If Ctrl+Alt+Shift buttons not working to reset your adobe photoshop cs5.1 preference to default

How to reset Photoshop preferences (In Windows):
First, hold down all three Ctrl+Alt+Shift buttons
Now "while keeping those button held," simply open Photoshop or a file that opens with Photoshop
As Photoshop loads, you should get a prompt asking if you would like to "delete the Photoshop settings file", Click yes
You should now have a fresh slate with all of the settings returned to their default.
Its strange some keyboard cannot reset photoshop after you press Ctrl + Alt + Shift buttons.
And its no pop up to confirm delete
At finally i found the problems is type of my keyboard not compatible with photoshop
i changed my old keyboard immediately and its works!!
If you have problems with Ctrl + Alt + Shift buttons cannot reset your adobe photoshop cs5 preference , please do change your type of your keyboard to new keyboard

Is there a keyboard shortcut to launch firefox 3.6.3 with windows vista? Hot key (ctrl + alt + key) does not work.

The hot key (ctrl + alt + key) does not work. This is in Windows Vista.

Thank you Morbus and Cor-el, for your prompt replies. Here's what I did: I've placed the Firefox icon in the quick launch toolbar. So I right-click this firefox icon>Properties>Shortcut tab>in Shortcut Key field, add X (the word "None" changes to "ctrl + alt + X")>Apply>Okay>and that closes the dialog window.
Then, to try the new launch short-cut, I press and hold down, in order, ctrl, then alt, then x (holding all three down) . . . and nothing launches.
I thought this would do it! So any further thoughts would be a splendid help ---- many thanx!

Mac pro left shift button not working...

Hello my mac pro left shift button is not working what would be the problem, is it the major or minor problem plz help me...

Mac Pros are desktop, MacBook Pros are notebooks. There are usually two shift keys. Have you tried both?
Have you made sure the Caps Lock key is not enabled? Have you made sure the Num Lock key is not enabled (clicking either will disable them if they are enabled). Speech recognition can make a key give an alternative command if you set that up, try disabling speech recognition to see if that's the problem, or one of the Universal Access settings can do the same. Go to Apple menu -> System Preferences to manage those.

[SOLVED] Ctrl-Alt-F1 does not work from KDM login screen

I have some weird problems with switching to the virtual console from the graphical GUI.
rc.conf: KEYMAP=hu
Unless I define hungarian keyboard in KDE4 also, I cannot switch to vc/1 with Ctrl-Alt-F1. When the keyboard is defined in KDE4, i can switch.
But in the KDM login screen, I am unable to switch and there is no option to set the keyboard.
Any ideas please?

Hey, you got the point, this was the solution! Setting the option to "hu" solved my problem! Thank you!

9630 Keyboard/Buttons not working; hard resets and multiple reloads of OS did not correct

My BlackBerry 9630 Tour is a little more than a year old. Yesterday the keyboard, trackball, and all buttons stopped working while I was typing out an email. I could not power off the Blackberry without removing the battery for a hard reset. Unfortunately, even after many hard resets, the problem persisted, so I went to the forums for help and tried everything that seemed relevant (multiple times) with no success.
After reviewing a number of tech support posts, this problem does not appear to be unique to any given model of BB and contact with liquids is cited as a common but not the only cause for this condition.
I was outside on a very hot and humid day when the malfunction occurred so it is possible some perspiration may have come into contact with the keypad, convenience buttons, or trackball and caused the lockup.
I'm looking for someone with more smarts than me to help me troubleshoot, identify the actual problem, and identify the proper corrective actions. See below for a synopsis of my actions taken, with the exception of taking it to the shop for repair/replacement.
The corrective actions listed on the forums and blogs are varied but essentially fall into two primary solutions:
1. If moisture is suspected to be the issue, let the BB dry out overnight
    a. Pull the battery, naturally air dry or use a blow dryer, let it sit unplugged with no battery for at least 12 hours
    b. If this doesn't immediately work, try a clean install of the OS (see below)
    c. If this doesn't work, take to the shop and they'll either replace the keyboard and/or trackball or replace entire unit
2. If moisture is not suspected to be a factor then perform a backup followed by a clean install of OS
     a. Backup your files using Desktop Manager Backup and Restore
     b. Do a clean reinstall OS using Desktop Manager Application Loader
         i. The OS installation process is dicey and takes a little patience and focus-- you have to wait for the Desktop Manager to properly recognize the device before it can proceed on some of the steps and it may take several iterations to get completely through the process and get the "successful installation" message.
         ii. Further, you may need to keep the battery removed during the initial steps in the process and only insert it when the process gets to the point of actually trying to copy files into the BB memory
            * The BB LCD will display an icon that looks like a battery with a slash through it letting you know the process cannot proceed until a battery is inserted and the Desktop Manager Application Loader will also give you an error indicating it cannot find the device.
            * After inserting the battery, it will take a few seconds or more for the computer to recognize the USB device and for Desktop Manager to respond with the BB password pop-up window.
            * After typing in your BB password, the installation should continue.
    c. If you can get the OS successfully reloaded and your keyboard/trackball/buttons work -- great -- now restore your files and settings using Desktop Manager Backup and Restore and get on with your life.
    d. If this does NOT work after multiple successful clean OS installations apparently you are completely hosed; the only other option is to get it to the shop for repair or replacement.
1.. Does anyone have a troubleshooting procedures that will identify whether moisture is the root cause or not?
2. Is there another corrective procedure that's been missed?

