I'm using Emacs 24.5.1 on Windows 7 with org-mode 8.3.4.
 
Unfortunately, bulk actions in the agenda do not work as expected:
If I mark several lines in the agenda,
then Shift-B and then d for changing the deadline of the tasks.
 
I then can enter the date, but it only affects the first of the selected agenda lines, the others stay unchangend.
 
Is this a general bug in org-mode 8.3.4 ?
 
I have some configuration code which is loaded during startup of emacs which I took from various internet sites,
so I am not sure if something in there might cause this behaviour, but I also do not know what keyword I'd have to search for in the configuration files to find the code which causes it..
 
Kind regards
 
Martin

Some ideas on what to try, in order to narrow down possibilities: * Does 'B s' (reschedule, instead of re-deadline) fail in the same way as 'B d'? How about other bulk actions? * How about if you unmark only the second entry, leaving 1,3,4... marked, in case the problem is specifically the second entry? * Do all the entries have a deadline to start with? (Shouldn't make a difference, but might be useful to know). * Have you ever used 'edebug'? That would be my next step.

Hi Phil,
 
thanks a lot for your help!
Your questions helped me narrowing down the problem: it occurs, when a *Org= Note* Window open, which lets me enter a note about the change.
This is the case for changing deadlines, but it is not activated for schedu= led dates in my configuration.
 
So that means: if I have 3 entries which already have a deadline and I try<= BR> * (marking all) Shift-B d
and then choose a date,  I can enter the note for the first entry and = indeed there is a message
"Acted on 1 entries, skipped 2 (disappeared before their turn)" i= n the minibuffer.
 
I found a corresponding bug report - it seems to be fixed (but I installed = the stable version):
