As I said, it definitely 100% is a screen saver. I even have enough vision to tell this, guaranteed.
And I do have it set for the screen not to lock, nor to require a password on wakeup. Chris. ----- Original Message ----- From: Jonathan C.

I have gone into the energy saver preferences and have made sure to tell the mac not to ever go to sleep, and have also set the screen not to dim on AC, nor on battery, etc. Some of you may say that was really stupid a me! That's a real good way to ruin my mac quickly. I'm not here to argue that one way or another. My point is, I also have gone under the desktop and screen saver settings, and have set the screen saver to never activate. The weird thing is, after about 30 minutes of no activity, it still keeps coming on. Try as I may I can't get the stupid thing to deactivate! I've checked every single setting that I know under the sun to look at. Everything appears to be set correctly. My other macbook which also is running El Capitan 10.11.1 is not having this problem that I can tell. Neither is my mac mini. OK, granted, the mini is not on 10.11. It's only on Yosemite 10.10.5, but, still. Does anyone know what the heck might be going on here? This is about to make me scream! Which I guess, wouldn't be such a bad thing, considerring what day it is. LOL! Just kidding. Seriously though, any ideas?
