Despite adjusting settings for the screensaver several times, it does not start when the MacBook is left. This has only started happening since I upgraded to the latest version of Ventura. Any idea what is happening?
Thanks, Tony.
MacBook Pro 13″, 11.6

Glad to hear I'm not the only one (but sorry you're having to deal with this too!). I've since found it only happens when I have my big screen plugged in. Macbook by itself happily goes to screensaver at the set time. We can nly hope that the next tweak of Ventura sees the issue fixed.
I'm using a Mac Studio. I had a look at my M2 MBA and the screen saver worked there as usual. So that tells me the issue is with attached displays (and your comments, Holliew2, confirm this). Yes, looking forward to the next Ventura update with this hopefully fixed!
Happening to me also, I was checking to see if Ventura had new screensavers and didn't see any but tried the Ken Burns one and get either black screen or pics from other savers. I only got Ventura yesterday so hope no other issues.
See if the screen saver starts while in Safe Mode. If it does, you have a third-party app preventing sleep.
System Setting >> Lock Screen category
Adjust the " Start Screen Saver when inactive " timing
Thanks for the response, but I made sure to adjust this. I set it at 5 minutes, but to no effect.
Thanks for both these replies. I will first see if it happens in safe mode, then possibly generate a ticket with Support. cheers.
Welcome.
Yeah, I sort of inferred that from the context ;-)
👍
Same here, this happened to me ONLY after updating to Ventura 13.3.
It shouldn't be a third-party issue since it only started after updating, I would guess.
With latest version of Ventura (13.3.1) the problem seems to have gone, even with the cinema display connected.
That's the version I downloaded a few days ago. Not a big deal to me I just used my old screen saver.
Screen saver will not start
