How to set the "move tool" as the startup tool for Photoshop?

For some reason, the rectangular marquee tool is now the startup tool, but I rarely use that tool! I remember in the past, it's always the "move tool". How can I change the startup tool in Photoshop?
Thanks!

As far as having the Move Tool selected at startup, your right about older versions of photoshop being able to do that, i think photoshoshop cs and older, but not in more recent versions.
Anyway, there are several of ways to do it and here's one:
1. Use the following script saved from Notepad (or any text editor) as, for example, Select Move Tool.jsx
// =======================================================
var idslct = charIDToTypeID( "slct" );
    var desc4 = new ActionDescriptor();
    var idnull = charIDToTypeID( "null" );
        var ref1 = new ActionReference();
        var idmoveTool = stringIDToTypeID( "moveTool" );
        ref1.putClass( idmoveTool );
    desc4.putReference( idnull, ref1 );
    var iddontRecord = stringIDToTypeID( "dontRecord" );
    desc4.putBoolean( iddontRecord, true );
    var idforceNotify = stringIDToTypeID( "forceNotify" );
    desc4.putBoolean( idforceNotify, true );
executeAction( idslct, desc4, DialogModes.NO );
Then in photoshop under File>Scripts>Script Events Manager use Browse under Script and set the script for the Photoshop Event>Start Application

  • How to keep a Movie Clip on the screen for 5 secs.

    I am having trouble with keeping a movie clip on the screen.
    I am setting it up to play a movie using the .onPress function. It
    is calling the movie but only shows it for a split second. How can
    I make the movie stay on the stage for 5 seconds? Here is how I
    have it coded:
    rc1MC.onPress = function() {
    if (rc1MC.hitTest(_xmouse, _ymouse, false)){
    _global.correct++;
    updateStats();
    var c1:MovieClip = this.attachMovie ("correct1_mc",
    "correct1",4300);
    var ymov = this._y;
    var gravity = 20;
    c1.onEnterFrame = function() {
    ymov += gravity;
    xmov *= 0.5;
    c1._rotation += 5;
    c1._x += xSpeed;
    c1._y = ymov;
    if (c1._y>stageHeight) {
    c1.removeMovieClip();
    delete this.onPress;
    Thanks Brandon

  • How do I move a movie I have synced from iTunes into the "Movies" tab of the Video App? I need to access a slideshow I made in IMovies and may not have WiFi. I did it once, but can't figure out how to do it again! The file is an m4v. Thank you!

    Im just guessing but it seems like you would have to get your movie into the correct folder on a computer then use iTunes to sync it to your iPad. If you've synced to a computer and have movies then on your computer should be a folder with the movie in it. You could export your iMovie to something like Dropbox then download from Dropbox to the folder you think it needs to be in the sync your iPad again. Again this is just a guess. Others may have a better answer.

  • How to set a variable value on the BPC Data Manager

    Hello BPC Experts,
    I'm creating a BPC10 NW version demo environment for our prospect customer.
    I made a data manager to import  BW data into BPC model from BW cube.
    I need to import just one month data into BPC from the BW cube that has more than one month data.
    When I run the data package manually, I can select a member of the time dimension prompt and I can import specific month data I want.
    But, in a case where the program (data manager) runs by JOB monthly,
    I can't select a member of the time dimension prompt manually.
    So I want to know how to set a  variable value to the time dimension prompt from a system date etc. automatically.
    Are there any way to set a variable value to the time dimension prompt on the data manager automatically from a system date?
    Or, do you have any other solution to import just one month data into BPC from the BW cube that has more than one month data  by the data manager running on JOB ?
    (without selecting a member of the time dimension prompt of the data package manually)
    Thanks in advance,
    Keisuke

  • Updated iPad 2 last night.  All movies (9) on my iPad can no longer be viewed.  The movie plays but the photos and scene selection are blank. How do I fix this

    Updated iPad 2 last night.  All movies (9) on my iPad can no longer be viewed.  The movie plays but the photos and scene selection are blank. How do I fix this

    Quit the app and restart the iPad.
    In order to quit or close apps - Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Try the videos app again.

    Hi. A JDBC connection pool is a set of identical, interchangeable, pre-made
    connections, and the controls to make sure only one user uses a particular
    connection at any one time. If you want to have different DBMS users, you can
    have a separate pool for each DBMS user, which may contain as many or few
    connections as you want. Some applications has a pool for the accounting
    applications, and another for the sales applications etc. Some do have a
    separate pool for john, jane, joe etc, each with one connection. Pools
    can be created and destroyed dynamically using the dynamic pool API.

  • HT1657 I rented a few movies and downloaded them to my computer.  Before they had been viewed, I updated my iTunes software and the movies were no longer in my library.  How can I access the movies as I have already paid for them?

    I have noticed an issue with utilizing the “stream” function on iOS 7. If you choose to just stream the movie by hitting the play button it seems to actually start downloading (which is fine) but if you are say halfway thru the movie and stop you can clearly see that storage has been reduced under the usage, yet under the “videos” tab it still states “No Data” the only way to delete what you have partially downloaded is to fully download the video, which is fine but there is no way to tell what videos have been partially downloaded (I.e which occurs a lot when your child switches between movies using the so called “stream” function). This becomes troublesome once the capacity of the ipad is almost met and you have no way to delete this data since you may have several videos that have started to be viewed (hence partially downloaded). Apple needs to somehow make it truly streaming or provide an update so the storage can be managed. The only way I have been able to remove partially downloaded videos is by doing a total software restore. (The video data that is in question when connected to my MacBook shows up in iTunes as “other”) if you have any insight into this issue it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    Here are the screenshots for what it's worth.

    '''Again, when I set my DNS server to automatically detect the servers both problems disappear and I have no issues at all.'''
    IMO opendns is either doing this on purpose (unlikely) or they're under some sort of attack/being used to attack the specific torrent sites although I'm open to other explanations. I believe using the automatic setting for DNS is using my own ISP's DNS servers (which again, work fine... but still...)
    I'd rather not use Google's public DNS servers as Google is to commercial these days and I think there's potential privacy issues.
    '''Again I have changed the setting for DNS servers back and forth several times to duplicate/verify the issue(s)... and the issues only happen with the opendns servers.'''

  • HT1657 I rented a movie on Itunes last night and I watched half of it before falling asleep. Today I tried to open the movie and watch the last half but I cannot find it. It has been less than 24 hours since I rented it. Where can I find the movie?

    I found my answer in another Thread and it worked... so for anyone who needs it, here it is:

    Had the same problem and spoke with Apple Support. They had me reset the System Management Controller:
    Shut down the computer. With the computer off, on the left hand side of the keyboard press shift+control+option along with the power button simultaneously and release. Wait 5-10 seconds and restart the computer.
    This solved my problem and I was immediately able to purchase, download, and play an HD movie from iTunes w/o any error message.

  • IDVD copies the movie but not the sound

    Hi,
    With IDVD one-step-dvd I try to copy edited movies from a Sony Handycam directly to DVD. Unfortenatly it copies only the images but not the sound. Anybody has the same experience and knows the solution? When I import the movie into IMovie the sound is allright.

    Quicktime, Quicktime Pro and iTunes don't convert "muxed" ( muxed means multiplexed where the audio and video are stored on the same track) video files properly. It only plays the video and not the audio.
    See:iPod plays video but not audio.
    You need a 3rd party converter to convert the file with both audio and video.
    See this for help: Guide to converting video for iPod (Mac/Windows).
