THIS PROBLEM HAS JUST RECENTLY OCCURRED.

WHEN TRYING TO MOVE POSITION OF EITHER TEXT OR PICTURES WITHIN A DOCUMENT I AM WORKING ON IT JUMPS FROM THE CORRECT LAYER TO THE BACKGROUND LAYER.

I MANUALLY HAVE TO HIT THE ARROW KEY TO MOVE THE POSITION.

HAS SOME DEFECT OCCURRED IN MY SOFTWARE – HOW DO I CORRECT IT?

First, turn off CAPS LOCK.

Then uncheck "auto select" in the move tool options bar.

You might also want to read the manual section on that to learn what it does.

Thank you so much Chris.
Dah…I’ve only been using photoshop for 6 years or so. I just immediately assumed somehow the software had some error.
