Command/Ctrl + Spacebar zoom shortcut not working [2018]

For years I have used the command/ctrl + spacebar shortcut as a way to drag and zoom but after updating to PS 2019, that shortcut is not working. Does anyone know how to restore this function?

    That's a tough thing to  ask, but I'm glad that did it. Was it the "clean install" or a simple reinstall?


    I think it was either the hard reboot or re-install (not clean and just reinstalled CC desktop)

    I have been looking for a solution to this for ages and have tried everything and then by mistake today while trying again after every suggestion offered, I accidentally hit option/spacebar rather than command/spacebar and TA DA, it's working using option/spacebar! Hope this helps someone also!

    Bit late to the party but just randomly had this issue on my mac in illustrator and photoshop (Oct 2019). Tracked it down to Siri using the same shortcut keys, so basically turned off Siri - useless anyway.

    All recommended fixes are also not working for me either. This is a shame. It makes me hesitant to keep my software up to date. Is anyone having luck rolling back and using an older version? These are tools I use constantly and it's completely messing up my workflow.

      Ran into something similar on my MacBook Pro (with a pen tablet). I think it's a conflict between the tablet and Ink settings in MacOS. Try going to Preferences -> Ink, then turn off "Allow me to Ink in any application."

      Hey guys,

      A quicker way of fixing this issue is to reset the preferences when launching PS.

      Do this by:

      To restore preferences quickly using a keyboard shortcut: Press and hold Alt+Control+Shift (Windows) or Option+Command+Shift (Mac OS) as you startPhotoshop. You are prompted to delete the current settings. The new preferences files are created the next time you start Photoshop.

      This worked for me!

        Hi talmom,

        Ctrl+spacebar drag, does allow me to zoom in images in Photoshop CC 2019. I am Windows 10. You may try resetting Photoshop preferences back to defaults and let us know if that helps.

        To know more about resetting Photoshop preferences, please refer the following link: Preferences in Photoshop

        Regards,

        Mohit

        I too am having this problem on a Mac. Resetting preferences did not work.
