Hi-de-ho
PS 7 allowed me to do many things by pressing the control (Ctrl) key and other keys. Copy a selection = Ctrl+c, paste the selection= Ctrl+v. CS doesn’t seem to have this native windows functionality enabled. Can some kind sole point me in the right direction please?

Contact Adobe Technical Support. For some odd reason your system believes that you are using a stolen, beta version of the software which had this functionality disabled, or a poorly cracked pirate copy. Since you certainly wouldn’t be foolish enough post this question here unless your copy is legitimate you must have a technical problem. Adobe can fix you right up … hi-de-ho!

Oh – for fucks sake – grow up and stop accusing everybody before you know the facts – Some cheaper keyboards – esp. Logitec ones with older drivers show this symptom as well. Maybe he has got a pirate copy, but since that crack was replaced shortly after it was released, what are the chances ???????? Don’t you EVER read these groups apart from your own posts???

I accused nobody, and I certainly have never accused "everybody" as you claim. I gave him correct advice — call tech support. As for "growing up," well, let’s just say that your well reasoned, logical and polite response (as well as your vocabulary) speaks volumes in that department.

My exact thoughts. The theft isn’t half so annoying as the stupidity that seems to go hand-in-hand with it. It’s not that ethical people are all geniuses and all thieves are retarded, but there are enough to add credence to my maxim:

"It’s not the theft, it’s the stupidity".

Given that people like "Phil" like to post from anonymizers, maybe I should change that last part to "cowardly stupidity".

Thank you Tom,
I do indeed have a beta version installed on this PC. I don’t normally use PCs in the firm I’m at. It would seem that the company’s system administrator installed it. Take heart and rest easy in your quest for total and complete submission from all PS users… The boxed copy (several of them actually) was in the Sys. Admin’s cupboard, never been installed! He has installed a copy for me today and (thankfully) the problem is not evident now. Much better photograph handling than PS 6.0, too.

One of the problems legitimate Photographers have when confused about features in Photoshop is the unbelievable attitude of people like yourself who for some reason unknown to me is prepared to judge others by what they themselves are capable of. Anyone who presumes a total stranger has stolen something just because they ask for help using it, truly is a very sick individual. But hey… It takes all kinds to fill a world. If anyone ever offers you advise on how to correct your personality problems… Take it! MR

Where it came from and who installed it is unknown to me. I started work in a new job last Monday and need to edit my photographs.

The PC allocated to me had a working version 6 on it and this CS which doesn’t have full functionality. Once "Tom" pointed out it could be a pirated copy or a beta version, I reported this to my supervisor, he went to the sysadmin and now there is a fresh version installed which has the functionality missing from the previous one.

Before I believe a stranger, I’ll believe my boss. Think what you will. You are as bad as the other poster for up front, believing the worst of a stranger. The Internet has introduced me to some real oddballs but it also taught me about anarchy and the treacherous mindset of Internet adicts who really ought to get a life.

I shoot raw and instead of converting pics to TIFF before editing, CS offered me direct access to my work otherwise I’d happily keep using version
6. When I asked in this group for help, some of you claim I pirated the
software. Hell, you don’t even know me yet you are willing to defame me.

I guess it never occurred to such evil minds as yours and Tom’s that even if it was a pirated copy, once discovered a licensed version would be purchased. As it turned out, there were several un-opened, un-installed packs of PS CS in the company. The advise I gave to Tom also applies to you. I’ll add: Get a life to it.

Thou protesteth too much. Re–read my post. I offered
straightforward advice and made no accusations whatsoever. I was willing to believe that you had a technical problem and offered the appropriate advice — "contact technical support." I even said that you must have a legitimate copy or you wouldn’t be posting in this group (implication: you _believed_ you had a legitimate copy.)

Now that you have gone so far overboard protesting non-existent accusations I have to wonder what makes you so insecure? Something to hide?

Reread your post, it would appear from the general tone, the childish end statement and the fact you give no alternative to piracy, that you where indeed accusing someone of this. The fact that you gave the standard correct response, is no excuse – You could have answered, "Contact Adobe" and not mentioned piracy at all. If you’re a good boy, mommy might buy you a policemans play outfit for christmas, as this is what you clearly want to be. Tom is now plonked

Looks like "Tom" might have been right – the CS installation wasn’t standard. Perhaps it was hacked. Why didn’t you go to your boss to begin with before pestering the rest of us?

