Photoshop Creative

I'm trying to paste several pictures to a blank document to print them all together and save paper. But when I try to move one of the images to the blank document it tells me it can't be done for the layer is locked.
I have been looking into all my books but can't find how to unlock the layer. I had click and right click on the lock icon but nothing happen.

Don,

It should be on the Layers panel - click on the "locked layer" and you should be able to see what is locked. Just click on the tab and it will release the lock.

Here:



It is the area just below the Blend Modes drop down.

Double-click on the lock symbol, then click OK on the box that opens.

Thank you guy's what i did was this:
I went to the Layers menu, selected New, Layer from Background and problem solved.

Why is that when you want to remember some thing you do often you just can't remember for no money in the world? Old age is catching up with me I guess

Glad you got it solved!

Don, NOT old age, merely short-term overload.

A short cut is to doubleclick on the background layer to turn it into a regular unlocked layer.

Linda,

That works for a background layer, but for other layers (copies, adjustment layers, whatever) that are locked, you have to follow my post, which is based on CS3.

Hmn, I just tested it out and I can drag drop a layer (locked or not) of both flavours and no problem. So, I don't understand why Don was having an issue.

I think Don was just trying to unlock the background layer.
