Hello,

I am having a very weird thing going on in Photoshop CS. Every time I turn on the type tool (horizontal) and try to use it, it won't type any letters, and instead when I strike the letter keys on my keyboard, it activates other tools based on their keyboard shortcut letters (such as L for lasso). I have tried resetting system defaults and still have this problem.

Another weird thing that happens is that when I try to type letters, the canvas turns pink, and the letters turn white (this might be connected to the keyboard shortcut for flood fill).

Anyone know why this happens and how to fix it???

ok as far as the pink screen is concerned you are in quick mask mode! (Q) to toggle quick mask off and on. after that you should be able to type.
