Marquee selection won't delete

I'm not sure why but for some reason when I make a selection with the Marquee tool the selection won't delete in Logic Pro 9.1.5.
I checked preferences but couldn't find any to help with this oddity.
Any ideas or prefs that I'm missing?
Thanks,
Richard

Thanks for contacting the community forums, kscfire. I had a similar situation on my Android device. I was able to log into a computer to delete the email that kept showing a subject but empty body.
You can also clear the cache for the email http://bit.ly/UasC7T to see if that works. Once cleared, power off/on and check the email box again.
Worst case scenario, remove the email app and reinstall it.

Marquee selecting audio region then hitting DELETE crashing Logic

When I marquee select and audio region and hit delete it crashes Logic everytime. Is it a setting I have maybe unknowingly checked off that restricts the use of marquee? It happens when I marquee just audio AND audio+blank space. How am I supposed to trim as I go along?
OK, now it's working, but I'm not going back to the original place where it was happening. Is it possible that one little piece of audio gets corrupted?
This has happened a couple times just like this...I'm halfway through posting a message on this topic and it self-corrects, but then when it happens again I'm kind of scratching my head again.

After further troubleshooting I've realized that the suspicious audio file that prevents the project file from opening is actually not corrupted itself. I can still play the audio file in other media software like Quicktime, etc. with no problem.
This leads me to believe the problem opening the project file lies solely with the corrupted 'documentData' file.
Does anyone have any ideas about how I could somehow open this project file and delete the reference of the troublesome audio file from the project's audio bin?
Well... it really sounds like the project itself is corrupted, that's one of the reasons all project files won't load from a certain point on.
Try this.
Reboot the Mac.
Open the Applications folder and boot Logic from it's icon.
As soon as the Logic Logo/graphic window appears on the screen hold down the control key. You will see a message pop up that says something like "Launch the Core Audio Driver" there will be yes/no choice available... select NO.
Go to the File menu and selct "open" go find your project file and see if it will open. If it does.. delete the audio file in question... however.. I would also look at any plugins you recently installed and are possibly using in this project...this sounds more like a plugin problem rather than an audio file problem, but that's just a gut feeling.
Anyway, if it opens delete whatever you suspect and save under a different name.
Reboot Logic and see if it can load the project.

Delete Marquee selection

I can not figure out what's different but in some projects I can't delete a Marquee selection and in others I can. When I make a selection and hit the delet key, nothing happens, the selection remains. In other projects, the selection is deleted as expected.
Is there a secret setting somewhere that I can't find?
Thanks,
Richard

Just click on the marqueed area, the region then gets split at the marquee points, then hit delete.

My iPhone 5 won't delete videos I've recorded.

I tried to do the instructions Adobe gave me but when
I put in the disc that came with my mac and hold down
C when it restarts it takes me to the screen to do a
fresh install.
At that point go to the Menu & select Disk Utility - I can't remember exactly which menu but you should be able to find it easily... there isn't too much there
I went into the disk utility through the Apps folder
and for somereason the option to repair isnt
highlighted and it wont let me click it. I tried to
repair permissions/verify but it doesnt change
anything. I looked at the info and it says the volume
can be repaired, but it wont let me.
You can't Repair the disk the system is currently running the OS from - That's why you have to boot from the Installer disk (or some other start-up disk). Repair Disk addresses directory structure issues - totally separate from what Repair Permissions does.

