need to at least tell us what set up you have.

Chain length should be largest gears + 1 whole link but it does sound like you need a chain device.

When shortening your chain remember to accomodate for chaingrowth during rear suspension compression, remove shock spring/air and compress the rear end before using Andy's rule.

Ps. once you've said your set-up, state which side of (which) chainring the chain falls off.
