I recently added several family pictures but they are showing upside down. How do I correct this so they are showing correctly?

    Click on the profile of the person's photo. Then click on Mamories, then on the photo, then on Actions and you will see the arrow to turn right or left.

    You can also go to your Gallery (found under the Memories menu) and simply "right mouse click" on the memory that needs rotating and then select rotate right or left.

    Does the same technique work with documents? Another lady and I have both tried to turn a document by 90 degrees, using those the arrows to turn right or left. The document is temporarily in the correct position. However, as soon as you leave the document, view another, and come back to the rotated document, it is again positioned wrong.

    I do not believe you can permanently adjust the orientation setting of PDF files (within FS). They are the way they are - because of how they were originally scanned. (they can be rescanned with the correct orientation)

    However there are various free online services that will take a pdf and allow you to rotate it and resave it in the rotated PDF (and then re-upload to FS)

    ILOVE PDF is a great free on line service - that does this along with many other vaulable options
