I just updated to macOS Mojave, and immediately noticed a couple of things:   My custom login screen wallpaper is gone. When you click on a user's name in the login screen, it switches to their personal background (their usual wallpaper for the first space on the primary monitor).   I assumed it had just overwritten my cached image file. But when I went to replace it, nothing happened. It turns out that com.apple.desktop.admin.png is gone entirely!    Right after taking that screenshot, I decided to poke into Desktop Pictures and found my personal login screen background, which looks promising. It contains one other folder, which  probably  (edit: confirmed) contains the login screen background of my administrator account.

I've googled quite a bit but nothing I've found works. I just want to display the Trash, Home folder, Computer etc icons on my Desktop in Ubuntu.  The closest I've come is installing dconf-tools, running it, going to org -&gt; gnome -&gt; desktop -&gt; background and checking show-desktop-icons then org -&gt; gnome -&gt; nautilus -&gt; desktop and checking the icons I want to show.  Nothing happens.  I've also tried looking in compizconfig-settings-manager and gconf-editor but can't find anything there.  Ideas?

So I am using Ubuntu and I have encountered many softwares and workarounds for changing wallpapers automatically, BUT, it all pertains to time intervals and what I want is by certain time period.  Like I got this wallpapers for dawn, morning, noon, afternoon, dusk and night. And I want to set my wallpapers that each of them transitions at a certain hour, e.g. 4 am, 8 am, 12 pm, 3 pm, 6 pm and 8 pm. NOT through every 3 hours or so, PLEASE.  I encountered wallch, SyncWall and Variety, but didn't see my intended purpose. Syncwall was close enough, except that it causes a bug with dual monitor wallpapers.  Any other apps/softwares that you could suggest? A manual script would also do, if you may.

Here are some of the directories where .desktop files describing applications can be found:  ~/local/.share/applications /usr/share/applications /usr/share/app-install/desktop   Perhaps there are even more of them. What is the actual purpose of every particular one to exist and into which should I put my application .desktop file in what a case?  And where are application icons put to be found as referenced in the .desktop files?

I want to have my wallpaper be seasonal (summer, fall, winter, spring), but also update daily with a seasonal themed wallpaper. So essentially, I am thinking of having 4 directories (summer, fall, winter, spring). During summer, my wallpaper background would rotate through the images in the summer directory on a daily basis. Then on Sept. 21, the wallpaper directory would change to fall, and the wallpaper would then cycle through those images on a daily basis, etc. I am comfortable writing a script, but where would I start? How this question is unique Edit: To clarify further about what makes this question unique. While there are many methods to create a slideshow, they all depend on setting the images directory. What I am asking is how to dynamically change the images directory. So slide show today comes out of the /images/winter/ directory, and slide show in spring comes out of the /images/spring/ directory. I could manually do this by just changing the directory in the appearance settings every season, but I don't want to have to that when I can tell the computer to do it for me.

There is another question on here that allows users to find the path to their current background image through a cmd command.    In Windows 10 this no longer works. It only returns the first image in the folder, it does not change with the backgrounds as they transition. I need a similar command that returns the path(s) to the current image on the desktop background(s) that actually works in Windows 10 if one exists.

I removed the original Downloads folder in the home directory and created a new one with the same name, but the down arrow icon on the new Download folder now disappeared. Could someone please tell me how to restore that icon?   In addition, from the image above we see "Downloads" disappears also in "Places" category in the left panel. I think it should be there originally. If after restoring the down arrow icon, the "Downloads" is still not in "Places" category, I would also like to ask you to help me put "Downloads" back to "Places". Thank you.  PS: I am not using any theme.

I have a launcher on my desktop and want to add another one manually with the same icon.   When I go to the preferences of the existing launcher and click the icon, it doesn't take me to the folder where the icon is stored but just to my home folder.  How can I find out where the used icon of the launcher is located in my system?

I have strange problem. My Wallch icon is huge. See the screenshot:    I removed XFCE settings and reordered items a little. How can I restore normal Wallch icon size?

I'd like to find the location of the icons used by some non-default  (also called application indicators or indicator applets).    Where are these icons image files located?  In my screenshot I have ownCloud and Radiotray, but I would like a general answer not specific to these particular icons please. I don't know the file names or file types so searching is difficult.

My desktop (not the /home/user/Desktop folder) shows the contents of my /home/user folder. I don't know how I have done it and can I have some help on undoing it? The /home/user/Desktop folder just contains my desktop files which do not appear on my desktop.

Some folders in my Home directory have special icons.    I would like to do something like this with a custom icon for a folder.

How can I set up desktop defaults, much like most distributions do, for every new user? (ex. default wallpaper, apps, etc)

Is there a way to see installed apps in a more conventional (to a Mac user!) way, like a folder with a load of app icons, or a list, or anything other than that odious semi-transparent flip out thing that's difficult to see (cos there's loads of crap showing through it), can't be resized and keeps disappearing when I click something..?
