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.

I have just got CS6 and I am having problems with the brushes tool when drawing, moving a cursor values, moving images and so on. Although I am moving the brush, on screen it appears as if it wasn't moving at all, and the circle around the brush appear, as if the brush was stationary, and a line starts to appear around the brush cursor creating a circle, when this circle is complete, it bring the left-click menu (when using brush tool).
It's frustrating, becase a 5 min job ends up taking 20mins instead. I'm having to do really exaggerated cursor movements for the circle to not appear around the cursor and actually register movement, but by that point, the movement is so exaggerated that it messes up the drawing or piece I am working with..This didn't happen with CS3 when I was using it yesterday, but has been happening since the beginning with CS6.
I recently reformatted my hard drive and reinstalled the free to use version of CS2 on my PC. I'm running 32 Bit Windows 7. Since the install Photoshop will not allow me to use Shift+ Cursor to resize with constrained proportions. When I press Shift the cursor freezes and I am unable to move it no matter how hard I press on the track pad. If I resize and then press shift the image will square out. It appears that only the scroll function is disabled.

View 2 Replies View RelatedWorking 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.
my cursor always remains in the "hand" - mode, so I can't use any tools anymore.

The tool bar changes to the correct function .i.e. zoom, or crop, or whatever I choose. But it won't do anything but pan...
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'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.
When I try to click and drag any tool the curser turns into a hand in photoshop cs6.
View 9 Replies View RelatedFor 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.
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.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI 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.
View 3 Replies View RelatedHow 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.

View 3 Replies View RelatedMy cursor appears and disappears while in GIMP as I move the cursor over the canvas. I can make the cursor appear but only if there is no movement of the cursor. It makes no difference which tool I select, the size of the canvas, or the level of zoom.
Please note that this only occurs in Gimp, and none of my other applications. It started when I upgraded from openSUSE 12.1 to 12.2. I'm assuming that it has something to do with my input device configuration, but I could be totally wrong.
I have a total of 3 input devices - Core Pointer, Logitech USB-PS/2 Optical Mouse, and Virtual Core XTEST Pointer. Both the Optical Mouse and XTEST Pointer are DISABLED. Core Pointer is the only one enabled. Enabling Optical Mouse and XTEST Pointer give me other problems in Gimp and need to remain disabled.
For the Core Pointer, Mode is set to SCREEN, a message says that 'The axis X has no curve', and the following Axis Settings:
X 1
Y 2
Pressure none
xtilt none
ytilt none
wheel none
In Gimp Preferences->Input Controllers, there are three active controllers - Mouse Buttons, Main Mouse Wheel, and Main Keyboard.

View 7 Replies View RelatedCurrently running Photoshop CS6 and a trial version of HDR Efex pro 2 downloaded from the official Nik website. The issue is simply this:
1. I click Merge multiple images or Merge to HDR Efex pro 2 in the file menu.
2. The program becomes unresponsive.
I can't select images, no box pops up for it. It just hangs..I can force quit with task manager and I can alt+tab to other windows, but the HDR efex 2 box and photoshop program can't be clicked, moved, or used at all. It is highly frustrating and I've reinstalled numerous times. I've also loaded up an old copy of CS5 that I had and the same thing happens.
I've recently reinstalled windows and previously CS 5 + HDR Efex worked fine, but since the reformat it now does this.
I have to task manger my way out i have updated PS the dialogue box does not come up. it is PS not the printers.
View 2 Replies View RelatedComputer is about 6 month old running Vista. Installed and used program without a problem for last 6 months now it begins to load at the start up screen and then freezes. Task manager says "not responding." Re-booted several times however locks up at the same point near the end of the start-up screen load.
View 6 Replies View RelatedNot having any other issues with my new system other than Photoshop CS. This has happened four times now and the last time was a trip. Running CS on a Mac dual G5 with 1GB ram...working on two image files approximately 20MB each.
This happens when saving a file...the spinning rainbow wheel of death will just spin and spin and I can't get access to Photoshop again. Can't force it to quit and it will eventually lock up my system so bad that I have to use the manual shut down button on the front of the system.
Yesterday it did this and the spinning wheel came up and my monitor went to sleep! Could not wake it up, then the fans kicked into overdrive and they kept getting louder and louder like the processor was cranking away on something. I had to force the computer to shut down again.
Any ideas what's causing this? My RAM allocation is set to 50% in Photoshop, so it should not be a ram issue and there are NO other programs running.
i do a couple of brushstrokes, especially with brushes larger than 50 pixels, the program locks up my computer. It worked just fine before, but then my video card broke, and i had to use my onboard card that takes 32 mb's out of the computer RAM. When i tried to use a friend's card, photoshop worked just fine! I've tried photoshop 6, 7, cs and cs3, none of them work, they all crash.
View 2 Replies View RelatedProblem just started. When I try to load PS7 it works fine until it gets to "sorting font list" then it locks up and won't load any further. I loaded PS6 just fine. I have both installed.
My OS is Win 98SE, 512 RAM. I have been having problems with motherboard and am running system in DOS. Need a new PCI card or motherboard. Could this be the problem? I have had the motherboard problem for about two weeks. But I have been running PS7 all day today several times without a hitch. I have not tried reinstalling yet. Wanted to check here first to see if problem has occured with someone before and they found solution.
I have been using Photoshop 7 for years on my Vista home premium laptop, with no problems. Now suddenly, today it has started crashing on startup and, worse, locking windows when it does so. I get a windows has stopped working error. I restart and if I try again with PS7 I get a similar result but now windows locks up totally and I have to push the power button to get out of it.
I have already tried uninstalling PS and reinstalling, but I get exactly the same effect.
CS6 locks up when I open a RAW file. Doesn't matter how I open the file. Other files open fine. This just started happening and I haven't changed anything on my PC. I'm running Windows 7 and have plenty of RAM.
