Lock / Protect Tracks Button?

Hi everyone. I have a few tracks with the "lock" button selected, and I noticed if I try to change something on the track/regions in the tracks via a command (for example, change the region color so regions colors match tracks, or change the NAME of the regions to match the tracks names, etc.) I get a dialog box that the track is protected/locked and no changes can be made, with a CANCEL button. I hit CANCEL, and the CHANGES HAPPEN ANYWAY! What's the deal with this button, does it only work on/prevent certain commands? Let me know, thanks

I experienced the same strange behaviour.
I would call this a bug or a not well implemented feature.
Send a feedback to Apple.

  • Problems locking a track...

    Hi.
    I'm trying to lock a track in GB 3 and I get an error - Result Code -40. I have no idea what this is and a search of the discussions and the web haven't helped.
    Any ideas out there?
    Thanks
    Bob

    I thought it was probably some kind of write error because it happened just when I hit play after clicking the lock button. I guess when one hits play for the first time after clicking the lock button the track gets written to disk.
    I saved to disk as archive and got the -40 error in the process. I also get it when I open the file. It does seem like the file's getting saved though.
    I've repaired permissions and verified the disk with out any problems. I've also saved it to a disk where the permissions are ignored. No luck.
    Something's hinky with writing to disk I'm sure.
    It's not terribly important, and I can't spend much time on it, so I'll leave it at that and come back to it later. I'm in the middle of a clean install of tiger. Maybe that will help.
    Thanks for the help, and I'll post when I get it worked out.

  • HT1384 My lock screen/power button on my iPod Touch is broken, and I need some assistance.

    As the title suggests, I can not use the lock screen/power button on my iPod Touch, it is broken. I can use Adaptive Touch to turn the screen on and off at will, and also turn my device off. But if I turn it off, I don't know how to get it to turn back on. Could I just plug it into a charger and turn it back on, or would I need to plug it into my computer? Please help, in a few days I won't have access to it for 9 weeks, I need immediate help.

    If you power off the iPod, it will turn back on if you connect it to a charger like a wall charger or a computer. I just checked with a charging source to confirm. I knew it did it with a computer.

  • Is it possible to lock the volume buttons on my iPod Touch?

    Something is forcing the volume down button on my iPod down all the time. Because the volume is constantly being turned down the volume square is always up in the middle of my iPod. Rather than having to replace the whole volume down button or the whole iPod, is there a way to simply lock the volume buttons on the side of the iPod?

    There is no way to lock them. I would work through the general troubleshooting outlined here to rule out the possibility of a software, although it sounds more like a hardware one.

  • Ipod Touch 5.1.1 update lock and volume buttons wont work.

    So I just updated my ipod touch 4G to the ios 5.1.1 version and ever since my volume and lock buttons aren't working/responding. The funny thing is, a lot of people are posting the same question but they get the same answer from the same person that says to hold the lock and home button when everybody specifally states that the lock and volume buttons aren't working so those answers are useless. I tried resetting all the settings to factory from the settings menu but still the same problem. What should I do? Is it a bug for every new updater?

    Try changing the DNS server on the iPod. See:

  • IOS 7 is preventing my ford car sync working. The skip track buttons no longer work. Any help.

    iOS 7 problems with ford sync. Skip track button no longer works.

    Sorry, I used the wrong term in my original post. I don't mean to say "mute" my phone, but meant lower the volume!
    Should have read: "In Smart Actions, if I want to lower the notification volume on my phone to 13% when I'm in a meeting it only adjusts the volume for calls - not text or email notifications! What the heck is the point of adjusting your phone volume if it doesn't affect all the notifications!?"

    I have no idea why it stopped working.  But why it failed does not matter.
    Take it to an Apple Store or Authorized Apple Repair Center and have it assessed and see what it would take to get it working.

    Got a black screen on the iPod Touch 4th Generation. Tried restoring it and holding the lock and hold buttons but this didnt work. Do i need a brand new screen?

    If you successfully restored to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem. Could be the screen or something else.

  • Locking/Protecting cells

    I am new to this forum, therefore I apologize if I cross the rules here as I am sure this has been asked before, however I can not see a search feature on my screen to search past posts.
    I am trying to lock/protect certain cells, rows and columns so that poeple are unable to change them in the template. Is this possible in Numbers? I know how to do this in Excel... hoping there will be a way in Numbers

    Numbers does not have an equivalent feature to cell-locking. The closest that you can come to this is to lock an entire Table. You can get creative and divide input and output between unlocked and locked tables, and you can abut the tables to make them look like a single table. Next best is to protect the formula cells by placing a clear shape over them and locking the shape.

  • I Cannot Figure this out!  How Do I Lock a Track In Adobe Premiere Pro?

    Hi everyone!
    I'm from the Final Cut Pro world, getting acclimated to Adobe Premiere Pro and am wondering how do I lock a track on the timeline?  The audio and video are synced which is what I want, it's just one thing I want to change within the audio.  However, when I select and delete this one portion of the audio, it deletes the video as well.  This seems over complicated to perform.  Any help is much appreciated.  Thanks!

    Here you go.
