In particular, you don't need to stop/start your current emacs: you can start a new one as John described specially for this problem, do what you need to do to reproduce the problem and kill it afterwards. It does take a little time to come up with a minimal init file that sets up things, but there have been examples posted on the list that you can adapt to your situation - once you have one, just keep it around and modify it slightly for each new situation. In any case, the trouble here is that it does not seem to be reproducible: at first sight at least, it seems to be related to your particular setup, so nobody else can debug it. And one more thing, now that I remember it: always provide versions of your OS, emacs and org-mode. It is possible that the particular version you are using exhibits the problem but earlier or later ones don't. Of cource, if you update regularly, that is less of a concern, but if you provide the version, then other people can try it with that particular version (thanks to git, it's easy). -- Nick
