My selection tool is stuck on a sign - and the use of all standard methods for change sign + fail.  How to unlock it?

My selection tool is stuck on a sign - and nothing that I make using standard methods to change a sign of failure.  How to unlock it?

Have you tried to reset the tool by right-clicking here?

Have you tried to reset the preferences?

To reset the preferences:

If Photoshop is already open on your screen, close (Quit). Then press and hold Shift + Ctrl + Alt (Win) / command + shift + Option (Mac) on your keyboard and start Photoshop. A dialog box appears asking if you want to delete the preferences file existing ("settings"). Click Yes in the dialog box. The existing preferences file will be discarded and a new one will be created.

  • Creation of my own CA, self-signed certificates and the use of these

    I'm stupid. Three years ago, I created my own CA and my own wildcard certificate for my OS X Server (always 10.8.5 with Server 2.2.5). I install my public Root CA on clients who make use of my server. At these must not often updated and the work is complex, so I created a CA Vault take care of a few scripts and configuration of openssl. What I forgot is document how to get these used by Server.app. That's why I'm stupid, because I struggle to reproduce what I did and discovered three years ago.

    I use two scripts. (MYNAME, mydomain and tld are generic strings, of course in reality I use my own name and mydomain.tld)

    The first is for the creation of a root certification authority:

    #!/bin/bash
    
    # Only edit these:
    mycaname="MYNAME Certificate Authority"
    myrootname=mydomaincaroot
    
    # Run in current dir:
    mydir=`pwd`
    
    mkdir RootCert >/dev/null 2>&1
    
    if [ ! -e "$mydir"/RootCert/"$myrootname".key -o \
         -e "$mydir"/RootCert/"$myrootname".crt ]
    then
        openssl req -config "$mydir"/openssl.cnf \
      -new -x509 \
      -keyout "$mydir"/RootCert/"$myrootname".key \
      -out "$mydir"/RootCert/"$myrootname".crt \
      -days 3650
        openssl pkcs12 -export -clcerts \
      -inkey "$mydir"/RootCert/"$myrootname".key \
      -in "$mydir"/RootCert/"$myrootname".crt \
      -out "$mydir"/RootCert/"$myrootname".p12 \
      -name "$mycaname"
    
        echo "Now import ""$mydir""/RootCert/""$myrootname"".p12 in KeyChain"
        echo "For this, unlock the System KeyChain first, then import"
        echo "NOTE: this imports your private key in the System Keychain"
        echo "So it can be used for signing activities."
        echo "This is less safe then keeping your private key on media that"
        echo "cannot be accessed from the system, like a safely stored USB stick"
    else
        echo "Your root CA crt and key already exist! I will not overwrite this"
        echo "as this could overwrite a still used private key and lose you access"
        echo "to signed certificates, e.g. for revoking them"
    fi
    

    I think I know what to do (but Advisor is always welcome). I have to add the certificate of generic identity for the Keychain system, after which I can use in.app.

    Now I encounter another problem: when I enter the certificate in the system Keychain, it ends up in/etc/certificates without a. fichier.pem. See: OS X 10.8.5 Server 2.2.5/Keychain Access certificates issue for more details.

    Help is always welcome.

  • In Muse, I can't use the tool of selection on the thumbnails without ALL distort them. "Change set" is not enabled and "thumbnails is Freeform. Very frustrating!

    I can't turn off the function "Edit together" in the control panel thumbnail widget. I can uncheck, but my thumb nails all continues to edit together. What is the cure?

    Hi Craig,.

    It is not possible to make the different dimensions of the thumbnails on a slideshow widget. Change all the works for thumbnails of formatting, do not to the re-sizing. You will need to use a widget of composition, if you need thumbnails of different sizes.

    Please check this related discussion here, How can I create a Lightbox with various sizes of tile. for example landscape, portrait etc?

  • Photoshop Elements 14 Quick Selection tool breaks

    I often use the quick selection tool to clone or highlight areas of the image for the special edition. Invariably, after several weeks of use, it stops working. It does not have the AutoFill feature nor can I enclose an area for further editing. In the past, I just uninstalled and reinstalled Photoshop Elements. Last week, not even this method worked. This was also a problem in Photoshop elements 11, in my experience. What is the cause of the problem and what is the solution?

    A simple reset will often do the trick. Go to this link and select the Quick Selection tool:

  • How to create a 2nd selection using the elliptical selection tool

    I try to create the outer edges darker IRIS with the elliptical selection tool. I am trying to elect the iris and then create another selection of the iris 2nd with the elliptical selection tool. This does not work for some reason any. I work from the examples and exercises in the book "Portrait Professional retouching TECHNIQUES for photographers using Photoshop" by Scott Kelby. But for some reason, the tool does not work and I'm going through the procedure of Scott Kelby said to do.

This allows you to create another selection on the 2nd Iris. This is the part that is not work - the creation of the second selection on the 2nd Iris.  can someone help me with this problem?

  • Selection tool has suddenly stopped working

    Hi, I use a Mac - Adobe CC.

    InDesign works perfectly all day until that selection tool stopped working without reason.

    The arrows can move items and the free transform tool can also - I can just drag with selection tool.

    I know its not jigs, objects locked, sleeping etc.

    I have reset the preferences and reinstalled twice: InDesign still doesn't work!

    Did you reboot?

  • Impossible to move objects with the Selection tool

    So I just installed Illustrator CC, I have now on a trial license.  An hour ago, Illustrator suddenly began to refuse to move objects, while I'm in the selection tool.  I can move objects in the free transform.  I use shortcut keys a lot, so it's really slow me down.  I hit 'V' to click on and then move an object, and then it won't move. I get the error sound, but no dialog box appears to explain the error.

    Because I'm about to bite the bullet and start paying a hefty monthly fee for this program, at my trial runs out, that's enough aggravating circumstances.  Anyone has any ideas what can cause this?

    Looks like there could be a hidden modal dialog open. Hit the ESC key does nothing to release the objects?

  • CS5, blocks of text with the selection tool.

    InDesign CS5:

    I work on several documents that requires to move blocks of text.

    When I select the text block with the selection tool, my cursor will move immediately to the text tool.

    I'm not double click, only clicking once to select.

    I don't want to edit text, select only the text block, so I can move it.

    Is there a way to disable this feature?

    Or maybe a tip and Trick so the tool rest the tool selection and not switch to the type tool.

    Thank you in advance.

    Kathryn

    As stupid as it may sound, try a different mouse.

    We prefer to keep the choice to convert an empty block to a block of text, but here already are blocks of text.

    I don't think you can, but in the dialog box refine edge, you can use the contrast setting to get rid of most of the anti-aliasing.

  • Help! Path selection tool does not.

    Earlier today my path selection tool worked great. I could add the vectors and move. Now, everything he does is moving the

    whole shape rather than the selected vector. I tried to restart the program, different projects and I even tried restarting the PC all together. Still works the same. I don't know what happened or how to fix it. I really want to push a project before 5 pm CST I would be very grateful if anyone knew how to solve this problem.

    Ctrl-click on a point, then you can move it.  This is because it switches to the Direct Selection tool.

    In my view, change the easier path with the pen tools myself, but to each his own.