ITunes under Vista won't delete my songs

Hey guys.
I've recently updated to Windows Vista, and I'm running iTunes 7.3 with an iPod Nano.
Previously on my XP machine (with some ancient iTunes, 7.1 maybe?) I was able to select a track in my library, and either hit the Delete key or right-click and select the Delete option. This would spawn a dialogue - do I want to keep the files, or move to recycle bin (or cancel)?
Now under iTunes, when I delete a file, that dialogue is not there anymore, and deleting a file only removes it from the library view, rather than from my hard drive.
As an added piece of information, I was able to upgrade a purchased song to iTunes Plus. When you do this, there's a dialogue of similar nature offering to move the old file to the recycle bin or to keep it. This dialogue appears, but when selecting recycle it does no such thing
It's worth noting that all my music is in my iTunes Music folder, not anywhere else. I understand there can be a problem where if your music is not stored with iTunes, it won't delete the files. I don't believe this applies to my situation.
I only really noticed this by happenstance, and now I have my music collection full of tracks I don't want anymore, but no effective way of getting them back in. Why is this?
Well, that's peculiar thing #2. Previously I used to be able to just re-add my iTunes music folder, and iTunes would helpfully trawl through and add music in, ignoring tracks that already exist. It no longer does this - you can add the folder, but it creates a duplicate for each song that already exists. These duplicates are unrated with no previous play information - it's as if iTunes doesn't agree that they're the same track.
I'm wondering if these problems are related - if iTunes in some way is able to play my previous library just fine, manage ratings and so on, but is in some way confused about whether they're actually in the iTunes folder. XP and Vista have different file paths (C:\Documents and Settings\ in XP, C:\Users\ in Vista)... would this have something to do with it? I suspect that there's a Junction (like a hard link, but in Windows) in place to redirect C:\Documents and Settings\ to C:\Users\, but this behaviour is not unversally supported cleanly.
Is there a way of editing my library details to include the correct pathname if that's the problem?
Man, sorry about the long post But it's really bugging me, and obviously I don't want to have to re-add and re-rate 22 days of music...

Ok I think I fixed it
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93313 describes that you can gank the binary file, and re-import using the XML document.
The trick is of course to:
1. Close iTunes
2. Gank the binary file
3. Search and replace the music locations in the XML
4. Start iTunes
5. Import the XML file
This works, but there are some caveats (need to resynch the iPod, etc.). But yay, my files are once again being deleted.

I deleted time capsule files that were old, but now they won't delete from the trash

I deleted some time capsule files from the drive I am using for time machine. It placed them in the trash, but it won't delete them. It is asking if I want to delete only locked files or if I want to delete all files. I have tried both, but they are still showing up in the trash. It won't remove them. Does anyone have any suggestions, as I do not know what else to do. By the way I tried holding the option key and clicking empty trash and that did not work either.

Are these files being used by Time Machine. If so, this is how to delete files from a Time Machine backup. You can not delete them using Finder. Mac 101: Time Machine
Deleting data from a Time Machine backup
To delete all backups of one or more items from a Time Machine backup, follow these steps:
Click the Time Machine icon on your Dock to enter the Time Machine restore interface.
Click on the item you would like to delete. Command-click to select multiple items.
Control-click (or right click) the highlighted item(s) and select "Delete All Backups of..." from the contextual menu, or select "Delete all backups of..." from the Action Item menu.
Authenticate with an administrator password when prompted.
Important: Do not use the Finder to move to the items to the Trash, or to move or delete items in your Time Machine backup repository. The folder containing your Time Machine backup repository is called "Backups.backupdb" and is located on the external disk or Time Capsule you have chosen in Time Machine preferences.

AT LINE-SELECTION won't be triggered when I use SET PF-STATUS?

Dear All,
I have a simple program that shows a list. My program has AT LINE-SELECTION event. I also use a GUI status for my list.
When I ran my program and double clicked a line, the AT LINE-SELECTION event was never triggered. Later, I deleted the line that registers the GUI status (SET PF-STATUS.... ). When I ran it again and double clicked a line, the AT LINE-SELECTION was triggered.
Therefore, I conclude that AT LINE-SELECTION won't be triggered when I use SET PF-STATUS. Is it true?
If so, is there any way to make my list responds to double click event when I also use GUI status?
Thanks in advance,
Haris

Restart the computer then delete it.
Uninstalling Software: The Basics
Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash. Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder. Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space. If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application. In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder. You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder. You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder. Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
Some applications may install a startupitem or a Log In item. Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder. Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences. Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab. Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the "-" button to delete it from the list.
Some software use startup daemons or agents that are a new feature of the OS. Look for them in /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or in /Home/Library/LaunchAgents/.
If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term. Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default. You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, EasyFind, instead.
Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder. Usually with the same name as the program or the developer. The item generally has a ".pkg" extension. Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.
There are many utilities that can uninstall applications. Here is a selection:
    1. AppZapper 2.0.1
    2. AppDelete 3.2.6
    3. Automaton 1.50
    4. Hazel
    5. AppCleaner 2.1.0
    6. CleanApp
    7. iTrash 1.8.2
    8. Amnesia
    9. Uninstaller 1.15.1
10. Spring Cleaning 11.0.1

