Where is the pointer tool?

I was trying (again) to put on a skin, but ended up with a gift box on my arm. (WHY is this so difficult? Why do you have to tp to a sandbox to wear something? Jeez. )

I tried Tools > Select Tool > Move, then Focus, etc
to get the box off my arm, but can't detach it any more. Gawd what a pain.

Now I can't get the old pointer back and cannot move by double-clicking on the floor (Emerald).

(Boy, movement controls in SL are so poorly designed and difficult to use.)

Instead of using the camera and your AV - go to your inventory. Type in "worn" (without the quotation marks). You will find the object that you are wearing and just right click on the name and choose "detach".

Thanks. But I had to quit and restart to get the normal pointer tool back. Is this the official way to do it LOL ?

No but this is the best way to see everything you have attached. A lot of attachments like huggers, dance chims, and AOs are invisible and some times I lose track of what is where on my avie. Using "worn" in search lets me know why /hug is acting goofy when I don't realize that I have 2 huggers attached.

You were in build mode. When you mouse over a window, the build cursor will change back to the regular cursor. Just close the build window (little X at the top right) to exit build mode. Also, you can hit escape a few times to close everything and get back to normal.
