Can't drag edits (regions) with precision anymore

Ever since I graduated to GB '09 fropm '05 I notice that I can't move edited regions to the beginning of measures with time-precision. e.g. If I want to place a two measure beat from one track in front of a beat on another track I can't place the new beat to meet up precisely where the old one begins and it throws the time off.

Yes, thanks I figured this out not long after I posted the question, lol...

Can't Drag and Drop with a Double Tap using Single Finger in Lion?

I installed the Mac OS X Lion two days. But I can't drag and drop with a Double tap using Single Finger, which I used to do in Snow Leopard.
If I choose Three Finger Move, then Swap Between Pages goes back to "Scroll left or right with Two Fingers" that only works with Safari, but doesn't work with Chrome or Firefox.
I tried literally every setting in Trackpad and also checked if there was a override settings and there is no overrride setting.
Would be thankful, if you guys could suggest me what to do?
======================================
My Machine Configuration:
Macbook Pro 13" (mid 2010)
Intel Core 2 Duo 2.4GHz
4GB Ram
Nvidia Geforce 320m
Mac OS X Lion (Installe on a updated Snow Leopard 10.6.8)

Hey Serge many thanks for telling me how to do. now its working like previously
I just cheked the Dragging under Trackpad option and unchecked Three Finger Moves. now I can drag and drop with a double tap using single finger.
Thank you guys. You are the best

Editable region with ecommerce

Can client without dreamweaver update content in an editable region containing Paypal ecommerce buttons?
My client wants to be able to update region with seasonal item photo and add to cart button.


We need to update this empty region with content across 300+ pages, but the basic Find & Replace will not do the trick, as this is a locked region within the child page and therefore -- I believe -- is not 'findable'. Aside from manually updating each page with the tracking pixel (groan!), is there an Ace up anyone's sleeve to help me expedite this task?
Help me understand what you are trying to do, please. The region you show above and are wanting to populate (as I understand it) is not a locked region. It would be completely editable in both template and child pages. However, if what you want is to make changes to a NON-EDITABLE region, you could do that several ways:
1. Use a server-side include to carry the desired content into the non-editable region. The link to the include would be in the non-editable part of the template, but the include file is still editable.
2. Use a DW Library item in the exact same way.
3. Add the desired content in a PHP block at the top of the page, and then just echo it where desired.
The advantage of method 1 is that you edit one file and upload it, and all 300 pages are changed at the server level. The advantage of method 2 is that you edit one library file, and all pages will also be changed, but then you must upload all 300 pages subsequent to that change. The advantage of method 3 is that it, too, is simple both to implement and to Find/Replace when needed, but again, all changed pages need to be uploaded.

FIX for can't drag and drop to iTunes anymore

Just fixed this problem for my sister who updated iTunes to 11.5.1 and found drag and drop not working anymore:
Rightclick on the iTunes shortcut (or .exe in your Program Files).
Click Properties. Security and select your username in the list.
Click Edit to change the permissions and Allow full control.
Drag and drop will work again.

I logged in here for the first time in 4 years just to say THANK YOU! This problem happened after my update to iTunes 12.01. So puzzling! Your fix worked.
Much obliged.

You have the accessibility VoiceOver feature turned on.
Triple click the home button and try going to Settings>General>Accessibility and turn VoiceOver off. You may have to use three fingers to scroll the screen to get there. If problems see the following for how to turn off via iTunes:

Can't edit editable regions with Contribute

Have created some templates with Dreamweaver 8, left/right
columns are clearly marked editable, yet my contribute users aren't
able to edit those columns and the screen display is distorted
(have to scroll down to see center column). Any suggestions on what
I need to be looking for to correct?
example of left column not editing:
http://www.rochesterpubliclibrary.org:8080/kids/index.html
example of left and right not editing
http://www.rochesterpubliclibrary.org:8080/teens/index.html

I had someone help - my pages were looking for
css/columns.css as hidden at design time, but I was using a full
URL
http://ww....:8080. Once we added
that URL to Design Time Style Sheets (under CSS panel, right click
to get Design Time ) as file as HIDE at Design time, columns became
editable in Contribute. Let me know if that doesn't make sense and
I'll try to explain better.

Can't fade audio region with multiple takes

Audio track: I have some sections of a song with a single vocal take on the track (individual audio regions), and others with multiple takes. On the single takes, I can use the crossfade tool, no problem.
On the sections where there are multiple takes and a few edits, I cannot fade. I drag the fade tool at the front of this region and it does not fade. In fact, the highlight color is green as opposed to blue (when it works on individual, single-take regions).
How do I use the fade tool on an audio track where there are multiple takes?
(Please don't tell me I have to bounce this section of audio and re-import it...)
(There is nothing in the manual on this. I checked: pages 343-345 discuss fades in this regard but there is no mention of it not working for a multiple take audio region.)

