I appear to have migrated all my photos to screensaver which as a novice I wanted to do. However in so doing I have lost my ability to view my photos in my photo library. If I find photo library in my settings it takes me to the screensaver video. How can I undo this so Incan still see my photos in photo library, at the same time using chosen photos to create my screensaver ?? Help remember I am a novice.

Now that you know where the photos are located, it might be good to open the colorful Photos app, then select the Import option under the File menu. Then navigate to Library, Photos, and import them so you can view them in their proper application.
P.S. If you could also click the "Helpful" button under TonyCollinet's post, you would help him get more points. :)

ah sorry. I thought the multi coloured photos icon at bottom of screen which normally opens photos on my Mac is what you meant. I told you I was novice. Apologies. Where might I find the photos app on my Mac then?
Hmm
Perhaps you can post a screenshot of what you are seeing. It is likely that the photos icon at the bottom of the screen is the photos app - but there is nothing to do with the screensaver inside the photos app, so what you are saying (video folder of the screensaver) makes no sense.
To create a screenshot, hit CMD-shift-4 and drag a box around the area you want to show. It will be saved to the desktop.
Hi. In trying to take a photo my Library / photos popped up and there they were. Not in the colourful photos app but somewhere else in the settings
thank you so much for your trouble in trying to help me, which has inadvertently done just that!!
thank you so much for your time.
That isn't the photos app.
I mean opeing the actual photos app where you view and manage your photos. Not in the screensaver settings.
Icon looks like this:
What happens when you open the photos app?
I just see the video folder of the screensaver
Thank you. I am away from home until 8pm this evening. I will respond then.
No problem. Not sure what I did, but glad it helped 🙃
