Hi,
I recently installed PS CS2 (bought via Amazon) and it seems many keys do not work properly and are misintepreted by PS.

For example –
F1 – F2 stands for p,q,r,s,t…z,}
Delete for ","

Also Escape and arrows do not work as they should (maybe also some other) – this is most evident while editing a text, then when I press Esc, Del or F# then it’s just inserting symbols instead of cancelling, deleting, or nothing (in case of F#)

Shift,Alt,Ctrl works fine

In the same time I installed PS I also changed my keyboard, however when I tried the previous one it was the same and also I didn’t notice any other problem anywhere else with it, so it really should be PS.

I have Windows XP SP3 czech version

Thank you very much

Ouch…

Did you also buy it recently – say, post April/May 2007?

Shrink-wrapped and Made in Singapore?

to Freeagent and John Joslin:
I bought it recently, arrived circa a week ago. There’s written that it’s made in US…and I thought that time Amazon should be more reliable than eBay, reseller was

(Price was not that surprising as now CS2 is several years old software)

Can I somehow verify that I don’t have a pirated version and that I bought real and legal copy of CS2 ? The support section of Adobe web is a real labyrinth… I wouldn’t be happy if I had 🙁

Also this is the only issue I’ve encountered, everythink else works fine

Actually yes, there’s made in singapour… damn 🙁
Does that automatically mean it’s pirated?
Will try to contact them then…

If it’s any consolation you’re not the first…at least you didn’t pay the full price.

Thank you, I know… it has to seem almost funny, that people stil falls for this… it’s just that prices of soft in our country is pretty high…at least I earned experience, when not PS…

True. But I don’t mind that so much…it’s more that they are giving it away virtually for free in the U.S… 😉
