    Quit System Preferences if it's running. In the Finder, hold down the option key and select Go ▹ Library from the menu bar. From the Library folder, delete the following item, if it exists:

     

    Caches/com.apple.systempreferences

     

    and move the following item to the Desktop:

       

    Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist

       

    Launch System Preferences and test. If you still have the issue, put the item on the Desktop back where it came from and post again. Otherwise, delete the item.
