The Hand Tool has stopped working

I've noticed something odd recently. My mouse has been behaving weirdly. First of all, for about a week, mouse response in Logic was jerky and sluggish. Not enough for it to be a real issue, but annoying enough, what with all the crashing and all. That's stopped now, but something else has taken its place:
The hand tool no longer moves or copies channel-strip inserts or I/O settings from one strip to the other. I just get the standard click menu. The cursor turns into a hand, it just doesn't work. Also, when double-clicking on an insert or AU object sometimes doesn't open it, it just brings up the menu.
I've tried theree different mice and messed with my mouse settings in sys prefs but it still doesn't work!
Any ideas?
Thanks

I have this problem across the suite -- in Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign. Strangely, the problem turned out to be some kind of conflict with the Chrome browser. When I quite Chrome, the spacebar starts working properly again.
I've seen people saying that the same thing has happened with Firefox, so it might be a more general bug with the system accessing the web while Adobe apps are running. It seems to happen in particular when I am using Gmail or any site that uses a lot of AJAX (Twitter seems to trigger it as well) and is constantly refreshing in the background, but that may just be a coincidence.
Hope this helps!

    Clone tool has stopped working properly, the sample area doesn't follow the target area?

    I understand. I was very unhappy with Adobe when my PSE 11 stoped working properly. I had it for only about 6-7months before I updated my software on my imac and it all went downhill.... Then to add to that my Adobe account was hacked. Adobe never informed me of this situation. I heard through a friend that I should check to see if I was one of the very many who's online accounts were tampered with. I had to reset every single password and username for nearly 30 online accounts to avoid any further tampering with the hackers. And all Adobe suggested was for me to pay for an upgrade to PSE 12 which I did but wasnt very impressed to say the least ( i was on an online chat with them for over 2hours trying to get my PSE 11 issues solved to no avail). Then this sluggish performance starts happening again using the new version PSE 12?. I'm going to stay clear of adobe if I have the option to purchase similiar software from another supplier. I would and will encourage anyone else who has problems with there software to do the same. Older versions should work perfectly fine for ages. I wonder If Adobe is trying to get us all to pay for the monthly subscription option(s) to avoid having issues with older versions of their software. As the subscription option keeps you ontop of all the latest versions... I wouldn't put it past them.

  • Oracle BI Administration tool has stopped working

    Just now finished the 11g installation.But im not able to open BI Administrator.Im getting this error.Please help.
    "Oracle BI Administration tool has stopped working
    A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.Please close the program"

    I followed the below steps(taken from this forum) for installing OBIEE11g 64 bit version in a 64 bit machine.Installation completed successfully.But not able to open BI Administration tool.Any suggestions???
    There is not a particular 64bit installation. I think it works like this: if you are using a 64bit JDK the apps server is also running 64 bit.
    You can find the generic jar here: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/ias/downloads/wls-main-097127.html and take the generic one (http://download.oracle.com/otn/nt/middleware/11g/wls1033_generic.jar)
    You install this by a command like this (you have to look up the documentation): java -XXm.... .... wls1033_generic.jar
    Then a installer pops up.
    So these were my steps:
    - installed RCU
    - installed 64 bits JDK (jdk-6u21-windows-x64.exe)
    - installed Weblogic (wls1033_generic.jar)
    - installed OBI as "software only"
    - configured OBIi (config.bat you can find in <obi11g home>\Oracle_BI1\bin)
    All together it does not take much longer then the 32bit install. Only some extra steps to do.

  • Receiving a "FIXMAPI 1.0 MAPI Repair Tool has stopped working" error

    One of our users has Windows 7 Installed. When she emails out attachments, she right clicks it and chooses to "Sent To" and then selects "Mail Recipient".
    It opens and creates a new email fine. Upon pressing SEND it gives a "FIXMAPI 1.0 MAPI Repair Tool has stopped working" It does successfully email. 
    I attached a screenshot.

    Hi,
    Have you tried to repair the Office for the user?
    If that won't work, open the Explorer, and navigate to
    %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo
    Delete the file named Mail recipient. (Make a backup before you doing that, or you can just move it to the other folders.)
    And then open folder
    C:\Windows
    Find the file named Win.ini, open it with Notepad, find the section that begins with [Mail], and then add the following lines. Some lines may already exist, but you need all of them for this feature.
    [Mail]
    MAPI=1
    CMC=1
    CMCDLLNAME=mapi.dll
    CMCDLLNAME32=mapi32.dll
    MAPIX=1
    MAPIXVER=1.0.0.1
    OLEMessaging=1
    Save it and quit Notepad, restart the Computer.
    See if we can get rid of it.

  • I've just bought Photoshop CC and the spacebar shortcut for the hand tool isn't working?

