All of a sudden my photoshop and Illustrator are acting up. The artboards will slowly and continuously move to the left by themselves and I can drag them back to center but they just keep moving. If I open a new doc or try to resize anything and try to fill in specs, the numbers go crazy. If I hold alt key, everything starts zooming out.... All sorts of things. I've tried restarting PS while resetting presets. Worked for a while in PS but not at all in AI. I'm running CC 2017 on 10.11 OS...I know it's old, but it won't allow me to update. Is there anything I can do short of buying a whole new computer??

This is strange. Here are a few thoughts that you didn't mention trying:
Also: don't uninstall, thinking you can reinstall. CC2017 is no longer available for download.

Wow! The safe mode seems to have fixed it for now!!!
For others' reference...
No it wasn't a stuck keyboard. The artboards would move around whenever the cursor was within the PS/AI windows. It would stop moving if I made a command like save or close.
The numbers thing is not a units issue. For example, if I opened a new doc or wanted to resize something, the text box would auto-highlight and start changing the numbers highlighted all on it's own and I couldn't get in there to type.
I rebooted several times, even resetting the preferences.
On startup I have only 2 things, plus our server. However, Spotify and TeamViewer always startup at Login even though I've tried to change that.
Thanks for the help!!!!!

You're welcome, @Dori5CC4
I was throwing out all the possibilities I could think of, and I'm glad one of them worked for you !
