MacBook Pro Screensaver not coming on

No matter what I do, I cannot get my MacBook Pro screen saver to activate. On battery and on power adapter. Won't turn off display either.

G'day mtc_epa,


If we understand correctly, your screensaver is not activating and your display doesn't appear to be sleeping. If that's right, the steps in this link might help to identify what's preventing your Mac from sleeping: If your Mac sleeps or wakes unexpectedly


The link above covers a number of possibilities. Check those out, and let us know what you find.


Cheers.
