Lion is the system...  You can't simply uninstall it.  Without more information, it's hard to know what else to say.  If you want to go back to Snow Leopard (just guessing), you have to erase the hard drive and either restore from a backup you made before installing Lion or reinstall Snow Leopard from scratch.

    Hi there, basically what’s happened. My mac was sent in for repair, and came back with iphoto not working. it just keeps “thinking” for over 24 hrs straight. so i installed the mac OS X dvd that came with my mac. So not sure what i’ve done now

    i don’t have a clue about these kind of things. mac was purchased 1 yr ago. so at the moment iphoto is not working. im suppose to take it in for a yearly mot at pc world, i don’t know if they will look the iphoto problems i’m having?
