Why can't I use the scroll wheel in Photoshop CC 2014?

Hi,
I have Photoshop CC 2014 on my laptop. It was working perfectly but then I had to reinstall Windows. Once I had reinstalled Windows and Photoshop I discovered that I could no longer use the scroll wheel on my mouse to move around documents in Photoshop. I can't scroll up to move the document up, scroll down to move the document down, use Alt+Scroll to zoom in/out or use Shift+Scroll to move left/right.
I've looked in the options and the option to use the scroll wheel to zoom is enabled - still not working.
Any ideas? Tried Googling but can't really find any solutions.
Thanks all!

I'm having the same issue. Scroll wheel works fine in all Adobe products besides Photoshop. I've tried reinstalling Photoshop, plugging in the mouse to a different USB port, reinstalling the mouse driver, and restarting my computer multiple times. This bug makes Photoshop practically useless, as everything takes about twice as long to get done.
I really hope we get a fix for this soon. So far CC has been a huge disappointment, filled with small, productivity-destroying bugs like this one.

  • Why does Adobe Reader use the scroll wheel to zoom in/out now, rather than actually scroll?

    Why does Adobe Reader use the scroll wheel to zoom in/out rather than actually, um, scroll? I can't find anywhere to change this function in Preferences, either.

    I had the same problem on my Windows 8 touch screen laptop.  It was driving me crazy! Every time I tried to scroll a page down, the program would zoom the page!  Made reading an ebook difficult.
    I finally found the solution:
    Under Edit select Preferences - General
    Uncheck "Make Hand Tool Use mouse-wheel zooming".

  • Why can't I scroll using the scroll wheel

    Today (01/31) I installed my new computer (HP h9-1180 Phoenix). I'm connected to a home network with two computers (#1 new, #2 old, and laptop).
    For some reason, no matter what mouse I use, I'm unable to scroll using the scroll wheel. If I want to scroll down a page, I have to use the scroll bar in the right margin.
    Is this a problem with this model computer or is there a file missing somewhere?
    Can anyone point me in the right direction?
    Thank you.

    what mouse are you using mostly and what part of the screen or app that you are on to use it ?
    and what OS are you using

  • I can't zoom in and out using the scroll wheel

      so i want to zoom in and out on photoshop how i always have...using ctrl and scroll wheel...
    but when i went to do it how i naturally do it, it didnt work..after some research i found you go into preferences, general and tick the box about zoom scroll or somthing.
    Yet when i go onto it i dont have any options about zooming !!?? from what ive seen i have less options than others.
    and im pretty sure it isnt only available on newer version..because i have done it before on really old photoshop versions.
    so any help would be appriciated, thanks

    Photoshop 7 doesn't have a preference for using  Zoom With Scroll Wheel like cs2 and later do, but holding down the Alt key and using the scroll wheel should work
    to zoom in or out.
    Does the Alt key work if you make a selection and then use Alt+Ctrl+D to bring up the Feather dialog?
    Does the scroll wheel work to change the layer blend modes by duplicating the layer and highlighting
    the layer blend mode of Normal in the layers palette and then using the scroll wheel to change blend modes?

  • How can I use the scroll wheel to move page by page

    I have Adobe Acrobat 8 and I would like to be able to use the scroll wheel in my mouse to move page by page instead of the page icons in the tool bar.  I recently had my computer updated from Windows XP to Windows 7 and I used to be able to do that in XP.  I do a lot of moving around in documents and it's easier to move page by page if I don't have to be moving the cursor all the time.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated as I don't want to everything else (like Office 2007 Word) to move whole pages with the scroll wheel, just Acrobat.

    Make sure that View - Page Display - Single Page View is selected in
    Acrobat.

    I have an old iPod Touch with old software that can no longer be updated:
    iOS version 6.1.6
    I've been searching for a solution to my iMessage login problem for months and tried everything from those frustrating links and all the tips from other users.
    Here is what finally worked:
    1) Settings > Privacy > Location Services > On
    2) Settings > General > Date & Time > Set Automatically > On
    3) Reboot device until Apple logo appears
    4) Settings > Messages > Sign In

  • Why can't I use the function of menu item 'issue delivery output'?

    why can't I use the function of menu item 'issue delivery output' in main screen of delivery note?
    And at the same time I can't use the button of printing in main screen of delivery note.
    the main screen of delivery note I mean above is in screen of maintaining shipping data instand of the first screen of VL02N.
    TKS in advance.

    Hi,
    Because delivery will be having header level output and item level output. So if u try to print through main screen then system will not know whether it is header related or item related. That is the reason it is only print output at header level or item level but not in main screen.
    I think u may have doubt like how billin will be issued output through Main screen. Because for billing both header and item level data are same..
    Regards

  • Why can't I use the Basic brush tool?

    I'm learning the ropes of drawing in Illustrator and I've fallen at the first hurdle. Why can't I use the Basic brush tool? Whenever I select the brush tool and use the 'Basic' brush type, the cursor turns into a hashed circle indicating I can't draw. If I load other brushes, I can draw with other brush types, but I can't use the Basic one. If I select the Basic brush when I have other brushes loaded and try to draw with it, it always defaults to a different brush! I don't understand why.
    On a related matter, I'm also having trouble changing brush size. I know that using the [ and ] keys changes brush size, but I have no idea what the values are. If I try this in Photoshop, I can see the brush size in the Options bar, but in Illustrator it doesn't appear anywhere! Not in the Brushes palette, the Stroke palette or the Appearance palette. Where can I see the brush size?

    Glitcher,
    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.

  • Why can't I use the landscape feature for iPhone 5? It only works in limited apps. I feel as though I wasted my money since I prefer to use my phone in landscape mode.

    Why can't I use the landscape feature in all of the apps? It seems like a waste of money since I prefer to use the landscape feature.

    It is up to the app developer to decide if the app should work in landscape mode or not. This is also true on Android phones, by the way.

  • Exporting to Facebook - why can't I use the old plug-in?

    It's nice that iPhoto '09 tried to help us with the Facebook exporter built-in. But why couldn't they make it useful? Why can't I tag people before I upload them? Why can't I upload photos to an existing album? I wouldn't mind so much, but they seemed to have disabled the existing (working) plug-in that was available. So now I have to export the pictures to my desktop and upload them through Facebook. Hmm...doesn't seem too user-friendly.

    Have you considered asking the author of the plug-in?

    Millions upon millions of people do find it very useful

    You can - have you watched the iPhoto tutorials?

    You can IF the album was created by iPhoto
