Can not stop Annoying iPhoto Selection Desktop

I tested Share desktop of 4 photos, then every several seconds my desktop keeps changing.
When I go to system preferences and change the desktop and screen saver to other static picture, it change to the pictures that I chose, but then after several seconds it loads from the "iPhoto Selection" folders from the desktop.
How to turn this thing off?
Thanks,
Jerry

Jerry:
You can try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, located in your User/Library/Preferences folder.
2 - if #1 doesn't work delete the com.apple.desktop.plist preference file also located in your User/Library/Preferences folder.
One of the two should reset it back to the default setting.

I updated iPhoto 9.1.3, and I can not 'to open iPhoto

I updated iPhoto 9.1.3, and I can not 'to open iPhoto (I said that I need to update the library) ... ... hours ... minutes pass and nothing happens.
Given that I'll '20gb photo and a short video, so I do not have a big library..., remained all night to update the database, but still nothing ... someone I can' help ..?

Well that's an easy fix:
Restart your mac and try launch iPhoto again.
If that fails:
Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
Look there for a file called ‘iPhoto’Lock.data or similar. Drag it to the Desktop. Make no other changes. Start iPhoto. Does that help?

How can I stop Lion tidying my desktop and putting all my icons in alphabetical order. I like my files to stay where I put them!

How can I stop Lion tidying my desktop and putting all my icons in alphabetical order. I like my files to stay where I put them! Every morning I boot up and all my desktop items have been moved. How can I stop this?
By the way - Lion is the worst 'upgrade' ever.

Hello again:
I've been to 'view' - and all I can see are the same options as before. Nothing which says the equivalent of 'stop Lion tidying my desktop alphabetically every time I boot up' - alas.
Hmmm. Try something:
Trash a preference file (com.apple.finder.plist) and restart. Then go to the view option while in Finder. There should be a "show view options." Select that and sort by "none."
FWIW, I have had no discernable change in speed under OS X 10.7, but that is just my system. I only use Adobe's free stuff. Have you checked with Adobe to see if there are updates available? I rarely use text edit so I have no benchmark. I don't like the missing save as either

P.S. I am not being contrary - I just like to learn from the experiences of others.

I can not STOP THE MUSIC that is currently playing.

I can not STOP THE MUSIC that is currently playing Looking for a music app or a way to let me stop the music that is playing. I have asked this over and over all over the internet and no one has an answer. I enjoy my music for a while but when it is time to STOP THE MUSIC I have found but one way - Turn off or power down the device. This is so annoying I have stopped playing and stopped purchasing any and all music of any type. If I can not find a way to do so I will remove all music from my devices until I may hear of how to STOP THE MUSIC. I have seen it is done on Android devices but no Apple devices. If there proves to never be a way to STOP THE MUSIC I will surely sell all 5 of my iPhones, iPads and iPad Minis and finally give up on Apple ever truly caring about their users.

Wwell, maybe it is just me. I have been using and have bought 7 Apple devices just over the past 3-5 years. Having supported, programmed, configured and taught college level courses for MS based and super computer hardware and software configurations for almost 20 years I am apparently ignorant of differential operations. Previously I had 5 choices on any hardware or software when playing anything like music, video, DVDs or anything similar. I had 'Play' 'Fast Forward' 'Fast Rewind' 'Pause' a n d 'STOP'. Perhaps Apple has found the STOP unnecessary but I thoro enjoyed knowing whatever I was playing had STOPped and could not continue unless I chose to go back to the program or equipment and chose any of the 5 choices except STOP again since I could not STOP a STOP. As I said perhaps I need to reconsider my choices and obvious ignorance. Thanks for all the help.

Replying to my own post - heh. I downloaded iExplorer (http://www.macroplant.com/iexplorer/) which allowed me access to the files on the phone and there was the phantom movie in the DCIM folder. Deleted it, and all is well - although I still have 0.65gb of Other in iTunes.....

Are you trying to open it from the Dock? If so, try opening it directly from the Applications folder. Any change?

I can not open my Iphoto library it says it is either used by another application or has become unreadabe. I shut down and restart an then open Iphoto again but nothing is their.

These are your options:
1. Restore the iPhoto library from the most recent backup that predates the issue.
2. Repair or rebuild the library.
3. Scavenge the library with iPhoto Library Manager independently of iPhoto (Library ▹ Rebuild). Books, calendars, and slideshows won't be preserved.

Content and Apple IDs -
Content is forever tied to the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple ID to another. Apple does not merge Apple IDs. You will never be able to access your content bought with one Apple ID with a new Apple ID.

What to do? If I need new application, which is the best ?

Have you upgraded iPhoto to the current version (9.5.1)?
Have you failed to allow your previous iPhoto library to be upgraded?
Have you tried holding the "option" key while opening iPhoto to point to your iPhoto library?
