[QUOTE="Teufelhunde389, post: 299908, member: 23987"] Hey guys, I was testing out all the screen savers in my new MBP. I was playing around with the options for the album art screen saver and I set the number of rows to 2 so i could see what it looked like. After hitting 'ok', i got an error that says 'The application System Preferences quit unexpectedly.' So i hit 'reopen' and when i went back to the screen saver settings it instantly closed the system prefs and i got an error message that said 'The application System Preferences closed unexpectedly after it was reopened.' So i clicked on 'Try Again' and clicked on the screen saver prefs again. This time I could open them and change them so i changed the album artwork screen saver number of rows back to 5. Finally, after closing the system prefs., i got a message that says 'System Preferences - New Settings - New settings have been created for this application. Do you wish to use these settings from now on?' with the options 'Use new settings' and 'Use original settings.' I clicked on 'Use new settings' but when i start the screen saver, it is showing up as 2 rows. And when i go back to system prefs, the entire cycle happens again. I know, long description, but I am really at a loss of what to do. Im not sure how I broke it. I am new to macs but am fairly computer literate and i just cant figure out what happened. I have restarted the comp but no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot! ~Jim [/QUOTE]