I have a question for all.
What is it about a few posters here who think the topics cannot ask for help?
Those same few posters are attempting to hi-jack the news group for their own perverse reasons.
Where ever do these people get the idea they are so expert as to be able to charge for their (often questionable) advise?
Calling Adobe for help in Australia is like going to the zoo in search of wildlife subjects. I can post to this group in my meal breaks. I’ll be blown over by a frog sneeze before I’ll spend that time hanging on a phone waiting my turn for help.

I’ll give "Tom" his dues and say he is the only replier to actually offer any help at all. I can overlook his presumption of guilt attitude. What I really do have trouble with is the others who without having any knowledge of a person or their ethics, have the same ‘presumption of guilt’ attitude as a blanket over their minds. I think I’ll go buy a book on Photoshop rather than ask for help from this highly bigoted bunch of "experts".

In case anyone is interested…
Further investigation about the PS CS installation in question turned up that it was indeed a pirate copy – or it had a pirate serial number at least! Of course no one here is willing to admit ‘they’ installed it!

Anyway, during the investigation our compliance auditors put up the question (after reading the replies in this group) "how come these self rightious people challenging your ethics know so much about how to obtain and alter Photoshop if they themselves have not actually done it?"

So there’s an interesting thought, isn’t it? I wouldn’t have a clue how to obtain one of these copies. We pay 19 cents per megabyte for our Data so downloading one would send alerts to our security people. And then how do you get the information to alter the program? Or is it altered when you get it? What about viruses, too?

My own personal conclusion is that anyone making a living from using a program like Photoshop wouldn’t have the time to discover the underground tunnels of the Internet unless they actually made their living from that underground. So to all you people who so willingly defamed me: Get a life! If someone has to ask about a broken feature, they are hardly equipped to have stolen the application in the first place.

You asked a question (that’s been asked several times before) and you got the correct answer. You should thank Tom and get over your hurt feelings and get on with your life.

Those same few posters are attempting to hi-jack the news group for their own perverse reasons.

Who is hi-jacking the newsgroup? This is ridiculous.

Where ever do these people get the idea they are so expert as to be able to charge for their (often questionable) advise?

As they used to say in Soviet Russia, "We pretend to work and they pretend to pay us". Did you get an invoice? If not don’t worry about it.

Calling Adobe for help in Australia is like going to the zoo in search of wildlife subjects.

Especially once they figure out you have a pirated version of Photoshop.

I’ll give "Tom" his dues and say he is the only replier to actually offer any help at all.

He told you the truth. How many other people need to tell you the same thing before you get the picture?

What I
really do have trouble with is the others who without having any knowledge of a person or their ethics, have the same ‘presumption of guilt’ attitude

But you DID have a stolen copy of Photoshop, right? So get off your high horse. You WERE guilty as charged.

Are the auditor idiots or are you just making this up? They should know what ‘common knowledge’ means. We know because we are informed. We care about PS.

So there’s an interesting thought, isn’t it?

No, not at all interesting. The question they should ask you, the "professional" who got the pirated software, is "Why don’t YOU know what you are doing?" And pray tell how did you manage to get what you consider a legitimate copy without going through Activation?

So Tom was right and you were guilty of using pirate software, as charged. You should apologize to him.

Anyway, during the investigation our compliance auditors put up the question (after reading the replies in this group) "how come these self rightious people challenging your ethics know so much about how to obtain and alter Photoshop if they themselves have not actually done it?"

Because when CS came out a dozen or so clueless turkeys posted the same thing you did … ‘duh dude, why don’t my keyboard shortcuts work no more? doh’ … if you had checked you’d have seen a lot of similar posts.

You are just the latest in a long line of turkeys to ask the same dumb question. Most of us have seen the reply several times by now. It’s pretty stupid to think the only way we’d know is to do it ourselves.

My own personal conclusion is that anyone making a living from using a program like Photoshop wouldn’t have the time to discover the underground tunnels of the Internet unless they actually made their living from that underground.

Or unless they had been reading the newsgroup for a couple of weeks and saw the same stupid question get answered a dozen times already.

Did you bother to read my earlier posts or just butting in for entertainment?

That was a post.
After then a boxed copy was installed and the problem fixed. What exactly is your problem jjs?

Apology accepted Milo. I hardly expected this to be such an entertaining thread.

Genuine advice here: Stick around and read and learn. Don’t post until you’re certain you’re not repeating a frequently asked question (FAQ) as you did. If you read regularly you’ll find in unnecessary to ask repeated questions. Also, become acquainted with the various personalities of the posters here and learn to live with it. Don’t feed the trolls. Learn who provides solid answers. If your internet experience is one month then you have a lot to learn.

You walked into the lion’s den wearing a pork chop suit!

Good luck.
