iTunes screensaver doesn't work

Hi. After I have set MacOS Mojave on my Mac, the iTunes screensaver stopped work. It doesn't react on my clicking and the music is not playing but iTunes opens. 😟 I love this screensaver but it doesn't work anymore. Just music covers on the screen and I can't play them as well as before.

MacBook Pro with Retina display, macOS Mojave (10.14)

screensaver is not starting, when itunes is running/on When music is playing on iTunes, the screensaver is not starting. When iTunes is off, the screensaver comes up automatically after 20min. I have an MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013), MacOS High Sierra (v 10.13.6), iTUNES 12.8.3.1. Since I bought my MacBook it became significantly and annoyingly slower with updates, so I would like to not update to a higher/later macOS. Thank you very much for checking on my issue! Any ideas to fix this are wellcome.

iTunes Artwork Screensaver: Shows Black Screen, Doesn't Work Hello, My iTunes Artwork Screensaver does not work anymore. It shows a black screen, there is no longer any illustrations, the only thing shown is the Exit button in the lower right corner. I'm on macOS Mojave. My iTunes Library is correctly set up. I've tried deleting the album artwork cache so that it could be build from scratch, but it did not fix the problem. I deleted a folder called "iLife Media Support" by accident from my Application Support folder. Can anyone please help me? It's the second time that happens to me. First time, I solved it by copying back the iLife Media Support folder from another Mac back into my Application Support folder. I tried this again, but it did not work this time. I also tried creating another user and it does not work either. Thanks.

MacOS update 10.15.2 Screen Saver & Apple Music I updated Catalina yesterday to 10.15.2. All seemed to be fine. I played some music (via Apple Music) and subsequently realised that the screen saver hadn't started; this was the case several times. I happened to stop Apple Music and noticed the screen saver started. Since then this is the case every time. Anyone else experienced this?

All I can do is verify the issue. I never used it in previous versions of mac OS but it certainly doesn't play now.

I never used the iTunes screen saver before but after testing it this morning it doesn't play on mine either.

iTunes is playing well just cant play through screen saver option.
