I am new to photoshop and am having the following problem

When I add a shape to am image tht I am creating I can use the mouse to position it but this does not give me the accuracy that I need
Is it posible to move shapes around using the keyboard and how can you adjust the increments so that I can control how much the image moves with each press of a key
 
yes you can move things around with the keyboard.

You have to first click on the layer you want to move, then click on the arrow tool, then use the arrow keys on the keyboard, to move your picture one pixel at a time in any direction.(if you hold an arrow key down it moves faster)

Hope this is what you're looking for [cheers]
