Ctrl + Backspace to "Delete and Move" on Macbook with no backspace key

Yes, I searched for this. Yes, I know Function + Backspace = Delete but that doesn't work in Garage Band when trying to "Delete and Move" to delete part of a clip and fill in the empty space. How do I do that?
While I'm asking ... how do I fill in empty space without dragging a clip if I'm not deleting anything (confession: I didn't search for that).

  • "Delete and Move" option not given

    I want to chop a section of audio. If I highlight a section and type command-x, it deletes the audio and leaves a blank section. According to the help menu, "delete and move" is supposed to chop the section and merge everything -- I want to do this to eliminate a section entirely. But when I highlight a section, the "delete and move" option is gray and can't be selected.
    There must be a simple answer to this but I don't know what it is.
    Thanks.

    Well, it would be easier if you could just do it in the Track Editor, but it doesn't work that way. (You can only delete a portion of the Region there, not have it move automatically).
    Select the Region. That's one mouse click, whether it's an hour of audio or ten seconds. Then simply place the playhead where you want, do a Split (Cmd+T), move the playhead, do a Split, then click in a blank area (to deselect), click on the region to be deleted, and Ctrl+Del.

  • In trying to edit a track - I want to "Delete and Move" the track to automatically fill the area that I deleted - However, after selecting a section to delete - the "Delete and Move" option is grayed out. How do I fix this?

    Thank you for your attempt to help me. I appreciate that.
    I think I figured out how to fix it-
    I found that if I only delete a small amount at the beginning and at the end of the section that I want to remove - and then highlight that section - Then (and only then) does the "Delete and Move" function work to remove the unwanted section and automatically close the gap between the surrounding sections. I was trying to select a whole section and could only delete it - and then manually move it.
    Problem solved.

  • I'm running Safari 6.0.5 - Mac OS 10.8.4 -- when I load my gmail the block around the DELETE and MOVE tabs are not usable - press buttons but nothing happens. ???

    I'm running Safari 6.0.5 - Mac OS 10.8.4 -- when I load my gmail the block around the DELETE and MOVE tabs are not usable - press buttons but nothing happens. ???
    I can see the block (flashes) and the buttons are no longer usable.
    I have Empted Cache but doesn't seem to help.

    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
    Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
    If you wish, you may be able to salvage the malfunctioning extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. Its settings will revert to their defaults. If the extension still causes a problem, remove it permanently or refer to its developer for support.

  • Help understanding "delete and move"

    I've recorded a 20 minute Podcast, basically one long stream of me talking. I'm trying to figure out a way to cut out all the "ums" and "uhs", but moving the rest of the audio stream over so there isn't a big pause where I've cut out the audio.
    The closest I can find to perhaps doing that is "delete and move" but it doesn't seem to work when I highlight the "um" waveform in the editing window. Delete and move isn't an available option there. If I just "delete" the section, it doesn't close the gap and I have to move the whole subsequent wave file manually to the right to close the gap.
    Anyone have an idea how to make this a little easier?
    Thanks!

    I need to to this with my guitar recording input at times. You need to utilize the split and join tools. If you were to place the time-line at the beginning of the "um" or "uh" and command T to split the section which you highlighted green, then move the time-line to the end of the "um" or "uh" and command T as well making sure it is still bright green. Then click off the section to unselect green it and then click on the sectioned area and highlighting it, delete this section making sure this is the only area bright green to delete. Then bring the two sections together and join them. Joining requires that the two sections be touching and with bothe sections highlighted or selected, command J and now the deleted section is gone and the time differential with it. From here, play around with pause length and insert pause periods as will. This seems rather verbose but that is my way of explaining a purely visual thing.

  • Adobe Pro XI deletes and/or replaces letters with blank spaces or an x

    How do I fix the problem where Adobe Pro XI deletes and/or replaces letters with blank spaces or an x.
    This is really annoying to have to go back to each thing I type into a document and re-choose the fonts to get them to be correct.
    Thanks for your help!

    Adobe is a company, not a program... do you mean ACROBAT Pro?
    If yes, this is the Premiere Pro video editing forum, you need to go to http://forums.adobe.com/community/acrobat

  • How can I delete and move up instead of down?

    When I delete an entry the next entry below the one I deleted appears. I would rather have the next entry above the one I deleted appear. This is because I start at the bottom of my undeleted entries and move up my list. How can I do this? Many Thanks, TM

    I don't think you can.

  • I'm not too sure what is wrong. I use to be able to watch my HD shows and movies on iTunes with my Macbook pro, but now I can't. Help?

    Yeah. Like the question states. I use to be able to watch my TV Shows and Movies in HD, but now it ain't working and I blame Maverick!!! UGH! LOL But anything helpful to suggest? That'd be awesome.

    I apologize for the confusion.  This was literally the only option on Apple's "Contact Us" section that I was able to access.  I assumed that Apple's clear intent to have me go here instead of speaking with someone in live time, and the fact this is on the Apple website, meant I could get some advice...  Both over the phone and online they require information I need to see my screen to provide so those are not options.  I tried to bypass this when calling through Skype.  Some lady who didn't know what was going on, who I waited a good while to speak with, put me on hold; I gave up after 30minutes of waiting to speak to somebody again.
    I've stumbled upon a few tricks to help me get through this problem, but I'm at a loss.  I need this phone to work until late December.  I need more tricks.  So yes, it's worth understanding.  Knowing what is going on will let me Google it and work with it, if nobody here is willing to help...
    And yes, it IS a glitchy phone.  It has been a glitchy phone for a long time.  Long before this. But completely unrelated issues.  I was assuming this wasn't just a glitch but something maybe somebody could help me understand.

