Photoshop :: CS5 - Cursor Not Working - Get Hand Tool?

Feb 29, 2012

Working away in ps cs5 and click on the direct selection tool and all I get is the hand (move) tool and what ever tool I click on I just get the hand tool! This happened in indesign too.

It goes back to normal if I reboot and just found that when i opened illustrator while having this prob in ps and then went back to photoshop the problem rectified.

Photoshop :: Why Does Dragging On Touch Screen Change Cursor Into Hand Tool

Jul 1, 2012

Why does dragging on a Touch Screen change the cursor into a Hand Tool? This did not happen in CS 5.5 and I could edit on my touch screen monitor. With Photoshop CS 6, as soon as I start to drag, the cursor changes to a hand cursor. I have look at all of the system options and nothing seems to affect it so I have to assume it is something wrong with Photoshop CS 6.

Photoshop :: Hand Tool Not Working Properly?

Mar 27, 2012

For some bizarre reason, no matter what tool I select in the tool bar the only icon that will show up on the canvas is the hand tool, I can't change it and consequently I can't do anything but move the image around.

I have installed all the updates and patches, I have tried everything I can think of to solve it and get back to work but no other tools will work.

Photoshop :: Spacebar Shortcut / Hand Tool Showing But Not Working

May 15, 2012

Running the CS6 trial on a Windows 7 Laptop (x64). I was in Photoshop (64), and noticed that when I held down the spacebar to pan the open image, the hand icon would show but the tool will not work. No matter how many times I click and drag, the image stays still. If I select the MANUALLY select the hand tool it works, but the spacebar shortcut key is non-functional. This issue persists across both the 32 & 64 bit versions of Photoshop.

Photoshop :: Scrubby Zoom And Hand Tool Stop Working Out Of The Blue

Feb 12, 2013

I checked my preferences and OpenGL is enabled, so I don't understand why it randomly stops working when I'm trying to get work done. Been working for less than four hours today and have had to restart Photoshop CS5.5 6 times. It starts working for a little while, then the "Scrubby Zoom" box becomes greyed out and the shortcut doesn't work as well.

Also when I hit space (hand tool) to drag the image around, that stops working at the same time as the zoom. I'm using an Intuos4 with this, haven't had problems with it until recently but there haven't been any significant changes in my machine (PC), which has a nice graphics card, processor, etc. I'm using Google Chrome, maybe it has something to do with my browser being open at the same time as PS?

Lightroom :: Cursor (Pointer) Showing As Hand (Move Tool) Instead Of Pointer?

Jan 10, 2014

How do you change the characteristic of the cursor from Hand (Move Tool) back to just being a pointer?  This condition only exists in the Develope Module when my cursor is placed over the top of the photo.  When I move it off the photo it returns to a pointer.  In the Library Module it is always a pointer like I like it to be.

After Effects :: Hand Tool Stops Working Randomly (CS6)

Mar 11, 2013

So I'm working on this composition with a lot of 3d layers. Sometimes when I switch views, the hand tool stops working completely, for no apparent reason. I hit space, the hand icon still shows, but nothing happens when I drag the cursor. Then after a while it starts working again, for no apparent reason either.

Photoshop :: Cursor Changes To Hand And Locks Up CS6?

Jun 29, 2013

I'm working along in PS CC (and this happened in CS6) and all is going fine.  Then for some unknown reason the cursor changes to a hand and none of the tools will work.  The only way to reset PS, is to restart the computer.  Just restarting PS won't work.

Photoshop :: Double Cursor - Hand, Magnifying Glass...

Apr 6, 2008

I'm running CS3 Extended on a Dell Latitude 830 laptop with a Dell bluetooth mouse and a Wacom tablet -- the tablet plugs into a USB port.

I'm seeing two hands, two magnifying glasses, two selection tool arrows, etc.

How do I get rid of the doppleganger? It doesn't affect performance,

I have a second laptop with a different bluetooth mouse and have shut that off (machine and mouse) thinking it was picking up an extra signal, but it doesn't make a difference.

Photoshop Elements :: How To Move Cursor Digitally Not By Hand Motion

Nov 15, 2012

For cropping  part of an image, the cursor virtually snaps to positions according to what the programmer sees in the image.  Maybe not always, but that is the way it seems to me in many cases. Even when it does not do so, I find it impossible to move the cursor in very tiny increments by using my mouse. If I were to greatly enlarge the image on the screen to get finer control, then only part of the image would fit on the screen. I want a technique for controlling the selection with as much fine precision as is available when resizing, for example. We can specify hundredths of a millimeter when resizing; very finely precise indeed.
 
Is there a technique that I can use to have very fine and precise control of a crop, preferably by specifying a movement left-right-up-down using decimal fractions of a unit of distance?  The same question applies to using the selection tool.

InDesign :: CS6 Hand Tool Gets Stuck And Can't Use Selection Tool

Sep 7, 2012

In Indesign CS6 using Mountain Lion, the hand tool appears and I can't select or work with any other tool. All I can do is move the document around. After trying the space bar and other key commands I restarted and it worked for a while. Then it happened again. I work on a Macbook pro, so when I removed the mouse and worked only with the trackpad there was no change. When I quit and reopened, no change. I then deleted prefs and restarted and it worked, but it's been happening from time to time. Any other fix without restarting or deleting prefs.

Photoshop :: Cursor Change From Current Tool To Move Tool

Jul 31, 2013

When I have a none vector tool active for example the brush tool and I press and hold the Ctrl key down I see the cursor change from the current tool to the move tool cursor.  If I presses and hold the Alt key I see the cursor change from the current tool to the eyedropper tool.  If I press and hold both the Ctrl+Alt keys a see a cursor icon change to an icon that has two up pointing Arrow heads one Black the other White.  What tool is that cursor for? It seems to copy and move the current layer and move its position over the canvas.

Photoshop :: "Hand" Cursor

Aug 16, 2007

I just recently downloaded the Adobe Photoshop CS3 Trial, and I've been using it for a couple days now. I was using it today, and I don't know what I did, but my cursor is a 'Hand', but it seems I cannot do anything, or change to a different tool, such as a brush. I'll click the brush tool, but the cursor will remain the 'Hand', and same with all the other tools. I also opened another version of Photoshop that I own (Adobe photoshop 5.0), and the cursor there is also a 'Hand', and it's the same problem as in CS3.

Photoshop :: Cs4 Hand Tool

Oct 31, 2008

i have recently upgraded my computer with a new mb, 8gb ram, clean install of vista 64 bit and cs4. after initial problems with screen lag i installed a new graphics card and all seems to be working fine. problem is using the hand tool. i was accustomed in cs3 to comparing two files side by side, let's say the same image with two different levels of sharpening. i was able to view both images at 100% and using the hand tool move each image independently. this made comparing particular areas of the images easy. in cs4 when i open two images and use the hand tool it moves both images at the same time.

My cursor is showing the hand tool no matter what tool is selected. And the tools of course do not work then. PS restart does not help, I have to restart the PC (Vista 32 Ultimate).

I read about this problem many time in the web. Why isn`t there any solution? Even CS4 11.01 has this bug.

Photoshop :: Hand Tool In CS4

Mar 5, 2009

way to use the hand tool (or spacebar) even if the entire image is visible, like you could do in previous versions. One might wonder why you would want to pan if you can already see the entire image. This comes up when one of your layers is bigger than the main image. If you try to Transform the layer, but the transform handles are off the edge of the screen, you need the hand tool. Otherwise you have to zoom out even further to get at the handles.
