I have been having trouble with my Mac. I made a new user account in attempt to solve a problem with free memory going inactive and requiring a constant purge. I figured the issue resides in the crap dropbox app. I set up a new user account and now I'm having some more pain-in-the-ass trouble.


My desktop icon layout is resetting every time I reboot..

Before:



After:




Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

Love, ring.

First, stop worrying about memory. The engineers who wrote the OS know what they're doing better than you do.

Second, see if this help your desktop icon problem: https://discussions.apple.com/message/15779186#15779186
