I have a new MBP with 10.9 installed on it. I normally work by swapping between desktops that have a specific function (like one has Mail.app and Cal.app running on it). Once I started using mavericks I noticed that when I'd click on a dock icon, the order of the desktops is rearranged. I do not think this is how things worked on 10.7, but as I no longer have that machine, I can't confirm.

Is there a way to disable this behavior because it's very annoying.

See if this works for you.

  1. Launch System Preferences and click on Mission Control.
  2. Uncheck the box next to Automatically rearrange spaces based on most recent use.
  3. Close out System Preferences.

With the automatic rearrangement disabled, Mission Control will again remember your app and desktops placement and not reorder them on it’s own.
