I'd like to display a different image on each of my two monitors as the screensaver. The "Classic" screensaver almost does this, but it always mirrors the same image to both monitors.

A way to display a single, larger image spanned across the two screens would also work just as well for me.

  • @Buscar웃: I don't. The Classic screensaver mirrors the images to both of the un-mirrored monitors.

Setting your screensaver to use your iPhoto library will have it display different images on each display.

If My Photo Stream and Photo Library… are not choices listed in the Source list box, you may need to rebuild your thumbnails and/or cache in iPhoto first (start iPhoto while pressing option+cmd).

  • It certainly does so on my Lion 10.7.5 system.

  • You'll need to explain what you mean. I can't find any mention of the word "iPhoto" in the screensaver config dialogs.

  • In 10.9 I only get the same image. @bukzor When you select one of the Photo Themes, under the preview on the right you will see a drop down to select source. That where you go to finder your iPhoto..

  • @bukzor, you may need to address issues with iPhoto. See my edited answer.
