Help, the trunk (boot) won't close! (archive)

I tried to shut the trunk by being more forceful in my closing. I tried pushing the remote button one time. I tried pushing the remote button two times. I tried pushing the back manual button on the trunk. As I write the trunk will not shut properly and hence the alarm will not set.
If you had this problem, how did you fix it? I know, take it to the dealer, in the meantime, what?
I should add that I put something into the trunk which required I drop the driver's side back seat and then put it back into place upon removal of the item. I don't think it has anything to do with it but the "something" was a racing seat for my Miata. Does the X have a record of being jealous?
