Then it will show Change picture and I can select Every 5 seconds, minute, 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, every hour or every day. It will show Rotating through and then the name of the folder. Now at the top the Options change because I've selected Auto-Rotate. You'll see here my display shows the Auto-Rotate symbol with a few of those photos. So I'm going to select Auto-Rotate here and that will Auto-Rotate all of the photos in this folder. I can actually select one and use that as my wallpaper. You'll see all six of those photos right here. Now it's going to add it as an option below. I'm going to click that and then I'm going to go into my Pictures Folder and then there's that Wallpapers' Folder.

To add a folder full of photos we're going to use this Add Folder button here. Instead, let's add our photos because that's what we really want to do. Then, since I've chosen Auto-Rotate I'll actually see the options up here for that. If I choose Auto-Rotate I can have it actually rotate through all of these. So if I look here I could see that I've got all these different colors and I can choose anyone of those to use as a background color instead of a wallpaper photo. You can actually use a solid background color and have that Auto-Rotate through. Here are the different wallpapers that Apple supplies and you could see there's no option for it there.īut when you get down to Colors you'll see Auto-Rotate. This is the one I want to set the wallpaper for and then you could see here it doesn't appear to be any option to have wallpapers rotate.

Now I've got two different screens attached to my Mac so I'm going to make sure I have the correct one selected. So let's go into System Settings and under System Settings let's go to Wallpaper. But however you do it you now have a folder that you can access and has all the photos you want to use as your set of rotating wallpapers. So here like in the Photos App I can grab a photo like this one and just drag it in and add it that way. I could have also exported these from the Photos App and put them in there. Now you can see in the Wallpapers' folder here I've got these six photos. I'm actually going to hold the Option Key down and Copy them in so I leave them right here. I'm going to add them to this Wallpapers folder. Here I've got some photos stored in another folder. So maybe this is Wallpapers 1 or Wallpapers Nature or Wallpapers 2023. You may even want to have different sets of these. Let's create a new folder there and we will call it Wallpapers. Go down into there you'll probably see your Photos Library there and you may see other folders that you have created or other apps have created. In your Home Folder you should see a Pictures Folder. Now I think a good location for this is the Pictures Folder. I'm going to start off by going to a location where we can create a folder to store these photos.

So let's start by looking at how to do it by looking at files in the Finder. The second way is as an album in your Photos Library.

The first way is as individual photo files inside of a folder in the Finder. So first there are two different ways you can have a set of photos stored so that you can use them as a set of wallpapers. It's a little difficult to see exactly how to set this up. I think the reason this question is coming up so much right now is because System Settings in Ventura looks a lot different than System Preferences in macOS Monterey and before.
