Screen Saver Problem/bug?

I'm really enjoying leopard. I've only found two minor problems/issues. One is Ichat backgrounds, but I why its not doing what it should and why. The problem I'm trying to Figure out is the screen saver. Specifically the Itunes screen saver. They will load/display up individually fine (loading into the screen saver and in Itunes), but when the screen save tiles them they all appear with a red hue. (Tiger worked fine). Has anyone else had this problem? can it be fixed adjusted (easily)

I've got the same problem on my iMac 20" (Intel 2.0 GHz Core Duo), BUT, the problem occurs on my +*second monitor*+ (over DVI) all the time, but only on some pictures on my main (built in) monitor.
I've tried to create a new Color Profile for the second monitor, but this did not solve the problem.
The problem is also only visible when the screensaver is fully loaded (during the 'loading' of pictures, the color is okay).
I've created a screenshots to my main and external monitor here:

Main monitor (all okay, except for 1 image):

  • Screen Saver Disappearance bug/glitch

    This post is more of a reassurance that this bug didn't just happen to me and would like to see how many other people have encountered this "bug". (I am not sure if I should call this a bug or glitch.)
    I have my screensaver set to the Word of the Day, and it usually works 95% of the time. The problem is sometimes it will start out as the word of the day screensaver but go black and have, in white letters, "Quartz Composer" (or something along those lines). I would go into system preferences, go under the screen savers, and find that these screen savers missing as options:
    Word of the Day
    Arabesque
    iTunes Artwork
    RSS Visualizer
    Shell
    Spectrum
    Flurry and Computer Name were the only two options left. At first I was a little concerned that somehow the missing screen savers got deleted. Then I tried my luck by restarting my Mac. I go back to the screen saver tab and all of the missing ones reappear. As I stated earlier, I don't have a problem 95% of the time, but this weird glitch has appeared three times. I worry this will become a reoccurring problem.
    Has this happened to anyone else?

    Yes, this just happened to me this morning. I ran software update and also restarted my computer and they were all back. I was also wondering if this was just me and that's why I came here to look if it happened to anyone else.

  • ITunes album art screen saver problem

    Hi, recently when I use my iTunes album art work as a screen saver the albums have a purple tint to them. It hasn't always been like that so if anyone could help it would be greatly appreciated.

    Just thought I'd let you know that you're not alone. I've tried everything i could think of to fix this problem. The only thing that worked was re-installing the os
    and not messing with the settings. But that's not really an option. I only found that out because i got a little delete happy while screwing with my mac.

  • Album artwork/screen saver problem

    I having a similar problem too like most on here, but it has a slight twist to it. This is just recent happened to me and I am not sure if any other people on here has experienced it. I was adding some music and my iTunes loaded the music into my library. Then all over sudden it decided to just crash, I didn't think nothing of it. Tried to reopen it crashed, crashed, and crashed. I started panicing so i restarted the computer, but that is when i released what happened.
    I didn't notice this small problem until my album artwork slide show screen saver started.Somehow or way my iTunes has lost all over its Album artwork in it's folders, BUT.... it's still there on the albums and so forth. So what is the deal? I scanned for viruses i came up with none and I verified the DISK and reparied it everything was okie. But right as I was scanning for viruses the 1st time the whole OSX crashed. Which was the reason see if the HFS Volume 1 had problems but it did not. So has anyone experienced this problem yet? Or is it telling me I should move on and get me a new Mac soon?

    If you post the problem in a new discussion with a new title, someone will be able to help you out. I doubt you need a new computer, try everything and with some luck you will be OK. There are others who will be able to get you quickly fixed right, I am not the best at the problems you are having.

  • Screen saver problem. Yosemite

    Help please. I keep having to go back into Screen Saver to reselect the iphoto album I want it to run. It works for a few cycles, or sometimes only once, then switches back to National Geographic slides. Grr.

    Back up all data. Quit System Preferences if it's running.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it, then copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    ~/Library/Preferences/ByHost
    In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return. A folder should open. If it does, look for a file with a long name that begins "com.apple.screensaver". There may be several such files. Move them all to the Trash.
    Log out or restart the computer. Test. If the problem is resolved, empty the Trash and recreate your settings in the Screen Saver tab.

  • Annoying Screen Saver Problem

    I have set up a separate file that contains photographs to be used as my screen saver. Most of the photos display properly, but I have a few that get cropped in such a manner that you cannot see a person's head etc etc. I did drag those pics into "Preview" and used the "tools" to resize those pics . . but nothing I do corrects the problem.
    Does anyone have a solution?
    T.Y.

    I thought about tweaking the resolution but my fear is that this might cause a problem with the pics that currently render themselves as they should! I have around 200 pics in this file to be used by the screen saver . . .less than 10 are giving me a problem . . so do you see my concern?
    Thanks . . . .

