I am at a loss of what to do next with my screen saver. I had decided to use the itunes album art option as my screen saver and when I went to change a few options to the number of pics on the screen and how long before they would change it quit on me. I had already changed it a couple times earlier and it was working but I wanted to make the pics a little smaller.

Now I can't even open the screen saver with out retrying 3 times. Then it brings me to the desktop and I can go into the screen saver tab, but when I make a change it won't recognize it. I can't even change to another screen saver type... It keeps giving me the album art. I got a window that asked if I wanted to use the old options or new. I picked new and still that didn't change the settings..!! ??

I restarted the computer and that didn't help. Then I went and repaired the permissions. Nothing...

Still not working and I have no idea what to do.

Any opinions?
 
Use spotlight and find your screensaver plist file. Will be something like this:

com.apple.screensaver.xxxxxx

Move it to your desktop and try again. If all works, trash the old file.
