Does not work as Screen Saver

andymac · 02-16-2003, 03:33 PM

Purchased OSX version yesterday and it works fine on desktop, but when I save it in the appropriate Library and go to system prefs it is no where to be found on the Screen Savers list. Messed around with permissions in UNIX but no luck..
Please Help
Thanks

andymac: If your sure it?s in the right location (Library/Screen Savers) you may want to check that the folder wasn?t accidentally renamed. If it was renamed i.e. Marine Aquarium.sav instead of Marine Aquarium.saver it wont show up at all in the System Preferences.
