Use the Direct Select tool, the white arrow, and shift-click to select multiple anchor points. These will move together, leaving the unselected anchor points.

 

The Path Select tool, the black arrow, will select the whole path.

Could you please post screenshots with the pertinent Panels (Toolbar, Layers, Paths, Options Bar, …) visible? 

 

With the Pen Tool selected one can spring-load the Direct Selection Tool by holding the cmd-key pressed, then by additionally pressing the shift-key one can select the pathpoints consecuitively.