    I've googled solutions for the problem and most of them say that I need to close down the other programmes I have open, as well as photoshop, and then restart the programme so I tried this and nothing seems to work. The hand tool by itself works but I much prefer using the spacebar shortcut as I need to work fast and it's much easier.
    Is there a way I need to activate the spacebar shortcut seeing as I bought the software this morning?
    Thanks

    I had this same issue and a restart would NOT fix the problem, neither would reseting the prefs, or any of the other solutions mentioned in this post.  I discovered the problem to be the Terminal application was automatically opening on login, which had the "Secure Keyboard Entry" option enabled. (Terminal menu item->Secure Keyboard Entry (check marked))  If I quit Terminal without disabling "Secure Keyboard Entry", the spacebar in Adobe Illustrator/Photoshop would work as expected.  Although, if I restarted with Terminal still loading automatically with "Secure Keyboard Entry" enabled then the spacebar would NOT work until I quit the Terminal app.  The problem is that when the computer logs into the user account and starts the Terminal app it hides the keyboard entry from other applications.  Somehow Adobe products are now sensitive to this and the spacebar stops working as is should.  So, the solution is to either make sure Terminal is not to load automatically at login, or disable the "Secure Keyboard Entry" option in Terminal and only enable it as needed.  Be sure to disable it when your are no longer using the terminal.  I have never seen this before and have been using Adobe products on OS X since its release, but I have not always used the Terminal as I do now in such a secure way.  Thanks again governments and criminals for even further complicating our lives!
    -Cheers

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    This works for some users. Not sure why.
    Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

  • I am running windows 7. My itunes keep shutting down on me. I keep getting the message itunes has stopped working What can I do?

    I keep getting the message itunes has stopped working. A problem has caused itunes to stop working correctly. What can be the cause?

    Hello Main Event,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    I found this article while researching iTunes quitting unexpectedly on Windows 7 and feel it will help to resolve the issue here.
    iTunes for Windows Vista or Windows 7: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1717
    It starts with troubleshooting 3rd party plug ins, then moves on to account troubleshooting if needed.
    Open iTunes in Safe Mode to isolate any inference with plug-ins or scripts not manufactured by Apple.
    Hold down the Shift and Control keys while opening iTunes. If performed correctly, you should see a dialog that says "iTunes is running in safe mode" before iTunes finishes starting up.
    After clicking Continue, determine whether the issue you were experiencing persists in Safe Mode.
    If you see the same issue while iTunes is in Safe Mode, proceed to the Create a New User Account section below. If you do not experience the same issue, consult iTunes: Troubleshooting issues with third-party iTunes plug-insfor steps on how to remove third-party plug-ins.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • I get the message "rnpag has stopped working" followed by "firfoxx has stopped working", what can I do to get firefox working again?

    Over the past few months firefox has been crashing unexpectedly but just today it crashed and will not reopen even after shutting down and restarting my laptop. The message that appears when I start my laptop and again when I try to open firefox is "rnpag has stopped working" this is then followed by the message "firefox has stopped working" when I request a solution to the problem nothing happens.

    You don't have "Photoshop" proper.  You have a cheapo emasculated version called Photoshop Elements.  That is NOT Photoshop.
    As Gene told you:
    Unfortunately, you're in the wrong forum.  This is not the Elements forum.

  • Message "itunes has stopped working". Itunes opens and can read an audio cd but as soon as the "get information" option is selected the message "itunes has stopped working" and the computer freezes or at least slows to a snail's pace.

    Hi,
    I have a PC running Windows 7 - 64bit OS. I have had iTunes installed since the beginning of the year on this computer and have not had any trouble with it except actually using iTunes but that is a different issue. The other day I inadvertently downloaded "Tuneup" which I don't want or need. I firstly want to say I have no concrete evidence that Tuneup has led to my problems. It may be coincidental that Tuneup and my problems appeared together.
    Tonight when I started iTunes, Tuneup took over a quarter of the screen on the right side. I closed this program. When the list of tracks was ready to be loaded from the CD and I went to" file" - "get info" option the message "iTunes has stopped working" would appear. Closing this message resulted in iTunes shutting down. I should say that before I closed the message the computer had essentially ground to a halt. The other curious thing was the behavour of the mouse pointer on the screen - the only place where it was visible was in the "iTunes has stopped working" box. Moving it out of the message box resulted in it disappearing. It would reappear if it were caused to wander into the message box.
    I subsequently removed Tuneup (control panel, programs and features, etc...) iTunes had not improved. I then deleted iTunes, firstly saving the library to a file on the desktop. Then I did a fresh(?) install of ITunes but there seems to be no change. A curious thing was even though I had deleted iTunes through the control panel the library was still there as if I had done nothing. The whole thing is a complete mystery and extremely galling.
    If someone has had a similar problem I would really like to know what the fixes were.
    Thanks for "listening".
    Cheers,
    Grant Andrews.

    I had a similar problem. I'm using 64bit Windows7. The following solution worked for me:
    COPY    QTMovieWin.dll
    FROM    c:\program files (x86)\common files\apple\apple application support\
    INTO     c:\program files (x86)/iTunes
    Also, reinstalling Quicktime has worked for others having this same issue.
