Strange new quirk when changing sample rates...

Timing is everything. I'm working on a deadline at midnight on the east coast of Canada. Logic 8 has been working fine all day, editing hundreds of little sound fx and dialogue for a videogame. Suddenly, I open a new project for the final 50 lines of dialogue, change my sample rate from the usual 48kHz to 44.1, as all the files I'm importing are as well. I attempt to "add audio files" in the bin, select the group I'm after, hit Done and... nothing happens. One of the 50 imported into the project. And the icon at the top of the Arrange page is greyed out. It was fine when things were still set for 48, but as soon as I change to 44.1, it greys out. I haven't changed anything all day, so... I've tried restarting, creating new projects, changing the sample rate at the menu instead of the transport, importing one at a time (it still only seems to want 1 file imported). All I can come up with as a solution is to reload Logic on my tower (MacPro, 2.8GHz, quad-core, 4 GB RAM).
But for now, I'm about to get a crash course in Audacity. Hopefully it's simple, because I'm barely awake...
