If folders are moving on the Desktop it is probably because the View settings are set to keep them ordered in a particular way. For example if they are ordered by Date Created (or Modified) then when you add a new file or folder to the desktop the others will be moved to make way for it. This can be changed from the Finder's View menu Show View Options.
Similarly in an individual Finder window right click on some blank space and select the Arrange By option to specify how you want your files and folders ordered.

How do you restore the dock on mac os snow leopard it is just the finder and trash bin please help?
Icons in the Dock provide a link to quickly launch the applications you use the most. To add icons to the Dock you can either drag the application out of the Applications folder window into the Dock or launch the application, with a double click, and then click and hold on the icon in the Dock and select Keep In Dock from the Options menu that pops up. If you are confident working in the Terminal (in the Utilities folder within the Applications folder) you can delete the Dock's preferences called com.apple.dock.plist and com.apple.dock.db found in the Preferences folder within the Library folder and then enter the command: killall Dock in the Terminal which will create a new Dock with the default set of icons.

I cant change mac os x application icon because it just pastes the icon file not the actual image into the get info box im trying to make all my applications have a relflective icon?
I don't understand--why would you want to change the application icon? It is just an icon of a folder labeled "Applications." What are you trying to do? If you want to replace icons for individual applications rather than the icon for the Applications folder and you are using a set of icons with an .icns extension you can right click on the application's icon, select Show Package Contents from the menu, and open the Resources folder. In the Resources folder is the original applicationName.icns file. Move this original file somewhere safe (or better still make a copy of the application to experiment with) and then put your icon set in the Resources folder and rename it to whatever the original icon set was called. The application will then use your new icons.
