Simple, yet not so. How can I just edit out part of a track.  Help says select the region in the timeline, but doesn't seem to be able to perform a most basic function of cut and paste

Hi folks, anyone out there know how to select a region in the timeline so I can delete just part of a track.  I am making a soundtrack and want to fade in and out mp3's that I drag onto the track.
Thanks.
I feel dumb.

  • I inserted a mini CD (3") and it will not eject, how can I get it out??

    I inserted a mini CD (3") and it will not eject, how can I get it out??  I tried a little shaking, and restarting and holding the mouse pad down.  I heard the spinning but still cannot eject or read the disc.

    Short of taking it to a repair shop for extraction,  you can shut it down and try shaking the devil out of it.

  • My CD is not ejecting how can I get it out?

    I am unable to eject CD, how can I eject it manually?

    Force Eject a Stuck CD or DVD
    Synopsis
    A CD or DVD disc can become stuck in your Macintosh. It may not be appearing on your desktop or could be causing the computer to lock up if the computer cannot recognize it properly.
    Solutions
    First try the normal methods to remove the disc. Drag its icon to the Trash can in the Dock or select 'Eject' from the File menu.
    If you are running a virtual machine, e.g. VMFusion, ensure that the CD is disconnected from the virtual machine. This will sometimes allow the CD to now show up in Mac OS X.
    Shut down the computer and start up whilst holding down the mouse button. This may take some time, but keep your finger on the mouse button right up until the disc comes out or the log-in screen has appeared.
    If you have Toast Titanium installed on your computer, choose EJECT DISC from the menubar.
    Sometimes you can successfully use the eject disc button in iTunes even if the disc is not visible to the Finder
    Open Disk Utility and choose the disc you wish to eject in the left-hand pane, then click on the Eject button.
    Some Macintoshes have a paperclip hole that you can insert a straightened paperclip into, manually triggering the eject mechanism.
    Open Terminal and type "drutil tray eject" to eject the disc/tray, and "drutil tray close" to close the tray.
    Restart the computer while holding down Command-Option-O-F, to enter the Open Firmware prompt. Type "eject cd" without the quotes, and press return. The disk ought to eject. To start into OS X, type "mac-boot" without the quotes. Press return, and the computer will continue with the startup. (This will not work on an Intel Mac. There is no Open Firmware on Intel Macs. )
    If your computer has an eject button on the keyboard, restart the computer holding down the Option key. When the startup disk selection screen appears, let go of the option key and press the keyboard's eject button.

  • Hi, I am user iPad and I do not know how can attach a file into email e.g. CV.  Thanks

    Hi,
    I am user iPad and I do not know how can attach a file into email e.g. CV. 
    Thanks

    You attach files within the app that creates the file or within the app that the file is saved. For example you email photos from within  the Photos App itself. Typically there will be an action icon within the app - an arrow icon many times - you tap on that to bring other options like Share - then Email.
    Attachments must be mailed within the apps themselves.

    Having the app is irrelevant.
    The ONLY thing that matters is whether "Find My iPhone" was enabled on the missing device before it was lost/stolen.  If it was not enabled, there is nothing that can be done.

    I have a problem with my ipad. Before I can make online documentation but when I updated my iOS, I can no longer make notes. How can I fix this?

    What does "online documentation" mean exactly?  Are you using the Notes app to try to create notes in iCloud, for example?
    If so, that should still work in iOS 7.1.
    If not, please tell us specific symptoms of what is (or is not) happening.

  • How can I delete only one part of my xml file?

