Can't record in garageband, and no region is being made

I've tried restart Garageband, reinstalling Garageband, but no matter what I do, record seems completely broken and no region is showing up (the region that shows the audio levels and is generally color coded).
I don't seem to have any .plist preferences for Garageband in the Library directory either, so I can't delete that.
I have double and triple checked my audio input preferences. I've tried changing from my mic to my laptop mic to auto and back again.
No luck.
Help??
EDIT: If I select the built-in microphone of my macbook air I get the message "No input device selected," but I can record in Audacity so it's definitely not a hardware problem...

What kind of instrument are yo trying to record? And what kind of track have you selected for recording? Are you using GarageBand '11 or the newest version GarageBand 10.0?
I have double and triple checked my audio input preferences. I've tried changing from my mic to my laptop mic to auto and back again.
Which places have you checked?
GarageBand > Preferences > Audio?
Is the "record enable" button on for the track? Do you see the any input signal in the volume slider area?
Did you check the strings in the Audio Midi Setup Utility?

How can I record with GarageBand 1.3 in the background using other app?

How can I record with GarageBand 1.3 in the background using other app?
I use iPad 2 with iOS 6 and GarageBand v1.3.
I'd like to play an other app like Sunrizer synth while the GarageBand is recording in the background in a track.
By now I can do it only using the build-in mic of iPad, but this is not the point.
Can I record other apps in a GarageBand track?
Thanks a lot for your time.

I suspect you are probably correct about the reasoning, although there are already a myriad of ways to do that.
Don't get me wrong - I never said I like this. But it is consistent with other Apple applications, that are similar restrictive; you cannot take a screenshot, when dvd-player is running for example.
That are the moments, when I am glad that MacOS X is a unix system under the hood

how can I record a guitar and my voice (only voice with mic) at the same time ? I have one interface with Input 1 mic, Input 2 guitar, everything is working correct, but how can I activate multi recording or something like that... thanks

Set your inputs on your channel strips and make sure you have one set to input 1 and the other input 2. Arm the 2 audio tracks(the "R" in the track header. They will turn red and flash), then hit the record button.

How can I record a microphone and software instrument at the same time in Garageband 10.0.1? It seems I can record one or the other, but not both at the same time?

I am trying to record a vocal mic and a keyboard (using a software instrument) at the same time using Garageband 10.0.1. It seems that I can't record the mic input and the software instrument at the same time. I can record the mic input by itself, and I can record the software instrument by itself (if I don't have a mic input track created), but I can't record them together.
It seems like this should be an obvious thing to be able to do, but I can't figure out how to make it work.
Can someone help?
Thanks,
Kurt

you need to "record enable" both tracks:

Can I record in GarageBand from my Yamaha Arranger Workstation using its audio outputs?

I am a newcomer to Mac having used PCs for 27 years. In Windows I used Soundforge to record using the audio outputs or occasionally ACID using the MIDI outputs on the Yamaha. I prefer to use the audio outputs eliminating the need for soft instruments. My Yamaha has a multitude of voices which makes using soft instruments unneccesary. If recording using the audio from my instrument is not possible I will simpy continue to use Soundforge in Windows as I have been doing for years.

Never mind. I took a closer look at GarageBand and realized that it will not suit my usage.

Recording extra bits into MIDI regions DRIVES ME MAD - please help!

I hate Logic sometimes. (Logic Pro 8)
I record a simple part (region) using an AU plugin - a basic beat let's say. I play it in with a keyboard.
It's a 2 bar region and I then want to add a cymbal into the region while in 'piano roll' view (so I can see where to add it) - so I hit record and 1) my view of what's already been recorded goes blank and 2) Logic creates a NEW region!
Is there not a way that when in Piano Roll view - if you want to record extra MIDI stuff into a region - you can start recording and can still see what you already recorded in that region, and for your new recording to AUTOMATICALLY merge in with the existing region?
This drives me crazy and i've never figured it out - and it really stands in the way of me actuallly getting anywhere with Logic. I just want a region to stay as ONE region which I can keep adding bits to without creating loads of regions and I'd really like to be able to SEE what's already there as I add bits!
Can anyone help pls?

thanks a lot guys - BUT is there also a way for me to see the MIDI notes i record AS I actually play them in? (rather than when the looped area cycles round again) This happens in Reason and most other music apps - just annoys me it doesn't in Logic!
Don't know why that doesn't happen, I imagine it's the way Logic holds incoming MIDI data in a buffer instead of committing to a note value, but I don't know. Just tried the same thing in OEM version of CubaseLE4 and played notes became visible in real time.

How to record on GarageBand with a mixer

So hey,
after I've solved my problem with how to connect my mixer to my mac, there's another problem that came out.
I'm trying to record on GarageBand and when I do the first track all seem good. But then if I try to record to a second track it automatically records all the previous tracks as well. I have the output of the mixer to my external usb sound card's input and vice versa and on the mixers phones I have my speakers plugged in. Is something wrong with the connections I've made? Any help would be good! Thanx!
The mixer: Behringer Xenyx 802
The mac: MacBook (new)
The sound card: Hama C-media USB Audio Devise
The speakers: Logitech z323

Because the vocals are being recorded as a real instrument you wont be able to record it and drag the track to in a way extend the sound as you can with other tracks. Other tracks you can as they are already installed in the garageband database. If you want a longer real track then the only eway is to play or sing for a longer amount of time.

I'm in cycle mode, and 'merge' is clicked in preferences. However, when I record, my previous track data keeps getting overwritten. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong. Interestingly, I can still see the data in the region.

since you didn't specify, are you recording in a single take?

I'm trying to record audio into my iPad2 using GarageBand and an iRig, but I can't monitor my tracks at the same time as recording, meaning if I lay down a drum track and attempt to record guitar, I can't hear the drums while recording. Thoughts?

Hi, I have this exact same problem. I haven't been using an iRig, just a cheap USB-jack cable. I managed to do this with the first cable I bought, but since it broke I've been unable to find a replacement that allows me to hear the drums while recording. DId you manage to get over this issue? If so I would really like to know how. Thanks and best wishes.
