Can't find scroll bar on photos

Hello,


Where is the scroll bar for photos? "Moments" only goes down three rows. I'd like to see entire collection. Albums only show one screen. I saw the scroll bar briefly. I just upgraded to Lion OS 10.7.5 which is the highest I can go with my hardware.


Thank you

Thanks for the response. I set my preferences to "always" but I still don't see the scroll bar. I don't have trackpad. I'm using a MacPro and I can't update anymore than 10.7.5. Still can't see more than 40 of my 1155 photos because I can't scroll. I have a Apple cinema display and I'm viewing photos as small as possible. This is frustrating.

The Photos,app does not work with MacOS X 10.7 Lion. You must have updated to Yosemite for Photos being installed. Photos requires MacOS X 10.10.3 or later.

To make the scroll bars visible open the System Preferences > General and change the settings for "Show Scroll bars" to "Always".


In MacOs X Lion or later you can scroll using the trackpad without the scroll bars being visible. Just try to scroll by dragging on your trackpad.
