PT suddenly made my tracks out of sync, help!

[babakdm]

Hi,

HELP!!!! After closing and saving a session I had worked on for 3 days, I opened it back up to review something and all of a sudden, the tracks were not in sync (e.g., keys are not in sync with Strike and vocals). Also, some empty spaces between recordings, on the same track, appeared gone and the separate recordings (on the same track) were now linked/attached. And, other similar weird stuff... I closed and reopened and noticed that everything appears to move right after the session loads (in other words, it seems to load normally and then the aforementioned happens). I tried opening a different saved session and that changed too! I'm wondering if somehow I accidentally pressed some key on my computer keyboard or on my Axiom Pro that selected an option that makes this happen to my tracks. How can I fix it? Hopefully, it's just an option I need to change, maybe under Time Operations (hey, I'm a newbie!). HELP, PLEASE!

THANKS!

Bobby

Pro Tools M-Powered 7.4 (with updates, I think cs3) with a FireWire 1814
