I'm using emacs 24.5.1 on ubuntu 16.04 on a Vaio x64 pc. earlier I ran the emacs tutorial and got through it completely no problem. Then I started playing with the "replace-string" command and now my Meta key no longer works so SOME but not all key commands. M-f, M-b, M-a and M-e work fine and so does M-x

But when I do M-> or M-< I get the following messages (see below). No amount of C-g'ing or hitting the ESC seems to help. What happened? How do I get out of it? How do I avoid getting back into this? Thanks!

user-error: No M-x tags-search or M-x tags-query-replace in progress [3 times] Quit [3 times] completing-read-default: Command attempted to use minibuffer while in minibuffer [2 times] Quit completing-read-default: Command attempted to use minibuffer while in minibuffer [2 times] user-error: There is no default tag