You don't need to bounce the track, but you do need to collapse the takes into a single track. Do your comping until you have the track you want, then use the little menu button at the end of the track to fold everything into a single track (I forget the correct terminology, but it's pretty obvious when you open the menu), then fade to your heart's content.

Can't Drag from iTunes into Garageband anymore

After routine software update to iTunes 10 and Garageband 09 version 5.1, I can no longer drag files from iTunes into Garageband, whereas I always could before. Whats wrong? I'm using an iMac with a 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor with 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3 memory.

Somehow, when I tried to drag from the finder, I didn't always get the right song! But if I double clicked that song in the finder, the right song was played by iTunes, even though the wrong song showed up in Garage Band. Dragging to and from the desktop worked fine, and I just dragged it from the desktop to the trash after I worked on it in Garage Band for editing and "sharing" back into iTunes.

Can't drag motion files into Compressor anymore

I used to be able to drag Motion files into the batch window in Compressor, and now I can't. I've tried trashing preferences - no effect. It's frustrating because loss of this ability doesn't coincide with any update, so I'm not sure what it could be. Does anyone with more compressor experience than me have any ideas?

Can't open choice-menu with spacebar anymore

Installed Numbers 3.0.1 te replace Numbers 09.
Now I can't open the cell choice-menu with the spacebar anymore.
Is that very practical feature skipped or is the a new alternative to the mouseclick?

Thanks Badunit, sure I meant pop-up menu. Can this feature still
be added to this version or do I have to reverse to Numbers 09?

I can't access edited photos with iphoto

I am new to iphoto 08.
I have preferences set up to edit iphoto images with photoshop CS3. After editing a photo, I use the option save in same folder but iPhoto does not show the edited photo, just the unedited photos. I can see the location of the new photo using spotlight (the path indicates that the photo is in the same folder as the unedited photos in iPhoto) but am unable to see the photo in iPhoto.
Any ideas? Thanks, David

David:
Maybe this will help:
Using Photoshop (or Photoshop Elements) as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
3 - however, if you get the navigation window that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
NOTE: With Photoshop Elements 6 the Saving File preferences should be configured: "On First Save: Save Over Current File". Also I suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always.
If you want to use both iPhoto's editing mode and PS without having to go back and forth to the Preference pane, once you've selected PS as your editor of choice, reset the Preferences back to "Open in main window". That will let you either edit in iPhoto (double click on the thumbnail) or in PS (Control-click on the thumbnail and seledt "Edit in external editor" in the Contextual menu). This way you get the best of both worlds

TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

I can't drag any object with trackpad or mouse. Please Help

Since yesterday, like a bolt out of the blue, mouse and trackpad stop working properly, in the sense that I cannot drag any object in my desktop or in any application neither with the mouse, neither with the tackpad. Moreover, when I lunch Mercury I get a massage stating that some Java routine cannot be opened and Azureus refuse to start. My computer use last version of leopard and all the updates available, last java upgrade included. Everything else seems to work properly. Any idea of what colud be wrong and what can I do ti solve this irritating issue? Thanks.

I can't think where else to look for this gremlin...
How well backed up are you and do you have a clone of your system prior to the drag & drop problem? If you do, I'd erase your internal and copy over the good clone. Or, restore from a previous date from Time Machine.
If not, you ought to run off a SuperDuper clone now. (SD is free for cloning) Then, do an archive & install. After you have everything you need back, delete the volume with clone since it is corrupt and run a good clone from your trouble free system

Can I copy edits made with the comp function?

Suppose I record an instrument with 2 mics. I do 5 takes then use the comp function to easily edit one of the 2 recorded tracks. Is there a way to copy the comp edits to track 2 so that I have a congruent sound or must I change them all by hand?

if you close the folder you can copy without problem
if you need to copy only an edited part of the composit...
i suggest to Unpack the folder...
this action allow you to copy only 1 take at the time
Note: *UNDO works fine about unpacking folder... maybe*
Anyway save a safety copy of your song by rename is as song take2 or similar

Can't drag vector taken with Shape into illustrator...

For some reason I cannot drag into a document a vector I created using the new Adobe Shape app from the Creative Cloud panel window. When I double click the vector I get the pop up seen below. I watched a few official Adobe videos on this app and they simply drag and drop their created vectors into their artboards. Interestingly, I can't right click and select, "use in document." It then places it automatically in my document. Any ideas what's up? Thanks

I can't right click and select, "use in document."
