[QUOTE="krs, post: 1816410, member: 67742"] Thanks Jake, I think you're right - I'm somehow into "Spaces" but I still don't know how I get there in the first place. Seems "Spaces" in El Camino still has a few bugs..... The Apple documentation states: The touchbar or Magic Mouse options obviously don't apply to me, but only the "F3" key option works to access Mission Control and thus spaces The "control + up arrow" does nothing and "dragging a window to the top of the screen doesn't do anything either. Hoever, "control + right arrow" and "control + left arrow" do show me the two other desktops. Seems like those two are defaults - the one on the left is the Dashboard, the one on the right is the desktop by itself (with no other open window) So this "control + right arrow/left arrow" might let me recover when this happens again. But I will try Patrick's suggestion as well. PS: People on line complain that they have this problem - desktop disappearing to right or left, with Snow Leopard as well even though this feature was only introduced with Lion. I ran Snow Leopard on a half dozen different types of Macs for several years - never saw that problem. [/QUOTE]
