Click (right click) on the tool bar and enable the two selections. If you can not click the top tool bar click (right click) the bottom one and make sure they are enabled.

Or, you've entered Scale mode and you need to exit it using Host key+C. The message dialogue should have informed you, but then again, most just click it away without reading it.
