Arrow keys not working on CS2 64 bit system

Recently purchased a new computer with 64 bit system 4meg ram. I installed CS2 and everything seems to be working except the arrow keys and the control +/- features. Arrow keys are working in other programs like word and publisher. Any suggerstions?

I had the same issue on one machine but not another, so I compared the Photoshop install directories and found that (among other things) Tw10122.dat was different between the two. My only guess is that the version we have is localized to a different country, and this is causing the issue. Perhaps a common pirated version is also localized to a different country and that's why this issue is common among pirated versions, even though ours are not pirated.
...Or maybe they are and we just don't know it! Either way, replacing this file with my other version fixed it for me and maybe it will for you, too. Here's what to do:
Close Photoshop (if opened)
Navigate to your Photoshop install directory. This is c:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS2\ by default on x64 systems or c:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS2\ on x32.
Find Tw10122.dat and rename it to  Tw10122.dat.bak.
Download my attached  Tw10122.dat to your install directory.
Launch Photoshop and test it.
If the issue persists, or anything else seems wrong with Photoshop, restore your old  Tw10122.dat by deleting mine and renaming  Tw10122.dat.bak to its original filename. Please let us all know if this works for you.

  • HP G62-348CA number keys and arrow keys not working

    Good day Experts! Can someone help me fix my laptop? I got G62-348CA unit. only number 5 and 6 in my number keys are working and also arrow keys down and right are not functioning. at first it was built with windows 7 home premium 64bit but then i have to reformat my laptop with windows 7 ultimate but i dont have available 64bit so i install 32bit of the OS. before i install the OS, number keys and arrow keys are working fine but after I reformat my laptop with ultimate 32bit, the said keys are not working. please guys help me. im having trouble with my unit and i dont know what to do. its pretty bad i dont have any idea. all the best with you guys and i'm hoping for your fast and kind response. thank you!

    Because the operating system does not affect the keyboard in that way . .. If the operating system has issues it would switch keys or assign wrong characters.
    I have replaced over 200 keyboards because of such issues

  • Up and Down Arrow Keys Not Working

    I have had the HP Pavilion g6t-1b00 CTO Notebook PC for a year or two now. I've been having a couple of problems with internet connectivity and putting my computer on "sleep".
    However, few days ago, my keyboard randomly started acting weirdly. When I would try to type certain letter/numbers, they would come out differently. 
    Ex. pressing the space bar would show up " ./M" instead
    I tried restarting my computer many times and installed a BiOS update which fixed all of my issues except for my up and down arrow keys. As of now, they have no function; I can't scroll with them and they don't seem to be taking on the role of another key. I have tried using the keys on different programs. Using the touch pad to scroll works but I still can't use the up and down keys.
    Is there anyway to get the up and down arrow keys to work again?
    This question was solved.

    Hello Larasoft,
    I understand you’re up and down arrow keys are not functioning, is that accurate? I will do all I can to help you with this issue.
    I want you to access the setup menu to test the keys out, see instructions below.
    1.       Shut down the computer.
    2.       Locate the F10 key across the top.
    3.       When you turn the computer back on immediately start tapping the F10 key repeatedly.
    4.       If successful you should be on setup utility screen. What’s different about this is you can only use you arrow keys to navigate.  
    5.       Try working the arrow keys  up and down on different menus and see if they work.
    6.       Once you tested it press F9 to setup defaults and then press F10 to save and exit.
    If I have been helpful or if you’d like to say thanks you can click the white star under my name to give me Kudos.  I really appreciate it.
    Please respond at your earliest convenience with you results.
    Thanks

  • Wired keyboard-number pad&right arrow keys not working-serial # help!

