How can I get Spaces in OSX lion to look like Spaces in OSX Snow Leopard

I bought a new MacBookAIR. Used time capsule to import all my settings. Perfect!
However, the new setup of Spaces, is beyond annoying and absolutely unable to work with.
Does anyone know how to get the classic view of Spaces back in OS Lion?
I loved working with that. The active programs were very easy to remember since they had their own 'visual space reference' (upper left, lower right).
Now you only have a row, of which you need to remember which screen is on what number of the row and you now need to swipe through all the d..mn pages instead of navigating intuitively to a specific part of the screen (middle left, lower right etc).
I absolutely hate the new setup and hope somebody has an answer to this....I certainly hope, as an Apple fan, this solution comes quick..for one of the most beloved features now is pretty much dead to me..
Thanks all!

I have installed to Mountain Lion and have the same problem.... I'm content about many things in Mountain
Lion, but lack of Spaces frustrate me.
Since you upgraded, you can downgrade.

    I lost my Hard disk and had to replace it with a new one, how can I get another copy of lion OS, as the guy at the serive center installed 10.6 for me.
    P.S. I bought my macbook pro with preinstalled Lion OS

    If you have a way to wipe 10.6.8 off, you can then reboot your machine (with no OS) and since your system came preinstalled with Lion, Internet Recovery should occur which will boot to Apple's servers into a Recovery HD for you to redownload and install Lion.
    To be safe I would first make a clone of the current installation using Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper!. This way you have a way to recover.

    How can I get an image from the screen? Like screen printer in PC to pasting after in word or other program.

    If you do Cmd+Shift+3 you'll get a full screen image saved to your desktop as a jpg file.
    Also, you can use Cmd+Shift+4 and you'll get a cursor which you click+drag to draw a box. When you release the drag the boxed in area will be saved to the Desktop as a jpg file.

  • How can I get the standard Adobe CS4 sample templates, like the photo slideshow?  Thanks

    I just got Flash CS4.  I think it is supposed to have several categories of templates.  I only have the advertising category. How can I get the standard Adobe CS4 sample templates, like the photo slideshow? I cannot find anyplace on the Adobe.com site for template downloads.
    Thanks

    I have the same question-- I don't see any template categories apart from "Advertising"-- where are they?

    How can the image in "Develop" be made to look like what it will print, just as it is
    done in Photoshop with view>proof setup.

    Still wondering what tool is available in LR 1.1 to "view proof"
    As in Photoshop CS 3, and previous versions of PS, in view I can
    choose the custom .icc profile of the printer, to view what the final
    print will nearly perfectly appear like.
    What tool is available in LR 1.1 to do the same?

  • How can I fake my FROM email address to look like I'm sending it from work?

    I want to not have to log into my work webmail everyday and I want to just use MobileMe. I have all my work mail forwarded to MobileMe. The problem is that I don't want to ever have to log into work mail to send a message. How can I fake my from email address to look like I'm sending it from work?

    You can't do that with MobileMe. MobileMe's mail servers will only accept senders from their own domains (@mac.com and @me.com). No other senders, not even from configured personal domains, will be accepted.
    You will either have to use your companies SMTP server or, if not public available, your companies webmail.

  • How can I keep photos on iPod Touch from looking like color negatives?

    How can I keep photos on iPod Touch from looking like color negatives?

    You don't have to keep your photos in iPhoto to sync to your iPod according to Apple's website which states you can sync from folders in other locations:
    "Syncing Photos from a Mac
    To sync photos from iPhoto or a folder on your Mac:
    1. Connect your iPod to your computer and open iTunes.
    2. Select your iPod in the DEVICES section of the iTunes Source list.
    3. In the main iTunes browser window, select the Photos tab.
    4. Select the checkbox labeled "Sync photos from" and then choose either iPhoto, Aperture, Choose Folder, or Pictures, from the menu.
    * If you choose iPhoto, select "All photos and albums" to copy all of your photos in iPhoto, or "Selected albums only" and select individual rolls or albums you want to include.
    * If you choose Choose Folder, navigate to and select the folder of photos you want, then click Choose. Select "All photos" to copy all photos in the folder, or choose "Selected folders" to sync particular subfolders.
    * If you choose Pictures, choose "All photos" to copy all photos in the folder, or choose "Selected folders" to sync particular subfolders.
    5. If you want iTunes to also include the full-resolution versions of your photos, select the "Include full-resolution photos" checkbox. To access full-size photo files, be sure to enable your iPod for disk use.)
    6. Once you have decided which photos you'd like to sync, click Apply."
    Hope this helps!

  • When I plug in my iPod nano 4th gen to iTunes, a lot of space is taken up by 'other'. What is this and how can I get rid of it to free up some space?

    When I plug in my iPod nano 4th gen to iTunes and click on my iPod, I can see a graph showing how much space is available on my iPod and what it is being taken up by.  A lot of space is taken up by 'other'. What is this? I have a big iTunes library, with about 2000 songs, so I don't want all this space taken up by something I don't know what it is. How can I get rid of it?

    OmniDiskSweeper is a good program to see what's taking up space: http://www.omnigroup.com/products/omnidisksweeper/
