Default Media items/tracks move together, Can't separate

Hello Newbie forum. Inspired by Frank Zappa's methods, I'm editing overdubs onto a preexisting live recording. In the middle of my editing sessions I experienced a problem: Any time I grab a media item or whole track, all the tracks in the project move together, and I am stuck just hitting 'undo' so they return to where they were. I don't know what button or setting I may have inadvertently changed on-the-fly, and it has completely stopped my project in mid-session. I cant find anything in the Kenny Gioia tutorials that addresses this specifically. Can anyone help me?

Sound like Ripple Editing might be enabled - which has three button states (disabled, per-track, all-tracks): https://www.reaper.fm/videos.php#NsSb1otziI0

Thank You Solger, it worked.

Another difficulty now: Trying to cut a section out of a long media item, but I am unable to set a time-selection. Sorry if it seems dumb, but I am completely new to reaper. Any thoughts?

In general have a look at these videos:

Besides the Video section (https://www.reaper.fm/videos.php) additional info can also be found in the User Guide https://www.reaper.fm/userguide.php) .



If the info in the links doesn't solve the problem, can you please post more details or a screenshot about the issue (like what have you already tried and what isn't working, exactly).
