System Pref Lock No Working
Inside System Prefs > Security & Privacy, I can check and uncheck the Require password for sleep and screen saver [ immediately ] pref with the lower left lock, locked.
And unfortunately the remote login program I use (SplashTop) when I login to my Mac whether with my iPad, iPhone or MBP, this checks that password option so that every time my computer sleeps, I have to enter my computer PW to release the screen saver. Being that this is a home computer, this level of security is not needed. So, it's just an annoyance.
I assume this lock issue always happened but it wasn't until the last update of Splashtop, that I noticed it. Since I can check/uncheck this checkbox manually, I'm assuming the issue is not caused by Splashtop, unless their server software is the culprit so since it's installed, the lock is just not functional.
OR… the lock was never functional and Splashtop's odd bug brought it to light.
OK.. all that said, anyone know if this is a know Lion bug? Is there a way to make the lock work?
Thx,
Steven
