Is anyone else having issues getting screensavers and the lock screen to work after installing Mavericks?

I recently installed Mavericks and now my computer refuses to lock after sleep. Instead of a box that asks for a password to access the computer again, it just opens up back to where it was before sleep. In fact, I can't even get my screensaver to work. I have the screensaver set to one minute (to attempt to get it to work) and it wouldn't even come on. The sleep/lock screen is set to ask for password as soon as it's woken. Same goes for when I open my laptop after it's last use. No password, just instantly on. Is anyone else having this issue? If so, how can I fix it? Thanks!

I had the exact same problem.. and thank you for the answer..
It actually makes sense, but I had the 'bouncing camera' problem and never thought of the 'slide'..
Dohhhhh
cheers for the post

  • Is anyone else having to reload adobe to view videos on you tube after installing Mavericks?

    Every so often I get a message that says adobe is out of date.  After reloading 4 times now, the videos on You Tube still do not work.
    Is this a mavericks issue?

    I'm running Mavericks & couldn't get Flash Player to work, all I got was a white video screen. Tried every that I read, downloaded Flash Player to Safari, Firefox & Chrome to no avail. Don't know why, but I decided to check my  DNS & IP address, I had at one time added a proxy server & I think I may have messed up. Well all I did was google my "internet server's name & what is my IP Address". Up came the server's name with an IP address & a secondary one. I deleted the address that was in my network settings & added the two new addresses I was given, Wow!!!!!! it was magic, Flash Player was back in all three browers. Just go into System Preference click on Network go to Advanced click on DNS & do what I did, I read that IP Addresses change sometimes, so good luck it should work.

  • Is anyone else having issues with "skipping" while the songs are playing?! It is very aggravating to us... and we've had it going on for several months now.  Any ideas at all how to fix it?

  • Anyone else having issue getting the "swipe up" to work to access control center on Iphone5?

    Hi, just upgraded to IOS7 on both my Iphone5 and 3rd Gen Ipad.  While I can easily swipe up to get into Control Center on Ipad, same is not at all true for the Iphone5.  Takes about ten tries to get the control center to open by swiping up on Iphone5, whether on home screen or lock screen.  Anyone else having this issue?  Wonder if there is a way to fix it (reinstall IOS 7 I guess somehow?).  Control Center is a great improvement, but not if I can't open it!

    Well, see here for another guy who had same issue:

  • Anyone else having issues with cpu and disk io?

    I have an hp pavilion 500-424. it has a 2.0 ghz quadcore amd and 12 gb of memory. it came installed with windows 8.1 *(which i game on). so what i did was pull out the hard-drive and formatted and older drive to put in and install windows 10 on....i wanted
    it to be the best experience i could possibly have. what i found was that windows 10 was using anywhere from 50% to 70% of my cpu and my disk was pretty much always st 100%. so it was slow and hung up allot. the drive i put win10 on was a seagate st3120213as.
    i looked up the specs thinking maybe the data transfer rate wasn't fast  enough but its supposed to have a transfer rate of 300MBps.   it became so annoying that i pulled the drive and put my original back in until i can come up with some sort of
    solution.  i am open to any suggestion anyone might have on correcting this issue. 

    I ran into a similar problem. I took the upgrade path from WIN 7 to WIN 10.
    Before going down the upgrade path I cloned a separate drive to preserve my original WIN 7 installation.
    After upgrading to WIN 10 The system would eventually lock up and require a hard shutdown and reboot. I investigated via Task Manager and observed where the DISK I/O would max out at 100% and shortly thereafter the system would lock up. I
    did a fresh reinstall of WIN 10 from scratch on the same system and found that everything worked fine. So, I cloned a drive one more time and went down the upgrade path again and was finally able to isolate the problem child that was causing the DISK I/O to
    max at 100%.
    After going through a long list of potential applications that could be causing the problem by removing them one by one before the system would lock up, I finally arrived at the ACRONIS software. In my case it was the ACRONIS 14 software that came with my
    Crucial SSD. I installed the ACRONIS 14 software in the WIN 7 environment and there it works just fine. However, after upgrading to WIN 10 it caused havoc. Once the ACRONIS 14 software was removed, the WIN 10 upgrade seems just fine and so far
    has been stable.
    I hope this helps anyone having the same issue. Good luck!

  • Anyone else having issues with messages and alerts being delayed on their iPhone 5?

    Numerous times now, I have received message alerts from various apps but mostly iMessage on my iPad long before they ever show up on my iPhone 5. Then when I open iMessage on my iPhone, the messages start arriving, even though I have already had them on my iPad for sometime. Often, I will get a notification on my iPhone five that I have received a message. But then, when I open iMessage, there is no message at first, but after a while it will finally come through.

    I've had no problems with Facebook on my iPhone 5 but here are a couple of suggestions.
    1. Quit Facebook like I describe then reset the iPhone. Double click the Home button to show the screen with running and recently used apps. Each app icon will have a sample page above it. Flick up on the page (not the app icon) and the page will fly away and the app icon will disappear. This quits that app. Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart.
    2. If the first thing doesn't help, quit Facebook again, delete Facebook, and reset the iPad. After the iPad restarts use the App Store app to download Facebook again.

