Nothing is locked and i'm still unable to resize my objects with the selection tool. I can only use transform/scale, pls help me, I want the short way back!!

And yes I can select it, I can move it, I can transform it threw the transform pannel but I can't resize it with the selection tool as usual and it's really frustrating.

Can you attach a screenshot of a selected object? Are you sure that you're using the move tool? (the black arrow accessed by hitting "v") Is this happening to one object only or everything that you create? In a new document?

You'll have to bear with the rudimentary questions for such a fundamental issue.
