Hi

I have Photoshop CS and I cannot get my shortcut keys to work!! They work in other programmes but not Photoshop.

If I press Ctrl + Z for undo nothing happens but in keyboard shortcuts preferences it is listed as Ctrl + Z?

I have to keep using the edit menu or history pallet to remove or undo.

Anybody had similar problems. My regional settings are correct for UK.

I am running Windows XP Pro SP2 on a PC

Cheers Dale

I believe that some cracked copies of PhotoShop have problems with shortcut keys. If you are using an illegal copy, buy a working copy. If you do have a legit copy; I have found that sometimes other applications grab keys while PS is running. For example, if you have the Windows chat client "Trillian" installed, you cannot use CTRL+ALT+i to inverse a selection as Trillian detects this and takes the focus. Close any other open programs and see if you are able to use the shortcuts.
