MacOS Tahoe on 24 inch M1 iMac. Tried to type in title for events in Photos. Input persists in adding letters to the left of the previous one vice right of previous one. See attached title that should have been, "Steph's Birthday Breakfast." Any one else having the issue?

That's so weird! We've heard of this, and it seems like it usually clears up.
To narrow things down, try these steps:
Start up your Mac in safe mode - Apple Support
The idea is to find out if the problem is with the Library, with your account, or with caches and login items, and stuff like that. One of these steps may fix the problem, but their failure to work also helps figure out what's happening.

Figured it out with a little help. I had Full Keyboard Access switched on within Accessibility/Keyboard.
Thanks Richard. Rebuilding the Photos library and restarting in Safe Mode did not fix the issue. Reluctant to go through the pain of creating a new user and moving my files. Have found that if I move the curser after each letter I can complete the title. A minor inconvenience, but I will stick with that for now. Photos is the only application that I use that has the problem.
Ahh-- that accessibility stuff can sometimes have unexpected results!