Took BB to Sprint Store and technician took it apart, saw no evidence of moisture or any other damage, and concluded that the keyboard had failed. Not an uncommon occurance.
Also, he told me you cannot simply replace the keyboard, it is integral to the systemboard, so you need to replace the entire device.
He did commend the troubleshooting approach used prior to going to the store -- most folks won't take the time to do even basic troubleshooting (like taking out the battery), they just go to the store and say "fix it please". He confirmed that the steps outlined in the initial post were correct and did not have any other solutions.
Take away:
If you want to do some troubleshooting yourself to check for moisture, the process was pretty straightforward. After watching the technician, most folks with a little technical or mechanical aptitude should be able to manage the dismantling process. You just need a small phillips head screwdriver and a little patience. Good lighting and a magnifying glass or reading glasses also help!

Buttons not working when implimented using Adobe Configurator

Hi there, i recently learned about a new program called Adobe Configurator, which allows you to build your own custom panels for Photoshop. The program is brilliant, a brilliant idea, and all seems to work perfectly. However, its connection to Photoshop in only two buttons that i have tried to use, seems to fail.
I set up two of my custom buttons to follow the path of "File > Share My Screen...", and the other to follow the path of "File > Device Central...". However, weather i have a document opened or not, these buttons never work. I get the error message saying "The command "Select" is not currently avalible.". It says this with other buttons, but only when there is nothing open, so it is understandable. So do these buttons just not work, or am i doing it wrong?
Thanks.

That's a limitation of many PDF readers on the iPad. They don't support interactivity well. There are a few that do. Here's a posting on InDesignSecrets.com that I did on the subject of differences between PDF readers:

My favorite is PDF Expert. However, I later found I had to outline the type if I used them in an InDesign-created button.

Radio buttons not working after resetting

I have a form with two radio buttons for each question. Each question is in its own frame "Q1," "Q2," etc. I also have a btn_Reset created to reset the form, i.e. reset all radio buttons and return to "Q1" frame. All buttons work as they should, including resetting the radio buttons, however, once I reset the radio buttons and return to "Q1" to start over, the actions associated with each radio button upon clicking on them do not work. Here's my code:
//Frame "Begin"
gotoAndStop("Q1") //I also define my variables in frame "Begin"
//Frame "Q1"
rbtn_YESQ1.onPress = function():Void
     attachMovie("btnReset", "btn_Reset", 1, {_x:0, _y:0});
     btn_Reset.onRelease = function():Void
          xfa.host.resetData("radioGroupQ1"); //this resets my radio buttons in "Q1" frame
          gotoAndPlay("Begin");
//Once I return to "Begin" frame, my variables are reset to their initial value since that's where I originally defined them, and I go to "Q1" because that's what the code in frame "Begin" says. Here is where I click on rbtn_YESQ1 again and even though the button does fill in, it does not attach btn_Reset to the stage as defined by rbtn_YESQ1.onRelease function.
What am I doing wrong?

Here's the full code for the radio buttons:
////Code in frame "Q1"////
//rbtn_YESQ1 code
yesListener = new Object();
yesListener.click = function (evt)
    mc_EmptyReset.attachMovie("btnReset", "btn_Reset", 1);
    mc_EmptyReset.btn_Reset.onRelease = function():Void
        //Places "Reset Confirmation" window on top
        attachMovie("mcResetConfirmation", "mc_ResetConfirmation", getNextHighestDepth(), {_x:24.0, _y:56.0});
        resetConfirmationTween = new Tween(mc_ResetConfirmation, "_alpha", easeNone, 0, 100, .5, true);
        mc_ResetConfirmation.btn_No.onRelease = function():Void
            mc_ResetConfirmation.btn_No.enabled = false;
            mc_ResetConfirmation.btn_Yes.enabled = false;
            resetConfirmationTween.yoyo();
            resetConfirmationTween.onMotionFinished = function():Void
                removeMovieClip(mc_ResetConfirmation);
        mc_ResetConfirmation.btn_Yes.onRelease = function():Void
            mc_ResetConfirmation.btn_No.enabled = false;
            mc_ResetConfirmation.btn_Yes.enabled = false;
            resetConfirmationTween.yoyo();
            resetConfirmationTween.onMotionFinished = function():Void
                removeMovieClip(mc_ResetConfirmation);
                gotoAndPlay("Begin");
rbtn_YESQ1.addEventListener("click", yesListener);
//Same code as above btn_NOQ1
noListener = new Object();
noListener.click = function (evt)
     //same code as above...
rbtn_NOQ1.addEventListener("click", noListener);
////Code in frame "Begin"////
gotoAndStop("Q1");

Buttons not working, will reset.

