Fill command no longer works, has turned into Grow

I've been scouring sites for a solution and have not found one as of yet. My Edit/Fill command (shift + F5) has suddenly turned into Grow. I've seen other people with this problem and the only solution I have seen up to now is to use (shift + delete) instead. That to me isn't a solution, it completely disrupts my workflow to try using a new key command that should be something else. I've also read about people deleting preferences, restarting, etc, and I've tried all of those things. I did have some issues with my Function keys because of something I had clicked in my finder preferences but I fixed that issue, and it seems that only Photoshop has lingering problems. And of course, my PSD keyboard shortcuts all look fine, nothing has changed there so something is overriding the keyboard shortcuts. Could it be something in my Photoshop preferences that I'm overlooking?
Any help that anyone has would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

So you are absolutely certain that the keyboard shortcut is assigned under Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts?
Could it have been usurped by an Action?
Did you get the dialog when you trashed the prefs?

Toolbox shortcut commands no longer work in CS2 and...

Toolbox shortcut commands no longer work in PS CS2. Any command that I try to execute in PS generates a "program error" message, including trying to exit the program. Now I have to go into Task Manager and "kill" it in there to get out of it. Images and changes will not save.
I have deleted the PS preferences and rebooted. I un-installed and re-installed PS. Same problem. Only happens in PS, not InDesign.
I can click directly on the toolbox to activate a certain tool, but this is so painfully slow. I'm pretty much dead in the water so any help appreciate.
Dell 8400 3 ghz box, Window XP latest version, all updates.
Tons of memory and hard drive space.
[sig deleted by forum host]

The program has worked without any problems for two years. It was purchased at CDW under our company account.
Here's where I am with it. I am completely screwed now and at the "format the hard drive" point. When I go to install the CS2 Suite, the installer disk says that everything is out there on the hard drive BUT Photoshop, even though I used the installer CD to removed all components. I can't reinstall over anything, or install anything at all.
I went through the OS Registry and cleaned out what I think is everything but the install disk is reading something somewhere in a file that I can't seem to locate. I also went through the Common files under programs and cleaned that out as well. So, it looks like a reformat for me.
So, I've order a brand new 250 gig hard drive in case there are any issues going on from that end. Right now I'm going through withdrawal symptoms because I no longer can access CS2 and I have a boatload of projects to work on. Your basic nightmare. Wait, maybe I'm dreaming all this...

CS4: cursor has turned into three different "figures" in line. How to fix? [was:janeriklindqvist]

The cursor in my CS4 has turned into three different "figures" in line. This makes the program almost impossible to use and I cannot fin a way to come back to the normal "cross" again.

What’s your OS?
Boilerplate-text:
Are Photoshop and OS fully updated and have you performed the usual trouble-shooting routines (trashing prefs by pressing command-alt-shift/ctrl-alt-shift while starting Photoshop until the appropriate dialog appears after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved and making a note of the Preferences you’ve changed, 3rd party plug-ins deactivation, system maintenance, cleaning caches, font validation, etc.)

Forms HOST command no longer works after database upgrade from 10g to 11g

Hi,
After upgrading the database 10g to 11g the forms HOST command no longer works on Unix server. The form used to work fine prior the upgrade. I read all the threads I could find and did not see any solutions. Adding PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH does not work because it does not even run a basic shell script. (I saw this solution, adding PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH, in many questions / threads).
1. I wouldn't expect the database upgrade to be an issue, but it is the only change we had.
2. Note, 11g is Oracle Fusion Middleware which is quite a bit different than 10g.
I even tried the most basic commands like "echo" which is a build-in Unix command and there is no directory for it (ie. no /usr/bin - so variable PATH is irrelvent). i.e HOST('echo hi'); and HOST('echo "hi" '); and even HOST ('echo hi > /my_file.txt'); all returns FORMS_FAILURE (actually the if is IF FORM_SUCCESS THEN ... else ... and the else part always runs now - whereas it didn't before.).
Or basic commands like /usr/bin/ls as in HOST(/usr/bin/ls). At that point I was just testing the Unix command would return FORM_SUCCESS even though I could not see the results (because they weren't writing to a log file). Notice that I'm using the direct path /usr/bin so no Unix environment variables were needed.
The form does use webutil but that part works. For example, we have webutil_file_transfer( ....) The file shows up on the application server and in the expected directory.
Here's the main goal. Upload a file from clients local PC to the datebase server. The form uploads the file to the Application server, then we have a Unix script to scp (secure copy) the file from the application server to the database server. IF webutil, or any other Oracle functions could put the file on the database server that would be better. But, I don't know of any procedures that do that - or would have done it cleanly (i.e. storing to database and write back to server and then using a blob etc. )
Anyway, I was hoping someone would help with either of these.
1) Get the HOST command to work. - If we can get that to work then I wouldn't need any more help. We can just call the already existing Unix script to copy the file from the application server to the database.
2) OR be able to upload directly to the database server - wanted to do that originally
Any help would be appreciated

