"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?

    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.

  • How do I keep my installer from trying to update with Photoshop instead of installer? Quark can't update because the installer opens Photoshop which doesn't recognize the file and I'm not given the option to choose anything else.

    1. Sync wasn't intended to be used in that manner. You would be better off carrying around a USB Flash Stick with Portable Firefox for use on "strange" PC's.
    2. You could open the "Library" {Ctrl + Shift + B} and highlight all those bookmarks and then delete them all at once. But that would also delete all the other bookmarks, and it isn't foolproof. All another person would need to do it to '''''restore''''' a bookmark backup file that has your bookmarks. Beyond that, a new Profile could be created and then the current Profile deleted; but that's "messing with" someone else's computer - an action that is worthy of terminating a friendship over, IMO.
    And if that "public" computer was set up properly, Sync should have been disabled.

    If you used iTunes to get the photos on the phone, then use the same iTunes and uncheck the music you don't want and do another sync.

  • 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.

    Do Not Disturb and Notifications
    Push notifications appear in Notification Center and alert you to new information, even when the
    associated app isn’t running. Notifications vary by app, but may include text or sound alerts, and
    a numbered badge on the app icon on the Home screen.
    Turn off all notifications: Go to Settings and turn on Do Not Disturb. When it’s turned on and
    iPhone is locked, all notifications and calls are silenced, but alarms will still sound. You can set the
    following options in Settings > Notifications > Do Not Disturb:
    • Automatically turn on Do Not Disturb: Set the starting and ending hours for when you don’t
    want to be disturbed. iPhone turns on Do Not Disturb during these hours each day.
    • Allow some phone calls during Do Not Disturb: When Do Not Disturb is on, calls are silently sent
    to voice mail. To allow some callers to ring through, tap Allow Calls From. You can allow calls
    from your Favorites list or other Contacts groups you define. For information about Favorites,
    see Chapter 25, Contacts, on page 100.
    • Allow persistant callers to ring through: Turn on Repeated Calls. If the same caller (based on
    their Caller ID) calls you twice within three minutes, iPhone will ring.
    Turn an app’s notifications on or off: Go to Settings > Notifications. Tap an item in the list, then
    turn notifications on or off for that item. Apps that have notifications turned off appear in the Not in Notification centre

    "flying blind."
    "You totally lost me there, and I have no clue as to what your last question means."
    "I think I now know what you mean."
    Evidently language is of difficulty for you. 
    Perhaps the Oxford dictionary can provide you with your much needed “sensible, meaningful” content.
    According to the Oxford dictionary, a dialogue is to "Take part in a conversation or discussion to resolve a problem."  It also states that a dialogue is "A discussion between two or more people or groups, especially one directed toward exploration of a particular subject or resolution of a problem.”
    That IS the inherent nature of posts. A conversation is reciprocation.  Questions, followed by more questions.
    It is not difficult to understand.
    "how to ask your questions correctly for quicker and better answers" is best actualized by simply asking.
    Is it a Mac; is it not, etc.
    That IS sufficient.  That IS "quicker and better answers[ing]."  That IS what a dialogue IS.   And that IS actually what is "sensible," "meaningful," and "detailed." 
    The Oxford dictionary can best delineate and elucidate your lack of comprehension in what ACTUALLY “meaning” is.
    As well as what is "sensible" AND "detailed." 
    By the way, am I being repetitive.
    Still confused.  Let the experts that do not require much explanation respond with "quicker and better answers" for both "sensible, complete" responses." They are not "lost," "blind," or provide "incomplete" drivel.

  • 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.

  • 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).
