[QUOTE="GabeCastroYo, post: 1536922, member: 190293"] This sounds like such an easy fix, but I'm having a hard time turning off the auto-arrange setting on my desktop. It just randomly started doing this out of the blue and I never selected auto arrange. Every time I drag an image or file onto my desktop it auto-arranges it :Shouting: I have my view option settings set to "none" but it still wants to act up. I tried restarting my computer but still no luck. My next step was resetting the PRAM or SMC restart...But, I wanted to know if there were any other options I could do or if you would recommend me doing a PRAM or SMC restart. I feel the PRAM won't do anything but it's worth a shot. My OS is up to date, OS X Lion Version 10.8.4 [/QUOTE]
