Can't change time interval for lockscreen password I have Ventura 13.0.1 installed on an M2 Macbook Air and it won't let me change the time for entering a password when the screensaver is activated. It is set to 5 minutes. I have an admin account. It workes (I can install other programs, and system settings takes the input). But the value doen't change from 5 minutes. I've tried setting it to an hour, or switching it of. Nothing works. This setting is changeable as you would expect on my 21" iMac btw, just not on the Air.

Open System Preferences > Energy Saver. Change "Turn display off after:" to a time you would prefer.