Just wondering if anyone has seen this before. With the iPod off, I can press the button to turn the iPod on. Once it's on and at the main menu, neither the buttons nor the scroll wheel do anything at all. I can reset the iPod by pressing select+menu without any trouble.
This seems to imply that the buttons work. Any takers on why they're not doing anything in the menu though?
Info: Used iPod I got as a gift. It's out of warranty. I've reset it both hard and soft many times. It connects perfectly to Windows and iTunes, I can access the drive from Windows as well. I've updated the firmware to the newest version through iTunes, I've reset factory settings twice, and I've done many, many soft resets without any trouble.
- Perplexed and very yearning to use iPod. (EE student, not afraid to get hands dirty either)

Just an addendum to the post, the hold switch does work fine. I have read about the problems with other 5G iPods and have toggled the hold switch quite a lot with my fingers off of the scroll wheel to let it recalibrate.
I'm able to load and play files off of the iPod with iTunes as well without any problems; which is interesting because the iPod itself is now at the language choosing screen following my restores. Either way, everything seems to work fine except for the buttons and wheel not working, except for allowing me to reset whenever I want with menu+select.

[SOLVED] [Gnome 3] Move/resize with alt+mouse button not working

Hi,
Anyone have any ideas why I can't move or resize windows in Gnome 3 with the alt key + mouse button?
From what I've read it should be possible to do this in Gnome 3, or have they removed it?
The alt key works fine for other tasks, like alt+f4. By looking at xev the keyboard seems to generate a correct alt key as well:
KeyPress event, serial 32, synthetic NO, window 0x2200001,
root 0x15d, subw 0x0, time 74162047, (-380,478), root:(2169,522),
state 0x0, keycode 64 (keysym 0xffe9, Alt_L), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes:
XFilterEvent returns: False
Both the middle and the right mouse button works fine for other stuff, like pasting and opening menus.
Anyone have any ideas?

I suffer the same problems. metacity is already installed. Any idea what else I might look for?
And did it reactivate Alt+right-click to resize?
For geoffm and anyone who stumbles across this, as per http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions … dows-again, you used to be able to use the gconf editor, but now it's (from the command line)
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences resize-with-right-button true
This nearly did my head in back when it changed.. now I just have to find out how to change the behaviour that seems to have cropped up in latest gnome 3.10 update, where you have to click the _left_ mouse button to finish/stop the resize.. Quite annoying

Old Serial # not working to re-install Adobe Photoshop CS2 on different computer

Having a problem installing my copy of Adobe Photoshop CS2 - I have the CDs and I have the serial # from the installation on the old computer, but when I enter the information on the new computer, it tells me it is an invalid serial number. The old computer is a Windows 2000 computer and is running version 9.02. Please provide any assistance you can, as I would like to move the program to my new computer. Thanks! Bob

I was able to login to the Adobe Licensing website (https://www.licensing.adobe.com) as I found an older user ID from the paperwork when we first bought the product in 2005. I was able to bring up the End User ID, which gave me the 24 digit serial number needed to install on the newer computer. The older computer only had 20 digits listed on the software for security purposes, so I needed 4 more digits. Once I got the right serial number, I was able to properly install the Adobe Photoshop CS2. Thanks to Jeff A. Wright for his help!

I keep getting the error message "could not open a scratch file because the file is locked" even after resetting my preferences. I have to use Ctrl, Alt, Shift to start photoshop every time

I'm unable to start Photoshop without holding down Ctrl, Alt, Shift each time I open it. Also Lightroom is now unable to open photos in Photoshop. I'm at a loss as to how to fix this.

Hi there! Because the forum you originally posted in is for beginners trying to learn the basics of Photoshop, I moved your question to the Photoshop General Discussion forum, where you'll get more specialized help.

Adobe Illustrator CS5 (ALT DRAG COPY) not working. Why and how do I fix it?

I click on the object I want to duplicate, then I click ALT (double duplicate arrows appear) and then select the object (double duplicate arrows disappear), then I drag and nothing duplicates or copies...all it does it move the object I was trying to copy. How do I fix this?

jokerlex,
You may be lucky to have one of the easy ones at the top work.
The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file (you may have tried/done some of them already); 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
1) Close down Illy and open again;
2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to 3 times);
3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
Even more seriously, you may:
6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.

Shortcut [ALT]+[SHIFT]+[P] doesnt work with Vista ultimate??!

hello
when i try to create a new position key frame in the time line, i always used the shortcut [ALT]+[SHIFT]+[P]. on other versions before Vista it was working perfectly.
on the Vista ultimate though, instead of creating a key frame, i get the windows "mediaplayer" loading up, every time i use this shortcut.
i looked for this shortcut to change within media player, but couldn't find it.
is there a way to change the shortcut inside after effects?
i am using after effect CS3.
all other shortcuts (like [ALT]+[SHIFT]+[J] or [ALT]+[SHIFT]+[S]) are working fine...
thank you
R Sting

Go to the start/Windows button, click and in the search box type "Windows Media Player." DON'T select the icon (thereby opening the application).
INSTEAD, right click the icon for the media player and choose "Properties." You will see a box for shortcut...just delete the one that's there and it will now show as "None."
