I have been totally frustrated with disappearing scroll bars on my Macs since the Lion update. Found and answer and wanted to share in case someone else was in the same boat. Such a simple thing.
Answer: With OS X Lion, Apple made some interesting design decisions. The missing scroll bars is one that has many people frustrated. Sure, the scroll bars show up when you actually start scrolling. However, without them there, you might not know there’s more information on the page. Fortunately, getting the scroll bars back is easy enough. Go to system preferences and click General. Find the Show Scroll Bars section. Here you can set when the scroll bars appear. You can choose to have them appear automatically depending on the input method you’re using, such as a mouse or trackpad. You can set them to appear only when scrolling. In my case I selected the Always option. Now I always see the bars, just as it was before.

Suzanne is a photographer, speaker, author and educator. Teaching Lightroom and Photoshop in private and group settings.
Suzanne was born and raised amidst the green rolling hills of the English countryside but is now completely at home surrounded by the arid desert and swirling sandstone of the Southwest. She finds Arizona a land of intense beauty and preposterous contradiction. Her photographs capture the diversity of waterfalls, snow-capped mountains, autumn leaves and desert sands, from the magnitude of the immense landscape to the smallest, most discreet of details.
The desert can be unforgiving of even the smallest errors, treating the unprepared harshly. But, for the few with passion, those who are willing to begin their trek at the end of the road, the secret world of the Southwest is revealed. Suzanne loves to challenge the ruggedness of the land, the great distances to be traveled, and intense weather conditions to capture images of Arizona and the Southwest that expose its many treasures and extremes.
Her images reflect her keen sense of curiosity, patience and the ability to see the world and its magic places in new and creative ways.
