Spinning ball

When I try to delete something from my desktop it just stays stuck amd doesn’t delete . When I try to open a photo on my desktop the spinning ball appears right away . This is a brand new Mac air 2021 lots of ram lots of room . Sometimes the images on the desktop disappear amd I have to restart the computer. What’s wrong ?

Suddenly, problems dragging items onto my desktop Working on a 2.5 year old MacBook Air running Monterey v. 12.5.1. No problems at all until this week when all of sudden I cannot grab icons and drag the doc/image/whatever onto my desktop (or anywhere). Incredibly annoying. Is there a fix?

desktop image disappears, restarting fixes only temporarily Under 'System Preferences' I choose a background/desktop image I've used many times. Shows up fine, no problem. Later the same day - sometimes almost immediately - the image disappears and there's just a blank desktop. If I restart the image shows up again, but will shortly disappear. This is a small matter, but I find it unsettling to be staring at a big blank screen. Any help much appreciated.

Hi,

Try to start up your Mac in Safe Mode then normal boot could solve the issue.
