Spacebar quick key for Hand tool not working.

I have a brand new imac intel i7  27" and have installed photoshop cs5, but the spacebar hand tool is not  working. any ideas?
the hand tool and all other tools work, just the shortcut  key of holding the spacebar doesn't work.
Thanks,

I found that when I quit Firefox the spacebar works again as a shortcut for the hand tool. However as soon as I sign in to my gmail account it stops working. This is so frustrating! Will there be a fix for this sometime in the near future?

  • Spacebar shortcut for hand tool not working in Photoshop CC - have tried closing all other programs

    The spacebar shortcut for hand tool is not working in Photoshop CC - as suggested in this form & others I have tried closing all other programs with no result. I have also reset photoshop to default settings & this did not make any difference either.

    There may be a software conflict. I went through this today. When I did a search in Adobe foruns actually found tha answer on the Illustrator forum:  http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1027227?
    What the problem for me was an app called - 1Password.  I had opened it, but not given my password to login and it was on in the background. As soon as I quit 1Password, the spacebar Hand Tool worked.
    Then I opened 1Password again, and logged in. This time the spacebar works.
    Others mentioned conflict with Spotify. And Chrome too. Couple other things. Read that thread in the link above.
    Good luck!

  • Short key for copy does not work all the time now.

    After I have installed the latest OSX - Yosemite, my short key for copy does not work all the time.  It is infrequent how it works. I'm using the same keyboard that I have always used, my wireless logitech keyboard for mac.  Please help.

    I've plugged in my default mac keyboard and the short key copy still does not work.

  • Mouse drag, hand tool not working at all!

    So I've installed Photoshop CC 2014 and Illustrator CC 2014 on my computer, started a new file but only found that any action that includes mouse dragging - creating shapes, hand tool, pen tool - do not work at all, everything just do not respond, when creating a shape it will treat it as if I have clicked once (which pops out the create rectangle window for size input..), the same situation happens to Photoshop as well (perhaps all Adobe CC software). I've been trying everything that have been suggested on the forum (some from the links below): removing all other software at the background (spotify, 1password, etc). Also I've tried with using different sets of keyboard and mouse, either wired and wireless, still no luck. One situation that finally works is that all software work perfectly fine in safe mode, then I rebooted back to normal mode, try killing any background process that was not running in safe mode, still...not working at all...

    Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool, and reinstall.

  • Photoshop CS5.1 Hand Tool Not Working.

    My hand tool quit working. I looked in the forums. I've closed all browsers, restarted, rebooted, and removed the prefs.psp file. Not sure what to do now?

    Thanks but no. It's not the spacebar. The handtool works fine in Illustrator

  • Momentary Hand Tool Not Working

    I can select the hand tool from the tool bar or pressing H and can pan around the preview window. But I cannot get the momentary hand tool to work on this new laptop. With the Selection Tool activated, when I press the Space Bar, I get the hand icon, but pressing the left mouse key and dragging does nothing. It is driving me crazy.

    THANK YOU JAMES!
    I have been dealing with this issue for months!
    Having to go and grab the hand tool from the box was a major pain in the @$$!
    I thought is was a windows 7 issue.
    I did what you said , and the hand tool is working again! woo hoo!

  • Spacebar hand tool not working in PSCS5

    I have a brand new imac intel i7 27" and have installed photoshop cs5, but the spacebar hand tool is not working. any ideas?
    the hand tool and all other tools work, just the shortcut key of holding the spacebar doesn't work.
    Thanks,

    It's not specifically the browsers, methinks.
    I was running Chrome side by side with Photoshop CS5 and it worked fine until I used the Anesidora extension on my chrome. I disabled it and turned Chrome back on and my spacebar shortcut came back!

  • Spacebar hand tool not working

    my spacebar hand tool is not working (the shortcut key of holding the spacebar)

    Hit he space bar repeatedly.  If that doesn't do it, quit Photoshop, then hold down the Command+Option+Shift keys as you re-launch Photoshop and keep them down until you see the dialog box that allows you to delete, trash or reset your Photoshop preferences.

  • Space bar hand tool not working

    I have just got a Laptop with windows 8, and put my Photoshop CS5 on, so far eveything works appart from the space bar hand tool, which I use a lot.
    Its not working in RAW either.
    Thanks

    Hello Cozmic photos!
    I was also having this problem but I have found the soloution! It took me a very long time to figure it out but I finally have. I also have windows 8 and I have updated to windows 8.1 . As soon as I did that update I had to "re-install" my touchpad synaptics driver... I thought little of this. It just hit me aobut a week ago why the spacebar hand tool shortcut wasn't working. I have a Acer laptop, 64Bit, 8GB RAM, 750GB HDD, and running Windows 8.1. 
    So, the that the spacebar is not working IS because the driver that is installed for your touchpad or trakpad is disabling some features for use of the spacebar and your finger movemnet on the trackpad at the same time. Sadly, there is no way to fix this problem YET. But, if you use a mouse or a graphics tablet you will be able to get this feature back!
    I hope you understand the problem now. The only way to ix this is by notifying Synaptics about this issue and the next updated driver will have this issue fixed!
    Have a good day!

  • App Store "Option key for purchase" does not work to reinsatll Lion

    Hello,
    I was able to re-install Lion from the App Store
    by holding the "option key" while clicking on "Prchased" in the App store
    Since I upgraded to 10.7.1 this does not work anymore !
    Is it the upgrade to 10.7.1 that"s preventing a new download ?
    or
    Is it Apple that cancelled that access ?
    One way or the other how do I reinsatll Lion ? 
    Note: I have too many partition on my drive, so it did not create a "restore HD" for LIon
    Thanks

    My problem was resolved the following day, today. I went to the App Store then to Purchased. The associated button said Resume. Yesterday that had been totally unresponsive but today when I clicked it the download resumed for another minute or two and then Lion just installed. I presume that the system was just being pushed to the limit and beyond yeasterday.
    I hope that you have solved your difficulty - good luck!

  • OEM key for Win7 Pro not working on Win10

    Upgraded a Windows 7 Pro computer(OEM-licensed) with Windows 10 Pro but the OEM license key(on the Microsoft sticker) does not work. The upgrade was a clean install from a USB-stick. Anyone who has the same problem?

    Hi akjersem, welcome to the forums,
    an upgrade needs to be performed by starting the process from within the existing qulaified operating system, hopefully this reply in another thread will prove useful for you;

  • Option Key for Boot Camp not working with New iMac Keyboard

    Hi, I own a early 2006 Intel iMac. Recently, my wife complained that the keyboard was getting dirty. Basically I think she liked the new keyboard on the new Aluminum iMac better. We purchased it back in August and everything worked great. Oh I also had the beta version of Boot Camp installed. Everything worked great, hold Option down on boot and could choose which OS to go into.
    Fast forward to now, purchased Leopard and love it! Decided to wipe the system and do a fresh install. Everything is installed (Leopard, Boot Camp, Windows XP) and working great, that is except when I press and hold the Option key at start up. If I have the new keyboard installed, the Option key does not bring up the boot manager. However if I plug the original keyboard in and hold Option, it works!!!
    Ok I could see a problem if the new keyboard was NOT an Apple product. But it is and frustraiting as I can use the control panel to choose. This is a long round about method and does not make a happy wife with me. HELP!
    Jhan Jensen

    Thanks for the info! I was about to call myself and I may still do so. I am hoping if Apple gets enough of these calls then maybe it will spur them on to get it done sooner. (Apple are you listening) I will do the same with the KB swapping, she will be happy at least she can still use the new keyboard. She types a lot and has be really happy with the new keyboard and its response.
    Thanks again for the help!!!
