Hi, Im not sure why but I cant seem to get any shortcuts to work in Photoshop 8 (cut, paste, select, etc.). I have tried to set up new ones but every time i run Photoshop, my keyboard is pretty much useless, it does not work at all (I hava a laptop…not that it really matters).
Anyways if anyone can help me out with this it would be greatly appretiated. Thank you.

Hmmm…it seems someone might be using an activation crack. I wonder who that could be? Maybe someone here has an idea? If someone suggests a solution of removing said crack, then someone might learn that some problems such as this are better left unquestioned, particularly in a forum sponsored by the manufacturer of that software.

You know, if everyone went by the name of someone, then noone here would likely be thought of an an artist, since it shows such lack of imagination.

Someone must be tired to be writing some such nonsense as this. 😉 Yep, I am.

Please contact Adobe Customer Support, they have a surprise waiting for people whose copies are showing this problem.

Yeah, we stagger bleary eyed from our beds, stumble across to the computer and log in straight away to see if any more lucky people have stumbled across the [ctrl] key surprise package.

Before you all snap on everyone who might ever report problems like this, you should do a bit of research, too.

Users who have the first-generation Logitech Freedom series keyboards who use the USB interface for the keyboard, can actually run into this occasionally. If you plug the keyboard in AFTER the PC has started up, Photoshop CS just plain refuses to recognize it. The studio I work at doesn’t have cracked copies, but we kept running into issues similar to that before we discovered the root cause.

Thank you Corran. That’s an excellent point.

Hey thank you very much, the keyboard was the problem, as I am using a registered copy of the product, and if it is cracked then maybe I should speak to my school as they give me the software with my computer. So like someone already suggested, before you assume people are using illigal copies of the software maybe you should do some reasearch as well and find out what it is that is actually causing these issues.

Either way thank you to the person who helped me out with the keyboard thing.

I thought "someone" said they had a laptop and no mention of using an external keyboard, otherwise the experienced people here would not have jumped to conclusions.

Isn’t someone is up to something?

Anyone and everyone like someone is the reason why someone like me has to have activation.
