Can't Change Song Start in Logic

Hello,
I tried to insert an audio file into Logic and it wouldn't let me place it at 1 1 1 1 for some reason, and it pushed my song's start location to -3 1 1 1. I tried to drag that slider back to 0 1 1 1 (where I want it), but it won't budge. I can move the song start box backward (further into the negatives), but not forward (towards 0 1 1 1 ), which is really annoying.
Can anybody help me?
Thanks,
Connor
P.S. There are no regions or any data until 1 1 1 1.

I have had this happen on the odd occasion and cant really tell why.. one thing to do is open the Audio region in the Sample Editor and check where the anchors are. Sometimes a region gets virtually edited and you think it is a certain size but in fact it is longer.
There is a great command in the Audio Window called "optimize file" which basically chops off and rationalises the original audio to fit what ever virtual edit you made... this may or may not affect your particular situation.
By way of anecdote, it is really important to optimise all the files when you are going to export them via OMF for a pro tools session, say for mixing. Sometimes you think you have all your audio files neatly lined up at bar in the Arrange window correct and present for inspection, only to find that when you export them, none of the files are in time because their real length is different. ( You can check this in the Sample Edit window where the anchors of the regions indicating their real length are easy to see)

Always want to keep the boot drive with more free space than may seem necessary for performance and to function at its best, 30-40% free or even 50% is not excessive.
Ideal is to separate your system from your data.
You should always have bootable backup / clone of your system
Don't use a green drive for system or data though.
When you are done cloning system and/or data, remove the old original and keep as backup.
Then move the system drive to #1 - no matter what you want to reset the default boot volume to where the system is.

By staying with 10.5.8 you are not going to receive security updates, might want to consider 10.6.8.

How do you change song start quickly without dragging the little square?

I have a song starting at bar 300 and I want to move the start to bar 1. How can you do this quickly without haveing to move the square box. The box is very slow and time consumeing with time start.
Thanks

create a keyboard shortcut. Hit option k, which brings up the key commands window.
In the spotlight upper right hand corner type "go to position."
A menu will come up which displays the all the go. The one in particular has black bullet which says "go to position" Click on that one.
Now to the right of that menu you'll see several radial buttons. Press the one which says, "learn by key label".
Now assign a key of you own. I used the comma which looks like , that. If you have nothing assigned to the comma it will make that go to position the , (comma) key command, which is only accessed by a key command. (thats what those black bullets mean in front of the huge menu).
close the key commands and press the comma key. A new window will show up called the "Go to Postion". Type in the bar or the smpte and it will automatically go to that postion. Press space bar which is the global command for play.
you'll be at bar 1 or 300 instantly! create key commands of your own with those above techniques especially when things get repetitive.

Can't change timecode start time

Hi,
I'm trying to change the timecode generator start time from 00:00:00:00 to 01:00:00:00. but the field can't be entered in the inspector.
Please help.

I also need to change the start timecode. (Compressor 3.0.2)
I assume you are talking about the actual timecode and not the timecode filter that burns it visibly into the video.
A similar function is available in DVDSP if you let it do the encoding for a DVD, but not Compressor.
For those who may ask why it is needed, my closed captioning starts at 00:00:00:00, but my video timecode is at 00:59:59:00 for some reason. The captioning needs the numbers to match. DVDSP will adjust starting timecode for you, so I can make them match up, but I'm trying to make a m4v for podcasting in Compressor. ITunes and Quicktime now support Closed Captioning, but it has to be encoded in Compressor.
If anyone finds a simple solution in Compressor, please post. I may have missed the setting somewhere.

Can't change song order in playlists

Several weeks ago iTunes stopped letting me change the order of songs in playlists. When I try to drag and drop them to change up the order the track just snaps back into place.
I've gone over my settings several times trying to see if there's anything that got changed that might be causing this but nothing seems out of the ordinary.
Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this?

Make sure neither Shuffle or Repeat are switched on in the playlist, that can prevent you reordering tracks. You'll find the commands for these in the Controls menu or the two central buttons below the Source list. Also of course make sure you click on the number column (extreme left) of your play list to highlight it.

Can't change song options a and then disappears from library

I am importing audio books into my iMac (Leopard). I just updated to iTunes 8. When I import a cd, I go into info to change some of the options like from music to audiobook, compilation>no, remember position>yes, etc. When I do that, as it is "changing" all of the files, it's deleting them at the same time (just from the library, not the computer). I can't ad them back in. It acts like it's adding them, but nothing appears. The only way to get them back is to delete the library and add everything in the library folder back. Any suggestions?

in Maine

I bought my daughter a MacBook Pro when she went away to college, and I then transfered my music collection from my computer into her iMac (which she no longer uses, so I do). Like xLegend above, I cannot change the info on the songs on the iMac.
The collection consists of songs I bought at the iTMS to a small degree, and songs I have ripped from my CD collection to a larger degree. There are also a number of songs that I have composed myself using Pro Tools and GarageBand, and I cannot change the info even on those...
Does anyone have an idea why this is, and how I can reclaim the ability to change information on the songs in my collection? Thank you for your help.

Can't change songs on new ipod in iTunes

I just went from a first gen iPod to a 5th gen, and I notice that I used to be able to edit the pod's playlist in itunes. Now, when I try to go directly to the new ipod's playlist, everything's greyed out. It's there, but greyed out. What's this all about? I want to have special playlists on my iPod. Thanks!

"when I try to go directly to the new ipod's playlist, everything's greyed out. It's there, but greyed out"
Grey text when you look at the content and a lock symbol at the bottom of the screen just indicates that the iPod is set to update automatically (sync). If you want to access the iPod directly, delete songs from the iPod, drag songs from iTunes etc. you need to change the update setting to "manually manage songs and videos. If you want to manage it manually then connect your iPod and click on the iPod icon in the iTunes source list to bring up the preference tabs in the main pane. In the Summary tab check the box "manually manage music and videos" and click Apply:
Managing content manually on iPod
iPod 101: Fill 'er Up
Something to remember about using an iPod in manual mode is that the "Do Not Disconnect" message will remain on the display until you physically eject the device. In that case use the Safely Remove Hardware icon in the Windows system tray on the desktop and check this link for alternative methods:: Safely Disconnect IPod

Can't Change Song Info

For most of my songs, I can edit the title, artist, etc. But for some, I can't. Why does it do this and how can I fix it?

If that doesn't solve your problem, i've had luck right clicking the song chose convert song to mpeg. It will make a copy that can be renamed. delete the old one when done.
