Why can't I record a new track?

Hi. I'm getting reacquainted with the new Garageband and laid down an acoustic mandolin track. Now I want to lay down an acoustic guitar track. But no matter where I click to activate the new acoustic track, the recording seems to go OVER the mandolin track (which I also can't hear). Why can't I record a new track where the guitar is indicated, and why can't I hear the mando as I do this? In the previous version of garageband this was straightforward. Thanks, david

We need to know more details. 
Have you set the "Record enable" button in the track header?  (Track > Track Header > Show Record enable). Which track is enabled for recording?
Have you set an input in the Smart Controls > Info pane for the track?
Also:
What kind of track did you use? An Audio Track? A Guitar Track?
Did you create the Guitar track by duplicating the Mandolin track? Then Crate a new track for your guitar from scratch. Dplicating tracks will link them.

  • Why can't I enable an audio track for recording? (It won't let me)

    I want to record VO but PP won't let me...
    On Mac OS X 10.10 Yosemite in System Preferences:
    • Sound Input is set to C-Media USB Headphone Set (an Alesis usb mic...works fine for VO in Final Cut Pro 7)
    • Output is set to Headphone port
    In Premiere Pro CC Audio Hardware Preferences:
    • ASIO Hardware is set to "System Default Input/Output"
    • I have also tried "C-Media USB Headphone Set but this, too, doesn't work
    • With "System Default I/O" selected, Output Mapping is set to "Adobe Desktop Audio" (only choice), and shows:
         • "Built-in Output: Headphones 1
         • "Built-in Output: Headphones 2
         • "C-Media USB Headphone Set: Front Left
         • "C-Media USB Headphone Set: Front Right
    all four of these have a couple of square icons to the right.
    In order to record VO, I first need to "enable track for recording" in the Audio Track Mixer. There are no in or out points set in my timeline and the tracks are not locked or solo'd or anything. So why can't I select the audio track I want to use to record VO? I click it but there is no response. I just want to know why this software is not doing what it's designed to do.

    is I learn still around -? That was VERY HANDY!

  • CRM 2011: when auditing is turned off, why do existing Audit records lose "New Value"?

    Not sure if this is by design (if so, would love to know why!) or if this is a bug.  Let's say I have auditing turned on for Accounts.  I change the phone number in the Main Phone field from 555-1111 to 555-5555, and an audit record is
    created showing the Old Value (555-1111) and New Value (555-5555).  Great.  Now I turn off auditing. The system goes back to the audit record that had previously been created, and modifies it so that it shows the Old Value (555-1111),
    and inserts an icon into the New Value field indicating auditing was turned off.  The tool tip for that icon states "Auditing was stopped and restarted.  The new values for the fields that changed during this period cannot be identified or recorded."
    First of all (minor picky issue) auditing hasn't been turned back on yet, despite what the tool tip says (says the same thing whether or not auditing is turned back on).  But the real problem is
    why the existing audit record's New Value would be removed... why would that happen?!?  We're talking about a historical update.  It really did change, and the system knew what it changed from/to, so why would the system remove that new value
    from the audit record?  Logically I would expect that any changes made
    while auditing is off would not be logged, and that once auditing is turned back on, Old/New values would correspond to whatever was/is in the system at the time that any new audit record is created, so there may be a disconnect between an older audit
    record and a new one (old record's New Value not matching the new record's Old Value, because changes were made while auditing was off). And it's quite apparent when auditing is turned off, because an audit record is created stating "Auditing Disabled". 
    Any ideas if there's a logical reason why it would do this, or if this is really a bug that Microsoft needs to fix?  We have a client with a business need to periodically turn off auditing while integration updates run between CRM and another system
    (otherwise hundreds of thousands of unnecessary audit records would be created).  But if they're going to lose audit data every time they disable auditing, the auditing is worthless.

    We wouldn't ever temporarily turn auditing off on purpose... it's happening when we import managed solutions.  We have vendors with managed solutions that contain system entities such as Contacts.  When importing their solution, it momentarily
    turns auditing off on those entities.  The only evidence of this is audit records indicating "Entity Audit Stopped", and of course the loss of all the most  recent "new value" on all audit records.  The interesting (?) parts of this are:
    1. When importing the managed solution, the recommended option to keep all existing customizations is selected.  I would think this would include the audit settings on the entity, but apparently not (sort of... see #2).
    2. As soon as the managed solution is imported, in addition to creating an "Entity Audit Stopped" audit record on relevant entities and wiping out new values, it apparently turns auditing back on, yet there's no record of this (in customizations, the entity
    still (or once again) indicates auditing is enabled; but on records for that entity, there is no "Entity Audit Enabled" record.   
    So, now it's on to working with the vendors, to dig into their managed solutions and see if there's a way to prevent this!

  • Why can't I post a new topic in the Leopard discussions.

    The option is available in other Apple discussions, but for some reason it's not an option for me in the Leopard area.
    I just want to ask a simple question about why Firefox is now launching every time I restart my computer, but don't want to do so in a discussion about Final Cut or iLife or any of the other forums where posting a new topic is an option because that would be bad etiquette. At the same time, I'm not given much of an option.

  • Why can't I get a new ringtone (song) on my iphone 5c ?

    Why can't I get a new ringtone (song) on my iphone 5c?

    Did you purchase the ringtone or make it yourself by taking an excerpt from a song?
    If taking an excerpt from a song, it must be 30 sec or less. Once you get the 30 sec clip, you have to create an AAC version of the clip. Open the folder with the AAC version of the clip and change the file extension to .m4r I believe. Then double click the new file and it will automatically be loaded in the "tones" folder. You can then open the "tones" folder in iTunes and drag it to your iPhone which is connected to iTunes on your computer.

    Hi
    It was a simple fillcolor with opacity. It is as if it doesnt respond. I can clic the symbol for a new layer, but nothing happens. I've dragged the style from appearance-box, to symbol for new style - Nothing. I've dragged the box directly to Graphic Styles - again - nothing. I've tried with my CS4 that worked. But not in CC.

  • Why can't I install the newer version of Flash when I already have the older one?

    My virus software is turned off. I have Flash currently on my computer. In the troubleshooting page I can see the clouds in the picture so I know my current flash is working.  I went into the internet settings for add-ons and the flash is currently enabled.  Why can't I install the newer version of Flash? I tried the run and save option and it still didn't work. I can see the installer in my downloads folder. But, all I get is a black blank box that does nothing. What else can I try to get the installer to actually install the updated version of flash?

    Try the offline installer(s)

    You are talking about the forward, back, mail and trash can icons in the Notes App - correct?
    I've gone through restarting it and followed the instructions from the person last week.
    Have you restarted the iPad - is that what you mean? Have you quit and then restarted the app? Quit the app, and restart the iPad. It's worth a try.
    Double tap the home button and your recent apps will appear at the bottom. Hold down on the Notes app icon until it begins to wiggle. Then tap the minus sign to quit the app. Then tap the screen. Now restart the iPad.
    Carolyn explained this above (restart) but here it is again....
    Hold down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and slide to shut off. Hold down on the sleep button until the Apple logos appears then let go of the button and the iPad will restart. See if that helps.
