User level: Level 1 (16 points)Hello: there are pics I like and want to save as a screensaver. How do I do it on an iMac? There are different settings than on a Windows laptop. Thanks, or as background

The Screensaver is in System Settings, but it's called under Wallpaper. It seems rather trickier than you'd expect. You can scroll down to that or type "Wallpaper" into the search field.Then click on "Screen Saver"
You'll click on Photos Options, "Source," and you can choose
an album in a Photos Library, or you can choose a Folder in Finder. I use a Folder for my wallpaper, and I use Photos for the screensaver.
Let us know if you need more…