    Hello to whomever reads/replies -
    I have a wired keyboard for my iMac(it's not the aluminum imac, but the version before it with the keyboard and mouse that came with it). I got this keyboard June 2007 after the original keyboard sent to me had problems with it with some keys not working properly. And now about a week ago my right arrow key and the zero, decimal point, one, two, three and enter button on the keypad stopped working out of the blue. One night they worked and the next they didn't with nothing being done different, nor was the keyboard stored differently.
    I've cleaned the keyboard inside and out twice and tried pushing the little squishy thing under the keys when you pop them off and there's no response with those being pushed either so something's got to be wrong with the keyboard itself.
    Also, when I go online to look up the warrenty on this keyboard, #1 i can't find where it tells me where the serial number on the **** WIRED keyboard is, just gives me where i can find it on the WIRELESS keyboards. Ugh. So I looked under my keyboard and punched in the numbers and letters that i found on a little silver plate just below where the wire and USB ports are in the top of the keyboard and I get an 'invalid serial number' error message.
    So.. could anyone help me with these problems? I'd really rather not call tech support since it took me over two hours to explain to the man that I spoke with last year about my other keyboard and I just don't have the time! Thanks in advance!
    Sharon

    Hello sharon:
    Welcome to Apple discussions.
    Run, don't walk to the phone. Call Applecare and indicate you have a warranty problem. The KB is (or will be shortly) out of warranty. It may take you some time, but it may save you some money in the long run.
    Incidentally, it appears to me that your KB is, indeed, broken.

  • Up and Down Arrow Keys Not Functioning in CS2 for Windows

    A little over 6 months ago I purchased Adobe Photoshop CS2 for Windows XP and installed it on my work PC and my home PC. Everything works fine and dandy on my work PC, however when I try to do some editting on my home PC there are some quirks that I can't figure out. The main thing is that my Up/Down Arrow Keys do absolutely nothing. Whether I am trying to edit text and scroll through my fonts or if I'm trying to nudge a part of a picture, the Arrow keys do nothing.
    Does anybody have any suggestions for me?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    >but that's beside the point.
    it's not. what you describe is typical behavior of a high quality cracked version that's been floating around. a great copy with shrink wrap, nice manuals, etc. but you've been burned. usually the discs are stamped "made in singapore".
    try to get your money back.

  • Command arrow key not working in iCal

    Command arrow to navigate between day, week or year now not working.  Command T works for example, just not the arrow keys for scrolling through the diary.

    Hello Angela. A bit of info often helps. Basic is machine type and OS version. Since you say "now not", presumably it used to, so what have you changed since it last worked? Does it still work in eg TextEdit (start/end of line)?
    Are you syncing your calendars with anything?

  • Left and right Arrow keys Not working now

    My left and right arrow keys are not working properly now.
    For example, when typing, left arrow does not produce the desired action (move cursor one spot to the left), and right arrow does not produce the desired action (move cursor one spot to the right). Also, control + left no longer activates spaces, and control + right no longer activates spaces.
    Interestingly, in investigating the problem, I noticed that my shortcut keys for activating spaces and for activating expose had been changed (software update?). Before, I had set F5 (without pressing fn) for expose and had set F6 (without pressing fn) for spaces. Now, I noticed spaces was set back to the default of F8 (requiring fn).
    The issue persists after shut down, and even when logged on to other users, e.g. Guest.
    All other keys seem to be working fine, including the up and down arrows.
    It is not hardware because fn + left + right produces the "[" character on the screen.
    Any ideas?

    You might want to post in the MacBook forums as this seems to be a hardware issue and those gurus hang out there. http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=248

  • F-keys not working as set in System Preferences

    In System Preferences, under MIssion Control, "Show Desktop" is set to the F6 key. But my new macbook pro keyboard has the the F6 key set to turn on the backlight keyboard, and so with other F-keys. How do I "show desktop" with the keyboard, and why doesn't the F6 key work as set in System Preferences? Am I doing it wrong? Thanks.

    Good day Arandel,
    On a portable Mac such as your MacBook Pro to use the assigned functions from the Mission Control System Preferences, you must simultaneously press the function (fn) key in the bottom left corner of your keyboard, in your case fn + F6. See this article for reference -

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • Wired Keyboard: Right Arrow Key Not Working Properly

    The right arrow key on my new wired keyboard doesn't work on the first press. After the initial press it works, and if I'm only using the arrow keys themselves it works fine too. But otherwise it takes two presses to move the cursor initially.

    I found the problem, at least for my keyboard. Open Keyboard Viewer from the International menu, the one that displays a flag.
    Tap the right arrow key lightly. Nothing happens on the viewer. Tap any other key lightly. They display just fine. Now, give the right arrow key a firmer tap. You should see that it registers every time as long as you tap it a little harder than the other keys.
    So, at least in my case, it is keyboard specific. That probably explains why some have the problem and other's don't. I will exchange this keyboard for another one until I finally get one that works. Thank God for "Keyboard Viewer" or I never would have nailed this down.
    Poor quality control at play here me thinks.