  • Anyone else having issues with AppleTV and 10.7

    My AppleTV is continuously breaking connections when watching movies since I'ne downloaded 10.7.
    I have to go back in to the setup and renew the computer connection to correct it.  Sometimes
    it holds for 30 minutes and other times it breaks the connection a couple of minutes.
    I did not have this issue before loading 10.7.

    An additional comment......  this problem is only happening when connected to my computer through iTunes. I can paly Netflix movies fine.  It happens with both movies I have purchased on iTunes and movies I have downloaded onto iTunes from my DVD's

  • Is anyone else having issues with suri on the 5s when the phone is locked?

    I have mine disabled, but it still is opening suri when I'm tyring to utilize the finger print scanner.  What can I do to fix this?

    Where do you have yours disabled?
    Do you have Settings>General>Passcode & Fingerprint and under Allow Access When Locked, Siri set to OFF?
    If you have the above set to off, this is going to sound silly, but use a different finger and Siri will not activate when in locked mode. I think this might be a bug.

  • Anyone else having issues with third party changers saying "this accessory not supported". I get it every time I plug my phone. It only started after the iOS 7 updates

    Anyone else having issues with third party changers saying "this accessory not supported". I get it every time I plug my phone. It only started after the iOS 7 update?

    That's because part of iOS7 had code in it to look for and recognize unsigned cables.
    In other words, Apple knew that people used non-signed ones and didn't care....until last month when they decided to care. People with iOS6 and lower should experience no issues (unless Apple patches those iOS versions) but folks with iOS7 will need to deal with it.

  • HT4623 Is anyone else having issues with scaling down photos to fit the screen for home and lock screens with ios7??

    Is anyone else having issues with scaling down photos to fit the screen for home and lock screens with ios7??  Installed ios7 this morning. Tried to use one of my photos from camera roll as background for lock screen and I can't scale the photo to fit the screen.  Never had a problem before and now when I pinch the photo to get it to the right size of the screen, it won't stay that way. The photo is enlarged way beyond the screen size so it doesn't look right. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Hello, cliffiapp4.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    Here are the steps that I would recommend going through when experiencing this issue.  
    Resolution
    If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
    If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
    If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
    iOS: Not responding

  • Is anyone else having issues if they purchased a Season and it is NOW not allowing downloads without charging again

    is anyone else having issues if they purchased a Season and it is NOW not allowing downloads without charging again
    I get my email to download then ... it won't.   I go to the store and its showing charges again... rather than PURCHASED

    Not just you. I too am having this issue including with a movie I just purchased.
    If you follow mario49's advice they will eventually help you by posting the purchases to your account again (not actually fixing the current issue) but be VERY specific with them and be prepared to explain your issue about 4 times (I have taken to just copy and pasting) before they actually read what you told them and help out.
    e-mail 1: Response was to explain the difference between a season pass and individual orders (even though I attached the season pass order number to the issue message).
    e-mail 2: Reponse explained how to redownload episodes again (even though I had clearly stated it was a latest episode on a season pass).
    e-mail 3: I may have yelled a little bit here.
    e-mail 4: This one was a complaint about the pre-order that was charged but also now giving me the "you haven't paid for this" message. I attached the earlier complaint # to this one and got they same service person. This time he re-posted every episode from the above season pass to my account and my movie so I got the new episode I was looking for and about 5 others I was not.
    Now I just have to go through all of this for my other 11 season passes that won't download either.
    Good Luck.

    PS is it just me or does everyone get the impression Apple has now farmed out thier customer service to Mircosoft?

  • TS1702 Is anyone else having issues with the most recent Facebook update? I updated it yesterday and now it won't open. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app, but it still fails to open! Any suggestions?

    Is anyone else having issues with the most recent Facebook app update? I updated it on my iPad 2 yesterday, now it will not open app at all. I have restarted iPad, uninstalled app and reinstalled, several times and still it will not work! Any suggestions? I have also closed the append still no results!

    I just started having this yesterday.  It's only happened twice, but it's annoying.  My wife texted me that she was coming home last night, and it showed up immediately on my iPod Touch but not my iPhone. I opened my iPhone and it soon updated.  Worked fine after that.  Then just a moment ago today my wife texted me and the same thing happened.  I heard my iMac and iPod Touch receive the message but it didn't display on my phone until I opened the phone and it showed up again a little bit thereafter.  I suppose I'll send Apple some feedback on this issue.

  • Is anyone else having issues with purchased songs? I bought several songs and only 1:30 downloaded

  • Anyone else having issue with ipod scrubber bar?

    Anyone else having issue with the ipod scrubber bar? Can rarely get the thing to appear, sometimes it works, sometimes it does not. Then, once it's open, good luck making it go away.
    Anyone else notice any funky, non-responsive, inconsistent behavior?

    So you're having trouble just tapping the album artwork when a song is playing and the scrubber doesn't toggle on and off?
    I'm not getting this funky behavior with 2.1.
