OK ensure that these things are selected. In Pt you can toggle between edit window and mix window with cmd+equal sign. Make sure you are in edit view when doing these editing types things as you described like selecting audio. switch to the edit windo in PT and ensure tht the following things are selected. You will most likely have to use the VO mouse click command instead of just VO+space bar. This command is VO+Shift+Space. In the edit mode cluster, make sure that absolute grid is selected. (or select shuffle mode if you want it to for example when you delete a selection, the audio after it automatically moves up and fills in the gap). In Cursor tools cluster, select the selector tool. Also link time line and edit selection should be selected link track and edit sselection should also be selected. In the Grid/Nudge Cluster you can click on grid value and change it from bars beats to minutes seconds, depending on your workflow. Yu will be able to see which one is checked and select the one u want to use. You seem to know who the seclecting items go with the p and down arrow and u can click on a track in the track list table to select it. Shift+semi colon will move the selection down on track at a time while keeping previous track selected, and shift+P will move the selection of tracks up one track at a time while keeping the previous one selected.
