Looping in Pro Tools question

Hi every1

Started using Pro Tools for trance production lately (7.4) and I can't seem to find how to keep the loop in the arrange page stable, meaning - every time I stop the playback, the looped section is not highlighted anymore (the markers in the global tracks section are gone too) and I have to reloop it before I press Play again, until I stop playing back etc.
Another occasion when the loop disappears is when I make selection with the hand tool (highlighting single regions).

I think that basically the question is if I can disengage the looping mechanism from the currently highlighted selection/s.

I'm sure there is a simple solution, something to tick in the preferences that is called in some completely different name....

Thanks in advance.
          YEEEEES!

I'm not that familiar with protools, but it should be in the first page of the options window or a keycommand...not quite sure tough           https://soundcloud.com/hazak

Press N, then highlight your selection
(N = Timeline Marker follows playback)
you can also find that under preferences... should be unchecked... now it should be looping and keep the loop. If not let me know...

That is assuming you have enabled Loop play in the transport window...

The Grabber Tool is used to highlight single regions and move them ... press ctrl +3 to change it into what you are looking for...
