Changing Key Commands In Logic 8

whatsup guys?

I have LP8 now and was trying to sync a delay to a track using precise numbers ie "51", but whenever I push the "1" key, it triggers screenset 1.

the problem here, is that I want to change the key commands for screensets to use a key modifier ( or delete them, I don't need the screensets really with LP8)...BUT whenever I click on the key command in the preferences it will not let me alter them. I can't change the key used to trigger the command nor the modifier.

anybody else having this problem?

I Can't Change My Key Commands

I just initialized my key commands by accident. Now I'm trying to set my key commands back to the way I had them. When I input a key command that I want, it doesn't work!!! Does anybody know why?

I originally had "enter" control the stop function. i can't do that anymore. i also used "v" to access the automation view, but that doesn't work either. I'm really frustrated now.

all of this started, because I was trying to use "record toggle" and that didn't work so I tried to change its key command and now I'm ALL screwed up.

Are there certain keys that cannot be used for key commands? if so, why was I able to use them before.

if anyone could help, I'd be so grateful.

Missing Aif Files?

hey everyone, I'm new to recording with logic express (and on macs).

Right now I'm just using it to record vocals. I import the audio file of the beat. Then I record all of the vocals in the other audio channels. everything is fine when I'm done, oh yeah, I'm saving the songs to an external harddrive. When I go to open Logic back up, and open the previously worked song it gives me the message: "'name of beat.aif' - what kind of file is this". Then when the song opens up the imported audio file (of the beat) is grey and does not play. When I try to re-import the beat ( the same way I did originally, the way that worked the 1st time) it gives me the same message.

Whats going on? can anyone help me out? I don't know if I'm saving the songs in the wrong manner or something. Thanks to anyone that can help me out.
