Preferences Error Could Not Load Security & Privacy Preference Pane
1:21 AM in response to Matt Harper I have the same problem after upgrading to Yosemite. I was changing the backgrounds in this preferences, the computer was not responding for about 3 seconds and after this Desktop & Screen Saver pane was not accessible. I tried this solution from OS X Lion but it doesn't work.I even re-installed the Yosemite, but with no luck. Guess the re-installation over existing Yosemite does not do everything from scratch...What to do?

Have two users plus guest, works fine on one but not the 2nd. Set up a 3rd and works fine. Tried advice offered re earlier OS X versions but with no effect.

It will automatically create a new, working .plist file. share|improve this answer edited Mar 28 '12 at 8:27 answered Mar 28 '12 at 8:14 Michiel 8,50973178 uhm.... and if i don't have this file?? I searched entire disk, but nothing. –Alberto Pasca Mar 28 '12 at 8:19 Try it in here ~/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist –revolver Mar 28 '12 at 8:32 Nothing appened. Also restarted system. –Alberto Pasca Mar 28 '12 at 9:24 add a comment| up vote 1 down vote Solution from here. Or you can use Michiel's. They are similar,except that the method below doesn't back up your plist. Quit the System Preferences application, if it is running. Launch the Terminal application (found in /Applications/Utilities/). Type sudo -s and press Return Enter the password for the current user profile (NOT the root password). Type cd /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration and press Return (note case sensitivity). Type mv preferences.plist preferences.plist.old and press Return. share|improve this answer answered
OS X Install ESD Dmg found within the app. After restoring my accounts http://mac.bigresource.com/Intel-Mac-Preferences-Error-Could-not-load-Desktop-Screen-Saver-preference-pane-mkGg5rBWy.html and data from a time machine backup, everything seems to work fine except for 3 preference panes within the System Preferences, (Desktop & Screen Saver, Energy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AfYUeJ98ABI Saver, and Spotlight.) I've tried reinstalling Lion over the current installation, I've tried reinstalling the latest combo update, I've trying repairing disk permissions, I've tried installing System could not Preferences app as well as each individual .prefpane, none of which worked. When trying to run the preference pane I get: "Preferences Error. Could not load Desktop & Screen Saver preference pane." Replace Desktop & Screensaver part with Energy Saver and Spotlight respectively for each pane. When I run the preference pane, here is could not load the output from the console: 3/19/12 6:13:04.765 PM System Preferences: [NSPrefPaneBundle instantiatePrefPaneObject] (/System/Library/PreferencePanes/DesktopScreenEffectsPref.prefPane): principalClass is nil. All three give the same error, again replacing DesktopScreenEffectsPref.prefpane with the corresponding pane.
