We cannot draw a selection or object from centre out using the option key Tried resetting tools no go this is occuring on macs and windoze machines in our school enviroment We are using CS3 Extended Thanks for any insite
one imac was set up and an image was created from that machine and then the rest created BUUTT an anomily in that set up would explain why but not why the same thing is happening on my laptop
To archive and install to fix a not working shortcut is really overkill, worst kind. Archive and install is a last resort, not a fix for just everything there might be.
Always start to check your personal user-prefs, delete the old ones, start over with new ones. And check defaults in all places where shortcuts can get overriden, like Spotlight, Systempreferences for Keyboard and mouse and the application itself.

Except that in this case, it is highly possible that a corrupt version of the Mac OS may have been mass-installed in every machine in the place from a Disk Image?
When every machine in the place is suffering from the same malady?
Computers don’t normally catch operational disfunction from each other (like contracting chicken pox!) but the fact that he used a Disk Image to install software site-wide could be a clue to what has gone wrong.
Unless one of his students has managed to write malware to disable the Option key on every computer in the place?!
Unlikely, actually more like impossible, if some of them are running Windows and some OS X. The "corrupt version of the Mac OS" suggestion I mean. More likely that global warming is JAMMING the option keys in some way.
Or more seriously that OS shortcuts have been hijacked by some common software.

This would be easy to transfer to every machine in the lab if the the disk image were made from the machine that suffers from these problems.

Logic would indicate that the original disc image as transfered to and installed on each machine is damaged. But how does one use the same disk image on both Macs and Windows machines (assuming we’re not using Windows software and OS on both)?
That is, if I’m understanding the problem Guntis posted. I think we need additional details of the installation procedure(s) used.
On my laptop it was a direct instalation from the DVD’s As I said earlier an Imac was set up and installed with all toys I wanted then image was created and the machines were then reimaged across the network with the master image I’m guessin the same process was used with the windows machines
I like idea of something hijacking the keyboard shortcut Can’t figure out were to look in the keyboard shortcut in Photoshops windows keyboard settings
But again would same issue be afflicting mac and windows

I have no experience of any of these apps. Look into your preferences for them – particularly Filemaker Pro, which I know has created problems in the past. Papercut too.
