    ALT/ OPITON + R = ® (rights reserved)

    ALT/ OPITON + G = © (copyrite symbol)

    That's for MacOS. If you have Windows, follow the suggestions above for that platform.

    That doesn't work on my PC. I am using PS CS6 and holding down the Alt button and typing 0169 doesn't do anything...am I missing something?

    Yes.  Your Numeric Lock key needs to be engaged on your numeric keypad.

    Otherwise you're not typing numbers.  You're using the directional keys . 

    If you use a laptop without a numeric keypad,  you still need to engage the Numeric Lock button.  to access the numerals.  See screenshot.

    I am on a Mac running 10.11.6 - El Capitan. My numbers are across the top of my letters. Is there another way to find the copywriter mark? It used to be so simple!!!

      I know this a little old, but for anyone who comes across this I found that "ALT +G" on my imac creates a copyright sign in a text layer.

            It should work but make sure you use the numeric keypad.

            I'm working on a laptop and have no mumeric keypad.  Does Alt+0169 only work via keypad?

              I usually just find it somewhere on a web page and copy/paste it.
