Lion Back gesture effect - how do I change it?

Ok ... 2 fingers instead of 3 ... I can cope!
Ok ... gesture Forward to go backwards ... I can cope eventually!
But this animation feature that reveals the last page underneath .... ARRRRGH   .... cannot cope! The gesture now needed to go back a page is huge! If I do not start using large gestures (SHOUTING) then all I get is a quick view of the previous page before being dumped into my starting point.
I cannot se any facility yet to turn this off (preffered) of modify how much of the previous page I should see before the Os decides for me that I actually do want to se the page.
Maybe someone would care to tell me why I need to preview the page that I have just come from since I have just come from there and now want to go back? Most of Lion makes sense ... but I cannot get my head around this one at all!

Okay so I realized I just restored it to my old phone. Thank you though. It was through iTunes

  • Having changed Mail in Lion to 'Classic Layout', how does one change back?

    Hi.
    When I upgraded to Lion I didn't like the new layout of Mail, so I changed it back to the Snow Leopard-like 'Classic' layout.
    I fancy giving the new layout another go now, so I've un-ticked Classic Layout in Preferences>Viewing, but it still doesn't look like it did when I first installed Lion, which had the two-line preview messages in a vertical column to the left of what I've always called the 'preview pane'.
    What I have now is the two-line list above the preview pane.
    I can find loads of tutorials on how to change the Lion Mail appearance back to Snow Leopard, but I can't find anything to do the reverse and arrange everything in vertical columns again. Nothing seems to leap out at me in Mail Preferences, and I'm a bit lost.
    Can anyone please advise? I'm sure it is a dead simple thing to do, but I can't work it out...

    Cancel that...
    I went back to Classic, and then came back out of it, and I had the vertical column arrangement again.
    It was definitely horizontal the first time I un-ticked Classic, honest!

  • I'd like to back up iPhone4 to external HD before upgrade (Local drive to full).  How do I change the backup location?

    Upgrading to iOS5.  I'd like to back up my iPhone4 to an external HD before upgrading, but the utility uses the local HD as default.  Not enough room locally for my back-up.  How can I change the destination drive for back-up?

    iPhone Backup Location for Windows 7, XP, and Vista
    Windows XP stores all of your iPhone backup files in this location:
    C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
    Windows Vista and Windows 7 backs up the iPhone files to here:
    C:\Users\user\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
    Obviously if your main drive is not C: then you’ll have to change that, same goes for ‘user’

  • How do I change the Mac OS Extended (Case-sensitive, Journaled) Format of my Verbatim External Hard Drive

    Good evening.
    I have a Verbatim External Hard Drive, currently being used for my Time Machine back-up on my MacBook (Running Mac OS X Version 10.6.8).
    I also frequently use a normal Windows laptop (Normal 32-bit OS).
    The Hard Drive was formatted to Mac OS Extended (Case-sensitive, Journaled) in order for the MacBook to do the Time Machine back-up.
    How do I change the fromat of the Hard Drive, as i do not need the Time Machine back-up to be done on the Hard Drive anymore, and I NEED to use the external in both PC's.
    Your assistance will be greatly apreciated.

    Open Disk Utility, select the external hard drive, select erase, and format it as FAT32. You'll be able to use it with both Mac and Windows.

    I just bought a 2009 macbook pro with an os upgrade to lion. my question is how do i change the previous owners name (like when i bluetooth) to my name???

    Your MBP should have been given to you with the original installation disks and OS.  The Lion OS is licensed to the person who sold it to you.  You will have create your own account and purchase Lion if you wish to use it.  Those are the stipulations in the licensing agreements.

  • I moved countries how do i change my iTunes

    I have resonly moved back to canada from the uk. I set up my itunes account in the uk but now live  back in canada. how do i change my store back to the canadian store?

    You can change the country for itunes store by going to the bottom of the Home page and clicking on the flag.
    You can then sign in with your Apple ID and put in your Canadian Bank Account details.
    Be aware though this will stop you from buying in the UK store or getting updates for apps you purchased there.

  • How come I can't use the back gesture in certain apps with my magic mouse on certain applications in Lion OS?

    How come I can't use the back gesture with my magic mouse on certain applications in Lion? I figured out that in Safari i have to use a 1 finger swipe to go back a page instead of 2 fingers like i used to do in Snow Leopard. But apps like iTunes and iPhoto and i can't do that. Any ideas? is there a setting im missing to make this work? It works in Safari but not any other applications, so im assuming theres no setting for this. Just want to know if this is just a bug that will be fixed in the next update or if its something I can fix now. Any help would be appreciated because its kind of annoying. Other than this minor issue I love Lion. Full screen apps are unbelievable.

  • I loaded OS X Lion , changed 2 finger scrolling, i want to revert scrolling back to scrolling down is movement towards me, not moving my 2 fingers away from me, I did this by accident , how do i change this 2 finger scroll movement back to original

    I loaded OS X Lion ,  I changed the 2 finger scrolling once OS X Lion was loaded to the movement of moving your 2 fingers towards the screen to move screen down  , i want to revert the moving of my screen moving down by scrolling down as the movement towards me , as original when I first received my MAC, not moving my 2 fingers towards the screen , I did this by accident , how do i change this 2 finger scroll movement back to original
    in other words - scroll towards me moves screen down
    scroll away from me or towards screen moves screen up. this is what I want
    now its the opposite
    scroll towards me screen screen moves up
    scroll towards screen makes screen gone down
    how do I fix this mistake i did when I loaded OS X Lion, it asked me to move my 2 fingers on mouse pad, I just moved it towards the screen not knowing this was going to change the scrolling to the opposite of how it scrolled when I first got my MAC, please help I prefer the original 2 finger scroll being towards me is screen moving down, HELP

    Apple menu > System Preferences > Trackpad > Scrolling & Zoom > Scroll direction: natural -- uncheck.

  • How can I change screen capture format from .png to .jpg in LION

    how can I change screen capture format from .png to .jpg in LION. The "terminal" suggestions of the past don't work? Thanks!

    This works for me:
    defaults write com.apple.screencapture type XXX
    where XXX is one of png, pdf, jpeg-jfif, jpeg 2000, tiff, pict, bmp, gif, psd, sci, or tga. You need to log out and back in for the change to take effect.

  • I made a big mistake to change the setting of my Mac book pro to "me only". Now ofcourse It cannot open the login page, for how would the mac know it is me? How can I change the setting back to "everyone"?

    I made a big mistake to change the setting of my Mac book pro to "me only". Now ofcourse It cannot open the login page, for how would the mac know it is me? How can I change the setting back to "everyone"? I have back up in the past but the last month I have not. I really want to keep the data.
    So how can I go in and change the setting, It stays ofcourse at the apple screen with wheel. All info is there and the computer works fine, just cannot use it or have been able to log in.

    wjosten is spot on.  If you really want iCloud, then you will need to acquire a new or second hand MBP that can run Lion.
    Ciao.
