Timeline cursor has a Left/Right Arrow with red diagonal line

Community Beginner ,
Nov 14, 2010 Nov 14, 2010

I am trying to edit a timeline in Premiere, but the cursor changes to a Left/Right arrow with a red line across it.  I've never seen this cursor before in CS4 and it is preventing me from moving clips in the timeline.

I tried to take a screen grab to show you all, but the cursor is always hidden in the final grab.

I resorted to drawing the curson in MS Paint.

I feel like such a dumbass.

I have searched high and low on Google.

Please help

Try pressing key "V" when in the timeline.

You may have selected the time stretch cursor.  "X"
