[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1648530, member: 204485"] Hi Simol, thanks for the information. Things have changed quite a bit since OSX 10.8 but the principal remains the same. That is, you need to pick a folder to load. When you look at the Screensaver window you will see a Source menu with a number of alternatives to choose from. These are usually iPhoto dates and Default Collections such as Ariel, Cosmos, Nature etc. Or you can choose a folder (that you create yourself), I have a folder of collected desktop photos I some times use or Photo Library. If you choose iPhoto Library you will see the window below. You must choose one of the existing sets from the menu or create one specifically for Screen Saver. The bottom line here is you cannot choose your entire iPhoto library. Back in the early days you could but because Libraries are so big these days it would take forever to load. So create a Screen Saver folder in iTunes, add some photos for immediate use and add more to the folder over time by dragging your favourites to it as you come across them.
