My screensaver follows examples I've seen as far as creating its defaults in its initWithFrame method:
ScreenSaverDefaults* defaults = [ScreenSaverDefaults defaultsForModuleWithName:MyModuleName]; // Register our default values: fileMan = [[NSFileManager alloc] init]; NSURL* defaultURL = [NSURL URLWithString:@"/Applications"]; NSArray* pictFolders = [fileMan URLsForDirectory:NSPicturesDirectory inDomains:NSUserDomainMask]; if(pictFolders != nil && [pictFolders count] > 0) defaultURL = [[pictFolders objectAtIndex:0] filePathURL]; [defaults registerDefaults:[NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys: defaultURL, kImageFolderPathPrefKey, [NSNumber numberWithInteger:NSOnState], kUsePolaroidBorderPrefKey, nil]]; Then later in my startAnimation method I grab that value, but it's nil: ScreenSaverDefaults* defaults = [ScreenSaverDefaults defaultsForModuleWithName:MyModuleName]; NSURL* url = [defaults URLForKey:kImageFolderPathPrefKey]; I tried calling [defaults synchronize] after registerDefaults, but that didn't help. I also tried creating a mutable dictionary and adding the url and integer via setObject:forKey:. No matter which method I use to create the defaults, I can definitely *see* the url in the defaults object, but it comes out nil when I ask for URLForKey. If I actually go through the System Preferences window and set my screen saver's prefs from there, then the url comes out as a valid value.
