Mac OS X – Show Desktop Image Path

Posted on By David Kittell

Ever wonder where the image displayed on your desktop is located?

Open Terminal and then run the first command to show the image path, then to hide the path again run the second command.

defaults write com.apple.dock desktop-picture-show-debug-text -bool TRUE;killall Dock

defaults delete com.apple.dock desktop-picture-show-debug-text;killall Dock
