.
I plan to submit feedback here:

On my Mac Mini, it’s the primary monitor that always starts with the ugly default Big Sur wallpaper. The second display is always correct.

Doesn’t solve the issue for me on the MBP 16″ — it is so annoying.
In addition — the «Catalina» way to change the lock screen wallpaper is no longer working, even withy csrutil disable, I’m not able to change files in «Desktop Wallpapers» folder.

I’m having the exact same issue on my external display. KinTheKnow’s answer didn’t work for me at first. I followed the instructions he mentioned but then I had to access the settings again to change desktop wallpaper and now 2 windows popped up one on each screen to change wallpaper to each one.
Nov 22, 2020 3:16 PM
I swapped where the monitors were plugged in, and it’s OK now.
Nov 22, 2020 4:42 PM
Yep, the same issue. Obviously related to multiple displays and/or multiple desktop. I have two external displays at work and am using multiple desktops at home. Every time I get to work and open my MacBook, I find the wallpaper back to default.

I have a Mac Mini that is displayless. I remotely connect to it from my other Macbook Pro or iPad with Screen Sharing software.
This same thing happens if I reboot the Mini.
I have a rotating background that changes every 30 minutes (photos), and have to go back into Desktop and Wallpaper settings to reset my preference.
It doesn’t seem to be directly related to the hardware. The setting doesn’t want to stick. I do not have the same issue on my MacBook Pro, also running Big Sur.

I have a changing wallpaper issue in Big Sur (11.1) with two user accounts and two displays, when changing from a Standard account to my Admin account on my Mac Pro.
Anytime I start the Mac and log in to the Standard account everything is fine. When I change to Admin account the second display shows the colorful default wallpaper, that came with Big Sur and I have to change to my chosen dynamic wallpaper.
When I start the Mac and log in to my Admin account and change later to Standard account everything is right.
I didn’t have an issue like this with Catalina, so maybe something is wrong with the handover of the wallpaper settings and I hope an update will fix this?
