Move Tool
You use the Move tool
to move "smaller things" around a photograph.
Smaller things includes parts of a photograph and text.
You don't use the Move tool to move the entire image of the photograph,
except when you're moving a photograph into the layers palette of
another photograph.
If you haven't already done so, go to
Move a Layer.
You also use the Move tool when you're moving selection borders,
and selections.
If you haven't already done so,
Moving Selections.