  • HP Pavilion dv8t-1000 CTO Entertainment Notebook PC - DOWN ARROW KEY NOT WORKING

    Down arrow key doesn't work.
    It has to be "warmed -up" by holding it down for like 15-20mins and then it intermittently works.
    Suspect a pinched keyboard circuitry....
    ANY SOLUTIONS WELCOME
    Regards
    -Ash-

    The easiest solution would be to buy a replacement keyboard or use an external USB keyboard when you need to use the arrow keys. You can find a used keyboard on eBay pretty cheap these days. I just picked one up for a HP G50 for a mere $8 after shipping. Generally there is no way to fix these keyboards if there is a problem in the ribbon cables. Good luck!

  • Left and Right Arrow Keys Not Working

    I know this has been asked A LOT, but I can't find a concise answer that works.
    Some have had success with fixing something in their System Preferences, then Keyboard Shortcuts. I don't know what this means, went there, and can't add left/right commands as the keys don't do anything. This is probably something easily explained, but I need to be walked through the steps as I don't know how to "add shortcuts" exactly.
    I just really need the left and right keys, as I'm a writer and that helps to fix typos quicker.

  • HT201321 Numbers pad 4 5 6 and the up down arrow key quit working. I swithched keybouards (Both are Apple, and still have the same problem, its not hardware.)

    The 4 5 6 keys and the up down arrows do not work.
    I had the Cap C off for a While Had hit some key command
    that shut it off so I got a new keyboard and it did the same.
    HAs anyone had this problem

    Does the problem happen if you reboot the system into Safe Mode by holding the Shift key at startup?
    Additionally, does the problem happen if you create a new user account in the Users & Groups system preferences and log into that?

  • Pavilion g6 B6E08AV Win8 64-bit several keys not working.

    Pavilion g6 B6E08AV Win8 64-bit delivered/received 12-22-12 for Christmas. Last couple weeks [q, w, e, r, u, i, o, p, right shift key, zero & enter on number pad, left & up arrow keys] stopped working.  Must use on-screen keyboard. Very disappointed/upset after chatting online w/tech. He wanted to send replacement kybrd for me to replace myself...(NOT). Alternative= send me a box to ship laptop to repair center, 7-9 day process! I can't believe there is not an easier/faster way to replace a simple keyboard; like take in to a local partner. I am even more disappointed that a farely new unit already has a hardware failure.

    Hello, 
    I see that you're having an issue with the keyboard on the notebook. Now, if you're in warranty and want the replacement to be free that would be the best option. 
    If you're not in warranty and looking to replace the keyboard yourself you can look into this one which the same exact keyboard that you have (if you're located in the US.)This is the only keyboard I could find that your notebook supports. 
    Other than that I would suggest going with the replacement HP is offering you. Also, you could always ask for them to give you expedited shipping.
    Hope this helps. If you need anything else let me know.

  • TS1381 My left arrow does not work on my macbook pro(model A1226).  I have reset nvram, performed a safe boot, pulled the cache to desktop, replaced .globalpreference.plist, test all other keys with keyboard view (all others work)  - HELP!!

    My left arrow does not work on my macbook pro(model A1226).
    I have reset nvram, performed a safe boot, pulled the cache to desktop, replaced .globalpreference.plist, & tested all other keys with "keyboard viewer" (all other keys work except for the arrow). 
    In addition, I have gone thru all the recommended checks with universal access and have booted from snow leopard dvd and the left arrow still does not work. 
    I have tried using the left arrow key in all of applications I use such as: excel, ms word, address book, calendar, iphoto, terminal, & highlighting an icon and using the arrows to move to another selected icon.
    Here is the kicker!  In addition, I purchased a logitech solar bluetooth keyboard and the arrows work fine with my ipad but do not work when paired with the macbook pro. All other keys work fine on the macbook pro using the bluetooth keyboard.
    I believe this says that the problem is not in my macbook pro keyboard. So where can it be?
    Can anyone think of any other rabbit holes I can search?
    thanks and regards

    I would also like to add that I've reverted the two cd drive and hard drive mods I did and the laptop is back to factory hardware and there is 0 corrosion or mold visible.
