How to transfer a desktop picture? - clyde - 11-23-2017

OS 10.6.3 has a desktop picture that I don't find in Yosemite.

How can I copy and transfer a desktop picture to another OS or computer?

Click on the desktop so the Menu bar displays the Finder. Choose Finder > Go > Go To Folder from the Menu bar (or press Command + Shift + G). Enter this path into the Go To Folder dialog window: /Library/Screen Savers/Default Collections

there you will find folders with the pictures - transfer them like any other pic

1. Go to anywhere in the Finder and open a new window within the file system
2. Hit Command+Shift+G to bring up the Go To Folder option and enter the following path:
/Library/Desktop Pictures
3. Hit Return and you’ll jump to the Desktop Pictures directory, this is where all default wallpapers in Mac OS X are stored.
4. Use the same procedure to open the same folder on the second system, copy the image over.
