Photoshop CS5 Move Tool Not Working?

Please help. I am using Photoshop CS5 and my Move tool is not working. I just don't know what to do. I am making photobooks with a software plug-in, "Album DS", and for the last couple of months everything worked perfectly. Then, all of sudden, when I load up photos onto an album page, with the Move tool, I no longer get the crop markings around the photos to enlarge, decrease, or even move the photos. I have tried using the Move tool without the software and it still does not work.

I just figured this out 5 minutes ago, by mistake I might add.  How in the world did you know this? Thanks.

  • Photoshop CS5 rotate tool not working.

    I've just installed photoshop cs5 on a new matchbook pro, and I cannot use the rotate tool. When I try a window opens saying "Could not complete your request because it only works with OpenGL enabled document windows".

    I already checked that, nothing in the graphics processor box is selectable. I can't think of why I would have this problem... I was using a cs6 trial and the rotate tool worked fine.

  • PS CS5 - rounded rectangle and move tool not working..?

    CS5 Photoshop
    I have just noticed that my rounded rectangle tool is not working properly. When I click and drag nothing is visible, when I release it floods my whole image with my selected color. I have tried all of the other tools and they work properly. I have tried restarting, compared settings with other tools, and checked for updates. Nothing is working and any help would be appreciated.
    Also, I have what appears to be a common problem with my move tool. I click, drag, and drop only to have the selected image snap back to its original position. I have an intuos 5 connected, is this the culprit?
    Thanks in advance...

    I can't help with the snap to edge problem, but if you select your rounded rectangle shape tool, and click on the Cog in the Options bar, I suspect you have a fixed size set, and that it is bigger than your canvas.

  • The Move Tool not working in InDesign CC 2014, no click-and-drag. What Can I do to fix it?

    It just started not working this week. I am unable to click-and drag anything in my document with the Move Tool. I have noticed that I can click-and-drag objects if I switch to the Free Transform Tool. Ok work around for now but I want to fix the issues. I have tried deleting the preferences and reinstalling the program but with no luck.
    Anyone have any suggestions?

    I have looked into replacing my preferences but I cannot find a good preferences in which to copy and use.

  • Move tool not working correctly, will not move individual layers only only groups.

    Everytime I try to move a layer within  a group it moves the entire group OR if it is not in a group it moves every single layer.
    The only way this does not happen is if I use the transform tool to move. This stinks for work-flow.
    Im not sure if I accidently made a change somewhere OR this is a bug ? Any fixes or suggestions?

    Move tool in what program?

  • Photoshop CS5 "Help" function not working - Adobe Air error message?

    Installed Photoshop CS5, and thought everything was working okay, but when I click on Photoshop Help, I get the error message "Adobe Air - This installation of this application is damaged. Try re-installing......" I have re-installed first Adobe Air, same problem and then uninstalled and re-installed Photoshop CS5, but the problem remains. When I first tried to use the Help function it tried to update something and for some reason this failed. I'm wondering if others have seen the same problem and know of a solution? Thanks, David.

    Hello:  there may be a configuration issue going on here.  I have escalated this issue to our Help app engineering team. In the meanwhile, please try the following:
    Uninstall the Adobe Help application: go to your Application folder > Adobe > Adobe Help (drag it to the Trash)
    Delete the following directory:
    USER NAME (home) > Library > Preferences > chc.4875E02D9FB21EE389F73B8D1702B320485DF8CE.
    Empty the Trash
    Manually update the application via this link: http://www.adobe.com/support/chc/
    Select "Photoshop" in Step 1 and then click the Install badge in Step 2.  Make sure to select "Open" (and not Save) in the installation dialog box to fully update the app.
    Note: The previous instructions did not include deleting the old application or its preference file. This will help ensure that it is thoroughly updated.

  • Photoshop CS5 TWAIN plugin not working in 32-bit mode

    I'm having trouble scanning via TWAIN in Photoshop CS5. I'm on an iMac running OSX 10.6.6, My Scanner is an Epson Perfection V350, and after installing the latest driver and an online chat with an Epson rep, they told me to download the latest Photoshop TWAIN plugin from the Adobe site, then run Photoshop in 32-bit mode.
    I tried that and the option to scan finally appeared in the import menu and the Epson Scan interface appeared. However, upon trying to preview or scan, the whole lot crashes.
    The Epson Scan program works as a standalone app, so the problem clearly lies within Photoshop. However I want to scan in Photoshop, not the clunky standalone app!
    Is there anything else to try?

