Why can't i mark anything but one second intervals in the re

[dataDyne]

I remember i could mark the track at any place and delete any lenght of audio, why can i only mark in one second intervals now

Look at the bottom left of the Audacity project window and make sure that "Snap to" is not checked.

Go to the Preferences (press Control+P), then select the fifth tab, and you should see 3 drop-down menus, click the middle one and select english.

Thank you very much, one last comment/question:
Why does the slider tool on the left that controls playback speed not save that speed automatically to the file when i adjust it

You can use Effect > Change Speed to apply a speed change to the track waveform.

Have you tried Help > Manual (in web browser)?

Oh, well that's a lot easier than applying those chain things that some website told me to do in order to change speed and such.
Thank you and adieu