    Hello,
    I stored more than 100 users in only one xmltype column. For instance
    Create table agro(users XMLTYPE);
    ... and I inserted all users inside
    INSERT INTO agro values(XMLTYPE
    ('<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
    <authentication><users><user>
    <name>cocoon</name>
    <password>cocoon</password>
    <role>admin</role>
    <title>Mr.</title>
    <firstname>Walter</firstname>
    <lastname>Cocoon</lastname>
    <company />
    <street />
    <zipcode />
    <city />
    <country>DE</country>
    <phone />
    <fax />
    <email />
    <bankid />
    <bankname />
    <accountid />
    </user>
    ... another user, etc.
    </users></authentication>'));
    Now I tried to delete only one part of this file. For example all persons with the name"cocoon".
    I used for this target the following statement:
    DELETE FROM agro agro
    WHERE agro.users.extract('authentication/users/user/text()').getStringVal()= 'cocoon';
    When I execute this statement, Oracle DB delete all users and not only with the name "Cocoon".
    How can I delete only one part of my xml file?
    Kind Regards
    M R

    This the expected behavoir. You uploaded a document containing multiple users and then asked XML DB to delete any documnet that contained a user with the name in question. The problem here is that you are creating a mega document that contains an aggregation of user documents but then trying to work with individual user documents. This is a bad idea.
    In general XML does not understand the concept of a collection of documents. It can only operate on one document at a time. Hence the tendancy to aggregate individual documents into a single larger document. Once you have an XML database, you can perform operations on collections of document, as easily as you can perform operations on individual documents, so the need to aggregate the individual documents together disappears.
    If you store each user document as a seperate document then your delete will work as expected.

  • When I cut and past text from Firefox to Microsoft Works I get an error stating 'Out of memory, close applicantions and restart windows'. This does not work. When I had IE I never had this issue. Help!

    When I try to cut and past text from Firefox to Microsoft Works I receive an error that says 'Not enough memory, close applications and restart windows'. This never works! I never had this issue with IE! How can I fix this issue?

    If the crashing only happens with other peoples projects it could be for a variety of reasons. There are tons of asset references saved in the library (the location every item was imported from) and much more. None of those locations will exist on your system and internal complications may simply happen, especially with any runtime shared assets.
    If possible you should consider adding more system RAM so you can multi-task. RAM is extremely cheap. I'm assuming from a smaller 500GB HD and 4GB RAM that you're probably on a laptop however. Installing RAM is still usually pretty easy if you have the notebook manual (or grab it online). It typically involves just lifting the keyboard or opening a single panel on the bottom of the notebook but it varies greatly. At any rate, 8GB RAM would help you quite a bit. If you do, just make sure you get the correct type of RAM (again, in the specs in your manual).
    Even when you run out of physical RAM, Flash (like any other application) will still see more RAM based on the OS's swap memory setting (using available space on your HD as RAM). It will get much slower but Flash should see the total amount the 32bit OS can handle for RAM (it doesn't know if it's physical fast RAM or SWAP (fake) HD RAM though). If you open other apps with Flash they should also operate, but will also use swap RAM and you've probably noticed your HD crunching a lot while more apps are open.
    That said, I have a 4GB RAM in my older i7 lappie and have used Flash CS5.5 and CS6 on it extensively, with other applications open. Although my projects contain mild assets and mostly tons of code. No issues at all. I just think your heavy assets are crashing you.
    Either way, glad you got your work done. You're welcome and good luck!

  • JTree cut and paste multiple child and ancestor nodes not function correct

    Hello i'm creating a filebrowser for multimedia files (SDK 1.22) such as .jpg .gif .au .wav. (using Swing, JTree, DefaultMutableTreeNode)
    The problem is I want to cut and paste single and multiple nodes (from current node til the last child "top-down") which partly functions:
    single nodes and multiple nodes with only one folder per hierarchy level;
    Not function:
    - multiple folders in the same level -> the former order gets lost
    - if there is a file (MMed. document) between folders (or after them) in the same level this file is put inside one of those
    I tried much easier functions to cope with this problem but every time I solve one the "steps" the next problem appears...
    The thing I don't want to do, is something like a LinkedList, Hashtable (to store the nodes)... because the MMed. filebrowser would need to much resources while browsing through a media library with (e.g.) thousands of files!
    If someone has any idea to solve this problem I would be very pleased!
    Thank you anyway by reading this ;)

    You need to use a recursive copy method to do this. Here's a simple example of the copy. To do a cut you need to do a copy and then delete the source.

