Motion Weather 4K for Mac v1.2.1 Weather Wallpaper Software Activated Version Download

Step 1: Launch and Initial Setup

After launching Motion Weather 4K for the first time, it will start running automatically. You need to first set your geographic location.

1. Left-click the weather icon in the menu bar, select “Preferences…”, or use the shortcut Command + , to directly open preferences.
2. In the pop-up window, the “Weather” tab will be displayed by default.
3. In the “Location” field, enter your city name or postal code, then select the exact location from the drop-down list.
4. Adjust other options such as temperature unit (°C/°F) as needed.
5. Close the preferences window, and the settings will be saved automatically. At this point, your desktop wallpaper should have switched to the corresponding 4K dynamic video based on the current location’s weather and day/night time.

Step 2: Manage Dynamic Wallpaper (Display Preferences)

This is the key area for controlling dynamic wallpaper behavior.

1. Open preferences via the menu bar icon (Command + ,), and switch to the “Display” tab.
2. The top of the window will list all your monitors. Select the monitor you want to configure (e.g., “Display 1”).
3. Enable/Disable Dynamic Wallpaper: Check or uncheck “Enable Motion Wallpaper for this display”.
4. Select Custom Theme (Manual Mode): If you don’t want the wallpaper to change automatically with the weather, you can uncheck “Automatically change wallpaper based on weather”. Then, click the “Theme Selector” button below to choose a 4K video you like from the graphical interface as a fixed wallpaper.
5. Day/Night Mode: Ensure that “Automatically switch between day and night videos” is checked to enable automatic day/night video switching.

Step 3: Add and Customize Desktop Desklets

Desklets can greatly enrich your desktop information display.

1. In the preferences window, switch to the “Desklet Manager” tab.
2. The left list shows all available Desklet types (such as “Analog Clock”, “Weather Details”, “System Stats”).
3. Select a Desklet and click the “Add to Desktop” button below the list, and it will appear on your desktop.
4. Customize Desklet:
   • Move: Directly drag the Desklet to any position on the desktop with the mouse.
   • Resize: Hover the mouse over the edge of the Desklet, and drag when the cursor changes to a double arrow.
   • Open Settings Panel: Right-click on the Desklet and select “Settings…”. In this panel, you can modify almost all properties such as font, color, background transparency, and displayed information items.
5. Auto-match Theme: In the Desklet Manager, check “Automatically add and customize desklets for each theme”, and the software will intelligently add preset matching Desklets for the current weather theme when the wallpaper changes.

Step 5: Switch Locations and Manage Multiple Monitors

1. Quick Location Switch: At the top of the menu that pops up when you left-click the menu bar icon, there is a location drop-down menu where you can quickly switch to other added locations.
