I have the latest Photoshop version (23.3.1) installed on my Macbook pro (16 tum, 2019. OS Catalina) and I can't use the handtool via space bar anymore. I have tried to reset the settings and even reinstalled Photoshop but nothing seems to work. So irritating... I can shoose the Handtool by clicking the Hand or using H on the keyboard. I need help...

Hi there,

 

Sorry about the trouble with Photoshop. We're here to help.

 Are you using any other application along with Photoshop? Do you have any VPN or firewall connected? Did you try resetting the tools of Photoshop? Since when are you seeing this issue?

What is most likely happening is that some other program uses the spacebar as a shortcut. Try rebooting your computer and only opening Photoshop and see if the shortcut now works. Then you can try launching other programs until you find out which one is causing the conflict. 

 

We're here to help; let us know if this works.

 

Regards,

Ranjisha

Also, be sure Photoshop has Full Disk access under Apple Preferences > Security & Privacy

Restart your Mac to be sure any changes take.

      Thanks for the quick answer. It was a corporation installed secure software wich used spacebar for something. I can't use tha spacebar when in that security program but when I closed it I could use the handtool in Phontoshop again. 

      Thanks a million! 🙂
