    Hi Shawn,

    I think I am asking about my screensaver and not my background, so please bear with me . For both I use a file of my own photos. Before a recent update, the screensaver would change from a single picture to a montage of 6 pictures at random - in that I'm not aware that I did anything specifically to get it to do this. Now it just shows one picture after another and I'd like to revert to also having the random montage.

    If this makes sense to you, can you please tell me what settings I should be using to achieve this. There's one called 'Shuffle' but, as I said, I'm not consciously aware of having chosen this before.

    Many thanks,

    Maggi

    Hello Maggi,

    It sounds like you are wanting to have Shuffle pictures checked in the Photos Screen Saver Settings like below.

    Thanks Shawn,

    I will try this, though I can honestly say I have no recollection of ever having done this before. Maybe I change stuff in my sleep
