When you say "You must authenticate to put files in that directory". Does this mean I would be presented with a password prompt where I would then need to enter my password before the files would be allowed to be copied to the folder you mentioned?
Yes. That's correct.
If you are using an admin user it will be asked for the password only. Otherwise if you are using a standard user, you must provide both an admin username and its password.
But as others suggested, it is better to keep a wallpapers' dedidicated folder inside your user folder.
Thanks very much for the help Alberto its much appreciated.
I would be setting up only one account on the iMac, and this would be an Admin account/user. Myself and my girlfriend would just share this one account, which is what we've done for years on our current Windows PC.
I agree, it is going to be easier to have a dedicated folder for placing my own wallpapers, like what sbriss suggested earlier. I can give this folder a descriptive name such as Custom Wallpapers, so that it would be easy to find. Thanks again for the help everyone, its been much appreciated 🙂
