- Mar 15, 2017 #1 Here in Europe the Apple TV's 'Aerial' screensaver hasn't worked for two days now. I just get a blank screen. If I'm not mistaken, this could be a.
- The fourth generation Apple TV ships with a couple of Aerial screen saver videos pre-installed. If you didn't tell it to check automatically for new videos when you set up the Apple TV, It doesn't take long to tire of the small initial selection - but Apple's got loads more, and AppleInsider will tell you how to get them.

Doesn't work on my new imac 24'
doesnt work for 3 screens
I keep installing it but for some reason the screensaver stays the same every time. How do I change it?
Downloaded for both my iMac 27', and MacBook Pro on Catalina and works perfect
Also installed on my Windows 10 Games machine and works well. You do however need a good graphics card on Win10, at least 2gb
Awesome screensaver! My only issue with it is that you can't choose a specific one. A deticated button to choose a specific one would be nice. Also im missing the text that usually appears at the bottom for a biref moment
Running OS Big Sir, and it works great!
awesome that it still works
It works for me. Beautiful videos of clouds.
PERFECT!!!!
It was just giving me a black screen.
One of the best one but there should be 4k version.
the screensaver is amazing but there is a small text that actually bothers me though, could anyone help me eradicate that texts? thank you
I love it!
best but, not work on catalina
is not working at catalina, help
Says Windows Media Player can't play the file.
It's Great
good
Prefect
!!!!!!!!!!!
Using it on Macbook Air with Mojave 10.14.2. The screen just goes blank when the screensaver is about to start. Any idea why?
Screensaver Filename: Aerial.scr
VirusTotal: 0
Score: 4 / 5
Tested on: 2019-01-09
Operating System: Windows 10 Pro (full updated)
Need a good PC to run this one.
Thanks!
Have I done it wrong? Downloading Aerial.saver.zip, unzipping ... Contents folder does not have .saver file. Tried to simply rename .saver.zip to .saver, does not work either
Awesome screensaver. If you're looking for an up-to date version of this screensaver with 4K videos and many other features, visit the project homepage to download: https://github.com/JohnCoates/Aerial
Is there any way to make it offline? Or download just 2-3 video and set its path within the app? It's bit disappointing that I need to connect to internet everytime to use this.
It is - or rather was - truly stunning screensaver, however as soon as you move to Mojave (am on the latest Beta version) it ceases to function!!
Great screen saver. However, I am beta testing MacOS 10.14 (Mojave) and the screen saver does not work with that version. It will need to be updated.
Running MacBookPro14,2 with macOs 10.13.5 (17F77) I've experienced total jamming after a few seconds of beautiful scenery view. Looked like synchronisation issue of display, healed as soon as clock is set to be displayed. Then, just awesome!
This screen saver is not working on my Windows 10 machine. I think it would be very beautiful, but can't get it to work.
Not working, any special requirements
Hands down, this is THE BEST SCREENSAVER I have ever come across.
Great screensaver but only works while clock is displayed.
This screensaver is excellent and is an amazing piece of software. However i had discovered a bug where certain screensavers appear to shake in a glitchy fashion. Almost as if it it is trying to adjust to a different screen resolution. I would really like this fixed to have a perfect screensaver.
its pretty good
This is amazing as the other have said just tried it quickly and it is great - you get short Aerial videos each time. Great on a big retina screen.
The most breathtaking screensaver in full performance.
This screensaver is BREATHTAKING on Windows 10, especially with a nice size display. Make sure to follow the instructions on unzipping a file. Enjoy!
I love the pictures, but i wish I knew where these places were! I suggest adding the information at the bottom
Of the screen!
I was awestruck. It's so beautiful <3.
I never give feedback on anything online. This screen saver is outrageously awesome!
It is the most incredible screensaver I have ever seen! Gold star for the people behind it. I'm totally blown away!!!
When Windows Firewall blocks everything, then this screensaver gets an error message and cuts!
Apple Aerial Screensaver 2017 Mac
Screensavers Planet: The high-quality videos are much too large in file size to be included in the download here, so the screensaver streams them from Apple's servers. If you block its connection to the internet, the Aerial Views screensaver will not work.
Nice views
Amazingly beautiful. Putting this on my 55' tv in my living room while music plays on my stereo is great for entertaining. Love it.
wow
yay
perfect best screen saver
Guau... It's amazing!!!
Gorgeous, but on Windows 10 my monitor stays on indefinitely, ignoring its auto-off setting. It's only supposed to do that when viewing full-screen video, not for screensavers.
mi piace , ma questo screensaver dovrebbe includere l'Italia
Good!
