I am trying to use the crop tool but it appears to be missing from the toolbar on the left.  I have Photoshop CS6 and I simply can't work out how to find the tool.  Can someone help me out please?

    Correct answer Trevor.Dennis

    Is it hidden behind the Slice tool?   Any tools with a little triangle in the bottom right corner, have move tools behind them.

    You could use the keyboard short cut 'c', but if the Crop tool is hidden, keep pressing Shift c until you see it.

    A friend just pointed me here after I mentioned that I had somehow lost the Crop icon in my Photoshop Elements toolbar, and I'm delighted to say that Shift-c did the trick! Thank you very, very much. (I could get to it from the menu at the top of the Photoshop Elements screen, but having it in the toolbar is so much easier.)

    What happens when you press the keyboard shortcut (C)?

    Then cycle through the "c" tools with Shift +C

    Can you post a screenshot of the Toolbar?

    This has now worked a treat.  It was hidden behind the slice tool and then the shift+c toggled straight through to it.  Many thanks for this feedback, a big help.