    I would say it's more likely that there is a problem with CS5 and/or the new TWAIN plugin.
    Epson claim that since their application works standalone, than it's not at fault.
    Photoshop CS4 worked fine - I could scan via TWAIN perfectly. I've since removed the CS4 apps. And of course CS5 no longer supports it in the same way. Following Adobe's OWN recommendations of installing the TWAIN plug-in and running PS in 32-bit only led to complete software crashes.
    Of course I can scan in Epson Scan on it's own, but after 15 years of happily scanning via TWAIN in Photoshop, I don't see why I should change my way of working to something that would be less convenient.
    On another post I read something about having the correct TWAIN plugin - I could only find one for CS5 on the downloads page, so I assume I got the right one.

  • Photoshop CS5 for Windows not working on dual monitor setup

    If I try to open Photoshop CS5 while my second monitor is plugged into my laptop (via VGA cable), it loads normally, but won't display any opened images. I get a gray background and nothing else. (see screenshot here: http://screencast.com/t/f1bHcM3E )
    (I can even see the tiny image preview in the navigator, but not the image itself.)
    However, t'll work just fine if I open Photoshop with the second monitor disconnected and THEN plug it in, so it's not a problem with the dual monitors in general...just when first opening it. It's annoying because, if I'm working on a project and realize I have to make a quick image tweak in Photoshop, I have to unplug the monitor and then rearrange all my windows after Photoshop's done loading and I can plug it back in.
    Does anyone have any idea what's up with this? I can't seem to find any information online that specifically mentions this issue. For reference, I'm using Windows 7 on a Lenovo laptop.
    Thanks!

    Oh, that's possible. I went and read the detailed specs for my computer and it seems like it has both Intel and NVIDIA. Could that be it? (Computer hardware issues are not my area of expertise.)

  • Photoshop CC (2015) tools not working

    I updated my CC apps yesterday and today tools in Photoshop are not working.  Clone stamp and healing brush allow you to sample but effects are not applied.  When trying to use the quick selection tool the selection s cleared after a few seconds.

    I'd say things sound desperate enough to try resetting Preferences
    Reset Preferences
    Windows — Hold down Shift Ctrl Alt immediately after starting Photoshop
    Mac — Hold down Shift Cmd Opt immediately after starting Photoshop
    If that fails, we need to know your operating system?
    Do you have a full CC subscription, or by apps do you mean Photoshop, Bridge and Lightroom?
    Another other information that might pertain ?

  • Photoshop CS5 serial number not working?

    I bought and downloaded Photoshop CS5 from this site about two years ago, and since then have purchased a new computer. I want install CS5 on this new computer, but my account isn't listing CS5 under my lists of products. When I try and register the serial number I found under my program's System Info, I get an error message that says my serial number isn't valid.
    A little while ago, adobe had an information leak and my account was one of the ones listed as possibly compromised- could this be the issue?
    If not, why won't it let me register CS5 to my account? I really want it on my new computer. I purchased the product legitimately and I don't want my money disappearing after only two years.

    Explain your situation to Customer Support, and see if you can submit some sort of proof. For example a credit card statement. Your bank can help you with that. See if your ISP can fish up the email.
    Also if you purchased it as an Educational discount, you might get in touch with that section.

  • Move tool not working in CS6 beta, mac

    I can't move layers, grouops nor objects with the move tool when using the mouse or wacom however I can move objects using the cursor keys. Any suggestions what might be off or what might be done?

    No, it isn't. I tried it both on and off without result. As I am trying to move the object I get a grey square, which I can move around but the object only moves 5 mm and then flicker once back into its former place, and that's it.

  • Downloading Photoshop CS5 Extended trial not working

    Hi, I wonder if someone has had the same problem...
    I have Photoshop CS5 on my Mac but would like to trial PS Extended CS5 to try the 3D repousse out. I've tried twice to download the PS Extended download link but when I install it, it is just installing the standard PS CS5. I've tried uninstalling my own PS then downloading the Extended trial again but to no avail. Help!

    @RickCanvas you can find a list of our current product versions at Adobe Support Policies: Supported Product Versions.
    @DannyB2012 are you behind some type of a proxy server which might be interfering with the content you are able to view on the Internet?  Having problems locating the download button in multiple web browsers would seem to be something more global in nature.  Which operating system are you using?  Do you have any security software installed?  Are you utilizing the latest version of Java?
