    iphoto problem on a macbook pro, all my updates are up to date
    hopefully its just me being stupid and somebody can help

    I can only view iphoto in full screen mode, every time i click on full screen in the bottom left to exit into normal, iphoto disappears off the screen to the right,when i try clicking on it when its highlighted it just disappears off to screen right again
    when i have closed it down and tried to open it by clicking on the icon it opens but off screen
    I then have to click on the view tab and back to full screen

    any ideas anybody

    Thanks in advance

    The fullscreen on/off option is at the top right. Move the cursor up to the top right and the menu bar should drop down like this:

    Click the blue square with the 2 arrows on it and it should resize to regular view.

    As for going off to the right:

    Right click the iPhoto icon in the dock and select Options > This Desktop

    To be honest, it is kinda hard to work out exactly the issue you are having, but it should be fixable.

    When viewing in full screen mode, just use the “esc” key to return to the thumbnail preview.

    That just makes it go off to the right of the screen ?

    Try “alt/cmd/T” when viewing in full screen mode to see if that reverts it back to a thumbnail view?
    Doesn’t sound normal though.

    That’s what it’s meant to do. Moving the cursor into the bottom left is supposed to reveal the empty desktop. Have you checked the hot-corners in preferences? I’m not at my Mac right now otherwise I’d do you a walkthrough. Look in System Preferences and/or Google Lion OSX hot corners. Here’s a video I found that may help…
