Can't get rid of the brush tool
I've been using photoshop cs5 for a while now, but recently a bizarre bug has surfaced ...
I often can't activate any tool but the paintbrush. When i start up the application, the brush tool will be selected. I can click other tools in the tool palette, and they highlight as if activated. But they aren't. The brush tool remains active.
This doesn't happen all of the time (much to the annoyance of our tech support), and sometimes i *can* eventually select the other tools. But it happens enough to be extremely annoying. Sometimes it occurs when i exit photoshop -- eg by clicking on the desktop -- and then return to it.
Any thoughts? thx!
Note: this is an office mac for which i have no admin rights.
Our tech support has already trashed my prefs and completely reinstalled the app.
They are stumped, so i turn to you Virtual Mavens.

Hello! Here is the usual procedure when something goes wrong with Photoshop:
1) reset the tool (right-click on the tool icon in the Option Bar, select reset tool)
2) recreate Photoshop's preferences file.

When taking a picture with home button and sleep button can you get rid of the tool and task bar??
When taking a picture with home and sleep button can you get rid of the tool and task bar?? (the search bars)
No, but you can use any picture editing tool to crop out the bars. (Many are free in the App Store.) Me personally, I use PhotoPad, which I use to crop as well as rotate the screen shot. Takes less than a minute to do both with PhotoPad.

How can I get rid of the path in Type on a Path?
Greetings
Now I really feel stupid. First I couldn't find the magin tabs, now I can't get rid of the path. I have a feeling I might need to start over, but is there a way to lose the path and still have the text?You should highlight the text that is on the path, copy it using Ctrl+C / Command+C and then
place a new text tool cursor elsewhere on the page and paste the text into that cursor. Then delete
the old occurrence of the text on path. -

How can I get rid of the dark area on top one third of my iphone screen which spoils my background image?
It seems this problem is caused by the software to increase the readibility of upper letters (clock battery etc.) It be nice to leave us the control of choosing background letter color too if we are using brighter images or darker images.
I'm using iphone 4s and it appeared after I updated to new patch. 7.1.1.
Thanks,
Cem

Hi,
According to your descriptioin, I don't think this is system problem, it should be Intel driver problem. It would be contact Intel to confirm this issue whether this is their driver problem.

I have an iPhone 6 with IOS 8.1.3. When I go to the landscape view in Safari, the bookmark page appears and takes up one half of the screen. How can I get rid of the bookmark page so I can use the whole screen to what I am browsing?
OOPS! Too quick on the trigger to ask that question without trying anything. Sorry. Solved it by touching the bookmark icon.

How can I get rid of the accumulation of the backups in the Macintosh HD of my new MBA 13.3'' ?
How can I get rid of the accumulation of the backups in the Macintosh HD of my new MBA 13.3'' ?
My best advice is that you stop worrying about the backups that TimeMachine is making on your MBA. First, these local backups are only made when TimeMachine should perform a backup but your computer isn't connected to TimeMachine. Once you reconnect your computer to TimeMachine it makes a backup and the local backups are deleted. Second, TimeMachine stops making local backups when your free drive space dips below 80%. So the local backups aren't going to take over your computer.

I have a new iPad. I am using Comcast as my email provider but when I send a message, it pulls up the facebook email addresses for my contacts instead of the addresses stored in my comcast account. How can I get rid of the Facebook email addresses? The comcast addresses are stored in the comcast (xfinity) app. I do not use the "mail" or "contacts" apps ....I go straight to comcast (xfinity). I wish I could start over!!! thanks.
iPadI could be wrong, but it sounds like Facebook imported to your contacts. I have the Xfinity app on my new ipad, too, but none of my stored contacts from the online version are showing, only what I manually entered into the iPads contacts are there. When I did add the FB app, I did not grant it permission to push and pull from my ipad (not a fan of FB knowing every detail about me), so that may be where our difference lies. You could try to open the app and change your privacy settings, or delete it and then reinstall without granting permissions to integrate.
I'm sure someone here with a lot more knowledge then me can probably diagnose your issue better, though. Good luck! -

Have you created the password using U3T software? On the same Toshiba page there is a FAQ article how to remove U3T Launchpad software. -
