I can't get the hand tool to move around the page by using the spacebar?

This has been working for me for ages but it has just stopped working an hour ago... Have I accidentally turned off a setting somewhere?

If the type tool is active with a blinking cursor, press Alt/Option to activate the hand tool.
With no blinking cursor, press Alt/Option + Spacebar.
If this is not the issue, try replacing your preferences.

    Suddenly my space bar is no longer giving me the hand tool to move around on my artwork window.  How do I reset this?

    Thanks for getting back. I know my answers seem too obvious at times, but never leave out the simple ones just in case.
    So lets look at two things: Keyboard Shortcuts and System Preferences.
    Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts opens a dialog box. Press your Option key, and the Cancel button turns into a Reset button to get shortcuts back to defaults. Clicking on Reset may fix it.
    The second is Preference resets. Hold down cmd-opt-shift and start Photoshop. It will ask if you wish to delete the settings file. Answering "Yes" many times clears up the problem.

    In Adobe® Reader® is the tool for opening and using Adobe PDFs that are created in Adobe Acrobat®. I have very useful tool to move on the page on the screen it's called "Hand tool" .
    The tool can allow you to move around the big page by the mouse.

    I look also on adds on and I did not find one .
    thanks

    I think the [https://addons.mozilla.org/af/firefox/addon/grab-and-drag/ Grab and Drag] extension is much closer to what's being requested.

  • Can't Get The Spacebar To Pause Or Play A Clip?

    I have started with the Apple Pro Training Series book on Shake.
    On page 39 it states that the spacebar can be used to start and stop clips (like in FCP etc.).
    Mine doesn't.
    It also says that the . key will play forward (which it does) and the , key will play backwards, which it doesn't.
    Am I making a mistake or could my "modern" aluminium keyboard be the cause?
    I'm using Shake 4.1

  • After I exported a PDF to a Word doc and downloaded it, I can't get the pointer tool to work.

    After I exported a PDF to a Word doc and downloaded it, I can't get the pointer tool to work. When I click on the document text, the only tool is the "move" tool. I can't edit or select text. Please advise.

    Version of Adobe: Adobe ExportPDF (not Pro)
    Operating system:  Windows 8.1
    Steps I am taking: When the PDF file is selected and opened, I clicked on Tools menu on right side of the screen; then I clicked on Select PDF file; then under Convert To, I selected Microsoft Word (*.docx); then I hit the box below that; and clicked Convert. I then see the message that says it is Converting to Export PDF Online. Then I see a link below that, that says Download Converted File. This takes me online to Adobe Acrobat .com, where, I see the command, Export PDF, and see a blue box on the same screen that says Select PDF Files to Export. I click on the thumbnail of the file I want to export. This brings up, online, a screen containing the file I wanted to convert to Word. Then, on the same screen, I click on the icon on the right hand of the screen that says Download. then I click on the box on the bottom the screen that contains the Word document I had wanted to convert. This brings up the Word doc. in Compatibility Mode the latest Word version, which I am unfamiliar with and which has a Picture Tools tab that I cannot escape from and I cannot get any selection tool other that the Move pointer, and I cannot find the Select text pointer to select any text on the page. I don't want this Word version and do not know how to return to the old version of Word that I am familiar with.
    Can you help me, please?

  • How can I get the Fireworks pen tool to disengage from an open path shape (and stay disengaged)!

    I am so frustrated! I can't get the fireworks pen tool to disengage when I am finished creating an open path shape (double clicking the end-point isn't working).  The only way I can disengage the pen tool  is to click on a different tool, BUT ...if I do that (i.e., click on a different tool), and then go back to the pen tool (with the intent to create another open path shape), the pen tool automatically engages the last point of my prior open path shape ... and ... no matter what I do, I can't get the pen tool in Fireworks to stop doing this with my open path shapes.
    If anyone has any helpful advice, it would be much appreciated!
    Thank you!
    (note: I prefer not to have to go back and forth creating open path shapes in Illustrator then bring them into Fireworks, but if all else fails, I suppose I'll have to as a work-around.)

