How to download Bing wallpaper from Safari?

I'm not understanding the problem.

Right-click image -> Save image as...

Am I misunderstanding?

 

Why cant you just right click and select "use image as desktop background"?

 

Try Clicking on the picture and then drag it onto your desktop.
Once you have it you can do what you want with it.

Opps ..... that's taking for granted that you are no longer using your browser full screen.

1. Open Bing in Firefox. Now right click anywhere on the background image and click on view background image. When the image is displayed, click on save image as and save it at appropriate place on your computer.

2. If, for some reason, the above method isn’t working, then use this method. Open Bing in Firefox again. Go to Tools > Page Info, and click on the Media tab. Now click on the any link in the addresses box, the preview of image at this address will be displayed below. Scroll down through these images one by one until you find the bing’s background image. Once you see that image, click on the Save as button and save the image on your computer.

Also, Bing Image Archive from istartedsomething.com is excellent calendar listed with each day background image. Save from here.

 

Have you set up the secondary tap (right click) in System prefs trackpad?

If it's the background picture that bing uses rather than the images available under "images " I can't find a way with Safari.

Note:
As Bing decides that all New Zealanders live in Australia I wouldn't trust the rest of their results.. ie choice of Australia or the world with Australian backgrounds.. Lazy to say the least.

 

Either there's something wrong with your Safari, or you're doing something wrong. I have no problems downloading Bing wallpapers from Safari. Both the method I provided above and the method suggested by Ashka work just fine.

Try creating a new user and seeing if you have any luck when logged in as the new user.

 

That is not the Wallpaper download section of Bing. This is the right location:

Right click that picture and select Save Image to Downloads Folder or Use Image as Desktop Picture.

 

yes, thanks john doe 57

I didn't know about Bing wallpaper until browsing this site. I saved 20+ Bing pictures into my pictures folder which then would allow me to randomly view them via Preferences/Desktop.

But in viewing those pictures as desktop images (full screen), I found all of them to be of poorer sharpness than the images that came with my laptop, those in the other folders appearing in Preferences/Desktop.

Anyone else finding that? If so, any idea why that is?

Thanks.

 

Probably because the picture is too small to cover the screen of your computer.

 

Take a screenshot

Take a screenshot of the image or the area of the image you want:

Command-shift-4 will give you a cursor with which you can size up the shot you want, as soon as you let go of the keys, the photo snaps and immediately appears on your desktop.
