I suggest you check for any hard constraint that your schedule might have...
contraint like "Expected finish" can have an impact to an activity's duration.

HTH..

Is this a Primavera specific question?

I am making the assumption you are using MS Project. It sounds like you have the automatic calcuation set to Manual. This does not allow MS Project to "think" until you hit F9 or turn the option back to Automatic.

Go to >Tools, >Options, >Calculations, and examine Calculation Mode.

It is my recommendation to leave this set to Automatic so the tool can work for you.

Hope this helps!