    Have you tried holding the Command key and clicking away from the last point? The Command (⌘) key will bring up the Subselection tool; clicking on the canvas with it will allow you to disengage from the path. Once you release the key, the Pen tool will return and you can begin another path.

    I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 10. It came installed on my HP Desktop. I am can not get the warp text tool to work. It has worked in the past. Once I click warp text, the little window does not pop up, and if I try to do anything else after I click warp text, it wont let me. Just sounds the ding, alert, can still slightly navigate the program but can not use any other tools after clicking warp text. I just have to open task manager and close the program. not sure if I'm doing something wrong or maybe I just need to uninstall and re install. Having trouble finding out how to uninstall and reinstall because the program came pre installed on my desktop.

    It actually sounds like the warp text window is opening off screen.
    Resetting the photoshop elements 10 preferences should fix it.
    *Press and hold the Shift+Ctrl+Alt keys just after you start the launch of the photoshop elements 10 editor
    *Keep holding the keys down until you get a dialog asking if you want to delete the adobe photoshop elements setting file
    *Press Yes

  • HT5661 i bought a second hand phone and now can not hold of the seller,  how can i get the phone activated in my name now?

    Hi all,  I have bought a second hand iphone 5s and have found it is still activated to the last user... i can't get hold of them anymore,  how can i get the phone activated in my name?

    If iOs 7 is installed on that iPhone, you will not be able to activate it without
    the requested information. It is called Activation Lock and is a security
    feature built into iOS 7. There is no workaround.

  • How can I get the erasure tool to leave a white or color background and not checkered?

    When using the erasure or erasure background tools, it leaves a checkered background. How can I get the erasure tool to leave a white or color backround?

    Jpegs can't have transparent areas. Most likely you had layers and were forced to save "as a copy", which means that the image which remains open in PSE is not the jpg. A file saved as a copy makes a copy in the save format, but it's not like save as where you now see the newly saved version instead of the original. The original remains open and unsaved onscreen.

  • In Yosemite, How can I get the "READER" button back in the Tool Bar at the top of the screen

    In OS X Yosemite,
    How can I get the "READER" button back in the Tool Bar for Safari at the top of the screen ?
    Thanks,

    I don't see the "READER button".
    I see "READ LATER" but not the "READER" function.
    Maybe I'm doing it wrong.
    Please continue to HELP ME with this question.
    In the previous version of Safari, there was a "READER Button" on the right side of the tool bar. This brings up the selected web page in a READER mode all by itself, without the ads, etc.
    Are you saying that I can get this function by clicking on the Left side of the Address bar?
    When I do that, I get lots of icons, but NOT the READER button.
    Thanks

  • PSE9 Can't get the blur tool to work..

    I have a problem with PS elements 9.
    Basically .. In my last package I liked to use the manual blur tool, I see elements has one (a teardrop shaped tool from the bottom left)
    I have selected that blur tool and selected blur at 100% and it pretty much does nothing.
    The other two tools, sharpen and smudge work as expected I just can't get the blur tool to work.
    I want to be able to drag the blur tool across a part of the image and blur it.. but it does nothing!
    If I look at the pixel level then at 100% blur the tool is very slightly blurring the image but only very slightly, I want to be able to paint blurryness across parts of an image and it is not letting me.
    Am I doing something wrong?

    Oh, that is a pain.
    I am used to using a manual blur tool and I like it.
    I can see that the select then filter blur does blur a lot more (as much as I would like) but I don't like the way the selection tool works it always seems to end up with blurs that look unnatural at the edges...
    I suppose I will have to find a way of using it or buy another package.
    Very dissapointed.

  • I downloaded firefox 5 but lost my tool bars, how can i get the old version back?

    I downloaded firefox 5 but lost my tool bars, how can i get the old version back? It said my tool bars are not compatible. I want them back.

    That is the new appearance Firefox 4 and now Firefox 5, you can easily put things back because Firefox is customizable.
    You can make Firefox 4.0.1 and '''Firefox 5.0''' look like Firefox 3.6.17, see numbered items 1-10 in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 look like 3.6)]