Solution for those interested and for anyone else searching this forum for a solution
I found this on My Oracle Support:
<h3>Host Command from Forms Not Working in 11g in Sun Solaris Sparc OS [ID 1157346.1]</h3>
Applies To: Oracle Forms - Version 11.1.1.1.0 and later
Sun SPARC Sun OS
Symptoms:
When trying to execute a Shell script or any OS command using the host() Built-in from Forms 11g, the host()command is not getting executed. The same functionality works on other operating systems and in previous versions like 10gR2.
Steps to be followed:
1) Take a backup and edit the $DOMAIN_HOME/config/fmwconfig/servers/WLS_FORMS/applications/formsapp_11.1.1/config/default.env or any custom environment file.
2) Locate the following environment variable:
LD_PRELOAD=/ora10gas/app/11.1.0/Middleware/as_1/jdk/jre/lib/sparcv9/libjsig.so
3) Comment out this variable. After the changes, it will look like the following:
#LD_PRELOAD=/ora10gas/app/11.1.0/Middleware/as_1/jdk/jre/lib/sparcv9/libjsig.so
3) a) Instead of LD_PRELOAD, kindly use LD_PRELOAD_64 as given below :
LD_PRELOAD_64=/ora10gas/app/11.1.0/Middleware/as_1/jdk/jre/lib/sparcv9/libjsig.so
(This makes HOST AND RUN_REPORT_OBJECT work fine).
4) Save the file and execute your forms. The Host() built-in will work as expected
The LD_PRELOAD setting in default.env is only required for the working of signal chaining facility in JVM version 1.5 and later. If you are not using theSignal chaining facility, this variable is not required. For more information, refer to the following documentation

Bridge place command no longer works for indesign 2014

Bridge place command no longer works for indesign 2014. It only gives Photoshop as an option. How can I get all other Adobe programs listed under Place ?

Your post sounds like an InDesign question.
Due to the current unavailability of clairvoyants and mind-readers in the forum, we respectfully request you supply sensible, complete details.
A lot more information about your hardware and software is needed.
BOILERPLATE TEXT:
If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
such as your platform (Mac or Win),
exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CC", but something like CC2014.v.2.2) and of Bridge,
your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
the type of file you were working on,
machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
what error message(s) you receive,
if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
a screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too,
etc.,

HT5449 The voice commands no longer work

Apple should take down the voice commands that no longer work - it over sells a product that is, while good, significantly less useful without the commands it claims to support. It has also lead to me wasting time trying to get them working as the Apple site itself says that that should. It wasn't until I Google'd the issue that it came to light these features have been removed after patent issues with Nuance.

Keyboard and mouse no longer work when booting into Rhapsody

I still have a bootable partition with the last release of Rhapsody (aka Mac OS X Server) on my Power Mac G4 but it's been a while (years!) since I actually booted it up. The G4 also has bootable partitions with Mac OS X 10.2, 10.3 and 10.4 (and is in daily use running 10.4.11).
I used to boot into Rhapsody occasionally, mostly for interest's sake, occasionally to test Unix software on legacy systems; I haven't tried to do so since installing 10.4 until now.
When I booted up from the Rhapsody partition today, all went well -- the system started up fine, and the login screen appeared -- but the keyboard and mouse no longer work. I even got out the original keyboard and mouse that came with the G4, with no luck.
I assume that recent firmware updates have bypassed support for Rhapsody. I guess I'm not surprised -- it was a developer-only release, after all. But has anyone a solution?

Adding to the above: I also tried plugging in an Microsoft USB keyboard at the point when Windows freezes at the Windows log-in screen. The keyboard is not recognized and the only way I can leave this screen is to power-off the computer.

System stops working pointer turns into a circle and starts again

My system slows down as the mouse cursor turns into a circle from time to time and then starts working again. Things become pretty slow. Shut down and start takes a long long time.

That can indicate a too-full hard drive. Highlight your hard drive's icon and then do "Get Info..." from the Finder's "File" menu. That will look something like this:
"Available" needs to be about 20MB or 15 percent of "Capacity," whichever is greater. If the drive is too full, this article will help you regain space:

Hiya!
That isnt water... but it isnt much better.
Sounds to me like one of the LCD crystals burst.
Unfortunately that would void your warranty with most every carrier. but all hope is not lost.
You can buy a new LCD display and swap them. its not really that hard either (kinda fun if you like to tinker)

My "Documents" icon in the dock has turned into a question mark.

On my MacBook Air my documents icon has disappeared and turned into a question mark. The icons have also disappeared within my Documents folder and some of the applications folders. Where did they go and how can I get them back?

Where they went is a good question, and not one we can answer without a lot more information. However, the Dock is pretty resilient at finding things like this if they are accidentally moved into another folder. So, unfortunately, I'd have to guess that it has been deleted. If that is the case, your question about getting them back can only be answered with another question: do you have backups?
