I have a gaming PC at home that I use. But I also have MacBooks and an iMac. I use the Macs for all my daily work and resort to the PC for gaming and photo editing. So I know firsthand that PCs are more customizable and provide more raw power than a comparable Mac. I still find it hard to explain why I love a Mac. Changing your desktop background and screensaver is really simple. Follow the steps below to set your Mac to use photos from your Photos Library as a screensaver: Click the System Preferences icon from the Dock. Click Desktop & Screen Saver, and go to the Screen Saver tab. Choose the style you want from the menu on the left. Oct 15, 2018 Download the files you’re interested in, then put your them all anywhere you’d like on your Mac. Now head to System Preferences Desktop & Screen Saver and add your folder. The default desert thumbnail will show up, which is disappointing, but all of your dynamic wallpapers are here.

  1. Choose Apple menu  > System Preferences.
  2. Click Desktop & Screen Saver.
  3. From the Desktop pane, select a folder of images on the left, then click an image on the right to change your desktop picture.

In macOS Mojave or later, you can also choose from Dynamic Desktop images, which automatically change throughout the day based on the time of day in your location.

Add a folder of your own images

To add a folder of your own images, click the add button (+) below the list of folders, then choose the folder that contains your images.

For best results, choose images that are stored on your startup disk. Images stored on a different disk might not load reliably after restarting your Mac, depending on how quickly the other disk becomes available after startup.

Change your desktop picture from Photos

  1. Open the Photos app.
  2. If you're using multiple displays, drag the Photos window over the desktop that you want to change.
  3. Control-click (or right-click) the image that you want to use.
  4. Select Share from the shortcut menu, then choose Set Desktop Picture from the submenu.

Change your desktop picture from the Finder

  1. From a Finder window or your desktop, locate the image file that you want to use.
  2. Control-click (or right-click) the file, then choose Set Desktop Picture from the shortcut menu. If you're using multiple displays, this changes the wallpaper of your primary display only.

If you don't see Set Desktop Picture in the shortcut menu, you should see a submenu named Services instead. Choose Set Desktop Picture from there.
