All of a sudden, I can no longer add any plugins to any channel strips? And when I click on an existing plugin to edit, it disappears off the channel strip?

I am running Logic express 9 on a 2008 Macbook, (non pro). Anyhow, logic has always seemed to work great for me. However, last week I opened up one of many existing projects, (I'm in sample editor). When I went to add a new plugin to one of the channel strips it would not allow me to. Also, if I click on any plugin that already exists on the channel strip it dissapears? The strange thing that also happens weather I click to add a new plugin or click on an already existing plugin, is both the "repeat section" and "crop", buttons from the above menu (in sample editor), the actual buttons become a faded image,(as far as the actual font and images of the buttons). As soon as I am done clicking to add a plugin on the channel strip, both buttons from the menu go back to looking normal like all of the other choices from that menu? I really don't get it? All I want to do is to be able to add plugins as well as edit or change plugins again. Any thoughts as to why I can no longer add any new plugins to any channel strips? And why any existing plugins disappear from the channel strip when I click on it? Why the "repeat section", and "Crop", buttons from the menu above fade in and out when I try clicking on the channel strip is very strange? I don't mind that I just want to be able to add or edit plugins again. I did do some document cleaning up last week as my memory was getting low. I then emptied out my trash bin. I'm hoping I didn't accidentally delete some kind of Logic component? Why can't I add or edit plugins anymore? Anyone ever run across this?
Thanks,
Mike.

Mike,
Are any of your other applications going wonky, or is it just Logic?
I'm afraid I've never heard of this particular problem before, but if it were happening to me the first thing I would do is delete my "com.apple.logic.express.plist" file in Library>Preferences, then repair permissions in Disc Utility, and finally restart my computer. Then I would launch Logic and see if the problem has been corrected. It's amazing how much these two steps can accomplish.
If that doesn't resolve the issue I would launch Logic and go to Preferences>Audio Units Manager to see if all my plug-ins are properly validated.

All of a sudden I can no longer toggle or clip angles in multiclip sequence

Hi,
I've got a project with a number of sequences, videos, angles, etc and all of a sudden I can no longer toggle between angles in the sequence timeline. It was working last night and then stopped and it's still unresponsive. Every time I click to switch an angle or cut to an angle I get the alert beep.
I am not out of disk space and haven't changed any settings as far as I am aware of.
Thanks

Not sure what the deal is...have you added any new software or upgraded/updated anything since this started?
Have you tried opening an autosave version, to see if it works there?
Trashed prefs, run disk utility?
I'm not sure I've ever heard an 'alert beep', so would wonder if the drive is failing.
Can you be a little more explicit about exactly how it 'stopped working'...were you right in the middle of working on it, or had you stepped away for a bit?
Have you tried shutting down, then rebooting after 15-20 minutes?

Also, Firefox crashes frequently. Is there a fix for this also?

Uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox 3.6 that prevents new tabs from being opened.
There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
* Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
* Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons
For the second issue, the [[Firefox crashes]] support article may help.

After 3 years of happily using iTunes store all of a sudden I can no longer connect. There is no error message, the attempted connection just hangs. Why?

I ran the iTunes diagnostic and got a positive result - I am, apparently, in contact with the Store. But I still cannot connect. I have carried out all ther suggested operations ... and still cannot connect! The diagnostics gave me the following report:

Weyline 188,
I'm not sure what you mean by "no longer get Safari." Look in the Applications folder to see if Safari is there if it is then you have Safari. If you click on Safari it will open (assuming it's not open already) and it will go to the page you set as your home page which you may have set as Google. From there you can navigate where you want.
If you are having other troubles please write a more descriptive post so you are drawing a picture for us. Remember we can't see what you can.

Suddenly I can no longer add events to my calendar osuddr add reminders. The symbol is brayed out and won't allow me to add anything???

Suddenly I can no longer add events to my calendar or new reminders. The + is grayed out and won't allow any new additions???

I had the the same problem albeit with an m4v (same hardware and OS rev too!, iTunes 10.6.3). I was able to add the movie to a new library per Limnos' suggestion here, indicating that iTunes wasn't totally busted. However, I was also able to see the movie in the Recently Added smart playlist (another hat tip to Limnos), although it still did not appear in the Movies section of my iTunes library. (It was also in the iTunes Library.xml file.)
So I called AppleCare, and they directed me to move the file from the external drive where it was living, into the /Users/<Your Name Here>/Movies directory, and to "Add to Library" (Command-O) from that location. Sure enough (and much to my surprise), it showed up immediately (duplicated, actually) in the Movies section of my iTunes library. Subsequent additions to my Library have not misbehaved similiarly.

All of a sudden I can no longer compile??

I'm seeing the strangest thing. When I try to compile with javac, I now get tons of debug output that looks like this:
count = 0, total = 110
count = 0, total = 37
count = 0, total = 149
count = 0, total = 73
count = 0, total = 8
count = 0, total = 213
count = 0, total = 43
Additionally, javac no longer seems able to resolve symbols when I specify a a jar file in the classpath. (Seems to work OK if I extract the classess from the jar file). This started appearing out of the blue (was compiling fine yesterday).
So basically, I can no longer compile. Anyone have any idea what's going on? I'm using 2sdk1.4.0 on windows 2000.
It's probably coincidence, but I installed Forte yesterday. I doubt it has any bearing on what I'm seeing, but its the only thing I can think of that changed in my build/system environment.

In my experience, these "count = 0, total = <some-number>" messages are always due to corrupt jar files. Finding out exactly which jar files are corrupt is not that difficult. Take a look at your classpath, and try removing jars one by one until you no longer get the error messages. Then try adding them back and see which jar it is that causes the problem. Remember though that there may be more than one jar that is corrupted on your system.
Next, open up a copy Winzip, and try dragging the jar file into it. If the jar file is indeed corrupt, winzip will bomb out with some nasty error message. That's how you know for sure.
One final trick - try compiling some simple "Hello World" java program that contains no import statements (and doesn't use any java packages besides the obvious java.lang).
Try building that program with your original classpath (containing the corrupt jar files), and count how many "count = 0, total = ..." messages you are getting. That tells you exactly how many jar files are corrupt in your classpath.
Hope this helps.
Amr Shalaby.

All of a sudden I can no longer drag/drop music onto my iPhone... What happened? :(

So at some point in the recent past itunes stopped letting me drag music to my iphone.. I don't want to bother syncing my whole library because I have too much music. Why is it making things so difficult all of a sudden? This is REALLY ******* me off.

roaminggnome is absolutely correct. A easier way of doing this is to click the "Music" tab when the device is connected to iTunes. Within this window, you will be able to select "Sync Music" and then below that select "Selected playlists, artists, albums, and genres." Following this, you will be able to pick and choose which music you want on the device.
Hope this helps.

All of a sudden I can no longer print any web pages. I have tried the solutions offered on the web site to no avail. I have also tried reinstalling it. If i can't fix this I'll have to use IE instead, but that is not what I want. What do i do now?

When I click on the print icon or file-print, nothing happens at all.

Is your printer selected? 
Is '''Print to File''' selected, where the web page is being printed to a file and not being sent to your printer?
