Phame Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 Hey, I installed Mavericks since it's out. But theres a little Thing I noticed. My Login Screen isn't showing a blurred Wallpaper like on all the Apple Pictures and so on. It's just a grey Screen like Mountain Lion. I show you what I mean: Apple Login Screen: http://hijackedmac.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/10/OS-X-Mavericks-neue-Funktion-Benachrichtigungen-Mitteilungen-Notifications-verpasste-Nachrichten-Login-Screen.jpg My Screen: http://cdn-static.zdnet.com/i/r/story/70/00/019092/a-mavericks-login-620x420.jpg?hash=AGLkBGVkZz Why? How does it look with your Hackintosh? My Specs: Asus P5Q Deluxe Intel Q8400 Nvidia GTX275 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcai777 Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 That's normal... You can change the login screen picture though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phame Posted January 17, 2014 Author Share Posted January 17, 2014 But why? I don't understand this? Is it Hackintosh related like: Hi I am Mavericks and I see you got a Hackintosh so you don't get the sooooo nice blurred Screen or what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcai777 Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 what do you mean by blurred? you mean darkened? because that is the login screen on my macs too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Long Cat Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 I think the screen you call the "Apple Login Screen" was probably just an in-development promo-shot. It doesn't look like that by default on any hack or real mac. How your screen looks is how it appears on a real mac. If you want to change it, looks like you can, try this out: http://osxdaily.com/2013/11/04/change-login-screen-wallpaper-os-x-mavericks/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phame Posted January 17, 2014 Author Share Posted January 17, 2014 Like the iOS 7 Transparency Thing. But I looked closely at the Apple Login Screen Picture and I'm not really sure if it's blurred or darkened. But the Point is, with my Hackintosh the Login Screen is completely Gray like my Picture above. Do I have to setup anything? Checked every single Setting in the Settings App but found nothing. I want it so bad. But it can't be just a Promo Thing. It was shown in the last Keynote Apple had as they roll Mavericks out. Even if I get a Notification the Screen is Grey. Here's another Picture in a Article about removing the Notifations from Mavericks Login/Lock Screen: http://m.cnet.com/news/how-to-remove-lock-screen-notifications-on-os-x-mavericks/57609142 And there is a Video about a Jailbreak Tweak and you see the Login/Lock Screen in Action: http://www.idownloadblog.com/2014/01/16/upcoming-tweak-lets-you-unlock-your-mac-using-touch-id/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcai777 Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 that is a LOCK screen, not a LOGIN screen. you can see this if you set a screensaver, make sure it asks for your password in the settings, wait for the screen saver to start, then press a key and you will see it.

Phame Posted January 17, 2014 Author Share Posted January 17, 2014 So I have to set my Wallpaper as a Screensaver? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcai777 Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 I don't know, but it will definitely display that if you wake up from sleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phame Posted January 18, 2014 Author Share Posted January 18, 2014 Okay, I've done it. I had to press ctrl + shift + eject (I got the Original Apple Keyboard) to get the Screen to Sleep and when I press a Button or move the Mouse it will show exactly the Screen with the dimmed Wallpaper.
