No is does not affect battery life. Dynamic wallpaper is just a regular wallpaper photo that changes through the day. each photo is the same except with different color to represent day or night light. Dynamic wallpaper in this case is not a moving video in the background.

If I understand correctly all of the added folders for rotating wallpaper will be used as a source for the wallpaper image, in your example three folders - the two named wallpaper and one named favorite. I will need to boot up my Mac and see if this is the case and how to remove a folder from rotation. Thanks for your short tutorials. Am a life long windows user and find the MacOS confusing.

The behavior appears to be that it will only show images from the one selected folder, not all of the added folders. There are so many things that can be customized that playing the operating system could take away from the productivity time on the computer!

Do you mean iMovie? When you start your news project, create a library and place it where you want. But I wouldn't use an external drive to EDIT. External will always be slower than internal (Apple uses much faster internal drives that what you usually get when you buy an external, and the connection will slow down external drives as well). So edit with your library on the internal, then move the library to an external to archive it when you are done. See kzitem.info/news/bejne/yaZ3u36sgZ56mH4

You shouldn't need either. If you use either on a MacBook NEVER close the lid with them on as it will put pressure on the screen and damage it over time. If a non-laptop, then neither would damage anything, but you shouldn't need them. I suppose if you are in a dust environment (auto mechanics shop, for instance) then a keyboard cover would be good. Just remove it every time before closing the lid.

@@l.kurdistani Again it depends on many factors, like whether you are using File Vault. Remember when you start up and before you log in to an account, you and your Mac have no access to anything in any accounts (if you did, it would be a major security issue). So your Mac can't know what settings you have in any one account at that point. Also, consider if this is really an issue worth spending time and effort on. How often do you see your startup screen? Should be rare, unless you are needlessly shutting down your Mac. kzitem.info/news/bejne/p6mouqR7rop2p5g

No way to bring it up manually. The "unsubscribe" links look for properly-tagged unsubscribe instructions that would only appear in legitimate email messages (newsletters, marketing from real companies, etc). So true spam and scam emails wouldn't have a way to unsubscribe so there would be nothing for the unsubscribe button to do. That's why they don't appear.