Firefox crashed. tried to delete old to install new. won't delete. tried to replace old with new, but tells me i need to close it first but it's not open

Fire fox crashed. I deleted it and installed new version, it worked fine. Got an email with possible virus, so system restored to an earlier date. When I did this, it brought back the old firefox. I tried to delete it, but it won't delete. When I tried to download new version to replace old version, it says I have to close firefox first, but it's not open. What do I do now?

Hi jposes
Before installing the new firefox go to Windows Task Manager (Ctrl+Alt+Supr), go to the Processes tab and search for any "firefox.exe" (or firefox.exe*32), give a right click and select "End Process Tree". This should be enough to let you install the new FireFox.
Take care and hope this had been useful to you.

SMS texts won't delete

hi all...3 texts from the other night just won't delete at all, so my indicator for messages stays on...minor annoyance BUT since these texts got 'stuck', new texts don't show under the right date until i open them up...any ideas???

Check whether you've saved thoses SMS in you Saved Message Folder. Go to Messages -> View Saved Messages. If you find them there then delete them. If they are not there then you need to clear your SMS database.
To clear the SMS completely check following steps:
Connect the BlackBerry smartphone to the computer.
Open BlackBerry Desktop Manager.
Double-click Backup and Restore, then click Advanced.
From the list of Device Databases, select the appropriate database. For your problem, select SMS.
Click Clear.
In the Warning window, click OK.
Remember to have if you clear your SMS as mentioned above then all the SMSs will be lost and can't be retrived unless you have a backup.

Duplicate messages - mail won't delete

I'm not sure if this is a mail problem only or if there is something else going on but I'll start here. I've got several messages in triplicate that won't delete from my POP account (the same problem occurs for single messages also). Messages appear to delete from "inbox", "trash" and "junk" but reappear when mail is reopened.
I'm also having the same problem with itunes, I delete my library but when itunes is reopened songs in my library reappear. I have also tried to print my itunes library but get the message "The itunes library file cannot be saved. The disk you are attempting to use is full". When attempting to print from my X-Pad I get the message "Error while printing". Also another odd thing I've noticed is that my desktop "clock/calender" disappears after startup, I have to keep putting it back on. So far these are the only problems that I've noticed, these problems just occured yesterday.
Help would be greatly appreciated, Thankyou

Don't need the system memory or RAM.
Are you sure your hard drive has only a 10GB capacity?
Select your hard drive and use Get Info via the Finder. This will provide Capacity and Available information.
If you have only a 10GB capacity hard drive (which is actually slightly less than advertised capacity which is the same for all hard drives), this is likely the cause of your problems.
OS X makes generous use of Paging or Virtual Memory which uses available free hard drive space when utilized. I regularly use anywhere from 6-9GB of virtual memory without a lot of processor intense activity and I have 1GB of RAM.
See Problems from insufficient RAM and free hard disk space.
A 10GB hard drive capacity may have been adequate for OS 9 but it isn't adequate for OS X unless you install OS X and applications only and store all data on an external hard drive.
If you have a 10GB hard drive capacity, you should seriously consider purchasing a much larger hard drive if you plan on using this Mac for a while longer.

Are you trying to repair disk permissions or repair the startup disk?
You posted here with hard disk issues?

Did you try the suggestions on that thread???????

You can verify the hard disk with the Disk Utility app in the Applications/Utilities folder but you cannot repair the disk that way. You must boot from your install disk to do that.
*"I had errors the other day that disk utility wouldn't fix and so I booted up from the cd and did the whole safe boot thing and ran disk utility. It said the errors were repaired. But they keep reappearing everyday,"Are you trying to repair permissions or the startup disk?*
