Hi, I have Sonoma 23A5337a installed.
Can you please tell me how to delete old wallpaper/screen savers download on Mac Sonoma 14?
Right now there is no such option, and on Ventura you could right click on unused wallpapers and delete old downloaded wallpapers/screen savers, on Sonoma there is no such option.
Please add an option to delete downloaded wallpapers/screen savers
I`d like to know how to do, too.
Well, I only know a way to delete these new screen savers. To do so just Go to this folder:
/Library/Application Support/com.apple.idleassetsd
And you should be able to see all the folders where they are stored
Thank you
I used the following steps to get a permanent sort of fix. The challenge is that even if you delete the files, Sonoma downloads them again to fill up the disk really quickly, which is really annoying.
To stop this from happening is a 3 step process.
Step 1: You select a static picture in the wallpaper rather than the dynamic one. Go to System Settings/Wallpaper and select a picture.
Step 2: Delete the .mov files in /Library/Application Support/com.apple.idleassetsd/Customer/ folder. My files were under 4KSDR240FPS folder.
Step 3: This is the most important step of all.
ps -aef | grep Wallpaper
Once you get the process IDs, kill them all.
This seems to be solving the problem for me now.
Someone can use a script at logon to perform the above steps.
Happy storage recovery.
