Use The Move Tool Anytime

 

When you’re using just about any of Photoshop’s tools, you can temporarily switch to the Move tool at any time by simply holding the Command key (PC: Control key). It’s temporary, and as soon as you release it, you’re back to the tool you started with.

Create A Composite Layer

If you have a multilayer composition and you
want to apply an effect to all the layers at once, don’t flatten the layers–use a composite layer instead. Hide the layers you want excluded, and press Shift-Command-Option-E (PC: Shift-Ctrl-Alt-E). A new layer will be created at the top containing a merged copy of all the visible layers.

Another option is to create a new layer at the top of the stack and make it active. Command-click (PC: Ctrl-click) each layer you want to include to make those layers active, as well. Press Option-Command-E (PC: Alt-Ctrl-E).
