Photoshop Question about selecting all on one Layer

    Say I have a Layer that has some objects, with transparent background and I want to select everything that's painted on that Layer and nothing else.

    Control+A to Select All is not the answer as that would select the entire "Canvas" and that's not what I want.

    Infact, imagine you have the silhouette of a tree, stamped onto the middle of the Canvas and it includes all manner of little transparent sky holes through the tree.

    Now I want to make a selection of just the tree, minus all those sky holes.

    I want a marquee selection of the tree so that I can perform additional actions on just that selection.

    I saw a video where the guy was on an Mac and he had a different Layer as active. He held the 'command' key down and selected the tree layer and bang, he had a marquee selection of just the tree.

    But i'm on a pc so don't have a command key.
