I have an iMac with 10.5.8.
I have downloaded Audacity 2.1.1 ( it seems this is the only version suitable for 10.5.8).
I downloaded Lame from the correct page:
http://lame.buanzo.org/#lameosxdl
And I followed the instructions on the correct page:
http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/faq_installation_and_plug_ins.html
I went to Audacity Preferences/Libraries to locate the Lame file, initially Audacity finds the Lame file, and I clicked on the file.
But Audacity still will not export to mp3.
I also tried putting “libmp3lame.dylib” into the folder where I have Audacity installed. But Audacity still will not export to mp3.
Obviously I have tried restarting the Mac.
Anyone have any ideas?
