Does anyone know if wand outfits (and tools/umbrellas/wands) appear in dream addresses?
In other words, if a secondary island resident has a wand outfit on and holding an umbrella, will they be wearing the wand outfit and holding an umbrella, or will they be wearing their default clothes when I upload a dream?

I can't check this but I saw this in the "Halloween 2021 unlocked" thread as stated by the OP: you have to also set your time zone to one that's already on the 31st, so e.g to JST. Hope this helps

the human characters are player characters. If you did not make them, do you share your switch with anyone (the game only lets you make one island per switch)? You can delete them if you login through those accounts (you should be able to google how to delete extra players - sorry I don’t remember how off the top of my head)
you do only have 8 villagers so you can buy two more housing plots from Tom nook to get up to 2 more villagers (I recommend one at a time if you want to island hop, cause they can auto fill after one day of being empty). You can do this without deleting the additional player characters. The 10 villager limit is unaffected by player characters,
i've never invited anyone onto my island, but i do share my switch with my family and have a sibling named zach. idk who "grey" is tho lol. thanks!
thanks. I just tried to change the time zone to Australia but it didn’t work. I changed the clock to 6pm on the 31st but no Jack.
it’s so annoying. It’s a holiday weekend and Nintendo won’t let us play the holiday event.
Here's one that I found a while ago.

I’m super confused about the save data. I want to have my game set up so that if any mayor catastrophe happens, the save data protects me. For example, an instance where my switch breaks or lose it or something, I can use the save data to transfer it into a new switch. I believe I have it set up that way, but I’m a bit confused. When I start up the game , there’s always a small message that states: backups not saved. What does this mean, and what should I do? Here is what I’m seeing:
Please help me with my paranoia.
Animal crossing uses a different save back up to the normal switch one.
Press - on that screen to go into settings and turn it on in that menu

Thanks! I turned it on. wow that should be made more clear. I had the switch one on, but I didn’t know I needed to enabled a different option. I had been playing like this since the game came out. I would have been devastated if I wasn’t able to retrieve my island. Since the switch has its own backup, what exactly is that for? I only play animal crossing, but I have that one enabled. Now I’m wondering if I should leave that one, and what it actually does.

I planted some trees and have tt forward but they are just not growing. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. I feel like they are in places that they should be growing.
A sapling on the top, and the cedar at the bottom. They don’t have rocks, house, cliff or anything near them. There’s also a spot on the middle between them. What could be the issue?

You can leave it on. It's just that ACNH doesn't support that backup function and has its own separate backup
Trees won't grow if there are too many other trees in the same area even if they aren't immediately next to other trees/cliffs/etc. This can be fixed by moving the tree temporarily elsewhere, waiting until it finishes growing, and then moving it back.

Thank you so much! I tried to moved an already grown tree and it worked perfectly!

I have a question about the update. Does your switch have to be on the correct date to be able to download the update. I ask because my switch is currently two days ahead and Kyle has finally asked to move. I want the plot to be empty when the update drops so that means my switch will not be on the right date
Edit ; If I was to say yes to Kyle moving then go back in time to the correct day would that force Kyle to be in boxes like it would if you go forward a day?

I've experienced having to sync my switch time to the current time - and I do mean syncing it specifically, not just setting it to the current date manually - in order to update or even just play a holiday that's been unlocked. I'd imagine that'll be the case this time as well.
Ok thanks, that was what I thought so another question If I was to say yes to Kyle moving then go back in time to the correct the day would that force Kyle to be in boxes like it would if you go forward a day? Or would he be gone?
