I've got a header, after which I want to insert
* Header
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: [2013-03-15 Fri 11:22]
:END:
I've tried C-c C-x d and C-u M-x org-insert-drawer. Sometimes C-c C-x d
works (offering only [RESULTS] which creates empty :: ... :END:), sometime
it does nothing. C-u M-x org-insert-drawer sometimes offers me choices,
sometimes doesn't telling me I should use C-c C-x d. Once I do get
:PROPERTIES:
:END:
C-c C-x p offers me choices (I choose :CUSTOM_ID:) and seems to work
properly, but again, sometimes does nothing after affirming prompting,
What am I doing wrong. I simply want to have a timestamp property for each
header. Can anyone advise me how to create this :PROPERTIES: insertion
behavior consistently?

`C-c C-x p' is the right thing to use for inserting properties.
`C-c C-x d' is for inserting custom drawers.

Mhh.. I can't reproduce the problem. Can you provide a recipe with
emacs -Q on how to reproduce this consistently?
Thanks in advance,
