Using a Track Pad? Be careful how you're moving your fingers around on it. It sounds like you're accidentally zooming your desktop.

Click on the Apple in the top left corner - open System Preferences - Trackpad

Go through all the tabs there to learn about the trackpad.

What kind of Blue Tooth mouse? You can do the same accidental zooming with an Apple wireless (Blue Tooth) mouse that you can do with a trackpad. Same advice applies.