  • Why is the "Delete" and "Junk" buttons repleased with the "Archive" button (Only for one of the accounts)?

    Hello,
    I must have changed a setting, so that the "Delete" and "Junk" buttons above the mail pane have disappeared, and an "Archive" button has appeared instead. This is true only for my mail through Gmail (IMAP), but when i open a mail from my other account (POP), i still see the "Delete" and "Junk" buttons.
    How can I fix this?
    Thanks in advance
    Ayse

    Try this:
    Select an email that does not show all the correct buttons in the header information section above the actual message.
    right click on the blank area just above 'Other Actions', you should get a popup saying 'Customise'.
    click on 'Customise'
    a new window opens.
    you can drag items onto that header area, but I would suggest you click on 'Restore Default Set' button and then clickon 'Done' button.

  • Ripple Delete And Move Markers Too?

  • Lost ability to add, delete and move email addy's in Address Panel

    Not long ago I downloaded Snow Leopard 10.6.3 from disc and then upgraded to 10.6.8.  Perhaps a coincidence, but now I see I'm no longer able to use Address Panel as I previously had.  Specifically: I recall there had been + and - buttons to add and delete email addresses, but now I don't see these ~ perhaps I'm looking for the wrong thing?  Also, I can't drag and drop an addy from one group to another as I previously had.  I'm using Mail 4.6.
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  Other than the Snow Leopard download, I've no idea what may have caused this problem.  Or perhaps I simply don't know where to look ~
    Thank you!

    My bad ( : - 0 !  I figured this out:
    It's Address Book ~ not Address Panel ~ that does the trick.
    Thanks!

  • My partner has been given an iphone 4 from her father, I have manged to delete and move to her email but need to know how to change the phonebook i.e delete it and change the apple i.d...any ideas?

    Hi All
    My Partner has been given an ipone 4 from her father.
    I have managed to delete his email and set hers up, what I need to do is delete his contacts entirley..would this be able to be done if she connected her ipone to the computer and made herself an apple I.D or is it a matter of reset ?
    Also some pictures on the phone she would like to keep..
    Many thanks

    If her contacts are available in an Address Book app on her computer that is supported for syncing with the iPhone, she can select the supported address book app on her computer under the Info tab for her iPhone sync preferences for syncing contacts. She should be provided a merge prompt or replace the contacts on her iPhone with what is available in the address book app on her computer. Select the 2nd option.

  • How to upgrade AND move between platforms with different Endians...?

    Hi, all,
    I have two databases - one of 500Gb and one of 50Gb - that are currently running on 10.2.0.4 on AIX 64-bit. They are Production systems.
    I have to move them to a brand new Linux (RHEL 5.6 - 64-bit) server that will be running 11.2.0.2.
    For test, I'm OK with this being done with Data Pump. But for the eventual move to 'New Prod', this will result in hours' worth of downtime and it's a business-critical system, so I'm trying to mitigate that as much as I can.
    I was, naively, hoping to use RMAN to both move the databases from one box to the other, but also to upgrade them. I figure I would do the following (as per Metalink 369644.1) as I have a Recovery Catalog, etc, etc:
    Install the binaries on the New Prod server
    Connect to the RCAT and restore the database and recovery to a PiT
    Manually upgrade the database by putting the DB into STARTUP UPGRADE and running the catupgrd.sql
    Unfortunately, I didn't realise the Endian was different between AIX and RHEL (as per 1079563.1). Oops.
    It doesn't look like I'll be able to use Transportable Tablespaces (as per 243304.1) either without first having to migrate the data across as a 10g DB and then upgrading.
    So my options appear to be:
    a) Data Pump and suck the outage up
    b) Move the data using Transportable Tablespaces to 10.2.0.4 and then upgrade to 11.2.0.2.
    Are there any other options? I have hopes that a logical standby would work in this instance a la rolling upgrade, but suspect that the different O/S AND the different Endian would scupper that idea...
    Mark

    Perhaps, I have more experience using concurrent exports/imports using the traditional exp/imp utility than using the parallel option on expdp/impdp. One thing you can do with exp/imp that you cannot do with expdp/impdp is export into a named pipe, start a remove copy of the named pipe to the new server, and then start importing from the named pipe on the new server so that you are importing while still exporting the same objects. We use tables= exports when we did this back when the tables= parameter could only handle 99 tables. We had a separate export for every large table and then a set of exports for 99 tables for each of the other tasks ran 6 to 12 concurrent processes.
    One thing to look at is historic data. Potentially some tables can be moved in advance of the majority of the application objects and replaced with synonym to remote objects.
    Truely static tables could also potentially be moved in advance even if only a day or two before to reduce the number of objects to be moved.
    Build the new database in noarchive log mode to save some processing and switch it over and immediately back it up when you migrate.
    And Yes, if the two platforms appear in the view name I gave you then you can use transportable tablespaces with the rman conversion step. Instructions for using rman to do the conversion are in the rman manual.

  • Losing music and movies while syncing with the new itunes 7!

    Several times I have lost my movies and music when I have connected my ipod and it synced with itunes. I synced earlier in the day (or the day before in other cases) and it worked fine. I didn't change any options on the ipod. After I lose the files I click on my ipod in itunes and the sync check boxes have been unchecked. when I recheck the sync boxes it will reload all of my stuff but it is a hassel, especially if i'm in a hurry. I never had this problem with the earlier version of itunes. What is making it lose the files when I sync?

    Are you syncing it to more than one computer? If so it is operating normally. If you want to sync to more than one, you must opt to Manually manage your music. If you opt to do this, then be sure you have a backup of your music somewhere other than your iPod as you might have to restore it.
