After rebooting, Desktop icons rearranged to right screen in OS X Lion

[Ooghavanth]

Since the update to OS X Lion. Each reboot some icons on the desktop I run all aligned in columns on the right side of the screen. I will reorganize the way they want. For the few who are well restart. Then bang, on the next reboot are all aligned on the right side of the screen again. I thought it was a mistake that could have been fixed in 10.7.1, but no, it just happened again. Any idea how to get my icons to stay?

Same trouble. I know I should fresh my desk, Nevertheless I actuality like to have current files organized and easily reached / visible there. If the operating system continues to move them, I cannot locate them.

Same trouble since upgrading to Lion (and now 10.7.1).It's annoying, and makes a difficult job. On the desktop I have about 50 icons arranged the way I like. It is impossible to manually move these back to where I want them every day. It also occurs in some folders.

The trouble exists on my iMac Core i7 (27 "mid-2010) nevertheless not in my Macbook Pro (13" in mid-2009).

I have the same trouble. I tried the following, but what is happening yet.I left, linked to another account, and delete the following files via the command line and sudo:

/ Desktop /DS_Store
/ Library / Preferences / com.apple.finder.plist
/ Library / Preferences / com.apple.finder.plist.lockfile
/ Library / Preferences / com.apple.desktop.plist
/ Library / Preferences / com.apple.desktop.plist.lockfile

Do not be on familiar terms why this worked for me, but you be able to attempt right-clicking the desktop and select Sort by ToGrid Snap. Now right click again and this time Sort by select none.

I do not be familiar with, nevertheless regained be in charge of icon placement after revolving through this work out.

I found that unchecking "open the windows to re-enter" at the close seems to resolve the trouble.

And, looking back, the only problem that started about the same time, as I checked the box (as originally had been selected almost straight away after installation of Lion)

I am having the same trouble this morning; all very well organized my desktop icons on my desktop have been reorganized into two columns on the right side. I already saw a post that said something about the organization must be set to none, so I tried that and it solved the problem a few weeks, but now it's happening again.

'Reopening the windows to enter' was investigated, but found that when using In Design over a network if you do not check the box that would ruin all my links in the network, very wrong, somehow creates a bond Updates, so if I restart and verify that the junction box I just created does not work and I cannot find my files. I cannot believe that Apple hasn’t sorted this trouble yet.

I have the same trouble with both my desktop and my Mac Air .I talked to tech-savvy and have solutions, although nothing actually work.

[Vitel]

I renounce it, and will have to wait for Apple to fix it. I tried all the suggestions out there - Snap to grid, clear the box to open the windows, delete all preference files application imaginable - and while they may work for a couple of days, eventually icons end on the right side of the screen.

I wonder why only affects my Mac at work. My Mac at home is not affected. I just anticipate it stays that way.

Fix this Stuff- icons align every once in a while (every 7 days) on the right - which has happened on a Macbook pro late 2008 updated snow leopard and a new Mac mini with 2.7GHz Core i7 factory installed lion - the fire of the bag 25 years of age who designed these options shower stupid .

Operating system should be fully controllable. This is not the status of implementation of savings and reopens the windows after you log back in. I customizable and has been working customizations - snow leopard was a work of art board behaved in this Stuff opens.