  • Can not cut and paste in 10.5.5 in on user profile but other users fine

    Hi, all,
    We have an 24" iMac running 10.5.5 (with all latest updates). Pretty simple machine, nothing fancy on it, just simple machine. One of the 5 users on it can not cut and paste, but other users can just fine. I can not find anything much on this. Any & all advice is most appreciated.
    Thank you.

    I very much appreciate the suggestion, I do, and please do not take this the wrong way, thank you again for taking the time to try to help me, but ..... I am not going to take a bazooka to this ant hill on this specific issue for this user.
    We're talking about hours & ours of work, maybe more, to find out why cut-n-paste (ie: Apple+C and Apple-V) do not work & that ought to be findable & correctable as a single issue with a single action.
    If it is not, then I guess that is another issue isnt it, and I'll be taking that up with the manufacturer.
    I continue to look for the "right"(tm) solution.
    +note to "discussions site webmaster": why would this form as the poster for the OS & model & details of their post again (ie: when theyre replying here, to someone else, as I am here). Do we think that those items have changed in the last hour since the first post? Not only does it ask again, youre required to answer them again since they dont "remember" the poster's first answers, since it would confuse everyone to not answer, since the defaults are incorrect (ie: the defaults arent even the latest stable software versions).+

  • Cut and paste in place ... not in place

    i cut and paste in place from a layer to an other and its not in the right place. it seems new since CS6
    i have multiple artworks on my file but i could do it since then. do you now how to not talke care of it ?

    Well that might be the way you wish it to work but it does not work that way and it was feature request that was overwhelming desired sothe behavior was made so that when you pasted in place it pasted in place relative to the active artboard.
    Thought there are global rulers there are still artboards and if someone wants more than one artboard this would be expected behavior.
    You have a choice of how you can do what you wish to do
    1. you can keep the artboard panel visible and simply select the artboard you want to be active that will not affect then selected object or layer and theen either paste in front or paste in back or paste in place
    2 select your object to be cut, then the object on the layer you wish to paste the object and then slect the original artboard by clciking on the edge of the artboard that will not change the layer you now have selected and choose one of the three paste options mentioned. this is actually a better choice because if you are working on that artboard you want it selected incase you need to bring it into focus.
    3. You can cange the focus to the artboard you want by selecting in from the artboard list at the bottom left of the document window.
    However though you are being a little cute about this it is I believe a feature request to be able to paste in place relative to the global rulers.
    And I do think this is an oversight which may have been deliberately done as it is possible that it might cause a problem at the moment to paste according to the global rulers and refcous back to that artboard, I can see where this might be a delicate coding issue and instead of a crash it would be better not tyo have it at all as I doubt many people would work this way.
    I think most people would work in a more organized way and want to keep track of what they are doing in a more conscious way and simply select the layer they want in the layers paneleven if it might be slower it would also be less prone to pasting on the wrong layer.
    We also just had some one post about selecting an object on the canvas and dragging the selection dot in the laayers panel to the layer they wandted it now to reside.
    They claim that is faster cut and paste, they actually said it did not work but it does.
    Here's the link to the feature request page.
    https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform
    Don't be surprise if they change this behavior and there are many users who do not like it.

  • Can't cut and paste in a web based e-mail service. (Not G-mail)

    I belong to a membership site that is coaching me on e-mail marketing. I want to cut and paste different bits of information and ad links etc. to emails that I am sending out through the site.
    For some reason, Firefox will not allow me to cut and paste when I am in this particular site??
    I can cut and paste in Microsoft Word and other programs with no problem. But when I'm on this particular site it's no deal.
    This is very frustrating. What can I do to resolve the problem.

    I've had this happen a couple of times. Seems it just gets a bit borked sometimes.
    Best thing to do is close Pages (or whatever), then do an iOS reset (hold power button then home button till screen goes blank and apple logo comes up and then let go).
    Cut copy paste should work again as normal.

    You don't have your numbers lock on or a shift key jammed or something do you? I have been using Lion since it was released and have never had nor seen an issue with the keyboard as yet. That's not to say you are not having one. Is it happening in particular programs? Have you installed any third party programs along the line like TypeIt4Me or such?
