Shortcut Ctrl + Shift + arrow key doesn't seem to work
I only started using Windows 7 a few days ago (new computer came pre-installed), and I seem not to be able to select text by using the shortcut keys Ctrl + Shift + key management (to select text). Because it is a little the keystone of what I do for a living (writing and editing text), I'm naturally upset.
I don't know if it's because for one reason or another the shortcut no longer exists in Windows 7 (but I expected more hits from google and General hoohah if this is the case), or maybe because I mucked with the locale of Windows when he started everything first. After all, Ctrl + Shift is here as a possible shortcut to change the settings (which suggests a potential conflict). I had trouble original, namely how to replace the default Windows come with locales and eventually remove and reconfigure the settings several times until I got what I wanted. Maybe I saw something up along the way without realizing it?
Right now I use the keyboard layout United States (native English), UK regional settings (date time, etc.), but have a German version of Windows, if it has been initially implemented differently. I made sure that Ctrl + Shift is NOT selected as a shortcut to change the language settings - basically he has that one language, set up and all the shortcuts are disabled in the window.
I had also several popups triggered inadvertently accessibility and have no idea how I responded to them. I disabled everything that I could find in this regard to little too (as again the Ctrl and shift keys can behave differently).
I have two keyboards, and both have the same problem; I tested this on a XP computer, and the shortcut works very well-only is not the keyboard.
I found someone else asking the same question elsewhere on the net, but it is impossible to find an answer...
So:
The shortcut still exists (I guess for this)
No idea how to get it back?
Solved the problem - was not Windows, it's the stupid software that came with my screen using the same shortcuts. Disabled the software, everything works again.

Hello
I have a weird problem where key F6 on my keyboard does not work under Vista but works fine when I run ubuntu. I checked with MS material support and they confirmed that it is not a driver problem. Something wrong with Vista here.
Any help will be useful.

CTRL + Shift + number key combination does not work
I can use Ctrl + Shift + [A - Z] very well, but Ctrl + Shift + [0-9] (main keyboard, not the numeric keypad) does nothing. I checked for access keys but don't see active at the level of Windows.
Clown fish was the culprit. It must be turned off completely. Just by disabling shortcut keys don't seem to work.

CC of Photoshop for PC - ctrl-alt-arrow key does nothing
I installed Photoshop CC on a new PC, and the combination of keys ctrl-alt-arrow does nothing. He used to reduce the area of framing around pixels and move the selection by 1 pixel. Now, it does nothing. Using shift-ctrl-alt-arrow shrinks the selection around the pixel rectangle and move the selection of 10 pixels, meaning that it is supposed to do. Any help is appreciated.
I got this in Windows 7 with my driver Intel HD 4000 as well. Enabling auto-start for the Intel Graphics Control panel was the problem. He caught in the trap of the combination of keys Ctrl-Alt arrow, but not the Shift-Ctrl-Alt-arrow key combination.
If the solution is simple http://superuser.com/questions/796396/how-to-disable-igfxhk-module-process-from-starting-u p-with-windows
I just went into msconfig > Services tab, deselected "Intel HD Graphics Control Panel Service" and restarted the PC.
You will always have access to the graphical control panel, but Ctrl-Alt-arrow is no longer blocked in Photoshop.

My spellchecker of firefox doesn't seem to work; That's assuming that it exists at all. For example, when I misspell a Word when you compose an email using hotmail and I try to correct using the spell checker of hotmail, I get a message saying that I am using a browser that has of own built-in spellcheck. If it is integrated, how the hell can I find?
This has happened
Each time Firefox opened
Is as far as I know, always
You must install a spelling dictionary, only the US version comes with a dictionary.

ASSIGNABLE button 6 doesn't seem to work.
I tried to affect 'assignable button 6' to 'steadyshot' on my FS7, but it doesn't seem to work.
Countermeasures that I tried:
Thinking that I might need to reboot the camera, I have it turned on and then turning off. I also tried to unplug and re - connect my connection the handlegrip LANC and swapping of lenses (all the Sony E-mount). I also tried other functions as peaking to assinging but no matter how hard or soft how I push the number 6, he's as dead as a dodo.Has anyone else had this problem or is there something that I'm not just doing?
Sorry everyone. I'm afraid that the culprit was myself. I expected a menu pop up and did not notice that the icon has been change to reflect the State.
Therefore, the button works very well - it was my brain and eyes (I didn't put my glasses on!) which were defective.