  • Picture Screen Saver Problems

    Sooo... i have set on my sreensaver to show my pictures from iPhoto. Well just recently, it started showing some of the pictures in realllly low resolution, making them all pixely, while some of the others are in their normal, higher resolution. I have no idea why its doing this.
    The only thing i can think of, is that i cleared my cache using cocktail. Would that cause a problem?
    Any suggestions? Help?

    I figured it out! So, in the screen saver settings. When you select where you want the pictures to be taken from "aka which folder", make sure its the "photos" option, and not the picture folder. For some reason, other random pics stored on your computer at other resolutions screw things up. Anywho, it worked for me! Give it a try.

  • System preference -- desktop and screen saver problem

    whenever i go into system preference and into the desktop and screen saver menu... the computer always freezes? with a spinning colored wheel ? can anyone tell me why... or should i bring it to the apple store to have the tech check it out?
    Thanks

    Could be that the prefs file has been hosed and it's getting stuck trying to write to it. Maybe delete the prefs file in /Users/username/Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist
    Re-start and see what happens. Likewise run permissions repair in case that is the problem.
    The spin event may also show up in your logs, so open 'console' in utilities and check for further info on why the Mac froze.

  • Photos Screen saver problems in Windows 7

    Photos screen saver crashes most of the time when I move the mouse to exit.
    Round circle, this application is not responding etc.
    This is pc  upgraded from Vista

    Hi sven253,
    Is there any third party screen saver software installed? If so, please uninstall it and see if the issue occurs.
    As Magon mentioned, Clean Boot is a good method to check if the issue is related to third party software and services. If the issue disappears in the Clean Boot environment, we can use a 50/50 approach to quickly narrow down which entry is causing the issue.
    Also, please test the Sample Pictures came with Windows 7 and see if the issue exists:
    1.     Right click on the Desktop and then click Personalize.
    2.     Click Screen Saver.
    3.     Select Photos and then click Settings…
    4.     Browse the folder to C:\Users\Public\Pictures\Sample Pictures
    5.     Click Save.
    6.     Click OK.
    What is the result? If the issue persists, please test if the issue occurs using other screen saver, such as 3D Text or Bubbles. However, if the issue does not occur using Sample Pictures, could you please provide the following information for further research?
    ·          What is the file types you are using? Are they .jpg file or .bmp files?
    ·          What are the file size of each photo?
    ·          How many files are there in photo folder?
    ·          When did the issue first occur? Did it occur after installing certain software or changing some hardware?
    Hope this helps.
    Regards,
    Linda

  • Screen Saver problems.

    I just bought a MacBook Pro with Retina Display. It shipped with OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.1. I set my screen saver to iTunes Artwork. I then downloaded 10.8.2. When I downloaded the newest version, it now says my iTunes library has no artwork. While my iTunes library has over 100 songs all bought from the iTunes store.

    A few other people have reported the same issue. It seems that the screensaver is not fully compatible with the new version of iTunes. I don't know of a workaround.

  • Screen saver problem - no .saver file

    I have been trying to download a HBO screensaver and the install doesn't work (See http://www.hbo.com/entourage/downloads/index.html and scroll down to "Entourage Screensaver"). I download and open the zip file and am left with only one file on my desktop: HBOScreensaverentourage. Double-clicking this file or adding .saver to the file does not work. Moving the file to Library/Screen Savers does not work either. I am opening up the .zip file with StuffIt Expander 10.0. I also tried other HBO screensavers and ran into the same problem. I realize this is a minor issue, but it has really been bugging me.

    As far as I can tell you must first download and install a special program for HBO screensavers, then download the file for the one you want. Since nothing wanted to work properly in Safari I have no idea where the special program is. Personally, I wouldn't do it. See this:
    http://www.hbo.com/screensaver/faq/popup_tech.html
    Considering that their so-called "known bug" mentions "Wallpaper" I kind of doubt they have much of clue about Macs...

  • Screen Saver Problem

    When the screensaver is circulating through photos, it recently began showing photos in really low resolution, and it never used too. Only thing i've done is reset my cache using cocktail.
    Anyone else have similar problems?

  • TS2972 Screen Saver problem.

    Cannot access computer file "My Pictures" on Apple TV.  Getting message "There are no photos in this album."  This worked prior to a software update done about 2 weeks ago.  Have sharing on in itunes and apple tv.  reset username and password in both.

    I don't really know how photos work on the Apple TV2, I suppose if it was smart it would resample a photo to a few Kb, but it may well not. As the Apple TV only has 8 Gb of storage and presumably needs most of that for it's system and a movie, it doesn't leave an awful lot left for storing the photos, so if those photos weren't resampled and were a high resolution to begin with, I suppose it may be limited to a few photos.
    I can't say for sure that all my photos are displayed in the screensaver but there's certainly a lot more than 50, but saying that many of my photos are quite old and as such were shot with cameras that only did 2.1 + MP. I also wonder if using aperture instead of iPhoto might make a difference too.
    Other than that, I don't have much more to offer.
