That keyboard command works, but it screwed up several things.
Additionally, I now have lost my ability to scroll the screen up and down,
using the mouse!!!
Any ideas what I might have inadvertently done?
thanks, keith

I was looking at cheap wireless keyboards online. All the ones I saw like Logitech and Kensington only had Windows compatibility. Is that accurate? Do I need to find one that specifically says Mac compatible?
I have an old wired PC keyboard with an adapter now. The shortcut key is annoying but I can't afford a Mac wireless keyboard.
Can anyone suggest a cheap wireless keyboard that is Mac compatible?
Thank you,
Carrie

Late this afternoon, I sat down at my Mac and Opened my photoshop CS6, only
it wasn't CS6, but a big sign on the splash page said it was day 1 of a
trial of CS6 extended. There was also a notice of a special rate for the
cloud. I had never signed up for either, and I don't want either . I tried
closing out, but coming back in gave the same result.My workspace with the
2 monitors was there, as were all my filters etc, only it was the trial of
CS6 Extended .
I called adobe, and to make a long story short, the man told me what to do
to fix it. Since he knew right away what I was talking about, I can not
have been the only one who has called about this.
The fix is simple, go out of CS6extended, go back in, and when the splash
page is shown, click on license, instead of trial, and put the serial
number of your CS6 into it..and lo and behold the extended version
vanished and my own CS 6 reappeared.
To me , this was kinda scary that they could and did do this.

This is normal. Many third party software applications work this way. They allow you to try the app, sometimes a limited or crippled version, for a period of time, and eventually require you to buy a license to either continue using it or to open up the remaining features. If you moved to another computer or restored from a clone, it might ask for the registration number again.
So far, what you have described is normal.

When backing up with Time Machine does it copy a mirror image of everything on my internal and external hard drives?
If so if I had to reload from my Time Machine back up after a crash or on to a new machine, will all of my applications be included?
Mac Book Pro 10.8.2
