Q: Why does Logic keep changing my loop selection?
Logic Pro X 10.1.1. I select a loop region of a track, but when I click momentarily on another track, or do anything else like click a mute button, suddenly the loop region changes to the whole track. Then I have to re-find the region I was working on. Very frustrating!
No sure if this is a new bug since I updated the version. I never noticed this behaviour before. Perhaps I accidentally changed a setting.
MacBook Pro, OS X Yosemite (10.10.3)

Most likely....
Trashing Logic's prefs is probably the quickest way of resolving such a problem... rather than spending hours trying to track down exactly what you accidentally changed or reprogrammed/reassigned
You can resolve many issues by restoring Logic Pro X back to its original settings. This will not impact your media files. To reset your Logic Pro X user preference settings to their original state, do the following:
- Quit Logic Pro
- In the Finder, choose Go to Folder from the Go menu.
- Type ~/Library/Preferences in the "Go to the folder" field.
- Press the Go button.
- Remove the "com.apple.logic10.plist" file from the Preferences folder. Note that if you've programmed any custom key commands, this will reset them to the defaults. You might want to export your custom key commands before performing this step.
- Remove the com.apple.logic.pro.cs file from the preferences folder. (Note this is the control surface settings file. You may need to set up your control surfaces again after deleting this)
- Restart the computer.
Note: If you cannot find any of the files listed, you did not follow the instructions exactly as written!
