Hi. Does anyone know how to get out of the Album Artwork screensaver? With any other screen saver, all I have to do is jiggle the mouse, but this one... I move the mouse and click around and eventually the Exit button pops up, but I can never figure out how to reliably bring up that button. This is on Ventura, if that's relevant.

Thanks for any help!
 
I've just tried it in Ventura, and tapping the Space Bar works every time. Using the mouse just gives me a "Play" button on whatever album I'm over.

Thanks. Forgot to mention I want to find a way to do it just using the mouse. I'm using this Mac basically as a TV/media player, and controlling it with a wireless mouse from bed. The keyboard is way, way over there! :p

Yes, that would be a bit of a problem, I have that setup as well with an old MBP

Having a play around, I've found that the first movement of the mouse does nothing, buy the next does bring up the Exit button.
