Hello, i've noticed that since the last CC 2017 update, the hand grab tool with the space bar is not working anymore for indesign, illustrator and photoshop when the mac "notes" app is running.

system : mac os Sierra last update

app : adobe CC 2017 last update

compute : imac 27" late 2013

Hi Mary,

You might be using illustrator while Safari is still on. Try closing Safari and see if the problem disappears then open Safari once again.

I have the same problem.  Yes, closing Safari eliminates the problem but sometimes while learning more about photoshop, I have safari open to watch tutorials and I follow the tutorials.  Opening and closing safari is a real pain.  Also, you should be able to hold the cmd key and space bar at the same time to zoom in and out but can't.

Replying to my own post. I THINK I FOUND AN ANSWER!  In photoshop 2108 on iMac, go to edit/purge/clipboard.  Hand tool should now work for you in PS, at least it did for me.
